SEASON SQUAD PICKED
er
he With work. on the new composition
he tennis court, which is being installed
he on Ferry field, progressing at the
of same rate since it began last Satur-
day, the surface should be finished in
time for the early season Varsity
he squad to take possession before the
Easter holidays.
ill This year's early season squad was
he picked from the men who have been
showing interest in tennis while in
the university, and comprises only
m members of the senior, junior and
sophomore classes. The 'freshman
an squad will -take the courts shortly
ed after the holidays, and judging from
he the showing of the freshmen in the
All-Comers and All-Fresh tourna-
rs ments last fall, the yearlings should
ig turn out a good quartet.
he While the selection of the Varsity
he early season squad was confined to
the three upper classes, it was by no
means restricted to the former try-
outs for berths on the Varsity team.
he The chief basis of selection was the
to showing of the men in the All-Comers
n tournament, last fall, this being the
at purpose of the tournament. Men were
ed also chosen upon their showing in the
a- class tennis series of last year, and
he for their showing on the All-Fresh
squad for the season of 1914.
11 Graduation raised havoc with the
r- Varsity team of 1914, half of the men
ry on that quartet being lost through re-
of ceiving their diplomas. Captain Wi1-
son of last year's team has purchased
n- a motor ambulance, and before long-
k- will be at the front in the present war
g, in the capacity of a carer for the
in wounded.
Reindel suffered from a weak wrist
>e last year, which was incurred while
n winning the doubles championship of
d Detroit with Roger Rankin. His wrist
e is now in good shape after a winter's
rest, and the little leader of the Wol-
verine should be in even better play-
ing form this season than he was last
year. His doubles partner, Rankin, is
in college, and if he can show a re-
turn to form he should prove valuable
Predictions as to the make-up of the,
1915 team would be out of place, it
being too early in the season to see
.how the men are handling themselves.
It is also impossible to judge the eligi-
bility of the men before the first call
for candidates is made. With a fresh
team, inexperienced as it must be,
Michigan cannot expect to be a world-
beater this year, but the new court
will give the men about two weeks
more of practice than the team has
ever had before going east in any pre-
vious season. . The squad which
Captain Reindel leads this year should
at least make as good a showing as
did the 1914 team.

Mr. Lippmann has araet(rized his

as a treatise on the treil of the times.
It is no technical book of sociology or
