mAi ■ ■ ■ : AAiW UiPtlUtB Tennis is fast becoming one of the most popular sports at Concordia. In fact, it has already become so popular, that the two tennis courts which we have are far too inadequate to handle the number of players. Therefore, two more courts will be erected which will greatly imprcne the playing facilities. Two years ago the Student Bod decreed that tennis also be a representativ sport. Accordingly steps were taken to put the best possible team on the court, so that honors might also be gained in this field of sport. However, due to a late start, poor playing conditions, and a short season, the team was not as successful, perhaps, as many of us had hoped. Yet it was by no means a failure. The following men represented the first team: Roecker, Rinderknecht, Thalack- er.and Borchardt. On the second squad were: Pflug, Langbecker, and Windisch. Chet Thalacker upheld the position as coach and Roecker that of business manager. [88]
