HENRI COCHET DELIGHTS

Yesterday's Tennis

Tennis of a standard which has Lever before been seen locally was provided for a large number of spectators. yesterday on the K.C.C. ground" when the first Professional Tennis Exhibition games were held. Henri Cochet, the idol of the French millions, F. Aragon, of the Philippines, and R. Canavarro of Shanghai all gave a very delightful exhibition of tenni and the Frenchman and the "Filipino in particular evoked rounds of ap- plause for their fine all round dis- play.

Cochet showed that he is still a player of no mean ability, and his agility on the court was astound-

He appeared to be every- where at the same time and "his duels with Aragon in the doubles match was a feature of the after- noon's sport.

Aragon started the programme rolling by trouncing A. N. Another. 6-2, 6-2. The game lasted just 30 minutes. In this match Aragon

Hayward's eleven had first use of the wicket, Major Bonavia and Richardson opening to Bowker and Garthwaite. It was very soon evident that batsmen were going to have a difficult time of it....Bowkër could not find, a length but Richardson played him with the utmost caution for a palden over. Bonavia then faced Garthwaite whose first bal was a beauty, being of perfect length and swinging away. The batsman played forward, was beaten by the swing and E, C.

THE LEG TRAP Meanwalle Garthwaite continued to bowl dangerously on the middle and leg stumps with three short legs and eventually, Richardson, an playing a ball to leg. put up a dolly catch to McInnes who made no mistake. That was the last good ball with which Garthwaite took a wicket Ernie Fincher- got a rank long-hop and turning round to pull it, had completed his stroke

before the ball arrived to hit him on the pad for an b.w. decision. Gosano took a terrific crack at a full-loss outside the leg stump and was bowled off his pads, and in so doing, I imagine, played himself once and for all out of the inser- port side. His form in all of the Trials, especially with the bat, has been mos: disappointing.

He is without doubt, one of the Anest Club cricketers in the Colony, be- ing a dashing bat, a dangerous bowler and a brilliant field but he does not seem able. in matches of this description, to forget, that he 1s on trial.
