PLAN NET TOURNEY
Y. NJ. C. A. Also To Have Big Swim.
ming Glasses This Summer.

Tennis and swimming are the two
sports which are receiving paramount
attention at the Y. NJ. c. A. in Topeka
now.
According to statements by Physi-
cal Director Mum of the Central Y
the three Y tennis courts at the cor
ner of Tenth and Lane streets are in
fine shape. Forty-eight players have
membership in the tennis club of the
Y. NJ. c. A. and a special effort is now
being made to enlist recruits for
the game.
A tennis tournament for Y players
will be held on the local courts some
time the first part of July. The four
high men in this tournament will be
sent to Wichita in August to play in
the state tennis tournament there. The
tennis courts and tournaments are in
charge of a tennis committee COM
posed of Director Mum, Ralph jerks
and Warren Turner.
The aim of the Y this summer, aside
from tennis activity. is the teaching
of every Y. NJ. c. A. member in the
city to swim. And those who swim
will be offered special inducements to
use the Y tank for improving their
strokes. Glasses will be installed in
the Y within a week, and competent
instructors will be in charge. Regu-
lar classes are now being organized
both for non-swimmers who would
swim and for swimmers who would
swim better

has been whirled back years and years

life that had passed with Mother

with them come the lost loves of the

merry as they did before the first
faint rays of learning dulled the joy
of early childhood.
