As of yesterday afternoon the most interest had been manifested in the open singles tournament where 19 competitors have been lined up. Only one man had pessimistically classed himself as a novice racquet wielder for the closed tourney.

Closed doubles was also in the same undersold condition yesterday, with a single pair now the automatic winners by default. Six teams, however, are listed for the unrestricted class.
Despite the monkey wrench that the Business School vacation has thrown into the tournament schedules, Fradd hopes to get as much started as possible this week. On the brighter side of the picture on the courts yesterday, as far as non-competing amateurs was concerned, was the unaccustomed availability of courts.
