America, France, Australia And Japan In Men's Semi-Final

SATOH IN STRANGE SERVICE EPISODE

FOUR

(By A. Wallis Myers.)

London, July 4.

OUR countries America, France, Australia, and Japan will be represented in the semi-final round at Wimbledon. The failure by England to win a place in the last four, although not altogether unexpected by students of relative form this year, was the only cloud on another crowded and animated day.

Landon elected to offer two of its residents a temperature per fect for the social rendezvous. But the heat was too exacting for both Hughes and Austin. Their respective conquerors, Crawford and Saloh, seemed to revel in it; it extracted their best game.
