Tennis Courts May Not be Ready This Week; University Squad to Use Jarvis Tomorrow if Conditions Permit

Members of the University will not be able to play tennis on the Jarvis courts for at least two days. The University team may be able to play tomorrow. Frost and not rain has been the cause of the unfitness of the ground, according to John Sullivan, caretaker of the Jarvis, Holmes, and Divinity courts. Each morning for the past two days the courts have been hardened and stiffened by a night frost, only to thaw again in the afternoon. A warm temperature predicted for last night and today may mark the beginning of a thorough drying of the Jarvis Courts. As for the Divinity Courts, next in line of fitness, the most optimistic promise of Mr. Sullivan did not antedate next Monday.

The first courts to be made ready will be given over to the University squad, while the 1926 squad will receive second preference.
