ENTRIES for the Middle Atlantic
singles tournament, which begins
Saturday at the Edgemoor Club, were
being held open until 9 o'clock tomor-
row night, at which time the draw
will be made. They may either be
sent to Jack Gray at Edgemoor or
called in to the club steward at Wis
consin 1919 until that hour.
All of Edgemoor's courts have been
put in excellent condition during re-
surfacing processes of the past month,
and the field is assured of probably
the best foundations of any courts in
the city. A thin mixture of powdered
shale has been placed on top of 3
inches of clay making them excellent
for the city's future court play.

the doubles at Army-Navy or still
competing in out-of town tournaments
being given until Monday to play first
