With only one letter winner remain

appears that st. Adams tennis team
this season will have . rather hard
time maintaining It's fine record.
The team has won the Prep School
League title for the past two campaigns.
st. Adams will entertain Friends Fri

race.
Ray Carter Is the lone player at hand
who won letter last season. Corson
Dougherty, who has had some expert
ence at Georgetown Prep School, which
he formerly attended, and Bill Galliher
are others who seem destined to land
places on the team, but who viii make
the other two berths is decidedly I'm
certain.
Arthur Carnduff, Gilbert Sabin and
Middleton Train are dependables lost
from the 1928 combination.
