TENNIS WITHOUT A PUNCH.
“DAMN” FISHER'S C’EITICJSAf
(Aust. and N.Z. Cable). London, Sept. 20
Air F. M. 15. Fisher, the New Zealander, ex-Commissionor of Customs in the Massey Cabinet, and a prominent tennis player, declares that. English' tennis players lack the bright, alert, and vivacious sparkle inseparable from hard-hitting play. V\ hat does it matter it they serve an occasional double fan It ■' That is not ; crime. He had seen Gerald Palteison serve six double laults in a single game, yet he won tbc game. It was audacious, ferocious, and impuddnt tennis, but such storming tactics broke the enemy's defence. There seemed to be a reign ol terror among Knglish players, wlio are at raid to adopt the hard-hitting habit.
