TENNIS.

This year tennis has been rather limited, both by the weather and by the pressure of other activities. Thus the only events to be recorded here are the inter-House matches.

The closest of these was the first semi-final, between School House and Temple. Each House had won three games before the last three .were played, and the deciding game was a hard fight between the two third strings, Gillgrass and Spink eventually winning for School House after being 5-3 down in the second set. The final result was 5-4 in School House's favour.

The other semi-final was a disappointment. The Rise team were not up to their usual standard, and the Manor easily defeated them by 5 games to 1.

It was confidently expected that the Manor would beat School House in the finals, and the afternoon was not as interesting as could have been desired. The Manor played very well, especially their first string, Dook and Graham. Only the House first string, Hudson and Goodwin, provided any opposition. They defeated the Manor second string, after being down in the first set. They played hard in their next game against the Manor first string, but the latter proved too strong for them. The other Manor strings each won two games, and the Manor won the cup by 5 games to 1. 34
