TENNIS Supervised by Mr. Jacob Weber, the tennis team did its part to uphold the high standards of Eastside's athletic squads by winning eleven matches while losing only three. In conference competition the racqueteers were unbeaten, easily winning the title by trampling each opponent. Clifton and Garfield were each crushed twice while Central went to defeat once. The courtmen earned victories over the New York Military Academy and Englewood, split even in two matches with Montclair and relinquished its other defeat to Barringer. The racqueteers opened their season opposing Tenafly, and before they could get started, they were nipped in the bud 3 to 2. Regaining their stride in the next meet, they overcame Montclair by the same score, 3 to 2. This commenced a long string of victories, numbering eight, seven over Conference opponents and another over Kearny. The team hit a stone wall and sustained its first loss in nine meets when it was outvolleyed by Barringer 4 to 1. A week later Montclair turned in a 4 to 1 victory over the 'KGhosts. The mainstay of the team was the top seeded Sid Brown. Other performers were Hugh Sloan, August Katterman, George Cohn and Bob Rose.
