From a copy of The North China Held just to hand, hacks gather that Batse, the leader of the California tennis four, mat and defeated Parbary of Shang- hai by three straight sets on the 11th fast, at the Cercle Sportif. A return match was played a few days later before a very large ga bericz, and again Bates -won, taking the odd set in five. I do not know in what part of the tennis firmament of Shang- hai is Parbury shining. but he was for many years the cham- pion of Hankow, and, whilst on A visit to Shanghai in 1918, mat and defeated Toussaint, the well. known Dutch player. The winner over Parbury in two consecutive contests is no tyro at tennis, and a match between Bates and the local champion should appeal to all lovers of this popular gama, And it is my humble opinion that this golden opportunity to provide the public with classic tennis should not be missed.
