An. unusual enough situa- tion. It becomes more unusual when it is realized that the players are brothers and. both are members of Canada's na- tional tennis team. The story of Tony and Bob Bardsley 'of Vancouver has been cited as an example of the competitive spirit of the members of the team, created by the Canadian Lawn Tennis Association in 1964. Six of the 10 team members United States in May and to attend other tournaments dur- ing the summer. A seventh, Bob Puddicombe, 19, of Van- couver, will shortly go to Helsinki, Finland, to join Can- ada's Davis Cup team. Their success will be a re- flection of intensive compul- sory and voluntary training during the winter months while attending the University of British Columbia. Throughout the winter they have had three compulsory practices a week plus calis- thenics and sprints and at least one challenge match with fellow-members--it was one of these matches that led to the temporary coolness Besides all have been playing as much as the time and university obliga- tions permit. The idea of a national team centred at UBC was that of | veteran Davis Cupper : Paul Willey, now a tennis profes- sional here. It was proposed to the CLTA by its president | Jim Macken, also of Vancou- | ver. Willey wanted to get the top- ranked college players in Can- ada to one area where they could pursue their academic | the | and tennis. training at same time.

Bursaries worth up to $800 were made availa- ble to eligible players, enough to attract three Canadians who were on far more lucra- tive scholarships in the United States. TEAM EXPANDED One of the points that sold Vancouver to the association was the availability of Willey, one of the best in Canada, to coach the team. The first team started at UBC in September, 1964. It was composed of Puddicombe, Bob Bardsley, Bob Moffatt, Keith Carpenter and Alan Skelton of Vancouver and Pierre Lamarche of Montreal. Bardsley and Moffatt were members of last year's Davis Cup team. The team was increased to 10 the following year with Carpenter dropping out and Don McCormick of Victoria, Tony Bardsley and Vic Rollins of Vancouver, Cam Dalgtiesh of Edmonton and Barry Shakespeare of Halifax being added. The oldest is 21, the youngest 18. McCormick, Skelton and Tony Bardsley, joined from U.S. colleges. Is the program a good one Macken says yes, but a sell- ing job is needed to convince any skeptics. He measures the success in two ways, national rankings of some of the players based on year-round play and return for the investment. STRONG TEAM SPIRIT In the former case he notes that Carpenter is rated No. 3 nationally, Puddicombe No. 5, McCormick No. 9 and Bards- ley and Moffatt Na. 10. In the latter he says the youngsters are returning in terms of effort and enthusi- asm the money and energy poured into their program. "There is not a hair between them in terms of play," he says. Macken sees the concept of a national team as one that wml make Canada stronger In international tennis. He said Vancouver can become the mecca of Canadian tennis. But the CLTA must always be in a position to defend the idea. The players themselves, by their actions, had to be salesmen for it. Skeleton described the team | attitude in an article in a lo- cal magazine. "We think we're good sports. We know we're hard losers. Somehow we remain buddies, rooming, eating and training together, having good times together, despite the in- tense comhetition <nd the fact that, aside from a desire to play tennis, the 10 of us are utterly different in personal- ity, character and motiva- tion."
