Moscow, Sept. 28.
The Soviet government agreed today to allow Japan to raise territorial claims against Russia even after diplomatic relations between the two countries had been restored and ambassadors exchanged.
The Japanese special envoy, Mr Shunichi Mat- sumoto, said that Soviet agreement to this had now made it possible for the Japanese Prime Minister, Mr Hatoyama, to come to Moscow about October 10 for talks with Soviet Premier Marshal Bulganin on the re-establishment of relations.

How not to give
a Tennis Party
BAD hoata are born and not made; not everyone can make a failure of a tennis party. Neverthelem there are certain observancei which may be relied upon to reduce the chances of sudocre.
For instance, do not roll 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 wiró-pening. 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 long loo-oold of Rose's Lime Juice for between-the-gets refreshment. If the Imperfect host were to forget by chance this cardinal rula of inhospitality, the sharp and utterly sailsfying tang on Nature's most thirst quenching drink, couki nos fail to prodition content. The party would be a success.
