V C71-.Q FLASHLIGHT ofanofzo v GIRLS TENNIS The girls who have aspired to represent Abilene High School this season in tennis are numerous and have shown themselves made of the very best stuff available. Although the whole team was not allowed to represent us in tennis this year, some of the members will be back next year to help us win the district and state champion- ships too. Evelyn Darden. Jean Shackelford, Gertrude McConnell, and Helen Rawlinson deserve much mention and praise for their untiring and unwavering work and support of the representatives. They have all been faithful unto the last. Oh Nita Carter and Loree Guffey. girls? doubles. won the Dis- trict Meet, after working diligently the whole year. This is Loree's first year to represent the high school. but Oh Nita has had the honor three times. The team won the District with the final score of 6-0, 6-Og 6-2, 6-2: 6-IZ. 6-2. They certainly deserved the loving cup with which they were presented. Earlyne Sivley, girls singles. won the District after a hard- fought battle with Juanita Adams. who represented Post in the girls' singles. Earlyne came through the meet with the final score of 6-2, 6-2. 6-I, 6-3: 6-I, 6-3: 9-7, 3-6.

One Hu dred Twent, V C7119 FLASHLIGHT M0199 v BOYS TENNIS Under the eflicient training of Coach Fatherree. Abilene High School placed a winning team in the field during the 1929 season. Coach Fatherree has been one of the leaders in making tennis a major sport. and it was mainly through his efforts that this sport has thus far advanced. Playing three schedule meets. the Eagle Tennis Club, com- posed of Leo Brady. Jim Carter, Lynn Kincaid, and Herschel Vaughan. won all of them. Victories were won from Sweetwater, Eastland, and Cisco: and the prospect looks bright for a District Championship and possibly a State Championship in tennis this year. The doubles team was composed of Jim Carter and Lynn Kin- caid. Leo Brady played singles, and Herschel Vaughan was the alternate. Although Herschel did not get to represent his high school in the district, he deserves much credit for his splendid efforts in behalf of the team and the school. BOYS RACQUET CLUB scene.. Ecu 5059
