"England isn't exactly violating the rule, but still I'm sure it wasn't the intent of the federation to permit a player to live on tennis 365 days of the year the way Perry is apparently | doing. That's over-doing it."

The date of her departure will | enable her to compete in earlier Itournaments and thus get used to
English courts.
The Senorita has always want- ¡ed to compete at Wimbledon.
It was actually decided to send her last year, but arrangements fell through.
She is 20 years old, was former- ly a ball girl and was actually born on a tennis court--in a thatch- ed hut shelter in the corner of onc of the courts of a Santiago aurbur |hun sports club where her father
was the manager.
La Rolita, as a child' showed a great natural aptitude for the game which induced a leading so- ciety woman to pay for her lawn tennis training.
