As this copy goes to press, the spring tournament is in progress. The winner of this tournament will be awarded the Kaler tennis shield. Eugene Heald, Herman Heald or Robert VVildenburg is expected to win this trophy. However, there are many other men striving for this award. Burke and Grantham are also considered strong contenders. The shield was won in 1928 by Collins Granger, in 1929 by Clyde Miller, in 1930 by Eugene Heald, and last year by Herman Heald. The outcome of the championship of the Michigan-Ontario con- ference, which was shared last year by Detroit Tech and Battle Creek, will undoubtedly result in the same manner this year, since it was im- possible for Detroit Tech to give Battle Creek a date. Their inability to do this may leave Battle Creek as champions of the conference. C 1 i 1 px ' Page One Hundred Eighteen
