TENNIS Professor Frank Hurt's tennis team, al- though only half-way through the 1942 tennis season as the Aloba went to press, boasted one of its most promising teams since the early nineteen thirties. Bo Baugher, Gene Belt, Bill Baylies, Harry Yingling, and Sig Jensen combined with freshmen, Ken Yolk and Ken Volkhart to extend their streak to five straight matches against a lone defeat for a splendid car ly season record. Always before an average club, this year's team was strong in replacements and at writing had humbled American University twice, University of Delaware, Catholic University, and Mount St. Mary's College, while losing a 5 to 4 match to Johns Hop- kins. It tripped up Mount St. Mary's 9 to 0 to start the streak, downed Catholic Univer- sity 6 to 3, followed this by twin victories over the American University Eagles 8 to I nnd 7 to 2, and Polished off University of Delaware Blue Hens 7 to 2 for its fifth straight win. All of these wins were Mason- Dixon Conference battles, and they placed the Terrors right up there at the top of the list. \'<7ith seven more league tilts, Hurt's boys had a chance to happily come through to win the conference crown. Captained by senior Gene Belt, the club had power in No.1 player Baugher, Jensen, and Yingling. Freshmen Ken Yolk and Ken Volkharr, along with Baylies, rounded out the Terror racquet swingers.
