GREER IS CHAMPION.
Central High School Player Wins
Interscholastic Tennis Tourna-
r
ment at Deephaven.
Contest: Is Walkaway for Minneap.
oils Team Which Wins Ten Of
Fifteen Matches.

=
AS was expected, Central: high school OF
Minneapolis won the two individual prizes
in the interscholastic tennis tourname nt,
which was completed at Deephaven, Min
netonka Saturday. Greer Of the Central
team won the championship after a hard
three-set match with his team mate, Tel
ford Thompson, the latter winning the
prize offered for theerunner UP. ~:
The team contest, for the cup, offered
by the Minnetonka club, was walkaway
for Central, her men winning ten out of
fifteen matches, Three of CentraIs men
got thru to the semifinals, and Thayer was
the only one Of the four players on the
team who succunnbed to Representative
Of another school, Sam and Telford
Thompson both being put out by their
team mate, Greer.
In the semifnals Saturday, Telford
Thompson was pitted against Arthur Lam
pert of South high AS predicted in Sat
urdays j Q urnal, Thompson won easily,
Lampert taking only three games in the
two sets. Greer, who got into the semi
finals by default, was matched against
lively easy victory, altho Thompson forced
him to work for every point.
With Greer and Telford Thompson pit
ted against each other IN the finals, the
team cup and two individual prizes were
assured to Central, and the other schools
lost interest in the event. Thompson took
the first set, 81, after a hard struggle
Greer retained his nerve, however, and
had things all his own way in the next
two sets. Superior physical condition
helped him to win out.
The playing in the second seminal and
final rounds was high-class, and indicates
that the younger generation Of players will
furnish worthy successors in a few years
to the Beldens, Jayne, Hale and the other
veterans. Telford Thompson and Greer
Of Central and Rhodes Of the Mechanic
Arts school of st. Paul, as well as Lam
pert of South high, are players Of great
promise. S. Thompson also plays a clever
game, but is considerably handicapped by
lack Of height and reach. Saturday after.

coter1e OF Milwaukee business men to finance
the Minnesota Wisconsin football game, which

do not do things in business like manner and
hope to show the collegians the right way, by
turning in profits of about $1,000 for each team.
The plan is to arrange carnival following the
game which will attract football cranks from
all parts Of the state.
