The Shanghai teams are yet unknown though it is almost certain that W. A. H. Duff, the former Canadian Davis Cup player and captain of the side, Khoo Hooi-hye, an ex-champion of Malays, and Gordon Lum, a past Shanghai champion, will be the Men's Singles players, while Khoo and Lum and Duff and J. L. Wade will comprise the doubles team.

The last Ladies' Interport can- test was staged in Hong Kong in November, 1929, and resulted in a Hong Kong victory by the odd match in three. Hong Kong the most recent men's Interport on Hong Kong soll when the 1929 team won by 3 matches to 2.

A. L. Sullivan, the Club Cham- ¡plon last year and this year's run- ner-up, is not in good enough form to offer a serious challenge for the third singles place. His form in partnership with Andrews agŝinst the Rumjahn cousins was far from impressive.
