Charles Allen, chairman OF the
physical committee of the Young

onstrating that he is in earnest and
is an indefatigable worker. The as
ISOLATION has secured the use of the
vacant lot on Blondeau street adjoin-
ing the Woolley building and just
opposite the Y. NJ G. A. building. A
tennis court is being prepared there,
and as early as 5 o'clock this morn
ing Chairman Allen was out with
Bert Merideth and two or three 9th
ers clearing away the large amount
Of wood and other rubbish that had
accumulated, and continued the good,
but very hot work until o'clock u.
m. Mr.. Allen will soon have team
at work, blowing up and scraping the
grounds preparatory to proper level
ing off, in order to place it in first
class condition to appear as one q
the most attractive tennis courts In
the city.
This court will be open to mem
bers of the senior department only
and from the suspicious beginning II
is expected that 1t will be ready fol
use next week. Its close proximity
to the Y. NJ. G. A. building, its baths
and other attractions OF the associa

very popular place for the votarie'
of the healthful and graceful game
