Tennis Season Opens.

The Annual Meeting was held on the 13th September. Mr. Plank (in the Chair) moved the adoption of the Annual Report and paid a tribute to the long and valued service of Professor Wilson who was retiring from the position of Patron after being connected with the Club since the beginning of the century. Mr. S. Eichelbaum was elected to succeed Proessor Wilson. The following officers were elected. Chairman, Mr. C. S. Plank, Hon. Secretary. E. G. Budge, Honary Treasurer, Mr. L. O. Desborough, Committee, Missess D. Briggs, Cook, Gill, and Hurley; Messrs. Burns, Donovan, Hutchison, and Sivyer.

The opening day was postponed owing to the page 12 weather. Last Saturday was very boisterous but a large number of members were present and a successful Yankee Tournament was held. Members who intend to play in matches this year should sign their names on the list on the Notice Board, and challenges on the ladder should be issued as soon as possible to assist the selection committee when matches start. Most of last years players will be in action again, and competition should therefore be keen.
