VERSATILE NEW CAPTAIN

Winter Scene At Wimbledon

1935.

PRACTISING ON "HARD COURTS

Wimbledon is by no means so dond In the winter months as most people would imagine. Besides the improve- ments continually being made for the benefit of the publle and the players when the Championship Fortnight comes along at the end of June, there is plenty of practice going on, every day on the hard courts.

Manzell I kopt very busy giving coaching to young players selected by the LTA. from competitors in "Junior" tournaments, and giving penciler to some of our first-class players who are dealrous of keeping it and gotting ready for the scARDE of 1935. Among the latter, Miss M. C. Berlvon and Miss B. Nuthall are often to be seen on the hard courts, in pursuit of Wimbledon honoure which have, as yet, cluded

as a free-lance and not a member of the team representing this country- and Mies Nuthall is the only girl out aide the U.S.A. who has ever won the Amerlenn singles championship. Both of them have plenty of pluck: but too often style lete the one down. and service the other.

Another player who is determined to reach the front rank is Miss Susan Noel, who has laid down the laurels she yon on the squash rackota courts in order to concentrate entire- ly on the summer game. A power- ful player, with a sound knowledge of tactics, her failing at present is an apparent inability to go on and win her matches when she has, so to speak, got them won. She will no doubt learn how to reserve her Kources inore, and how to throw them all in at the crials of her matches. I shall expect to see her high up in the Ranking Lint at the end of next season.
