Why Change Was Made
An article yesterday commenting on the composition of the United tennis team in the senior reserve grade was referred to by the club captain of United (Mr R. Burney) yesterday. "The United team was exactly the same as in previous matches, except for A. I. Blackwell,” said Mr Burney. "The reason for this inclusion was that G. Kerridge had been transferred to Auckland, and was not available. W. G. Lewthwaite who has been in the club for years would have taken his place, but he had tennis elbow and was also not available.” "There was no thought or intention of bolstering up the team for the match against North Linwood, as the reference to R. G. Pattinson implied,” said Mr Burney
