Crimson Must be at Best to Win Over Graduate Students

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

In Preparation for its match with Yale on Saturday, the University tennis team will face today in a practice contest a team composed of Law School and Tech students, and men who are ineligible to play on the regular team.

Coleman, who was a semi-finalist in the University tournament last fall, will face Ingraham in what promises to be the most interesting match of the afternoon. Kunkel, a law student, who won the University tournament two years ago, and who recently forced Ingraham to three sets in a practice match, will play against Captain Pfaffmann. Wheeler, Whitbeck, Smith, and Farnham all of whom have made names for themselves in the tennis world, will make up the rest of the combination.

Wheeler, who played for Yale last spring, defeating Guild in a closely fought three set match, will meet Cummings. The latter has developed fast this spring, and he has at present the swiftest service of any member of the Crimson team. However, he is inclined to be erratic, and the superior experience of Wheeler should pull him through.

Opposing such an array of experienced players, the Crimson will have to be at its best to win. In doubles, the University should have the advantage, having had more practice playing together.

Furthermore the last minute withdrawal of Davies, the intercollegiate doubles champion, should make things easier for the University players.
