MRS. JAMES STILL PLAYING

Wimbledon, July 5, Half an hour before the men's singles final was due to begin to-day I met Mrs. James, 1933 ladies singles and doubles tennis champion of Hongkong, outside of the main entrance to the Cen. tre Court.
Mrs. James had come up from Paignton to see the Big Match and I found her looking and feeling. very fit. She was keenly interest ed to hear about old friends of the tennis courts in Hongkong and said that it was possible she might return to the Colony some day.
Mrs. James is still playing tennis although she has not yet partici pated in any open tournament of note. However, she is entering 6 for 77for her club championships in August, where, she said, the standard of play is fairly good, but does not quite reach the best in Hongkong.
