PROFESSIONAL GAME DISCUSSED United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright (Received December 18, 10 p.m.) FREMANTLE, December 18. Mr Wallis Myers, the well-known tennis authority, is a aboard the Maloja. When interviewed Mr Myers expressed the opinion that F. J. Perry’s recent defeat by A. K. Quist was due to some extraneous cause. Mr Myers said he did not think that professionalism would extend in tennis to the same extent as in golf. He added that the best interests of the game would be served by the maintenance of amateur status in tennis. Mr Myers will attend the Australian championships at Melbourne next month.
