m n October 10, 1988 the new tennis center at Mercer was dedicated to Mr. Leroy Pcddy, ’loyal Mercer alumnus and supporter. The cen- ter was built becuuse the old courts had to be destroyed in order to allow construction of the new library. Mr. Pcddy is a successful restaurateur and en- trepreneur in Maryland, and he is a partner in several husinessses and real estate developments. He is also ac- tive in civic and community affairs, including service as a director of the Maryland Stale Fair and the Rotary Club. A native of WrightsviHe, Georgia, Mr. Pcddy gradu- ated from Mercer in 1928. Through the years he has been an enthusiastic supporter of the College of Liberal Arts and the athletic program at Mercer. It is because of his never-ending love for our school that we de- dicate this tennis cen- ter to him!
