ten minutes.

Miss Seriven played the ilent set of her match with Miss Palfrey really well. If Mlas Palfrey had not been helped by rather lucky half-volley Miss Scriven might conceivably have led by 3. However, from 44 she won Miss Palfroy's service for 6-1 and was out on her own. Good enough. For I ought Lo mention straight away that Miss Palfroy (as) may have been gathered from some- thing I have already said) is a beauti-j ful server in spite of her compartiro shortness of stature. The second set was even up to a point; but Miss Scriven made little or no effort to getj Fon terms after losing her service, to give Miss Palfrey the 4-2 lend; this was hardly judicious.

THOSE THREE SERVICE ACES.

I have already outlined the debaclo' of the third set. Miss Scriven could not be blamed for losing the seventh game, in which she only wanted a point for the match by 6-1, for those three servico aces of Minn Palfrey's "C" Division Points

would have beaten anybody; but it From K.D.R.C. seems a pity that she could not deviso some method of winning one of the Playing at home yesterday in next three games.
