TABLE-TENNIS: Not many Maoris enter this sport competitively, although it would be suitable for country halls in winter time. So far, the greatest prominence was reached by Tuini Evans, who won every junior event in the national championships at Napier, as well as the Waikato open championship and the Davis Cup, Whangarei. The Maori Golf Association's national tournament in Gisborne resulted in new champions winning both the men's and women's titles. In the men's division M. J. Phillips from Te Awamutu came from behind to win his match with T. Webster, of Otaki, on the nineteenth green. In the women's division Mrs P. Kaua, of Gisborne, defeated Mrs D. J. Wilkie, of Wanganui. Two Auckland teams (Aotearoa and Maori Community Centre) compete for the basketball championship during the Coronation hui at Turangawaewae. (Photograph: Peter Blanc.)
