  • Pete Allen Remembers Clarence Chaffee by Peter Allen, at July 19 Williamstown Dinner Clarence Church Chaffee Was Born in 1902 and Was an All-Around Athlete at Brown
    Senior Tennis 2013 – 1 Volume Six • Number Thirteen • Fall • 2013 THE NEW ENGLAND SENIOR TENNIS FOUNDATION BULLETIN Pete Allen Remembers Clarence Chaffee by Peter Allen, at July 19 Williamstown dinner Clarence Church Chaffee was born in 1902 and was an all-around athlete at Brown. In 1938 he came here to coach tennis, squash, and soccer at Williams College and remained for 33 years, until retirement in 1970. I was very privileged that Chafe was my tennis and squash coach here from 1962 to 1966; I graduated several years before he retired. He was a strong factor in my decision to attend Williams. His infectious spirit, athleticism, and emphasis on sportsmanship made him a lifelong role model for me and many others. As fine a tennis player and tennis coach as he was in his 60s, he was most inspiring to me as the squash coach. There were always plenty of already-experienced tennis players in every en- tering class, but very few freshmen had ever played squash at all. Chafe would entice his tennis recruits to try squash in the winter season, inviting anyone independently motivated to sign up for a private half-hour on-court lesson with him... every day if you wanted. He'd stand in the center of the court, swinging his racquet like a magic wand. He'd hit winner after winner without exertion, yelling out which winner he would hit next and why and how. What a hands-on teacher for anyone who was inspired to learn from the master and work hard! Williams played all the Ivies in the 1960s, along with Army and Navy.

    Fall • 2016 THE NEW ENGLAND SENIOR TENNIS FOUNDATION BULLETIN 2016 USTA New England Hall of Famers Jill Craybas Jill Craybas grew up just 20 miles away from Newport and now she’s back as a six-time WTA champion and member of the USTA New England Hall of Fame. As a junior, Jill attained a No. 1 New England ranking in the Girls 18s division and climbed to a high of 4 nationally. She continued to shine in college, winning national championships with both the University of Florida and the University of Texas, twice earning All-America honors. Craybas turned pro in 1996 and was a mainstay on the WTA tour. She competed in 45 straight Grand Slams and maintained a top- 100 ranking for 10 consecutive seasons. Her highest singles ranking was No. 39 and doubles, No. 41. Craybas also had the unique opportunity to represent her country as she was selected to the 2008 U.S. Olympic team and was a member of the Fed Cup team for five years. Wade Frame A competitive tournament player for the past 26 years, Wade Frame has achieved No. 1 New England rankings 19 times between singles and doubles. In 2014, he climbed as high as No. 19 nationally in 55 Singles and No. 5 in 55 Doubles with partner Chris Holmes. Despite his success though, he has never let tennis get in the way of family time. He’s always maintained a steady balance, and contributing to that is his competitive play with both his son Warren and daughter Alissa.

    The Denver Catholic Register WEDNESDAY, MARCH 15,1978 - VOL. Lll Colorado's Largest Weekly NO. 31 25 CENTS PER COPY 48 PAG ES Let Us AGclalm C hrist Again Indians Help U s O b s e rv e Palm Sunday By Jam es Fiedler Register Staff When you’re getting palms this Sunday to take home from church, or marching in a procession with th?m, remember the Seminole Indians near Lake O'ceechobee in Florida. What do those Indians have to do with the celebra­ tion of Palm Sunday in Denver? That’s where most of the palms used in Denver Catholic churches come from. For Most Catholic Churches Ray Gerken of the John P. Daleiden religious goods store in Denver said that the store furnishes palms for about three-fourths of the Catholic churches in Denver. The company, which gets the palms originally from the Florida Indians, also supplies some Protes­ tant churches in Metro Denver, as well as churches in Montana, Wyoming, Utah, and Nebraska. While he, his brother Joe, and an employee, Ry Do (in this country from Saigon about two and a half years now), were unloading a truckload, Ray explained that this year’s shipment would be enough for about 137,000 persons. Grow ‘In the Wild’ Ray and the truckdriver, Leon Tillman, both said that the palms grow “in the wild” — they are not grown in groves specifically for Palm Sunday sales — and the Indians “harvest” them on their reservation by simply cutting off the tops of the trees. The Indians then sell them to a nearby company, which distributes them to stores such as L'aleiden’s throughout the country.
