Is the greatest "Shamateurism" menace In the world to good tennis in the opinion of Charles B. Cochran. who has been managing Suzanne Lenglen and other professional tennis stars on a tour through England.

Professional tennis has brought great tennis within the reach of the masses, so Cochran says, and since municipalities have encouraged tennis playing so generally by providing courts there is universal desire to see good tennis at a low cost.
