'GODFATHER' PERRY JONES

I am flying to play in the Swedish championships, then to Chiesgo. Then when I go west to California I want to talk to Perry Jones, who has been my tennis fairy godfather since I left Peru.

My whole family are poor. Obviously, I must think hard before I refuse any big offer of dollars which would make my rich.

But right now, in the thrill of wirining Winsbledon, I feel I'd like to come back to defend the championship

You see I got more kick from having my picture taken receiving the cup from the Duchess of Kent, and doing this victory dance with Maria than anything else tennis has given me

So as a man who has never had inoney I'm not thinking of dollars.

That Duchess is swellso kind and friendly and when I looked up and saw Princess Margaret smiling down from the Royal Box I could think only of two things. One wan "What beautiful blue eyes that Princess has." The next thought, which has been with me ever since, was of my father.

I can just imagine my old mother back Arequipa saying to my father: "Salvatore, our boy Alex has become a big shot over there in Europe. Take these pictures down to the tennis club and show them our boy will this bepull- ful Duchess.”

Dollars may come later. But this is enough reward right now. to think how I have pleased my father, mother, brothers, and sisters, and tree other people-George Horten, president of the Peruvian L.T.A., Stanley Singer, the American coach, and a guy named Joo Clandra,

So they collected enough money to send me the cheap way to California by slip from Callao to Havana, by plane from Havana to Miami, and then by cheap bus, a three-day ride, to Los Angeles,

All the time I was frightened. I could speak no English and I wished I'd never left my happy family.

I arrived in Los Angeles with only 70 bucks left. Then met Joe Ciandra, who owns a sports shop, 1 talked to him in sign language. He found me a cheap apartment and took me to night school.

Joe took me to the public parks tennis clubs and lent me rackets and balls,.
