This is the naval officers' initial attempt at the championship. and they did very well in beating M, K, Lo and M. W. Lo, doubles chunpions in 1920, after, a closo shave, in the first roul, and in the second and third rounds showed up distinctly favourably. They are n well combined pair. I have been impressed by thair enterprising tactics, which are refreshing to watch, in contrast to the safety first policy adopted by most of the pairs in the tournament.
Dashing Player.
Both are tall and possons long reach, so that it is difficult to pass Packer or lob over them at the met. is a dashing player who displays great determination in matches. He has the ability to hit hard and nt the same time keep the ball low, so that unless his opponents are reliable at vallering, it is not easy to meet his shots at the net. Ground strokes and overhoad work
are his strongest points Shaw does not seem to ho so impressive. as Packer, but from his performances he appears to me to be a sound all Found player, whose ability at volleying is 'n source of worry to the opposing pair. Ho acoms also to possess a good eye. as he hits the ball with good judgment,
