Tennis bonus
Well-heeled tennis buffs who missed out on seats for the Bjorn Borg-Chris Lewis match at Wilding Park this Saturday will be cheered to learn that 50 more seats have suddenly and' unexpectedly become available. They are prime seats, too, because they are all in the Wilding memorial stand or the temporary stand immediately in front. They do, of course, cost $5O at Anderson and Hill, Ltd. Borg has already given himself a psychological boost for the American Express Challenge series in New Zealand by -beating Lewis, 6-3, 4-6, 6-2, in a charity match in Bangkok. The match lasted HOmin, with Borg dominating rallies from the baseline in the first set and clinching victory with strong serving in the third. The first contest between the two players on their New Zealand series will be in Auckland tomorrow.
