As third pair, the Church played da Silva and Mrs. Duff who met, and defeated, Barraclough Mrs.
Findley 15-6, 15-1 and 15-9.
The Union Church are now in a invincible position in this section of the league and must rank first even if they loose every other point they play Their only dangerous opponents were the C.S.F. International who dropped four games out of the six they played last night against the British team of the same Club.
Both sides were rather drastically re-arranged. 'Stick' Duff partnered Miss Eardley for the British first couple and met Berents and Mrs. Stokes, who are usually the second pair. The result was rather a sweeping victory for the British, the scores being 15-6 and 15-5.
It was not anticipated that Forbes and Mrs. Cate would manage to take one sett from Meise and Mme des Courtile, who generally play first couple for the International. N Cate, however, was playing an excellent game and was well backed up by her partner. On the other side, it must be admitted that Mme des Courtils was by no means on her game and Meise did not get the support that he has had in the past when playing in ihe same combination. The points of the games were 15-7, 13-15 and 15-3.
The postponed match between the third couples will take place during the week.
