SPALDING
for Speed
The all-important factor In modern lawn tennis is speed and yet more speed. Other" things being equal the man with that extra speed wins the match.
The new Spalding laminated multi-ply rackets are the fast- est and most powerful ever produced. They can be strung to the highest possible tension without risk of warping thus giving tremendous pace to the bay as it leaves the racket.
The Spalding range of rae. kets for 1934 · comprises twenty-four attractive models at prices to suit all purses.

presented their ultimatum to the greens committee-4s. for 18 holes, 2s. 6d. for 9 holes. The ultimatum was rejected.
More than 100 players who were waiting to start a mixed foursomes tournament decided to play without caddies, each carrying two clubs.
Carry Own Clubs
A beautiful blonde was the first player. She took her stance and raised her club. Instantly there came a hurri cane of catcalls, barks, and giggles from two score boys ten yards from the tee, while the ball popped weakly upward and trickled 20 yards.
Each succeeding player re- ceived .similar treatment. Drives were terrible and second shots worse.
The caddles reserved their trump card for the 13th hole. Near it is a water hazard-a pond kirted by three fair. ways. The caddies discarded all their clothes, sprang Into the water splashing and way- ing merrily at the players.
A squad of police at length arrived and evicted the water sprites, but not before several women and their enraged es- corts had withdrawn from the tournament.

WHEN a club have a substantial overdraft and they are offered a five-figure transfer fee for a player they are bound to be sorely tempted, but I do not think that this was the reason why Portsmouth released Allen to Aston Villa. They had other matters to consider.
In the first place, they had Salmond, the young High- lander, to fill the centre-half position, and they will pro- bably require a good deal of money shortly to keep the side up to the usual high standard,
