FRENCH TENNIS FEELS THE PINCH
Lawn Tennis Association Facing $2,600 Deficit.

Three other veterans also performed to good effect,ANART Philip Mead carrying his bat for 104, Geary again proving the mainstay of the Leicester attack, and "Farmer" White bowling so effectively as to cause the defeat of Notts at the hands of Somerset. There was a thrilling finish to the match, the West- erners winning by 13 runs.
