More Tennis Courts
The Editorial Page-
Along with the increase in enrollment at the University has come an increase in intramural sports. This fall 255 students entered the tennis competition. The interest of students in tennis points out the healthy condition of the intramurals program and it also brings up one of the shortcomings.
At the present time the University has only two tennis courts which can be considered fit for tournament play. A school the size of K.U. should have at least 20 good courts.
There are four concrete courts and 19 shale courts for student use. Two of the concrete courts are in such a sad state of neglect, they are used only because the shale courts are worse. Rocks and holes make the shale courts an ideal place to break an ankle. Grass and weeds around the courts and faulty backstops mean wasted time in looking for lost balls.
The intramurals program is not the only loser in the shortage of good courts. Students who do not compete in the tournaments play tennis for their own amusement. They don't get much enjoyment from a match played on one of the shale courts. If they are not careful, they end up with a twisted ankle or a bruised leg.
The large number of entries in the tennis tournaments should be evidence enough for the University to start building me hard surface courts immediately. J.LR.
