Sweden’s King, Gustav, is 65, but he does not know it. Travelling south on his annual pilgrimage he arrived at Nice. Shortly thereafter the name of Mr. G. appeared in the Nice tennis tournament, scheduled to play in the first round of men’s doubles with William Hunter against Leighton Crawford and Wallis Myers. He was defeated, 6-2, 6-2. It happens so every year. But Nice admires Mr. G.—who is 65 and does not know it.
