Paris, Saturday.

The following were the results of the semi-final matches in the Ladies' Singles Championship here to-day:-

Nuthall Misa Betty

bent Fraulein Krahwinkel 6-1, 6-2.

Fraulein Aaspen bent Senorita

de Alvarez 6-4, 7-5.

Paris, Yesterday.

British hopes were raised as the result of Betty's hollow victory in the semi-final and it was thought highly probable that she would carry off her third title, but all hopes were rudely dashed to the Fround when Betty Nuthall lost in straight sets in the final.

Fraulein Aussem, considered to be Germany's leading lady expon- ent, dated a singgering surprise by defeating the British girl so easily in the second set after a very hard fought opening set. The final scores were 8-6, 6-1 în favour of Fraulein Aussem.

Hetty led at 5-4 in the first set, but at this point the German girl gained the upper hand, drew level, aud captured the fourteenth game without the loss of a point to give her the first set.

an

The second set witnessed amazing collapse on the part of Betty Nuthall-her opponent hav- ing matters ail her own way. The 'British girl scemed to have lost her nerve and was steadily worn down by her opponent.

Paris, Yesterday,

In the Men's Singles Champlon- ship final Jean Borotra beat C. 'Boussus, a. compatriot, in the all- French final by 2-6, 6-4, 7-5, 6-4.
