It is rather odd that neither of them should have done great nings at Wimbledon, seeing how well they have played abroad. Big Scriven han two singles championships of France to her credit-it will be re- membered that her first was won as a free-lance and not a member of the team representing this country- and Miss Nuthall is the only girl out. side the U.S.A. who has ever won the American singles championship. Bota ot them have plenty of pluck: but too often style le's the one down, and service the other.
Another player who is determined to reach the front rank is Miss Stan Noel, who has laid down the laurels she won on the squash rackets courts in order to concentrate entire- ly on the summer game.
