The other two countries which will compete in the American zone are Cuba and Mexico, the former meeting Australia in the first round and the latter meeting the United States, and, unless a decided upset happens, the team from "Down Under" and the representatives of Uncle Sam should come through and thus 'make good the present plans for the zone final' which is expected to bd played on Memorial Day week and next May.
