No Happy Talk Today.

      No respect: This week on the BNR sports page it was stated (twice) there was no BHS tennis prior to 1955. Wrong!! Without any additional research, the Kornerman can report, just off his old head, that the BHS tennis team in 1941 won all of it's dual matches and in 1943, the doubles team of Dick Lantz and Dick Farley WON THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP. There's probably been even more history in other post-1955 years but who cares? I do. Just because this success goes back a few years it shouldn't be erased.
