PROGRAMME FOR TO-MORROW
Several hours of powerful sun and a drying breeze is necessary if the greens are to be fit for play to-morrow, and as the immediate pro- spects are not inclined to promise any such conditions, bowlers had better resign themselves to an afternoon in the club house.
However, if the unexpected should happen, there is a pro- gramme to be fulfilled and a fairly attractive ane at that. Every

London, June 29.
N. G. Farquharson's big moment at Wimbledon is over. He had the satis- faction of providing the first and biggest sensation of the tournament to date by eliminating Fred Perry in the second round, but to-day he made his own exit when he fell a victim to R. Menzel, the Czecho- Slovakian champion.
- Menzel won with such ease in straight sets that it was well nigh impossi- ble to associate Farquhar- son with the same player who had risen to such great heights only two days previously.
