FERRY WINS AT LAST.
FRANCE AND ANGAS PLAY WELL. (By Telegraph.—Presa Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. The highlight of yesterday's exhibition tennis matches at Miramar played by the visiting British team and the New Zenlanders, France, Angas, and Miss D. Nicholls, was the singles match between Perry and Hughes, which was won by Perry, B—6, 7—5. This was the fourth contest between these two players in New Zealand, and the first that Perry has won. It was a first class exhibition, closely fought all the way. The Britishers combined in a doubles match against France and Angas, and won a spectacular contest after losing the third set and being pushed to 7—5 in the second. The Wightman Cup pair, Mioses Dearman and Lyle, played a doubles match with Misses Round and Nicholls, but this was abandoned when the latter were leading 4—2 in the third set. A mixed doubles between France and Miss Dearman v. Angas and Miss Round, was also played, and resulted in a win for France and Miss Dearman.
