Eastern was handicapped last year
because it possessed but one court.
Thus far Central and Western have
had the most formidable teams, with
the former continually finishing
ahead. According TO Charles Hart,
principal of Eastern, the courtmen
of that school Will make a deter
mined effort this year to better con-
ditions.
1t has been the practice of schools
promoting tennis to arrange matches.
This year, however, il is likely that
the inter-high school athletic COM
mittee will take a hand. Each OF the
four schools will meet the others
twice on the courts. according to
present plans of the proposed series.
Play in the second half of the high
school basket ball series will get un-
der way tomorrow when Western en-
counters Central and Eastern meets
Tech in a double-header, to be held
at Central Coliseum. The Georgetown
school, which is second in the race,
will have its championship hopes
dimmed If il falls before Central
Eastern should have little trouble
with Tech to maintain its lead in the
series.
One of the most warmly contested
battles seen in the series thus far is
expected in the Western Central tilt.
In their first engagement with Gen.

their defense considerably and hope
