Guy Cheng, once China's best on the tennis courts in his hey-day is now making good in another field. News has come to hand that the former Davis Cupper has been awarded the degree of Bachelor of Business Administration at Tulane University in New Orleans.

Local tennis enthusiasts will re- member with particular interest that Cheng played for Shanghai against Hongkong in the Interport.

A veritable clash of giants is brewing between the pennant for the big battle will be announced. A most suitable time would be the conclusion of the International Series when, with fan in- terest at the lowest possible ebb, this game of the year will serve as a fitting finale of another ground baseball scason-one of the best I've seen in a long time.
