TRIUMPHS AND FAILURES FOR JAPAN
Swept The Board In Swimming But Ousted At Table-Tennis
MARATHON TOP EVENT YESTERDAY
Tokyo, May 29. Japan's near monopoly of trophics in the Third Asian Games continued 'today with another rich harvest of ten gold medals, including six for swimming, but Japan's trium- phant victory march came to a sudden stop in the table tennis tournament, when both world - ranking Japanese doubles pairs were wiped out of the competition by Na- tionalist China and Vietnam.
The defeat of the internationally reputed Japanese aces in the table tennis was the surprise upset of the day. This was the second bitter pill for Japan's table-tennis pridė - a sport in which they have won many world titles and in which they were regarded as probably the best in the world.
