MRS. JAMES STILL PLAYING

(By "Veritas").

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 Con- tre Court.

Mra. James had come up from Paignton to see the Big Match and I found her looking and feeling very ft. She was keenly interest ed to hear about old-friends of the tennis courts in Hongkong and Bald that it was possible Bho 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 for her. club championships in August, where, she said, the standard of play is fairly good, but does not quite reach the best in Hongkong.

She wished to be remembered to all friends in Hongkong and added "The best of luck to the Hongkong ladies in the Interport this year."

Mrs. James Is herself an old Interporter. She first played in 1929 and again in 1951. She won the ladies singles title of the Colony In 1933 after twice before reaching the final, and in the same Minghi Arst innings year she carried of the ladies
