Chuck and I came into SLC on Tuesday to watch one of Parker's tennis matches. This is a new sport for Parker, but being the athlete that he is, he is improving his skills rapidly. Chuck gave him a few pointers.
Chuck's father, the first Charles Ellis, coached the tennis team in the 30s and 40s at Los Angeles City Junior College where he also taught psychology and philosophy. His team won the
Southern California Junior College Tennis Team Championship in 1939 and in 1940.
None of our children have played tennis competitively, but all play well enough not to embarrass themselves if called upon to play. This is one of those lifetime sports that I highly encourage.
