SUZANNE EXPLAINS
“A SENSITIVE GIRL.” COURT PRESENTATION. I LONDON, July 5. \ Rule, vivacious, inconspicuously dressed in brown tweed, and carrying cream roses, Suzanne Lenglen left.for * Paris from Victoria platform, the • crowds hot noticing her. Interviewed, she said, “I’m only a girl, not a medieval warrior, thriving on disturbances. This commotion is most upsetting, and I have been very ! miserable.”
Asked about the cancellation of her presentation at court, she said it was because she did not wish to appear in all that splendour with her arm in a sling, owing to rheumatism. She added that she told a friend to telephone Wimbledon on June 23, but he apparently forgot. “Everyone there,” added Suzanne, “seemed to be telling me what a naughty girl I was.. “I was wrong not to scratch, instead of trying to please everybody, and doing the impossible. After all, I am just a sensitive girl.”
