EXHIBITION TENNIS.
FINCHER BROTHERS DO WELL
MEIJI STARS DISAPPOINT THEIR SUPPORTERS.
The Meiji tennis stars were seen in action in the Kowloon Cricket Club courts yesterday when they! played three exhibition matches with some of the Colony's expou
ents.
There was a poor crowd to watch the games, but no doubs the rain that fell at about 4 p.m. on this side of the Harbour had a lot to do
with it.
A. L. Sullivan and I... Ses took part in the opening game, a single tie over three sets and after the local man had lost the first set, he asserted himself and took the next two and the match. This was a rather tame affair, both players being content to stay at the base- line most of the time and seldom, if ever, was any crisp, valleying in evidence.
The ben man's style is rather cramped and he was too fond of exploiting the "American Reverse" service, which cost him macy a valuable point. Sco. was also poor as regards his service but otherwise he seems quite a clever player. The final scores in favour of Sullivan were: 3-8, 64 and 0-2.
Finchers Show Up Well.. The next game was a doubles match between the Fincher brothers. and Okamota and Kumachi. Here the Finchers gave a dashing dis- play, and running the visitors off their feet claimed the first set at
