PAMPERED TENNIS STARS
WHY THEY BECOME SWOLLEN-HEADED
No players are more pampered than the lawn tennis "otari” of
to-day. Internationals from
abroad, and oven our Own nominated players, aro taken in hand as soon as they arrive at Wimbledon, and from then till the time of their departure, a fort- night hence, their lives are mado as comfortable as can be, writes S. N. Doust, the. Daily Mail lawa tennis correspondent.
Wimbledon, which is the biggest international tournament in the world-there were twenty-ave nations competing this year-- leads the way for hospitality, but whether it be Wimbledon, Paris Berlin or New York, players aro treated an gods and in some casco. are made to feel that they are in- dispensable. All this tends to give them "awelled-heads." Wim- bledon has spent more than £9,000 In the last year on improvements. Over half of that sum has been spent in the cause of the players. Since 1922, the date of the opening of the New Wimbledon, money has flowed like water on alterations in the structure-outside and in- side mainly for the extra com- fort of players,

J. Berents entered the final of the Shanghat mixed doubles tonnis championship by virtue of their victory over Miss Ryall and A. G. Melse at the French Club by straight sets, with a score of 6-3, G-4. They will play the winners of Mrs. Burton and J. L. Wade and Mr. and Mrs. Khrenov. The winners played a good game and deservedly came out without con- ceding a single set.
Berents was good in general Je had a strong service which he Insed to great advantage, although he dropped one game. His net play was impressive, with deadly smuslics. His partner VAS trifle weak, especially in her ser- vices and backhand returns. Sho Kave Berents many anxious mo- ments in the second set when they were two games down at the start.
