These juniors who have been fostered during the last few years will be the mainstay of the tennis section during the period of the war. They have already done excellent work by; helping to get, the courts into-cofidltldn. ■Working parties'have been formed and rolling IS done every day. We sincerely hope the juniors will realise their responsibilities to those who have joinec. the-Forces, -and by leaving behln 1 their childish days, settle down to becoming useful and constructive' memters., The'pleasure they Will get. from the club in the future will repay them a thbusai.-d fold for their extra effort. We look forward to welcoming , members of the! Forces and the A.T.S.

Mr. 'Bourn paid- tribute to the vfork done' by an organised working party, whose efforts had kept down the cost of repairs. The chief Item of expenditure, £80 3s„ for wages and national insurance, was £71 9s.! less than iii the pre­ vious year 'as the club dispensed with the services of a professional. Subscriptions for 1940 amounted to £241 19s„ as' compared with £286 3s. 4d. for 1939, which was very satisfactory copsidering the number of members In the Forced. Gate
