Schoolgirl Overcomes Loses £1,038

The Champions At On Davis Cup

Royal Mid-Surrey

(By "Birdio")

BELBOURNE,—It has, been an- nounced by the Australian Lawn Tennis Association that a loss of £1,038 was sustained by the Associa- tion on the Davis Cup Tour last year.

RANKINGS

RUSHING IN from all parts of Britain, and LATEST rankings are:

snatching brief holidays from their war-work, over 130 women golfors, including the champions (past, prosent and future) took part in a grand tournament at the Royal Mid-Surrey course or- ganised by the "Daily Sketch" in aid of the British War Fund just over a month ago.

Included were Miss Pam Barton (the champion), Miss Wanda Morgan (1935 British champion and inter- national), Miss Molly Gourlay (1926 and 1929 English champion and international), Mrs. A. C. Critchley, for- merly Miss Diana Fishwick (1930 British champion, 1932 English champion and international), Miss Doris Cham- bers (1923 British champion and international) and Miss Beatrice Perry (nine times winner of Tasmanian title).

But Miss Maureen Ruttle, 17-year-old schoolgirl at Parkstone, overcame this formidable field with a very fine 75 (two over Par).

How essential practice is Miss Barton learned at the 16th. For a champion to take two out of a bunker mighi cause comment; three mulght create an article-but sympathise with the champion for she took four to get out of the sand at the 16th!

COTTON turned up just

after his wife had finished.

Said Mrs. Cotton: "I have walked 27,329 kilometres watching you play golf, and you can't turn up in time to watch me.

Said Mr. Cotton when asked why he did not carry his wife's clubs:
