Gott and Tennis---l 937 CHAUNER FITCH Again, true to the early tradition, the Weatherman at Bozeman did not see iit to give the boys, a chance to get in shape so that they could really show their best results in the state contests at Missoula. Tennis and golf is played Whenever the Weather so permits but in Bozeman Iupe Pluvius Went on a ram- page last spring. Never-the-less, the Bobcats did not do so bad. For the second consecutive year Chester Fitch and Milton Chauner repre- sented Montana State in tennis at the state intercollegiate meet at Missoula. In a hotly contested contest the boys from Bozeman were finally conquered by the superior trained lads from Missoula. Sam Barer and Clyde Rushing last spring represented Montana State College in golf at the intercollegiate meet held in Missoula in connection with the track meet and tennis matches. They showed well but the champion of the year be- iore was too much again and neither man placed. BARER RUSHING 171
