an opportunity to see the Japanese in
CHAMPIONSHIPS. and after the titular
tournament Kumagai and Mikami will
return 10 the Pacific Coast bv another
route, playing occasional matches prior
TO cmbarking for Japan.
Apparently this will be the only in
vasion of foreign athletes during the
coming season and, because OF the
prominence and ability of the japanese,
should attract far more than usual at
tention to the leading court tourna-
ments of the summer. since both Ku-

demonstrated their ability to hold their
own across the net with the ranking
players of the United States. As far
