Tennis Tournament.

Yesterday afternoon the preliminary round and part of the first round in the tennis tournament were played off on the Jarvis Field courts. None of the matches were particularly close or interesting, as none of the best players drew each other, with the exception of R. C. Thomas '96, and R. T. Parke '98. Their match was rather one sided as Parke did not play the game he did last fall when he won the tournament. The scores were as follows:
