Additional Entries Now Have
 Been Received

The necessary pep was injected in the tennis tournament when Louis Vogel forwarded his entry yesterday morning. Although he has not play ed as often as last year, he insists his chances of winning the cup are as good as the next ones. He will team up with c. J. Christensen in the doubles and it will be remembered that they were the only team in 1926 to take a set from the cham pions, E. Benson and Dressell; in fact they were leading in the last set and were only defeated by dark ness coming on. Other entries were received from kensington. among them Francis Lanza who reached the semi-finals in 1926 and was put out by kirkham the final winner that year.
 John Cianci who was prevented from playing in the finals last year by reason of the school term at Notre Dame opening early, hopes to get the cup this year. He was on the tennis team at college and has been keeping in practice all summer. Harry Schupack is an. other old timer whose entry has been in every year. Entries for both doubles and singles will close Thurs day at p. m. The draw will then be made and postal cards mailed every player indicating their op- ponent, his address and telephone, so that there will be no excuse for any delay. The same notice will be published in the papers Friday.
