The crowned racquet-swingers who, | {t is thought, will be here, like the colors of Joseph's coat, are of all de- scriptions. There will be state cham- pion Leonard Blaisdell, Minot; high school champion Phil Wooledge, Fargo; city champion Hans Tronnes, Fargo; tri-city champion Larry John, St. Paul; William Eton and J. W. Wilkerson, Grand Forks, past state and tri-city winners; Dick Sturtevant, Grand Forks, former university cham- pion; Warner McNair, Fargo, former high school champion; William Giles, Winnipeg, former tri-city winner; and many others of equal caliber.

Minneapolis, St. Paul, Fargo, Minot and Grand Forks always have been ably repre- sented in the past, the records show Jamestown, Ada «Minn.), Larimore. Northwood, Bismarck, Wahpeton and Rugby have had occasional players entered.

Johns and Flanagan, paired in the doubles, were eliminated, surpris- ingly, by McLeod and Murray, Winni- peg, who later fell before Prentiss | Johnson and Sturtevant for the cham- pionship. These doubles winners are néw present practicing for the ap- proaching meet. A women’s tournament, as usual, will be run in connection with the men’s play. Lillian LaRue, Larimore, 1928 singles winner, and Georgina Brindle, Fargo, and Helen Carroll, Valley City, doubles champions, are expected to defend their titles.
