warded for his effort by the Mayor of Dover, who presented him with a gold cup.
Temme has also made the cross- ing from France to England and is the only person to have swum the Channel in both directions.
If he can beat Gustave Humery, the Frenchman who gained a surprise victory over Cleto Locatelli in Paris last Monday, Berg may be matched with Barney Ross, the American' and world's light-weight champion.,
It is possible that we may see this fight at Olympia next January. But everything, of course, depends on Berg beating Humery in a contest for the European title.
THIS QUICK CHANGE OF OUTLOOK FOR BERG FOLLOWS ON HIS BRITISH LIGHT-WEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP SUCCESS. OVER HARRY MIZLER AT THE ALBERT HALL.

SURPRISING RESULT AT DULWICH
AMERICAN EXTENDED BY CATER
MIKI'S FAREWELL MATCH
(By A. WALLIS MYERS)
LONDON, OCT. 27. BOTH MATCHES IN THE SEMI-FINAL OF THE SURREY COVERED COURT CHAMPIONSHIP AT DULWICH YESTER- DAY PROVIDED SURPRISES.
The contest between D. Preng and R. Miki was expected to be an attractive struggle; actually the Pole beat the Japanese in two love sets in less than twenty minutes.
Then few spectators anticipated that D. N. Jones, the Ameri- can express server, who had played an exciting match with Boro- tra last week, would find himself in jeopardy against L. E. Cater, the old Brightonian, who has represented Sussex county. Cater not only won a love set, but took four games in the deciding set.
