FOURTEEN NEW COURTS TO BE OPENED ON SOLDIERS FIELD

Tennis facilities on Soldiers Field will be almost doubled this afternoon, when 44 new tennis courts which have been under construction for the past year in the oval space inside the Freshman track will be thrown open.

Mr. Dennisms Bright, superintendent of grounds and a squad of half a dozen men were busy all yesterday afternoon putting up the nets and rolling the courts. The new courts are surfaced with clay, and when once they have been rolled hard. Mr. Enright expects that they will afford a better playing surface than the 16 old gravel courts.

These old courts, several of which are located on the site of the proposed baseball cage will remain in use all spring, as work on the new cage is not to begin until next fall, it was learned yesterday afternoon from Mr. Fred W. Moore '93, graduate treasurer of the H. A. A.
