TENNIS TOURNAMENT
Sydney, May 7. The most interesting event of the Tennis Tournament to-day was certainly the Mixed Doubles, which was re-played after being partially completed yesterday The New Zealanders won by two sets, the game score being 14 to 8. Miss Nunneley played a dashing game. The winning pair were next matched against Mackenzie and Miss Mackenzie, representing New South Wales, but had an easy victory, winning the first two sets, equal to 12 games to 5. Parker and Miss Nunneley have yet to meet Deerhurst and Miss Dransfield, also representing New South Wales, who will probably give them a hot game. In the Men's Handicap Singles, Grossman beater Parker by two sets to one. In the Men's Double Handicap, Goddard and Strickland beat Gore and Collins by two to love. In the Ladies' Singles, Miss Nunneley beat Miss Dransfield by two to love.
