LAWN TENNIS
UNIVERSITY CLUB ANNUAL MEETING HELD A successful year was recorded at the annual meeting of the Canterbury University College Tennis Club last evening, a membership of 127 being attained during the year. The club was well represented at the university tournament in Auckland last year, those participating including Misses Inwood, Roscoe, Jones, Murray, and Hervey, Messrs Corich, Coward, Prebble, and Walls. Owing possibly to the prevailing weather and the long journey, the club’s representatives were not quite as successful as in the previous year, although Miss Inwood and Walls won the mixed doubles title. Officers were elected as follows:—Patron, Mr T. D. Straker-Smith; president, Mr F. J. Murray: vice-presidents, Messrs A. Lush, B. D. Duffield, H. A. Young, B. A. Barrer, Professor P. H. Powell; captain, X. J. Corich; secretary, Mr L. White; treasurer, Mr M. J. Graham; committee, Messrs V. Jones, T. W. Walls, A. G. Hunter, W. J. Webster, Misses L. Jones, S. Roscoe, and M. Sexton. Get that new Racket you need from the Canterbury Sports Depot, 113 Cashel street, any price from 12s 6d to 955, or have your Racket restrung from 12s 6d to 355. Call in and see our splendid range.
