The defeat of Cochet at Wimble- don came as a great surprise in Paris.
The astonishment was all the greater because the newspapers had stated that Cochet was present' at the wedding of Lacoste and Mile. Simone de la Chaume at 12.30 p.m. in Paris on the day of his defeat. People were thua led to believe that Cochet was not playing.

A boundary was saved, to all ap- pearances, miraculously. Had the fieldsman been asked how he sav -ed-the-boundary, he would-prob- ably have shrugged his shoulders and replied "I just glued my eyes on the batsman, saw his stance, the ball that was. sent down to him, and I knew the direction of the forthcoming hit,"
A good training in the often neglected art of fielding is invalu- able, and the man who shines in this department of the game is al most worth his place for that alone, as he probably saves more runs than the average batsman of the side obtains. He inspires into others un ambition to reach his level, and his prowess in the field not only saves runs indivi- dually but tends to save runs as a unit. The case of Victor Richardson instantly comes to my mind. In the last series of Tests "down under" he was passed over en several occasions. In these in- stances the fielding of the Austra- lians was of a low standard, un- inspiring and slow, but when the South Australian was in the field, the change was almost unbeliev- able. Here was a fearless fields- man willing to do service in any position and to acquit himself creditably. The famous singles of Hobbs and Sutclife were few and far between, there was no half- hearted efforts to save the boun-
