Lawn Tennis Association Facing $2,600 Deftelt.

A defleit of $2,600 has given the French Lawn Tennis As- Hociation added incentive to urge the tri-colour forces on to victory in the 1932 Davis Cup matches. Dr. George Collet, treasurer, reports that unless the cup remains in France for at least another year the obligation cannot be met.

Three other veterans also performed to good effect,ANTI Philip Mead carrying his bat for 104, Geary

the Leicester again proving the mainstay of 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.
