ed his share to the Australian vic- tory by beating the Japanese Arst string.
Satoh beat Crawford by three
sets to two (3-6, 6-3, 6-1, 1-6, 6-2) on the court on which Crawford recently became champion of France, and on which he himself could win few games from him in the semi-final round of the French Championship. To-day, however, he was opposed to a player who seemed to take little interest in the match and the sting of whose shots was neutralized by the damp court. At times Crawford was the master of his opponent, but more often be fell into those lapses so familiar to him. He looked tired, and had good reason to be so after his strenuous run of play lately. Crawford found the speed of Satoh's drive on the forehand too good for him in the middle of the match and when, in the last set, he made a determined effort, he found that his touch had deserted him. Satoh, whose tacties were extremely clever, deserved his vie tory.

WHITECOMBE'S FINE SCORE
R. A. Whitcombe again accomp lished two remarkable rounds when the West of England section of the P..A. held their qualifying com petition for the News of the Worki £1,040 tournament at Parkstone yesterday. He led the three quali: fiers with the amazing total of 120 for 36 holes, made up of rounds of 63 and 4G. On the previous day he had returns of 60, 63, and 66, while winning the West of England Open Championship, the last of those three rounds being in: the ra play with his brother E. R. Whit- combe. For the five consecutive rounds, therefore, he had an gregate of 327, or 33 better than an average of *'* The course measures only 5,527 yards, but this does not detract from the merit of
Whitcombe's truly admirable per

UNSUITABLE FOR BANDIT
SUPPRESSION
(From Our Special Correspondent)
CANTON, July 5. With the three renegade cruisers approaching South China waters to-day, the Southwest Political Council has made no definite deck- sion to deal with these war craft apart from the formal statement of Vico-Admiral Chang, Chi Ying, chief of the Canton naval flotilla, who said that he has nothing to de with these ships.
It is understood that the three" Chinese, men-of-war, Haichi, 'Hai- bsin and Shaoho, are attempting to throw in their lot either with the Fukien authorities or Canton, provided a sum of about $800,000 per month will be paid to them for maintenance expenses
The captains of the three war- ships have turned against Admiral Shen Hung Lieb, commandant of the northeast equadrón, and concur- rently Mayor of Tsingtao.
Canton is unable to support, and does not need, such big oruiers, your correspondent learned to-day, The three cruisers are too old and do not carry sufficiently heavy ar maments for naval defence of South China, while their draft (about 15 feet) and tonnage (about 3,000 tons)
are not suitable suppression of river bandits.
The National Government, it is said, is anxious to induce, the three warships to join the Chinese squadron at Shanghai under the direct control of the Ministry 'of Navy.,
