AUSTIN SCORES A QUICK VICTORY OVER CHINESE

London, June 20.

H. W. Austin became the London grass court champion for the first time at Queen's on Saturday. Decisively beaten by Budge's speed in the final last year (writes A. Wallis Myers) hia victory over Kho Sin Kic, who had deprived him of the British hard court championship at Bournemouth, was almost as quick.

Indeed, there was only one brief perled in a one-sided contest when the Chinese player appeared to be fighting on level terms. This was after Austin had scored the first Kho braced after a three ames, Jethargic start, and, taking two games by n

a third in strokes, should have won which he was forty-love.

Fading here he never jgnited in the picture again. His forehand drive, under Brm control on a sand court, became loose and tinproiltable when bandling the lowflying shots of an opponent who

POLISH CHAMPION'S RECORD

Mlle. Jedrzejowska had a strange afternoon at Queen's. She was in three linals, and she won her singles against Mrs. Sperling so majestically and with such burning speed that ther hat trick looked probable.

But in the doubles her alance with Miss Muriel Themins and after- word with Mako did not prosper In both finals Mrs. Miller held the winning cards and played them with beautiful precision.

In the women's event she and Miss Morphew discovered after the first
