OUR NEW TENNIS "HOPE."

THE CHINA

The Rapid Advance of F. J. Perry.

In England to-day there are two players of exceptional, promise: J. S. Oliff and F. J. Perry, (writes H. W. Austin in the Evening Nows), Olift is, now looked upon as a veteran, but Perry is known as "the rising youngster." Both, however, are the same age-21.

Iremark on this because direct. ly a player has achieved a certain amount of success his age is usual, ly put up by two years every year, so that quite a lot of people look upon Oliff as about 24,

Many people refuse to believe that Betty Nuthall is as young As- she is. I remember, when Betty":

why 16, telling someone she was 16. "That's absurd," they replied, 'she's been sixteen for years!"

Even I this year have been given

the age of 24, while actually I am still strugging at the age of 23!

In this article, however, I am not really concerned with ages, but with F. J. Perry, who, whatever his age, is the latest champion re cruit to English first-class tennis-

A Ping Pong Champion. "Perry the Ping Pong Player," as he used to be known, was go called because he played Ping Pong, not the type of Ping Pong that you and I play on our dining- room tables, but real Ping Pong.

Perry was, in fact, the Ping Pong champion of the world. Maybe you did not know there was

■ Ping Pong championship; maybe never before have you seen a Ping Ponz champion.

But Perry plays Ping Pong no more. The Ping Pong world has lost one of the leading exponents of its game.

Perry now plays fawn tennis instead. At school he was a dab- bier in the game, making good shots with bad rackets, but idly. He was uninspired with the um bition to conquer the lawn tennis world. This state of affairs, how ever, was not to last long.

Soon young Perry saw some first- class exponents of lawn tennis at play. With head on one side he watched critically. "This game," he said to himself, "is really a bet ter game than I thought. I think I'll take it seriously and win the championship."

And so young Perry went to a shop, bought himself a new racket, and started to play the game in earnest.

Then we see young Perry enter- ing for the Evening News Lawn Tennis Tournament." It' would' make a good story to say that Perry won it. But Perry, I am sorry.to say, like other bright stars who have entered for that competition,

got beaten,

At this critical stage of his career Perry's self-confidence stood him in good stand. He was unde- terred. He went on playing, and oven entered for an open tourna

ment.

Perry's Rapid "Advance, From that day his advance has been steady and his rias rapid. And why?

genius

Because he is a player of natural Watch him play. Has he any dificulty in playing? No! Is not his whole game one of ease and rhythm? Yes!

Without doubt Perry is a player of outstanding promise, and a player of

a certala amount of achievement.

Perry is young. strong, and has natural ability. Moreover, Perry has enough self-confidence keep a sinking boat afloat. What is there to prevent him from climbing the heights? In my opinion there is nothing.

He has an easy, well-placed serve, a forehand produced with an English grip with which he can hit the ball to any part of the court with equal ease.

His, backhand is almost as good as his forehand, and both these strokes are weapons of attack.

And Perry does attack making openings with his ground shots for winning volleya.

leap and Jump. This, however, is fault in the right direction. With practice and experience his volleying will become steadier.

they

Improved Ground Shots. At the beginning of this year his ground shats were erratic also, but

luring the last six months havo become almost unrecognis- able in their improved steadiness. Thus we see Perry has all the strokes at his command. He has the stamina and the tempérament for first-class tennis.

Last year Lee and Oliff arose from obscurity into the limelight. This year Perry has appeared. With the advent of these three

players British lawn tennis has begun a new lease of life..

**

We in England unfortunately are always in a great hurry to force our promising players into ed for a champion that our patience champions. So long have we wait-

is short...

We do not say "In five years time that boy will be champion." We wait a year and then wo say: "They boy will never be a cham-

plan."

Material To Beat The World. material that, with patience, will We have in England now the

beat the world. All our players áre young. Boys come from America of 19, 20, and 21 and they beat our boys of the same ago. But in America the boy of 20 is equal to a boy of 24 in this country, Their de velopment la far quicker, and are apt to forget this.

Our foreign opponents at the age of 30 are wearing out. We, at the age of 30, are not wearing out. We have waited long for our champion. Wait yet a little while, our dreams will come true.
