BOROTRA BEATEN IN

GREAT MATCH

Grim Struggle Against Menzel

(Special Air Mall Service)

London, July 2

Sunshine returned to Wimbledon bringing with it enormous crowds and-piece de resistance of the day-s magnificent Ave- set match between Roderich Mensel' and Jean Berótra on the centre court."writes a correspondent,

In the end, after a grim and fluctuating battle of 58 games, of-which 20 were contested in the final bout, "the Czech cham- plen got home.

He was within two points of defeat at one critical stage, and at scarcely any point, considering the fighting quality at bath men, was the issue ‘signalled in advance.

Borotra has been the darling of the centre court gallery 'for more than a decade, and 15,000 spectators cheered their favourite » grain. He deserved their salute, for he was fighting 'not only against a great player, with a heart nearly as large as his own,' bat against the handicap of age.

Borotra Was conceding eight years to an adversary who possess ed a service stronger than his own, retaining its speed to the end, and whose experiênce of a turf court was confined to a dozen matches,

If the famous black beret is never seen in singles again on the centre court its owner may rest content; never in his hey-dey has he made such a gallant effort.

Borotra's finale" in singles at Auteull, on his home courts, where alles are longer and more ex- hausting, was to defeat both Vines, and Allison in the Davis Cup. Ma great match with Menzel, although he lost it in the end, would be a fitting climax to his singles career at Wimbledon.

by his energy and resource—were only the prelude to the crowning act.

Menzel got an early break of the service to lead two-love. He had wisely increased his pressure when Borotra was reacting after his tour de force in the fourth set. -

Then, to prove that his fungs were thoroughly loyal, Borotra was up again, a prince of volleyers, to square the set. He broke through Menzel's service to love, returning service in this game better than he had done in any previous game.

BRILLIANT VOLLEYS

They were level again at 3-all- Borotra netted an easy sinash to lose the" Afth; he made some amazing low volleys, almost somer- salting in the act, to gain the sixth.

The struggle lasted two hours and 20 minutes and there was never a dull moment in it. About

Then the Basque held his own it was the same clash' of per. service from 15-a brillant' line sonality, the same, intensive play. shot fell of the chalk, Menzel lob- the same dramatic fervour that bed out, and Borotra hurled him- one saw in the Borotra-Tiden ) self `at a' rising ball to score a daz match 1930.

But Menzel had his service to even the scor again. Borotra took the ninth from 15 to lead again; he had a net-cord to aid him..

MENZEL'S STRATEGY ・・ The resemblance was heightened in that Menzel has the towering stature of the American and a good deal of his arrogant service power; his ground strokes had not Tilden's technique; the Czech uses more top-spin on his drive on both wings.

CABINET IN GREECE

New Ministers Installed

[Special to the "Hong Kong Dally Pross" (Copyright}.]

· Athens, July 20,

The Cabinet crisis ended yester day evening when M. Tsaldaris 'presented to President, Zaimis a 1st of the new Ministers, who im- mediately

the strengthening of the position of General Kondyl's, especially since the army had let it be known that It would insist on General Kon- dylis retaining his post of Minis- ter of War.

PREMIER TSALDARIS

In these circumstances it was decided merely to reconstruct the Cabinet by dropping those Minis- ters whose antagonism to General Kondylis had brought about the crisis.

The following are the members of the new Cabinet:-

ALARMING RUMOURS

(Special to the "Hong Kong Dally Press" (Copyright):]

Athens, July 19. The dissension, which has arisen within the cabinet over the" ques- tion of the Testoration of the on Friday to the monarchy led collective resignation of Tsaldar's Glavt,, after War Minister Kandy- lis and the Minister of Agriculture, Theotokis had threatened to re-

sign owing to the premier's re- fusal to commit himself on the question of the restoration."

Since all efforts to induce these two ministers to reconsider their decisions proved unavailing. the Premier Insisted : on 蟲 collec- tive resignation,

Tsaldaris to form a new Govern- ment. The eventual changes in the cabinet will probably throw some light on the much debated question whether the Plebiscite criginally fixed for November · 15

President Zalmis ċommissioned

will be held as per schedule or

put off for the time beings

The cabinet crisis gave rise to many alarming rumours, Kondy- lis being for instance -credit- ed with the intention to carry out the restoration by force and with the aid of the Commander of the A'r Fleet, General Keppas and Chief of Staff of the Navy Admiral Economofi.
