The reply with which students were familiar during the '-40's developed significantly since 1920. At that time there was one professor of physical education for meng Birch E. Bayh Sr. For a quarter of a century there had been considerable interest in ath- letics. and strong teams developed occasionally. How- ever. there was no certainty that schedules could be arranged and carried out year-by-year. During the second Wcirld War. baseball was abandoned. However. basl-:etball and football were con- tinued. Due to the large naval training unit at the Teachers College, it was possible to produce a strong basketball team even during the war. The basketball team of 1042-1043 won thirteen of its sixteen scheduled games. In 1045 an athletic field of forty-seven acres was added to the facilities of the school through the gen- erosity of Anton Hulman. Vlr. The General Assembly appropriated 3550.000 to be used in the development of this athletic field. However. in N955 Indiana State sold the field to the Vigo County School Corporation and it is now the present site of Meadows School.

Good Tennis Prospects With New Coach This Year ISU Sil'l'DliN'l'S liffliilll. iN TEN- NIS L'l..KSSES--C0l'R'l'S QPRN THIS WEEK State Nornml is going to have n real-for-sure tennis team this season with a couch and everything. Frank Grove, who was one of the best tennis artists ever developed ut- the local school has been chosen as Coach and already has u few of the men work- ing daily. The Normal courts are not yet in condition and the army of students who have signed up for this branch of sport have not yet started their activities. Coach Grove announ- ced yesterday' that the courts should be in shape by the end of the week and hopes to have a large squad out. Athletic Director Birch Bayh has agreed to equip a squad of six men with the necessary equipment and there promises to be some lively com- petition among the various vvielders of the institution. Herman Boyle is the only member of last years team in school and several new men will have to be developed. Some of the other men who intend to try their luck are Meflanahan, TVoodruiT, French, Webb, and a number of others whose ability is unknown. The various literary societies have organized their tennis teams and will soon confer with Tennis Manager Helen Woody about arranging' a schedule. This tourney along with the inter-class affair should be staged before the first of May in order to give Couch Grove a chance to get a line on the material and give the varsity candidates a chance to prac- tice for the I. A. C. tennis tourna- ment which is hc-ld in conjunction -ivith the Truck meet. Over 150 students have signed up for time Tennis Gym class this term and a sue:-inl schedule will have to be :li-ranged in order to give all of the students n chance to put in the re- quired time. The courts at Parsons Field will also be put in shape giving the local school five courts for over 150 students, showing that tennis is nhout the most populzu' tgnine in school in which the whole student body may particinntc-.
