In tl jo men s singles semi-finals tennis oi a high standard was seen in the first set of the Wilsou-Bar-jiett match. Wilson in the first pet played almost perfectly, and only Barnett’s steadiness enabled him to stand up to the Welliugtouian’s clean, well-placed shots. ■ The second set was very different, Wilson suffered a complete lapse from form, while Barnett, as steady as ever, sent everything back, and profited by his opponent’s errors. .Wilson lost every game. The An-gas-Bartleet match was equally good. There was little between the players. In the first set, which Bartlect won, 7-5, Bartleet scored often by short volley placements, \ but Angus was extremely agile. In the second set the volleying evoked loud applause. Bartleet wen the first game, hut Angas gained the ascendancy and won the set in A row.—Auckland message.
