SOUTHLAND BEECH
A NEW USE FOUND. By Telegraph—Press Association INVERCARGILL, May 22. It is highly probable that next season Southland tennis players will be using rackets made from silver beech grown in their own province. The manager of the Co-operative Beech Co. of Southland has received advice from a well-known Sydney firm that Southland beech, which is of high bending quality, has been tried for racket frames with satisfactory results. An order for this class of timber has been placed, and it is probable that rackets made from beech wifi appear on the market.
