TENNIS Under the very able coaching of Tom Sovlne the 1953 tennis squad ' s fall conference record resulted in 7 wins and 1 loss. Finishing second in the N.I.H.S.C. Eastern Division, the racketeers were led by five grad- uating seniors: Larry Yoder, Junior Durr, John Wea- ver, Edson Ulery, and Bob Backus. Two sophomores, Bob Sherman and Bob Yoder, both gained valuable experience and will see action next season.
