All this tends to give them "swelled-heads." Wim- bledon has spent more than £9,000 In the last year on improvementa, Over half of that sum has brea spent in the enuse of the players.

Miss Belonoshkin and J. Berents entered the final of the Shanghai mixed doubles tennis championship by virtue of their victory over Miss Rynll und A. G. Meise at the French Club by straight sets, with a score of 6-3, 64. They will play the winners of Mrs. Burton and J. L. Wade · and Mr. and Mrs. Khreñov. The winners played a good game and deservedly came out without con- eeding a single set.
