Tournament Review

The 17th annual series of tournaments organised by the Hastings and St. Leonards C.C. was carried through with usual success from Monday, December 28 [1936] to Wednesday, January 6 [1937]. By far the largest part of the work of organisation fell on the hon. secretary, A. F. Kidney, and the hon. treasurer, E. A. Lewcock, and the latter as usual ably conducted the Congress in person. Previous records of 120 competitors in 1934 and 130 last year were beaten by a total of 132 this time, and it looks rather as if some such figure as 120 or 130 would be more or less stabilised in succeeding tournaments until the projected Conference Hall at Hastings is built, when much more floor space and extra convenience will be available.
