Show TennismenToPlayLobos I The University tennis team, with a 4-1 dual meet record, takes on one of the Western Athletic Conference powers this Saturday in New Mexico. Mex-ico. The Redskins and Lobos square off on the Ute courts at 1 p.m. THE NEW Mexico club is reputed to be the finest in the school's history. They have two former nationally ranked junior performers in Steve Foster and Jeff Quinn. Quinn and Foster defeated the Utes' Jim Osborne and Mike Martines in the conference confer-ence doubles championships last year. Added to these two fine performers are several other top tennis players, enough to make the Lobos contenders against any tennis team in the country. THE REDSKINS, with the win over defending national champions University of Southern Sou-thern California under their belts, would also have to be considered one of the nation's best and so Saturday's meet should be one of the finest collegiate tennis get-togethers of the year. Coach Harry James will have Jim Osborne, Mike Mar-tines, Mar-tines, Jim Foulger, Jon Erik Ross, Rick Bennion, and Skip Sedivec in singles and the tandems of Osborne-Martines, Bennion-Foulger, and Ross-Sedivec Ross-Sedivec in doubles.
