DUFF PLAYS WELL IN DOUBLES

Shanghai, Dec. 3.

With too much high-grade tennis at their command for the local players, Roderick Menzel and L. Hecht, the touring Davis Cup representatives from. Czechoslovakia, showed a definite superiority over Lewis Carson and W. A. H. Duff in matches, played yesterday afternoon at the Cathay Tennis Club. In the singles encounter, Menzel defeated Carson in straight sets, 6-1, 6-3, 6-1, and in the doubles Menzel and Hecht outplayed Carson and Duff by 9-7, 6-2, 2-6, 6-4.

According to latest advices Roderick Menzel and Hect will not arrive in the Colony until 2 o'clock this afternoon, but it is hoped that this will in no way affect the exhibition tennis matches which have been Ar- ranged to take place on H.K.C.C. at 3.30, and in which the Davis Cup players are taking second team to play White and brought of brilliant
