DOMINION ASSOCIATION. ANNUAL MEETING. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Wednesday. The annnal meeting of the Lawn Tennis Association was held to-night. The following officers were elected. Patron, the Governor-General; president, Mr. J. C. Peacock; delegate to the Lawro Tennis Association of London and International Tennis Federation, Mr. F. H. Woodward; management committee, Messrs. M E. Dennlston, G. Gore, H. I. Graves, A. G. Henderson, W. D. Irons, S. A. Longuet. P. White Parsons; hon. auditor, Mr. F. O. Austin. , . . Forthcoming visits of teams or international tennis players to Australia and New Zealand were referred to by the chairman, Mr. A. G. Henderson. The Australian Association, he said, had been negotiating with a view to a visit by another French team, including Cochet. If New Zealand had an opportunity of getting that team to visit the country the chairman thought it should'not be missed. With Cochet he had no doubt there would be some of the leading younger players of France. Reference was also made to a British team which was expected in New Zealand shortly. The team would comprise Austin, Collins, Gregory, and Hlggs, who were among the leading plavers at Home. If New Zealand could make a gooa showing against such a team it would do well.
