mented less when in a leading position he would win much more often. So Dartmouth had already won when Baker went into the court with the Navy Rugger forward, Hammond, and the latter completed their triumph with another comfortable victory. Baker ran himself to a standstill by the end of the second game, and scored only one more point. The results were:— N. W. D. Yardley beat Lt. G. S. Salt (Dartmouth), 9-7, 9-2, 9-3. S. G. S. Pawle lost to Commander R. J. Shaw (Dartmouth), 7-9, 3-9, 9-0, 3-9. B. A. C. Gray lost to Lt.-Commander I. C. M. Sanderson (Dartmouth), 6-9, 5-9, 2-9. N. R. Dobree lost to Lt. J. H. Fordham (Dartmouth), 7-9, 9-0, 9-3, 3-9, 4-9. R. C. Baker lost to Lt. R. J. L. Hammond (Dartmouth), 2-9, 9-6, 0-9, 1-9. It is to be hoped that next season will see a re-birth of the enthusiasm and loyalty to the Club which marked its initial year of match play. We have a number of decidedly useful players—if only they will turn out—and a side consisting of, say, Yardley, H. S. Burrows, J. D. Burrows, Pawle and R. G. Bullen could hardly fail to do well in the Cup. Besides these there are A. V. Mackintosh, Gray, T. B. Bridges and several others who have considerable match experience. Again tribute must be paid to the keen and efficient work of our Hon. Secretary, B. A. C. Gray, who has throughout had to work under most disheartening conditions. He arranged one tour in the Manchester district which had at the last minute to be cancelled because several players withdrew from the side, but fortunately fixtures with Lancing Old Boys, Woodford and Hendon Police College were carried out with happier results.
