You rally for a little while, and, just as you get ready to serve, some little children on roller skates invade the courts Now you have to play with them skating on the court, because they will take your balls or tell their mamas if you try to put them off by force. Then come the dogs, and they make off with a few of your Drize balls. Oh. well, who cares halls onlv cost about a buck i apiece. Despite all these difficulties your partner finally manages to deliver you a blazing fast ball and you lay into it with all your might. Boingg! ! Now no strings, and it costs $5 to get the racket restrung. By the time you get the money for new balls and re stringing the racket, autumn is here and there isn't any chance to play then because you have to go to school.
