...most remarkable of the 1,200 or so Super-Seniors-players who are at least 55 years old and still compete in tournament tennis. In the five years since the Super-Senior organization was founded, divisions have been formed first for free-swinging 60s, then for 65s, 70s and 75s. This year Super-Senior President C.

...dirty that it no longer lets in much light. There are air-pressure problems with some bubbles−now and then a tennis player will complain of popping ears. Acoustics are often eccentric. A hard-hit volley, for example, sometimes will sound like a battery of French 75s. Heating−or cooling−;the bubbles is difficult. The sun has a way of turning the structures into hothouses, while the cold winds of winter can overwhelm heating systems...
