SKIPPER WADE GIVES ADVICE AND SHOWS HOW TO DO IT

THE STYLISHNESS OF CHENG

(By "VERITAS".)

Within two hours of stepping off the President Hoover yesterday afternoon the four members of the Shanghai Interport tennis team-J. L. Wade, Gordon Lum, P. Canavarro and Guy Cheng-were attired in whites, and on the practice courts at the Kowloon Cricket Club, were getting down to some serious pre- paration for the coming week-end.

"We are out of practice” said John Wade, skipper of the team, to me, and then proceeded to demonstrate that being "out of practice” does not of necessity mean ons can't play tennis. Shanghai are taking this Inter port contcat very seriously, and are revelling in the fact that they have the next days in which to knock themselves into shape for the matches against Hongkong's select- ed.

And Inter: "Yes. Guy Chetig is without doubt our coming player in Shanglui, and he has made wonder- ful progress this past year,"

Canavarro, hero of numbers of Interport matches, reminded me in a reminiscent moment, that he played his first Interport match 20 years ago.

"And this is going to be my last", he added." "I am begin ning to feel too old for it."

'Signals' First Defeat When they were opposed to the Radio Sports Club during the week- end, the Royal Signals suffered their first defeat in the competition. The game was one of the best yet seen and the champions were fully extend- : ed by the milltary team, particularly in the second half when ench side scored once. The final score was A 4-2 victory in favour of the present holders.

It would be unfair to attempt to arrive at any sort of definite conclusion regard- ing the Shanghai team on yesterday's practice, but it left me with the Impression that although the visitors will shape into a formidablo com- bination, Hongkong's churres of enatching the trophy from them are not inconsiderable.

STYLISH PLAYER. Without anywhere near going all | out, Cheng gave sufficient Indication of his prowess to stamp him as a stylish and hard hitting exponent of tennis. He has plenty of strokes and produces them with vigour born of confidence. A fino player and a dangerous opponent.
