TENNIS OUTLOOK

Predicting the outcome of eight varsity intercollegiate tennis matches to be played by the
Bloomsburg squad this year, would be a tough job
for anyone. This is the first time in nearly a
score of years that the activity has ranked as a
varsity sport.
Only two members of the team have had any
experience in competition, and none of them have
had experience at the intercollegiate level.
Practice began in earnest several weeks ago,
and, due to bad weather, the team has had few
opportunities to play on the outdoor courts at
the Bloomsburg Tennis Club, which will serve
as their home base of operations.
Coach Himes has indicated that the squad will
proceed with some caution until members are
able to gather more experience; however, all seem
determined to compile a respectable record despite the "first season" problems.
Home and away matches have been scheduled
with four members of the Pennsylvania State
College Conference. They include Kutztown,
Millersville, Shippensburg, and East Stroudsburg
State Colleges.

CRAIG L. HIMES, VARSITY TENNIS COACH

Varsity tennis and Coach Craig Himes are both

A 1949 graduate of Clarion State College,
Coach Himes taught eight years in the South

Area Joint Schools, and two years with the Army
Dependent Schools in Orleans, France.

He also

spent a year as a Graduate Research Assistant
at the University of Pittsburgh where he earned
the Master of Science Degree in Botany in 1957.

While in France, Himes was active in athletics
in the role of Assistant Football Coach and Head
Basketball Coach.

His cagers amassed a record

of 19 wins and 7 losses, and finished in fourth
place in the European Tournament at Bremerhaven, Germany, in 1959.
