Lighting of the Washington Monu- ment tennis c;lrmllt night ‘:4,7 permit number of persons to engage hmrl of recreation, if feasible, was formulated as & definite today by the Welfare and Recrea Assoclation of Public Buildings and Grounds, Inc., at the monthly meeting of the corporation, of which, Lieut. Col. U. 8. Grant, 3d, is the president. Explaining that there is s technical problem of illumination to be solved, Col. Grant said that it will be thor- oughly investigated at once, and it is hoped to get in the installation in a month or two. Recently the Office of Public Build- ings and Public Parks extended electric lines down to boathouse on the Tidal Basin, so that it will now be compcuuvely easy to run a feeder line from Seventeenth Gtreet to the tennis courts. Col. Grant said that only the concrete courts will be lighted at first, as these are the only ones that can ho utilized with safety in wet weather or after a rain. Few Play in Summer Heai.

During the heat of the Summer day tennis c¢nthusiasts are few and far between. Col. Grant con- siders that if this period can be length- ened by three hours after dark by having the courts illuminated, this will be_a service to the public. Referring to the great demnd for tennis courts, Col. Grant ed that there are about 10,000 urs each month spent on the courts hy various persons, as tennis vh‘y.lzn usually for an hour.
