A tired Helen Jacobs and an over- awed Mrs. Sarah Fabyna proved no match for Miss Kay Statimers and Miss Freda James in the final of the women's doubles. Britain thus tained a 1935 title, as she did when Fred Perry and Dorothy Round beat Donald Badge and Mrs. Fabyan after a very hard match to annex the mixed doubles championship.

The display of Frank Wilde and Charles Hare against Hughes and Tuc key in the final of the men's doubles was highly encouraging.

By the way so far the United States has been beaten only twice out of a gold medal in the high hurdles at Olympic Games. The other non- U.S.A. winner outside Alkinson was E. J. Thomson, Canada, who won the event at Antwerp, 1920,
