Coach Because there were no tennis courts com- pleted at Wilson the varsity tennis team was forced to meet opponents on three home courts, one located at Jefferson Park, another at Franklin and a third at the College of Puget Sound. Coach Mr. Bill Phillips used a chart to pick his first team of five players. Members of the team participated in challenge games against their teammates preceding varsity matches to gain high positions on the chart. The top five players who occupied the highest positions participated in the next varsity match. Each team played two double matches and five singles in a varsity meet. Opening the season, the Rams met the Bellarmine Lions. Constant pre-season practice paid off as the Lions fell to Wilson by a 4-3 score. On the following week the netmen were topped by the Stadium Tigers. George Kemp and Jim Mock brought home the only two points in their singles matches, making the score 5-2 in favor of the Stadium netmen. On the following week, Wilson lost to the Olympia Bears by a close 4-3 margin and was dealt a defeat by the Lincoln Abes. After four matches against Aberdeen, Sta- dium, Olympia, and Lincoln, the varsity team was a third of the way through the season with eight more matches on their schedule.
