PERRY'S TRIUMPH AT

WIMBLEDON

CHAMPION'S SPEED TOO MUCH FOR VON CRAMM HUGHES AND TUCKEY DEFEATED

(By A. WALLIS MYERS)

London, July 6.

J. PERRY is still champion, and the title

F. which he regained for England last year

remains at home.

In a match of super-speed, lasting $0 minutes and bristling with gorgeous shots, the holder resisted the German challenge of Baron G. Von Cramm without losing a set. His score was 6-2, 6-4, 6-4.

Wimbledon has yielded many closer and more fluctuating finals in the past. These have been matches in which net play has taken a more conspicuous part.

But for the sustained pace of the ground shots, for re- fined, accurate driving, and for the thrusting power with which both men fought-Perry always a little quicker about the court than his rival--I cannot remember any contest quite like it.
