(Leaving the grounds for a short interval will be overlooked). In the same manner a charge of ten cents will be livied on men using the new clay courts. Again, on the grass courts the charges will be fifteen cents for each player, if engaged in a four-handed game, and twenty cents if engaged in a two-handed game. These charges will not seem large in view of our new advantages...
