Tennis

Dartmouth's tennis team last year won ten matches and lost six, not a bad record, but one which Coach Red Hoehn's 1957 squad could well better. With a strong nucleus of lettermen plus an unusually talented array of sophomores, Coach Hoehn reports, "This year's team should be one of the best in a long time."

The tennis team went all the way to Miami this spring for workouts, and lost both matches, as expected, to Miami by 9-0 and 8-1 scores.

The team shapes up as follows at this writing: In the number one spot will be either sophomore Dick Hoehn, son of Coach Red Hoehn, or Bill Bullen '54, a veteran who has returned to Dartmouth after Air Force service. Bullen won the fall tennis tournament, but missed the spring trip. Hoehn, certainly one of the best young tennis players in the East, battled Miami's star all the way before bowing 6-4, 7-5. Behind Hoehn and Bullen, in the number three position will probably be Chuck Kettering, who played number two last year. Kettering broke his neck playing touch football last fall, but has recovered rapidly and has looked impressive in early workouts despite missing the trip. Captain Tony Jenks, another top-seeded veteran, goes in at number four, while sophomore Don Miller and veterans Pete Buswell and Steve Lampl round out the top singles players.

Close behind, ready to move up as needed, are sophomores Opie Jones, Steve Picket, John Horan and Phil Langley, while Tom Schwarz is a veteran doubles man who will add strength.

Harvard, Yale and Princeton are the teams on Dartmouth's schedule that are tough, but the Indians could upset one or more of these Ivy foes if the weather will permit enough early practice on the Hanover courts.
