The Egyptians, too, are very keen and have invited Bergman to Cairo, where the World Champions are to be held next year, for five months in order to coach their players.

Visitors to the Sports Section of the B.I.F. have the opportunity of seeing four English internationals in uction during the next fortnight, namely, Filby, Lurle, Profit and myself. Matches take place three times a day.

Some idea of the popularity of tabic tennis can be gauged by the increasing number of "open" events held regularly in all parts of the country. No fewer than four major tournaments concluded during the week-end, and that at Manchester drew 8,000 spectators.

Four English internationals were opposed by four foreign aces at Belle Vuc and the outstanding English player was Ken Stanley, 18.year-old Manchester youth and junior cham- plon

of England. Although beaten by Bergman (Austria), Stanley played remarkably well and at pres rate of progress his prospects for next season are exceedingly bright.

As I forecast,

Vana (Czecha- Slovakia) became the ultimate win- ner, but he was taken the full Ave sets by Bergman.
