Summary
Pathe Intertitles - "In view of Suzanne’s latest move, on whom will amateur mantle fall? One possibility is undoubtedly Senorita Lili D’Alvarez."
"In many ways the charming Senorita reminds one of Suzanne, but don’t think her service is as slow as this picture!".
"Her forehand, sweeping and accurate ..."
"Always on the move".
"And a graceful and accurate backhand."
"But, whether returns are low or high the Senorita displays the same agility as that which took her into the final at Wimbolden this year."
