Abstract: A tennis court net center strap of a single elongated strip of material has a loop therein about midway to provide first and second strip portions with a loop end and free end respectively. The second portion has a Velcro fastener or lock of hook and loop surfaces and when the second portion is extended through a connection on the loop end with the tennis net therebetween, the second portion is doubled back on itself to lock the strap around the net. An additional lock secures the free end of the second portion to the second portion so the lock is positioned between the connection and additional lock.

Abstract: A urethane foam generally rectangular pad comprises an upper patient support surface and a parallel bottom bed mattress engaging surface. Longitudinal edges extend between the upper and bottom surfaces and include an upwardly and outwardly inclined surface extending from the bottom surface. An opening is provided in one end of the pad for receiving a bedpan. The inclined surface on the longitudinal edges enables the pad to be positioned adjacent a patient which has been rolled toward one side at an angle relative to a bed mattress so that the pad can be positioned adjacent the patient whereupon the patient and the pad may be rolled back upon the mattress to position the patient on the pad and to position the pad on the bed mattress.
