Due to the great expense involved in this, as in most of the better foims of recreation it was a big undertaking for the committee but knowing the need of more courts in Payson to supply the growing demand for this splendid sport, they made the effort and succeeded because they have had such generous support from city officials, business houses and citiaenS. The geheraflsentTment in favor of the project is very good and there is no question about the popularity at the present time is that the two courts in the city are not enough to supply the needs of those who are taking up this form of recreation. The court is occupied at all times with other players waiting their turn. As the game is growing in popularity all over the country it is hoped that more courts can be built in the city, by cooperation of all citizens, the thing most necessary, The report committee shows an expenditure of $435.00. This amount, while large is much less than in other places for the same high class construction. The court is indeed a credit to the city and is equal to any modern cement court in any community. Stanley Wilson, director of athletics at the Payson High School, and who has been interested in more tennis courts for our city, supplied the plans and was in charge of the construction. The committee owe him a debt of gratitude for the interest he has .taken and are grateful to all who made contributions of any sort. BRATION SUCCESSFUL ' Paysons first, big onion harvest and home coming .celebration is now history and with the experience of this years venture, which was very successful; necessary changes in plana and procedure can be made and no doubt improved upon before another year.
