TENNIS If the interest that is being taken in tennis is any indication of the success it will have this year, undoubtedly the performances of the Blue racqueteers will far excel that of former years. Although this is only the second year that tennis has been given a place in Central's spring sports, it is rapidly gaining a high place of prominence and popularity. Over thirty men reported for practice this season, and a pleasing schedule of fifteen games was carded. The tennis season opened May 2 when the Tigers journeyed to the Bluffton Tiger camp. Games every week were scheduled from then on until June 2 with some of the best teams in the state. Preliminary tournaments to draw out material were held April 23-228, and both single and double matches were staged. Everyone received an equal chance to make the squad in this manner. Les Ortlieb, city champion, who coached the Blue players so successfully last year, was back again at the helm of the Tiger racquet wielders. Ortlieb deserves a great deal of credit for contributing so much to the establishment of tennis in Central. He has coached without compensation for two years, and is exceptionally Well liked by all of his players. Mr. Charles P. Turpin, a new instructor in Central, acted as faculty manager this year. The championship matches, to determine both single and double champs, were held May 21-25, and the winners had their names engraved on the Gardner trophy. Some of the fellows out for tennis were: Kitch, R. Gardner, Bob Gardner, Weiss, Hire, Heit, Dunn, Coar, Homscher, Paul, Crane, B. Weiss, Cowan, Pfeiffer, Salzer, Erb, Dick, Brause, Hill, Haffner, Kernen, Snyder, Weaver, Williams, E. Erb, McMahon. The schedule is as follows: May 2-Wednesday, Bluffton, there. May 16-North Side ftentativej. May 4-Friday, Marion, here. May 18-Friday, Goshen, here. May Saturday, Elkhart, there. May 19-Saturday, Elkhart, here. May -South Side, there.
