Meets Hard to Get.

Thirty candidates for the informal
tennis team which will represent
Notre Dame this season will enter
a series Of elimination contests on
the gymnasium court Tuesday after
noon. Following the result of the
tryouts the team will begin prepare
tons for an active season.
Five winners will emerge from
the finals which are expected TO be
completed the latter part of the
week. The successful candidates
will then join with McCarty, Veg
man, Pfeiffer, Velasco and Hanra-
han. high men of the school tourna-
ment last year. and form the group
from which the final representatives
will be picked.
Manager McCarty has been in
communication with court officia1
Of other schools and has tentatively
arranged several dual meets TO be
held after the season swings into
it's full tribe. The local squad will
be handicapped in securing attrac-
tive dates, however. as the team is
an unknown quantity and without
the foNlation Of an official sport OF
the athletic department.
Few Dates Open.
In addition, the going tennis
teams of other schools have complet-
ed their schedules for the present
season: and in the short period left
i'm the present year find few suitable
dates left open. This is especially
true Of Conference schools who had
regular schedules and tournament
dates arranged previous to the pre-
liminary organization of the lOcal
group.
Although facing these handicaps
Manager Mccarthy is working hard
TO provide as many possible tests

ent season a stepping stone 10 q
more ambitious program for next
year. when practically all OF the
local sharks return to school. The
unusual success of the informal
hockey seven during the past sea-
son furnishes a precedent which the
itennis enthusiasts hope TO follow.
