TRIUMPH OF AGILE

FUJIKURA

TURNBULL'S PROMISING FORM

(By A. WALLIS MYERS)

London, June 11.

ALTHOUGH the Davis Cup tie between Australia and Japan

had been settled the previous day, youth and ardour were in full cry at Eastbourne on Saturday, and the stands were crowd- ed to watch two' exhilarating matches.

In the first between the junior members of each team J. Fujikura gained a well-merited victory over V. B. McGrath (4-6, 7-5, 6-2, 6-4), and in the second D. P. Turnbull, who took the place of J. H. Crawford, beat J. Yamagishi, Japan's first string, in three sets (6———4, 7—5, 9————7),

Thus the honours on the third day were divided, Fujikura's triumph over a player who had defeated J. Satoh in the Davis Cup last year, and who in his own country last season had a better record than Crawford, had about it no element of luck.

It reveiled the winner as a gifted exponent of the game, armed at all points, with fluent footwork, an alert brain and a cool hand under attack.
