A recent poll of this year's twenty-fifth reunion class shows that tennis is the most popular of all games among the old Crimson grads. Of 592 members of the Harvard Class of 1949 who responded to a questionaire, 237 said they play tennis. Skiing was the second most popular sport among the '49ers, with sailing copping a close third.
