Tennis Prospects at Northeast

If Penn Charter Is defeated for the
lnterscholastic Tennis League champion
ship this year, we'll be the ones to do tho
trick said Russell Cloak, u member OF
the Northeast High School tennis team.
yesterday afternoon. Cloak. who plays
first singles. Is optimistic about the
Archives chances of winning the title.
Penn Charter has lost it's two best
players in G.. Il. ,Phngst. who was de
feated only once last year, and Dick
Myers, Captain-elect. VINO mas quit
school" continued the Archivc star.
with these two men gone, | believe
their strength Is deprecated about 50
per cent. Now as for our team. we
have all Of last years squad back. Cap
tain Kinkade will play fourth singles
Cohan, "A lind of last season. will no
doubt play second singles, and Grouu-
Quist, captain OF the track team. will
take care of the third singles and my
self first In the doubles we have Joic
Ray and Slifer. who burned the league
UP during the end of last season."
Northeast appears to have excellent
material, but Cloak probably doesn't
know that 10y March. the New Jersey
State indoor champion, and Soaring Will
, son, who formerly was the indoor title
holder of Philadelphia. are students at
Penn Charter and who, with 5. 5. Pen
mock. Jr. one OF the best of the younger
players in this section. should have an
other pennant-winning team.
Paul V. Magee, the former Camden
High School and Camden Y. NJ. e. \.
star swimmer. is now stationed at Fort
Slocum. n. Y. as a member OF the coast
artillery. It is probable that Magec will
be unable TO compete IN any of the
