N- TENNIS HARRY T. Moons, Ja. X Tennis at the 1928 CMTC was an unqualified , ., success. Forty men signed in the singles tournament A G and twenty for doubles, bringing out an unexpected ' amount of real tennis ability. . Robinson of Headquarters Company, rather of a as F 2 - g , darlc horse, loped through to the singles championship. N44 fboxg N 9- , Robinson, a southpaw, plays a steady chopping game, which proved too much for the powerful Recldig, Company GH, whom he defeated in a hard fought finals match, 6-4, 6-3. In the doubles, Hodgson of Headquarters and Robinson took the championship games from Ayres, Company Du, and Reddig, 6-I, 7-5. As Ayres, like his partner, is primarily a driver, while Hodgson formed a complement to Robinson's chopping style, the runners-up found the going tough, but settling down in the second set they forced the champions to the limit and provided the most interesting contest of the tournament. Lieutenant Perwein, assistant athletic officer, and IValdemar Ayres, tennis captain of Company DU, supervised the meet in a very admirable manner, overcoming many obstacles in arranging time and courts. BOXING In the camp boxing tournament, climaxing in the finals before a capacity crowd in the Post Gymnasium, Company A made the strongest showing with two champions and two runners-up, while GH came next with two champs. A few wrestling matches were interpolated in the program, Jicka of Company Cv, Iiverson of Headquarters and Brown of Company DH becoming champions in the heavy- weight, Welterweight and lightweight classes respectively. A full lift of winner: may be found under .4wardf,,. FENCING Fencing, attracted some unusual talent in the 1928 camp. The final competitions brought to the fore two fine exponents of each of the modern schools of fencing, the French and Italian styles. From these matches A. W. Burg, Company DH, emerged victor, with 'lessen of the Troop runner-up and Waring, Company AU, third. lloxmo TENNIS Wm-:s'ruNG Page Om' llundrezl Thirteen .. .......... .....- ....... .v.v.v.v.v.v.v...v.v..v.v.v.v.v.u

T H E S E N T I N E L f I? f THE TRACK MEET ' The loo-yard dash, the first event, was won by YVheeler, Company DH, with Porzell, Company C , i ,I , last year's champion, a close second. Kunitz, Com- , xflfb' pany D , finished third. I - Caldwell, Troop A , had little difficulty in win- ' Y, ning the mile run over the soft cinder-path in good time. . -,. ' Sademan, Company B , copped his specialty in the ,lf - S80 amid fast competition. In the 440, Huleson, Com- 765, , ' 4' pany A , left cinder-dust in the optics of Luthy, if-' kg-1,7 Troop A , and Kay, Company EM, in the slow fu, tempo of 57, just for variety.h Pgrzell, Company C , .,..-M ste ed in the 220, covering t c istance in 22 3-IO sec. , T pigfhe inter-company 88C-yard relay afforded by far the biggest tremble of the afternoon. Company DH speedsters upset the dope bucket by winning. Carson, Company EH, led the individual scorers by getting first in the high jump and javelin, a second in the discus, and thirds in the shot put and the hop, step and jump, collecting a total of fifteen points. The hopes of C Company were low until Lefty Donihi took both the hop, step and jump and broad jump events. The latter was won by a splendid leap of 20 feet, IO inches. These two firsts enabled CH Company to taste victory. TUG-OF-WAR, COMPANY Gi, JAMES B. MILES Upon being notified that I would act as coach of the tug-of-war team for Company GH, 6th Inf., CMTC, I immediately called for all members of Company GH that wanted to try for the team. ' Having a very short time before our contest against Company FH, I had no op- portunity to try all the students who reported and was forced to select the men according to my own judgment. The twelve men who were finally selected had little trouble in defeating Company HF . After a short rest we were matched with Company Cv and in them we found a much stronger team and had considerable trouble in pulling them in the allotted time, which was two minutes, but we finally succeeded. Our victory was the result of the strength and ability of our anchor man, Student Parr. Our next opponent was Company A',,the heaviest team of the afternoon, and they gave us our hardest pull, but the brilliant head-work of our team in holding fast while A Company used all their strength A gave us our third victory of the afternoon. i We were in the field at the scheduled gs R ' , time that evening for the finals and our Qt j spirits were for a moment somewhat dampened 4-R xl 3 ,' f by the apparent strength of Headquarters Q29 'D , .
