eye on the ball. This is good advice in all games where a moving sphere is the point at issue. One cannot watch the ball too closely. To illustrate how important is this advice, it may be said that the success of Mrs Lambert-Chambers is at- tributed largely to her intanse concentration on the ball from the moment it leaves the racket of the server until it reaches a suitable place to be hit. The moment for a stroke, of course, varies widely according to which "shot" the situation dictates.

The time to drive is the fractional moment when the ball hangs at the top of the bounce, Some player notably Norris Williams, the well-known Ameri- can, use a whip drive, which meets the ball as it rises from the bounce. This method has one advantage in that it allows an opponent less time to anticipate the return. No shot requires a more exquisite perfection of tim- Mrsing-
