Tennis Club

Tennis Club

During the long vacation the Tennis Club has carried on with its usual summer activity. The teams entered for the Inter-Club Championship Matches have met with varying success. The men's senior team in the first division has won all matches save one, but the B team, in the same grade, has not been so successful. The men's team in the second division has had two wins, whilst the women's team, third division, has, up to the present, suffered no losses. Of those teams in the mixed grades, the fourth and the sixth A teams have had only two losses.

The Club Championships are being played in a satisfactory maner, two rounds being completed in all events. Players have been notified that the third round must be finished by March 14th, while it is hoped that the championships will be practically decided by the end of March. The women's Doubles Championship has already been finalised at the time of publication, and was won by Misses M Briggs and S. Phillipps.

The team has been chosen for the Easter Tournament. and will consist of W. B. Gosnell, P. A. McCarthy, E. F. Page, and W. D. Sykes; Misses M. Bell, E. Cook, P. Edwards, and S. Phillipps. Of these players, only Gosnell, McCarthy and Miss Phillipps have taken part in former University Tournaments. Amongst these we have no real doubles player, apart from McCarthy, whose brother Jock will be missed this year, as will also Misses Line and Longmore, who have been so successful in the past. But we are sure that, despite their inexperience, the new members of the team will acquit themselves well in the struggle with the other Colleges.
