LS boy on tennis court, serving and running to the net. Manufacturer's marking holes in film disrupt shot, , but we have an interesting pan to the side of the court, where in the distance old people are playing bocce ball and shuffleboard. Building in the distance has California look, Spanish revival, as if this is an expensive resort, or a tennis camp 01:15:49 (CSL 383-8) LS tennis great Bill Tilden with racket on court, preparing to take a serve backhand. Slow motion shot shows him hitting the ball back, first backhand, then forehand. Good strong shots indicate that even as an elderly man Tilden played with skill. 01:16:09 Tilden serves (shot at regular speed) and takes a forehand return
