LADY TENNIS CHAMPION
NOW'A MANNEQUIN. The ‘‘ London Weekly Dispatch” says:— *• Many have 'wondered how Mile. Suzanne Lenglen, whose parents enjoy only moderate means, is enabled to carry on without losing her amateur status. Now it is revealed that Suzanne has become a mannequin in the Tamous Fansian firm of Jean Paton, which makes her two-piece sports suits, sweaters, suk pleated tennis costumes, scarves, evening gowns, and cloaks. Jean Paton is doing a roaring business in feminine sports clothes because Suzanne goes everywhere in the smartest society, and dances herself to a standstill. Off the courts, she is a graceful figure, and makes an excellent mannequin. " It is hoped that there, is no tennis law against the champion becoming a mannequin, because her father ia still very ill. Suzanne docs much to keep things going. ’ ’
