TENNIS

CAMBRIDGE SUB-ASSOCIATION POSITION OF COMPETITION No matches were played in the Cambridge Tennis Sub-Association’s competitions on Saturday, but both A and B grades are well advanced. The B-grade will be continued next Saturday. Cambridge No. 1 team is leading in the A-grade with an unbroken record and with the present state of the competition, Cambridge No. 2 is the only team likely to affect the result. In the B-grade Horahora has won the country zone, and in all probability Trinity will win the town zone. There are two rounds to be played in the tjown zone, but Trinity has not yet been beaten, while all the other teams have had at least two losses.
