IMITATION MUST BE REAL THING.

Men's Singles.

The first of the day's big matches in the Men's Singles was between Howard Kinsey (Ameri- ca) and Spence (South Africa) in which the former was successful by 6/3, 6/5, 3/6, 6/8. Kinsey, who la an adept at baseline play, came up to the net a lot and with lobs and side-line shots won many Spence was weak in ser- vice and many of his drives were misdirected.

Golf champions are champions because they have watched others. and have carefully developed a game they have found to be the best for them. There is always a bit of individuality about cham- pions in all eports and probably more so in golf than other games. Not one of the topnotchers swings the same as another, yet there is a similarity that comes to all if the foundation is being built carefully.

Ladies' Singles.

In the Ladies Singles Mrs. Godfree (nee Miss Kitty McKane) beat Miss Ryan 1/6, 6/4, 6/0. Mrs. Godfree appeared timid and hesi tating against Miss Ryan in the first set but rallied when the score reached two games all in the second set. She wore down her opponent with relentless accuracy. The first woman player to qualify for the Ladies Singles semi-finala is Sonorita de Alvarez. She defeated Miss Beckingham 6/2, 6/2, who had received a "walk over" from Mlle. Lenglen earlier in the day.
