Glorious weather prevailed for the Opening Day of the Tennis Club and there was a record entry of 60 men and 38 women for the Yankee Tournament.
Efficient organisation, with Mr. B. W. Brock in charge, resulted in the finalists taking the court before 6 p.m. It was no light task arranging a satisfactory afternoon's tennis for so many players.
Miss R. Singleton and F. Fortune, who combined well, defeated Miss J. Luke and K. Stafford in the final. 21/14, Other players displaying good form during the afternoon included Misses B. Marsh and G. MacMorran and among the men, Baker. B. Kelly. L. Pitt and J. Ilott.
Visitors included Professor F. F. Miles and Messrs. A. B. Cochran. G. F. Dixon and H. N. Burns. Vice-Presidents of the Club. To Miss F. E. MacLean the thanks of all are due for providing an afternoon tea in keeping with the best traditions of the Tennis Club.
