The committee explained ex-plained that It had decided legislation at a time when foreign countries could not be- represented would be unfair. The plan to Inject & strict rule defining de-fining an amateur Into the rules of the association was also held up, but it will come In for an altlrtff at the annual meeting meet-ing of the tennis body here In February. The rAnklnsr of players, it is believed, will meet with general approval all over the country. Borne tennis followers may have been surprised at the ranking of . I,! Kumapae, who was placed fifth In the first ten, but the ranking committee did not pet a precedent, as foreign players have been ranked among the first ten before, and the ranking of Miss Moila PJurdstedt of Norway, who lends all of the women players, was a thing to be expected.
