Ruppel, of Roosevelt, last week survived some stiff competition to win the Vernal City tennis tournament by defeating Donald Barr in a tough match, 6-3, 4-6, 6-4, at the municipal courts on Sunday. A $16.00 tennis recquet was his compensation for being the top junior singles player in the Basin. Ba-sin. Two youngsters. Douglas Ma-lin Ma-lin and John Ruppel, entered the tournament from Roosevelt, and advanced to the semi-finals, where Ruppel disposed of Ma-lin Ma-lin and won the right to meet Barr, who will be a senior at Uintah High school this year. John will be a sophomore at Wasatch Wa-satch Academy, Mt. Pleasant. |
