ASSOCIATION MUST REFRAIN FROM ANY

SORT OF HASTY DECISION

Lance Corporal W. T. Campbell's participation in the V.R.C. Open Swimming Championships this week appears likely to create a pretty problem, the answer to which the H.K.I.A.S.A., unless they are very careful, may very well have all wrong.

Campbell, it appears, swum in the 880 yards championship with- out the consent of the H.K.I.A.S.A., to which he is affiliated by reason of his membership of the Y.M.C.A.

On the other hand Campbell is also (and primarily) a member of the Army, which is not affiliated to the H.K.I.A.S.A.

The Association consider Camp-. bell has an offence to answer and, It is reported, are going to sit in conclave over the affair.

BOWLING.

A bombshell was dropped by Henri Cochet, the famous French lawn tennis player,when he said after turning professional.

"It is wel known that amateurs to-day are receiving large pay. ments to play in tournaments."

Cochet bluntly stated this in any nouncing his decision to turn pro-i fessional.

And it was high time that some- body should say it. I am glad that the "somebody" has been Cochet, who is respected the world over for his 100 per cent. amateurism, writes Frank Poxon in the News Chronicle.

Ha has always played lawn tennis. for the love of the game and hot for money. And now, frankly and openly, he has come out as a profes- sional.

SHOULD BE PAID openLY, Cochet went on to say that every- thing should be open and above board. Ho contends that "star" players ought to be paid--but openly.

As they draw the crowds, they are, he thinks, entitled to n share of the gate money. So do I; But not under the existing rules,

Everybody with inside know- ledge of the facts knows that a

large proportion of amateurs get woll paid for playing in tourna- ments.

•

I could cite a case of a famous player who was given an offer to turn professional. He glanced at the proposed salary and said: "Oh no; I can make more than that as un amateur!". No wonder the word "Shamateurism" has come to bo associated with lawn tennis..

OFFICIAL DENIAL "English. Amateurs Not Paid"

In a phone conversation with Mr. II. A. Sabelli, the secretary of the Lawn Tennis Association, Frank Poxon drew his attention to Cochet's remarks and he replied:
