...Snatch" last week was sitting up in bed at Shanghai, surrounded by flowers, cablegrams and congratulatory letters. His doctors permitted him to walk about his room and receive visitors. A warship waited to take Sir Hughe to a swank resort in The Netherlands East Indies for final convalescence-and still the Japanese Government, far from having made the "fullest redress" demanded by the British Government, had not yet officially replied to London's charge that it was a Japanese war plane which suddenly swooped down on the Ambassador's car and shot "Snatch...
...operation with the French Navy and use of its bases in the Mediterranean by the British fleet. Last week the decisions reached fortnight ago at Nyon for naval co-operation by Britain and France to patrol the Mediterranean and destroy "pirate submarines"* (TIME, Sept. 20), were whipped into final shape at Geneva by the two foreign ministers chiefly concerned, Britain's Anthony Eden and France's Yvon Delbos.

...only outcome capable of confounding the Forest Hills authorities more than an all-foreign final was to have Anita Lizana beat touted Jadwiga Jedrzejowska, a Warsaw typist whose powerful forehand had been strengthened by beefsteak breakfasts, for the championship. Miss Lizana had beaten Miss Jedrzejowska twice before this season in Europe, but Miss Lizana prefers ice cream and candy to meat. Consequently it came as a surprise to most spectators when she proceeded to give the sinewy Pole a third trouncing by pounding her slow backhand, catching her flat-footed with deft drop-shots, 6-4, 6-2.
