The ladies’ tournament, after a well-fought battle, resulted in Miss Jean Chcetham (Aorangi) gaining the first prize and Miss Noeline Laitig second. In the men’s finals, Mr D. Mitchell came first and Mr R. Humphrey second, while the Sandbrook cup, which goes to the player winning most gumes in matches with outside clubs dining the season, was won by Mr M. W.
