Plans are going forward rapidly rounds "ladder" tournament being played this week the Municipal tennis courts, direction of Recreational Elmo Brao dy. Thirty-twplayers are now entered in three divisions, Junior and senior boys and senior girls. The ladder tournament is retournaplacing the round-robi- n ment style heretofore used in the city tournaments. The method will extend the playing time, and give the weakest as well as the strong est players additional and equal chances to play througout the early summer. According to the explanation of the ladder system made by Coach Brady, the names are placed on a ladder-forboard, and any player may challenge either or both of the two players just above himself on the ladder. In case the challenger wins the match, he is moved to the position of the loser, and in turn fights his way to the top of the ladder. In this method each player will be kept busy defending his position, and the ones remaining at the top of the ladder will be considered the city's best for the final playoff of the tournament. Those entered are: Junior boys Garth Belliston, Boyd Greenwood, Rex Lynn Jenkins, Jack Shaw, Hawkins, Maynard Bailey, Junior Bodell, Ray Boswell, Harold Olpin, Bob Inscore, Norton Latimer, La-vLiddiard and Jack Howarth. Senior Boys Harry Duckworth, Maynard Bailey, Monte Bailey, John Ord, Jack Pace, Max Strong, Max Davis, Franklin Foote, Alma Garrett, Merlin Orme, Reed Smoth, and Milton Shaw. Senior girls Marjorie Jackson, Florence Belliston, Norma Stephen-seGenevieve Gibson, Afton Gibson, Geraldine Cazier and Carol Ford. The names were placed on the ladders according to the way they were drawn from a hat, and others may be added as the play progresses. The ladders have been placed in the limes-New- s window, and the players are requested to make a report of their games to Coach Brady so that the necessary changes can be made.
