(Copyright. See notice on page 47)
This afternoon and again tomorrow (at 3 o'clock) listeners are to hear the progress of play in the Wightman Cup competition, that annual event between British women and American women, played in alternate years at Forest Hills, New York, and at Wimbledon. America have now won it five times in succession, with a total of nine wins to Britain's four.
The Wightman Cup ushers in the international lawn tennis season, which will continue with the championships at Wimbledon in ten days' time.
