The University has joined with Yale, Princeton, Pennsylvania and Cornell in the formation of an intercollegiate tennis league. The colleges comprising the league have always played in team matches each spring, but, through the new organization, these matches will be placed on a championship basis next spring. The present plan was first proposed at the intercollegiate championship at the Merion Cricket Club, Haverford, Pennsylvania, and it was argued that the formation of the league would encourage spring matches. The new league will be affiliated with the Intercollegiate Tennis Association.
According to the proposed schedule of the league each team will be called upon to play every other team a match of four singles and two doubles, a four-man team being permissible, although where it is possible, six-man teams will play.
The officers of the new organization are: president, Sidney Thayer, Jr.; vice-president, W. Blair, Cornell; secretary, F. W. Hopkins, Yale; treasurer, Leonard Beekman, Princeton.
