LAWN TENNIS.
THE AMATEUR STATUS.
LONDON, March 18.— The Council of the* Lawn Tennis Association has passed a resolution that any player accepting a reduction of more than 40 per cent, from ordinary charges made by hotels and similar establishments in connection with playing a game in any tournament match or competition, will forfeit his amateur status under rule 27. The offer of such a reduction to a player in connection with any tournament will render the meeting liable to have the sanction of the Council withdrawn and any further sanction refused. Any reduction not exceeding 40 per cent, which may be offered must be extended without distinction to all players competing.—(A. and N.Z.)
