The entries for the tennis tournament closed last night. It is a great pity that more teams did not enter for the doubles. Evidently many who had intended to sign the book at Bartlett's were frightened out of it when they saw the list of entries headed by a few of the most formidable players in college. The mere winning of a prize is not the primary object for which the tournament was originated, but rather that all who enjoyed tennis might go in, try their luck, and have some sport. This spirit of dreading to pit oneself against a better player for fear of being beaten is entirely out of place here. However, those who have entered seem determined to struggle hard for the championship, and as the courts are now in prime condition and the weather promises to be fair for a few days at least, the games will probably be interesting and exciting throughout.
