OUTLOOK FOR TENNIS TEAM

Trials for the University tennis team will be held immediately after the spring recess, and prospects for a successful season are better than last year. W. B. Fraser-Campbell '11, is the only member of last year's team who has graduated, but A. H. Tomes '13 is playing baseball instead of tennis, and Q. A. S. McKean '13 and G. W. Wightman '13 are not in College this half-year. Four members of last year's team, however, are available, Captain C. S. Cutting '12, L. I. Grinnell '12, A. J. Lowrey '13, and J. R. Pratt '12, and in addition to these men all the members of the 1914 class team, which for two years has won the College championship, will be available. This includes J. C. Devereux, E. R. Hastings, G. B. Kayser, E. H. Whitney, O. Williams and E. H. Woods. Whitney is the present Intercollegiate tennis champion, and, if Captain Cutting maintains the form shown during the University tournament last fall, two of the places on the team will be unusually well cared for by these men. Other members of the University squad last year who are promising candidates for the 1912 team, are F. C. Gray '12, A. M. Hyde '12, N. E. Paine '13, H. G. Smith '13, and R. Tunis '13.

Plans for New Surface on Courts.

If the resurfacing of the courts with the newly compounded mixture of stone dust and clay is successful, it will help materially in producing a better team than last year, when a number of the men were handicapped by the change from the well-built courts which they had been using during the summer, to those on Jarvis Field.

Schedule for This Season.

Two slight changes in the tennis schedule are the introduction of a match with Brown on May 15, and a change in the date of the Minnesota match from May 27 to May 28.
