STOCKINGLESS TENNIS
FASHION AT WIMBLEDON Commenting on the all England tennis championships at Wimbledon, an American writer says:The American girls were not alone in their strike against the stocking. Mrs. Satterthwaite has not worn any all this season and was without them when defeating Miss Sterry in three sets, also on an outside court. Little Miss Heeley, too, has consistently played barelegged for some time, but she fell in with the unwritten law all the women seem to have adopted with regard to the centre court, and when she appeared there in a short and attractive mixed with Perry, against Tilden and Fraulein Aussem. her legs were duly covered. As a matter of fact, only those gifted with particularly good sight coulld tell the difference from the stands!
