Drawings were made on Monday and play began immediately. Winners in the *preliminary matches must take two out of three sets. In later rounds the winners will be required to take three out of five sets. John Sheldon, who beat Eddie Ful- ton in the finals of last year's tennis tournament at New Trier, is again entered and is considered one of the favorites to take the championship honors. He is an A-1 ranking player in Illinois and the Middle West. Ful- ton, last year's runner-up, is not en- tered this year. Several other ranking players have registered for the tournament. Among them are: Bob Stewart, Florida boys' champion; Bob McMahon, Illinois boys' champion, and Bill Morris, Sean High school champion. Stewart whipped M. Dudley 6-10 and 6-1 in his opening match, and Morris' victory over Bill Gibson was almost as deci- sive, 6-1, 6-2. In his first match Shel- don whipped L. Dickenson 6-2, 6-2.
