CREAM OF JAPANESE TENNIS AT HONGKONG CRICKET CLUB

(By “Veritas")

A thousand tennis fans crowded the stand court at the Hongkong Cricket Club yesterday afternoon, and for two hours were held spellbound and fascinated by one of the most spectacular displays of tennis they have ever been priveleged to watch.

They were there to study and revel in an exhibition by Jiro Satoh, H. Nunoi and E. Ito, the cream of Ja- panese tennis, and hailed as the most powerful combination ever sent from Japan to complete in the Davis Cup, and it is inconceivable that any one of them left the court disappointed.

The nest tennis ever seen in the Colony left as an indelible stamp on the memories of the spectatura to. singles match between Satoh and Nunci.

NEW CONCEPTION.

We, in Hongkong, who are some what out of touch with the rapid development of the modern game of tennis, were afforded a new conception of the high degree of artistry "the game has now reached thanks largely its ever-growing international characteristics.

We were shown the need for perfection in touch, the necessity for complete physical fitness, and the methods used to obtain the greatest possible maximum of speed and accuracy with the minimum: amount of physical expenditure.

We had glimpses of Wimbledon centre-court tennis, which means tennis at its very best. REMARKABLE DEVELOPMENT.

Those who had never seen either Saton of Wuno in 'uction before must have marvelled that such young players could attain the high standard they displayed, but others who remember their practices at the K.C.C., and the Club in 1931 and last

The Rumjahris found the pace too and hat when they opposed Satoh Nunoi in the last doubles of the day, although H. D., met the Japanese halfway in their volleying campaign, and once or twice came cut on top.

The deadly smashing of Nundi and the clever angle volleys of Satoh left the local chumpions | paralysed.

As S.A. Rumfahn sald to me afterwards "Usually we concentrate on where we are going to put the ball, but to day-we were glad to be able to reach it and make a re- turn."

Goldman drove well in partner ship with Nunot against Ito

and Fincher and his game seemed to im prove with the occasion. Ito took a lot of

of work away from Fincher, who was able to give but passing glimpses of his form.
