This is one of a series of stories in which Vincent Richards analyzes the chances of countries other than the | United States in the Davis Cup com- | petition this year. 'HE team that beats England in the preliminary Davis Cup ties abroad will play the winner in the American zone for the honor of challenging | France. This is the way the situation |in another large tournament overzeal- | R Chips From the Mapleways BY R. D. THOMAS. OHN P. EVANS, who promoted the recent Bill Wood Sweep- stakes, did a first-class job, but it was even better than appeared on the surface. Bowling promoters are wont to meas- ure success by the number of partici- pants, and usually pay little attention to entry deadlines and other things that | might cut down the field. In one major event this season play was delayed for nearly an hour while| tardy entrants were being lined up, and | ous entry solicitors talked many into| signing applications who had little or no intention of competin; In this one about one-fifth of the “field” existed on paper only, and the schedule resulted in a mess. Evans corralled 118 pin-shooters for the Wood stakes of 1930, where there had been only 80 in 1929, and an even dozen late applicants were turned down. Twelve others were barred because Evans believed they didn’t belong. The tournament was arranged ostensibly for looks to me on the Western front in these international matches for | the premier honors of tennis. 1t has been so long since England got | into the Davis Cup challenge round | that one would have to look up the | records to see when it was. Once the | dominant power in the game, England went into a decline shortly before the | start of the war and onlg in the last eouple of years has she begun to re-| The last time a British team | played in the challenging round' wa 1919, and no Enflishmln has won the | championship of his country since 1909. | Bunny Austin is the great hope of | England today. A beautiful stylist, | Austin has come along rapidly in the | Iast few years, and all he needs to de- velop into one of the world's great| players is a little more stamina. Last year he beat Frank Hunter at Wimble- don and many critics rank him among the, first 10 players of the world. He's a Model Player. Austin has never been able to show at his best in the United States, so American fans have little idea of Low really good a player he is. Some of our own young stars would do well to take him as a model, for his form is beauti- ful. With Austin, England also will put into the field J. C. Gregory and possibly | Edward Higgs, I G. Collins and E. C. |} Peters. Gregory beat Hunter in the| international matches with the United| St States at Forest Hills in 1928 and he is one of the most rapidly improving play- try. Higgs also are well known to United States tennis followers, while Peters is the young man who startled the tennis world by beating Bill Ti'den on the Riviera early in February in straight sets. No one over here ever had heard of Peters before, and this shows how the young players of Eng- land are improving. ‘The improvement in the English mymhwbe-tmwmmmnm far-sighted policy of the tennis as- sociation lish nother factor has been the coach- ing of Karel Kogeluh, little Czecho- slovakian who holds the world profes- sional title. For the last two years Kozeluh has been coaching the English Davis Cup squad and he has done fine England Was Upset.

Last year’s setback should make Eng- land all the more dangerous this year. She will have all her best players available, and it is only logical that they should be better players than a r ago. ’!"l'hrnulh the draw England will face one of her toughest matches of the| g, European zone play in the very first round. She is bracketed with Germany and must be at full stre to carty the day. But the odds sl d be in England’s favor and I look for her to Australia, Japan and Italy are other powerful contenders to be reckoned with in this zone, and if England can come through them all, as she has a good chance of doing, she should make it hot for the United States in the in- terzone match. I would not be surprised to see Eng- | land get into the challenge round in the event the United States is repre- sented by an entirely young team.

The Greek team totaled 1,251 to 1,168 for the Italians. A count of 180 by Chaconas made the record game possible. With 18 in his second box Nick struck in his third, and then came through With twa spares. Next he ripped off a triple-hegder strike, missed in his ninth box and finished with a spare. Pantos had high set at 648. Pacini, however, defeated Pantos, 634 to 589, in the first block of a singles clash. Pantos protested the referee’s de- cision when Pacini was permitted to re- roll & first ball after a pin had fallen onto the alley as he shot for a count on a spare.
