Gymnast Tennis Team Meets Varsity Today

An underdog Springfield tennis team will provide the opposition in the varsity's home opener today. The first matches will being at 3:45 p.m. on the Soldiers Field courts.

The Crimson will be at full strength for the first time this season when it seeks its third straight win and its fourth of the year against two losses and a tie. A year ago today, the varsity was leading Springfield, 6 to 0, before rain ended the match.

Coach Jack Barnaby will go with the singles lineup which swept the Army match last Saturday. It includes Ham Graven, Captain John Rauh, Alex Haegler, Brooks Harris, Gene Mann, and Donn Spencer.

The doubles entry will depend upon the single results. If the match is already clinched Barnaby will be able to experiment with untried and inexperienced combinations. If the match is still in doubt, Rauh and Haegler will probably team at number one, with Gravem and Harris at Second doubles.
