Jean Borotra Wins The Davis Cup
Sensational Victories Over Allison And Vines
FULL DETAILS OF EPIC MATCH
SECOND THRILLING SINGLES MATCH OF “BOUNDING” BASQUE.”
London, August 28..
The most amazing challenge round in the history of the Davis Cup Competition.
That truthfully portrays the three-day battle at Auteuil between Francë (holders) and the United States.
Recall the setting of this dramatic fight, Jean Borotra having definitely retired from Davis Cup singles matches was persuaded to rejoin the French team to fill the place reserved for Rene La- coste. Remember that Ellsworth Vines went to Paris from Wimble- don with the glamorous reputation of being the greatest player of history.
