BAD hosts are born and not made; not everyone can make a failure of a tennis party. Nevertheless there are certain-observances which may be relied upon to reduce the chances of success. -

For instance, do not rall the court before the guests arrive. Let them do it themselves while you maintain a flow of good-humoured banter.

Do not mend the holes in the wire-nesting. Searching for balls in the middle of a ding-dong game is a great fermenter of temper.

AND ABOVE ALL, do not on any account provide tong ice-cold drinks of Rowe's Lime Juice for between-the-sets refreshment. If the imperfect host were to forget by chance this cardinal rule of Inhospitality, the sharp and utterly satisfying tang of Nature's most thirst-quenching drink could not fail to produce content.

After a long battle with the eblet prosecutor. Brigadier Azemadeh, Dr Mossadegh won a ruling from the court Chair- man that the prosecutor must not call the ex-Premier an in- ndel.

Dr. Mossadegh is being tried on charges-of trying to over- throw the constitution.
