TENNIS.

The other court in front of the New Buildings was put into use this term, so there are now three grass courts.

Two tournaments were organised, an Open and an Under 16. Unfortunately the " Under 16 " tournament could not be finished.

The " Open " tournament finished with V. L. F. Davin and S. P. H. Rylatt in the final, but this was not played owing to shortage of time.

There was only one Tennis match this term, against the Staff, who won easily by eight matches to nil, one match being unplayed. The School team lacked experience, but there were some good games. SCHOOL v. STAFF (Lost 8-0). S. P. H. Rylatt and G. E. L. Graham lost to F. Smith, Esq., and J. H. Stevenson, Esq., 0-6, 6-4, 1-6.
