By "Adrem"
A NEW STAR HAS RISEN IN THE LOCAL TEN- NIS FIRMAMENT. HE IS K. H. IP, OF SOUTH CHINA, WHO YESTERDAY CAUSED THE FIRST SURPRISE IN THE CURRENT COLONY TENNIS TOURNAMENT BY BEATING THE EXPERIENCED HO KA-LAU, HERO OF MANY A DOUR CHAM- CONVINCING PIONSHIP GAME, BY THE SCORES OF 6~1, 6~~1.
There was no fluke about Ip's Win From the outset he estab- ished himself as the better play er and he outclassed Ho in practi- cally every phase of the
game Yesterday he concentrated chiefly; on a baseline game and his ac- curacy on both wings, the speed with which he played his strokes. |

One of Ip's most useful strokes was a well-disguised drop shot, which left Ho standing numerous occasions, The South China player's fixture with Esti Yan-pu in the next round should provide one of the finest matches in the tournament and Tsui will be well advised not to take it too easily.

C Chea and A. V. Remedios, a
combination, showed
pro- mising but by no means brilliant form in beating A. H. Harris and H. J Armstrong. Choa is playing as well as he was on the last oc- carion that he appeared in the tournament,
while
Remedios settled down after a shaky start to pruduce some fine strokes.
Feature of the match between Paul Kong and Fung Yee-pui, and T. E. Ling and Frank Kwok was the splendid form of Kong. He was slow to settle down but having dune so he proved himself to be easily the finest player on i the court
His partner Fung gave adequate support but was not called upon to do very much.
Ling and Kwok both hut very hard on the forchani but the former appeared to be right out of touch and never gained com- plete control.
The Agaluroff brothers hast a hard tight against Pang O-lam | and Lee Kam-ming but them steadiness enabled them to win in straight sets, although they were given a great fight in the second. TO-DAY'S MATCHES
