Joe Anderson is believed by Nor
man Brookes, the famous veteran, to
hold the greatest promise among the
younger players in Australia. He is
said to play an excellent all-around
game with more sp$ed and power
than his teammates. In the Davis
Cup challenge round of 1919, he de
feated F. G. Lowe of England in five
sets, a feat that denotes much ability.
C. V. Todd is the youth who defeated
j Gerald Patterson in the singles cham
! pionship of New South Wales last win
ter. Jack Hawks, a left-handed boy
of 20, is also brilliant, possessing a
puzzling twist service and a ground
stroke and net game which is more
than fair.

youth. Lowe and Turnbull have play

Tokio, July 22. Changes, democrat
ic in nature, will probably be made
for the court life of Japan and in the
relations of the Imperial family to the
people, as a result of the visit or
Prince Hirohito to , Europe. It is
likely that he printing of photographs
of members of the Imperial family in
newspapers and magazines will be per
mitted. The military guards' -which
are always established on the occasion
of a visit of a member of the imper
ial family to any place outside he
palace will also be simplified, if the
suggestions which have been formula-j
ted by officers of the Imperial House
hold are accepted.
According to one report, the house
hold department requested the Crown
Prine to inquire while he is abroad as
to the customs which are followed in
the royal family of Great Britain and
as to the social works which are un
dertaken by them. It is assumed that
these custom's and practices which ex
ist in Great Britain will be adopted
here following the Crowrf Prince's
