BOTH SINGLES
--DIVIDED
Four days of almost continuous wet weather made it a practical certainty that the London chum- pionships tournament at Queen's Club must resolve itself into a "get-as-for-as-we-can" meeting, for the entry was so large and so good that to finish all the events was, humanly and humanely, impossi ble. Indeed, great credit is due to the management for so nearly reaching a definite conclusion in all events. It was, naturally, un- fortunate that this year there will be no singles champions of London; but with their other engagements, those who reached the semi-finals would have bad too much to do, and it was therefore deckled that only the semi-finals should be played, and the duala divided.

Mies Noel, playing coolly and well, took the first set, but the Chilean went away from three all in the second, to win it. At the start of the third, however, she became very erratic, repeatedly hitting out of court, and Miss Noel reached 4-- love. But from that moment, the great heat of the afternoon was too much for her. She tired rapidly; and Senorita Lizana, sens- ing her chance to pull the match out of the fire, piled on game after game without reply, until she had won six off the reel, and with them
