I am delighted to be able to announce the event during the visit of Premior Wan Li, who is himself a tennis player of considerable ability and is also Honourary Chairman of the All-China Tennis Association.

The inaugural Challenge is being sponsored by Ansett Airlines by arrangement with Australian Sports Marketing, under the official sanction and cooperation of the Lawn Tennis Association of Australia.

It is with deep regret that I note the death on Saturday August 1986 of the Honourable Dame Annabelle Rankin, DBE, who over a period of many years served the people of Australia with great distinction.

Dame Annabelle was the first Queensland woman to enter the Federal Parliament, being a Senator for Queensland from 1946 until 1971. She was opposition Whip from 1947-49 and Government Whip from 1951-1966. She was Minister of Housing from 1966-1971.
