7c»uU Members: D. DaVault, R. Kassebaum, A. Bernstein, D. Kavaljian, A. Ayers, A. Pahno, F. Machen, IF. Sanders, T. Hiers. Sponsors: Mr. John C. Bright and Mr. . L. Sebren. The Tennis Team One of the additions to this year’s Varsity sports agenda was tennis. The team got off to a slow start, but began to take shape in mid-April, mainly, because of the untiring efforts of Bill Jones, Mr. John Bright and Mr. Herbert Sebren. The men practiced for several days; then held play-off matches to determine who would become members of the team. Considering the lack of time, practice and good courts on which to play, the Saint Racqueteers made a good showing. They won their first match by defeating the Norfolk Division team at City Park. The team then suffered two crushing defeats at the hands of a star-studded Naval Base team. To wind up the season the faculty squared off against the squad and defeated them in a tough, hotly contested meet by winning four out of six matches. [ 97 ]

They lost their first match of the season to Maury High School, but tied Granby High School in their second match, and defeated a team from North Carolina to end the season.
