Winter Tennis
Sir-1 believe that some days ago a report appeared in your paper that certain club in Hongkong was planning to hold a hard court tennis tournament on the usual lines,
entries confined Lo Hongkong and the preliminary rounds spread over several weeks and played at the convenience of the competitors.
I would now like to suggest that Hongkong take advantage of its fuv- Jurable position and hold a grass court tournament during the winter, perhaps the first week in December, which would be a proper opin tournament and not confined only to members of the Colony. Such an entries event might easily attract from the coast posts, Canton, Manila, Indo-Ching and ever further south.
