Staffordshire Day By Day

Tennis enthusiasts are reminded of the opening of the green hard courts of the Basford Lawn Tennis Club in West-avenue Basford tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon, at 3 pm. Mr. J. Wilfred Shirley will perform the opening ceremony. The occasion will be especially interesting by reason of the exhibition match between Miss Joan Fry and Mr. Claude Whitehouse. There will be other exhibition matches by well-known county players.
