Tennis Schedule. of West
Virginia University in
Making

MORGANTOWN, Dec. 6. The
big feature of the West Virginia
University tennis schedule, which
Is nov being arranged by the Unit
.versity athletic authorities. is the
proposed eastern trip. With three
games already arranged and three
moro pending this eastern jaunt
seems practically a certainty and
there Is every reason to believe
that the Mountaineer netmen will
appear on the courts OF several OF
the larger universities next spring.
According to the announcement
matches have been arranged with
Yale, Pennsylvania and Rutgers.
The great showing OF the Noun
.taineer court team last sprinP
brought them into prominence
throughout the east and for this
little difficulty has been on
couutered scheduling games with
teams OF the Yale and P~ennsylva-
mia calibre. 1t is understood from
a good source that Yale is always
anxious to have West Virginia
teams on her schedules and never
hesitates when approached by the
Mountainous. Games arc also
pending with Princeton, Lehtgh and
Columbia, thus filling out the week.
OF course, II the six games under
consideration are all scheduled it
will be a heavy strain on the Var
sity netmen, but the trip as planned
will not necessitate any big jumps
and this will give the squad a
chance to rest a short while be.
the matches.
In addition 10 the eastern trip
the Varsity will also have a short
iaupt to Pitt. Carnegie Tech, w.
and J. and Bethany. This journey
was the feature of the "rond" sched-
ule last spring but will be a second
ary issue this year.
The homo schedule when COM
pleted will call for games with Beth
any, W. and J.. Pitt. Carnegie Tech.
Lehigh and several nearby Ohio col
leges. Indoor practice has been
started under the direction OF Cap
tain CoIman and the squad is max
ing rapid strides.
