It is also a good idea for mem- bets to use the reserved -booking board as much as possible. By placing your tag on the board you can reserve your court time during club time, except for tour- naments or lessons. There is still room for male members for the trip to the Hyde Park Club tomorrow night. Call 235-1304 for more information. The results from last Sunday's tournament will be published next week. The Junior Workouts will continue on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 5:00 - 6:00 p.m. All players under 18 are welcome and there, Is no charge for these sessions. Everyone should bring their own racquet if possible. Tip of the Week: The Backhand The Grip: The "V" bet- ween the thumb and the first finger should run along the left side of the top of the racquet, if the racquet is held at a right angle to the court. The Stroke: In the ready position, use the left hand on the shaft to change to the backhand grip. Draw the racquet back 180 degrees so the head points straight behind you. Racquet head is higher than the hand. Right hand is next to the left hip. Right arm is close to the stomach. Step with the right leg, into the shot. Make contact a little below the waist and keep the racquet head above the wrist at contact. Follow through towards the sky. Use the shoulder muscles by keeping the arm fairly straight. Avoid using all wrist or elbow. Swing right through for a fluid stroke. The best thing to do is to get out and use the courts. Your progress will be directly proportional to the number of hours that you spend on the courts and or playing against the wall. • ..411, COMPLETEVIT ' COVERAGE FOR Home ' Farm Life • Commercial • Automobile Registered Retirement CONTACT Bev Morgan Insurance 441* -1440 Plans Agency Ltd. 238 Main St. Phone 235-2544 Exeter Across from Savewny Lumber al111111111111111111111111111 I I I I I I 11111111111111111111111111 111111111111111111011111111111111111111 1111111111111111111 I I I 11111111111111111111111111111 1111111111111111111111111111 L ANNOUNCEMENT Larry Snider Motors has been purchased by BUDFIELD FORD SALES We look forward to meeting you and looking after all your automotive requirements. #I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 11111111111111111111 I I I 11111111111111 U I I I I 11111 I I I 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111I1111111111111111111111111111I11111111111111111111111111111111 Jill1111IIIIIIIIIII11111111111111111I III I III I IIIIII11111II111111I I I I111111111111111111111111IIII11111111111111111111111t11111111111111111111111111UIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII1M E.
