London, June 27.
Some thrilling, tennis was witnessed at Wimbledon to- day, when sometimes dismal weather conditions unsettled many of the competitors.
The biggest surprise of the day was the elimination of Mia Betty Nuthall in the first round of the women's singles. Mrs. Fearn- fey-Whittingstall adapted herself to the conditions far better than Betty and after losing the first set, established a clear superiority.
In the men's singles, the first of the "seeded" player to be given a pass-out check was De Stefani, This was not unexpected, however. He gained his place in the top alght as the result of his smart' victory over Perry at Autieul, but he proved far less effective gruas and was not in the same street as George Lott, the Ameri- can competitor, who won by three sets to one, after losing the first BRITAIN'S STARS.
