WOMEN'S DAVIS CUP SERIES

CONTINENTALS SUPPORT- ING NEW SCHEME.

AN INTERNATIONAL TROPHY

“LACKING"

A serious effort is being indo by cortain" Continental Inwn, tennis nuthorities

influence to

atber nations in the direction of the formation of the equienleus of a Davis Cup competition for women. France and Germany ard' ospecially kenni on the idea, They believe

· little difficulty would be experienced io ionugurating such a contest be tween the players of, say, Great Britain. Amerion, South Africa. Australia France, Belgium Ger. many, Haly, and Spain, if it were arranged that it should be hell. every second or third year.

Now the only international coa- test for trama of women is for phe Wightman Cap. which is confined": to the players of Grent Britain and the United States. When this trophy was presented in 1923 for the purpose of eneouraging the women's game in the two countries by Mrs. George Wightman (former- ly Miss Hazel Hotchkiss, who was four times singles champion, of America and who captained the Grst United States team against Great Britain) there was little or no indication of the advance" of other nations of first-class status.

The Only Exception. Since then, however, lady players have appoured in every part of the world comparable with any in Great Britain or America, with the sole exception of Mrs. Helen Wills

Moody, Germany, for instance, has conie rapidly to the frontein w remarkable way. At the last Wim- bledon meeting two of her players. Fraulein Cilly Aussem and Ernu-

was started, has proved on many occasions to ba ala even better player than either of them.

In the few international matches in which the German ladies have recently taken part they have been | signally swecessful. 10 they defeated an American tears which included Mrs. Wills Moody and Miss Edith Cross, and a South African combination led by Miss Bobby Heine. Better still in 1920, they finished "all square "; with Great Britain, whose' rèpre- Áontntives were Mrs. L. A. Godfree, Mrs. Boleroft Watson, Miss Phyllis Mudford, and Mrs. Haylock. They Proved in each instance that they could held their own with the play- ers of other nations, and the same claim could be made by others..

A Fins Team,..

Take South Africa, for instance.

A team, the nucleus of which con- sisted of Mra, Pracock, Ming Eathe?' ("Bobby") Heine, Misk “Billy Tapscott, and Miss Doreen Cole would cause both Great Britain and Amories furiously to think.

France, with Mme. Mäthien, Mile. Doris Metaxa, Mile. Dall Vlaato (now Mme, Sierpieri-who defeated" Mr. Godfren in the 1924 Olympic Games), and many youthful" dis- ciples of the great Suzanne Leiglen, is knocking in no uncertain manner at the international door.

Then Australia, with hor Ave timas champion, Miss D. 'Akhurst, now Mra. Ray Cozens, Miss Emily Hood, Miss L. Bickerton, Mrs. Sylvia Harper, and Mrs. Pat „O'Harn Wood, Belgium, led by Me, Sigart, and Holland, headed by Mlle. K. Bouman, would un- doubtedly support such a competi- tion.

It would prove impossible to hold the competition annually, as the case with the, Wightman and Davis Cups, but a scheme that would enable the lady players.of the lawn tennis nations of the world, to meet overy scoond or third year would probably be enthusiastically sup-"
