XKVIEST, Crum, FACULTY BIANAGER Linux' deserves more credit than its record would suggest because the Hilliofvper racketeers played the leading tennis teams in this Athletic Sea. The old playmate, Storm of Fate, toyed with the tennis team as it did with the other athletic teams this year. Un the trip to Petersburg and Norfolk the owner and navigator of the schooner, in which the team was traveling, tried to save a quarter on oil and burned out the pistons on his craft, causing the players to go into dry dock in Norfolk until the ship could be repaired. VV hen there were no more ships to struggle with, westward the mariners sailed for many hours, and just before sunset they saw to the south a beautiful island covered with green palms and greener natives. As they approached the island, they saw on the beach twelve husky females playing volley ball. The game was interrupted while Fourbee and Peegee were hailed with lusty cheers led by two young Amazons, Henrietta Barker and Vera Dickens. Then Captains Bernice Lee and Charlotte Oppleman laboriously replaced their teams in perfect playing order. l22l
