ARRANGE FALL MEETS
Michigan's Varsity tennis team led
by Captain Crane will swing into ac-
tion at 10 o'clock on Saturday morn-
ing on Ferry field against four pick-
ed men from the faculty.
It has not yet been determined who
will represent the Varsity but it is
likely that the men Captain Crane will
select to fill the other three places
will be chosen from the following:
Greiner, Martin, Kirkbalm, Vose, Slou-
iniski, O'Brien, and Elliot.
In order that all the men trying
for positions will have a chance to
show their ability in regular competi-
tion, meets with the Toledo, Saginaw,
and Detroit tennis clubs are being
arranged.
Dr. Angel and Captain Crane will
watch the men carefully in these
meets.
It is hoped that by picking the
squad in the fall the men who are go-
ing to make up the team will be al-
lowed to practice as often as they
wish, which was not the case when
40 wanted to practice on the four
cement courts which are ready for
