BUNNY AUSTIN'S TW

CRUSHING WINS

LEE & MALFROY LOSE

AT MELBURY

MISS SCRIVEN BEATEN IN TWO SET

(By A. WALLIS MYERS)

London, April 20.

AFTER two days' exciting play at Melbury

some of it interrupted by rain-H. W. Austi and G. L. Rogers qualified for the final of the men's singles, while Miss Round will play Miss Stammers in the final of the companion event.

Holiday crowds had their thrills. They saw Austin defeat Lee and Malfroy in succession with the loss of only one game in each encounter, Miss Scriven, England's No. 2, conquered by Miss Stammers in two sets; Prenn outplayed by the Irish giant, Rogers and Miss Round, in a sparkl ing match, carried to the tenth game of the final set by Miss Yorke.

There were two intriguing women's singles on Thursday although neither provided a close match. Miss Round's control under pressure was always superior to that of Mrs. Whittingstall and Miss Scriven, save at the beginning of the second set, hit too many winners all round the court for Miss Hardwick.
