scored only after long and hard volley-
ing.
The team OF sisters did not get going
AZ top speed in the first act and dropped
II by narrow margin. Mrs. Mclean and
Mrs. Miles carried on the first two games.

nth. or these Ave games four went to
extra points before they were decided
| This gave Mrs Mclean and Mrs. Miles
the lead at 81 and the largest gallery
that has seen any match Of the tourna-
ment commenced to feel that they were
going to run right through the set. Mrs
| Farley and Miss Wildcy. however. braced
7 Mt this stage OF the game and won three
games In "a row, squarlns the score. Mrs.
b Miles made some wonderful gets during
the next two games and mainly because
/ OF her activities her team won the pair
! OF games and the set.
| In tho second set Mrs. Farley and Miss
wildey got going with rush and by taxi
| ing the fret four games. while their OPP
ponents were gathering IN the meagre
| total Of three aces, gave very strong EVIL
dence as to which team was going to win
! the match They slowed up a little after
this wonderful burst OF speed, in which
Mrs. Farley shone Mt the net. while her
| sister sparkled In deep court, and lost
three of the next four. The slowing up
was only n lull in the storm, however. for
they braced again and won the ninth

| Encouraged by having tied the match,
| Mrs. Farley and Miss Wildey kept up the
speed with which they had won the last
game OF the second get and tucked away
the nrst three games OF the third. Mrs.

hardest during the next Ave games and
won four OF them, which put them on
equal terms with their rivals. In tho last
OF the four games which they won, the
pace commenced to show on Mrs. McIear
