...association is to be praised for the excellent work it has accomplished, and every tennis player ought certainly to be enrolled among its members. Strange as it may seem, however, there are some men who prefer to avail themselves of the club's privileges without paying the merely nominal fee required. It has been decided to prevent this "dead-head" occupation of ours, that no person shall be allowed to use an association court unless prepared to show a certificate of membership, and it is hoped that this course will result both in increasing the membership of the club...

Where is the tennis association? As yet it has shown no life although the contest at Hartford for the intercollegiate championship takes place within two weeks and nothing has yet been done to have Harvard represented.
