TENNIS PLAYERS as
TO SIOUX FALLS
MITCHELL CONTINGENT WILL.
LEAVE FOR STATE TOURNA-
MENT THIS EVENING.

Mitchell will be represented at the
state tennis tournament. which open
ed at Sioux Falls this morning,
by a .quintette of racquet wielders.
In the party going over on the Oma-
ha this evening r Ray L. Branson,
Paul M..aYbung. Eoren w. Weber,
Chester w. Ruth and w C. Hunter.
Branson and Voting, who won the
state court. championship of Iowa at
Des Moines last year, will enter the
doubles against the present holders
of the South Dakota title, Barton and
Phillips. 1t is probable that Ruth
and Weber also will be paired off in
the doubles tournament.
The singles tournament at Sioux
Falls this year should be one of the
fastest ever held. John Barton, of
Sioux Falls, the holder of the state
title before it was wrested away
from him by Ray Branson in 1910
and the two following years, will de-
fend His honors this year against
Barnson and some other strong en-
tries. Among these are Ralph Oil
yer and w. Stewart Gilman. Gill
man and Oliver have both been city
singles champions of Sioux City. and
Gilman is a former Iowa champion.
Last year Branson and Young did
not enter the Sioux Falls tuorna-
ment, playing instead in the James
Valley event at Aberdeen. The de-
cision of nBrason to enter the sin
giles; event again will mean a hard
battle over the nets, which will be
watcher closely by the tennis enthus-
lasts of Mitchell.
