AUSTRALIA AND

DAVIS CUP

WHAT MANAGER HOPES

AIMS TO IMPROVE. THE PLAYERS

Mr. Y. S. Youdale, manager of the Australian Davis Cup team recently gave a very in teresting interview, in the course of which he discussed Australia's Davis Cup pro- spects. He said:

saw Crawford play in many matches in Australia since. his re- turn from abroad and I am satis- fied that his mind was not peaceful enough for the big contests. It is my opinion that when he is abroad and when all troubles and worries are left behind he will reach that top form which won him the Wim- bledon title.

"As to Don Turnbull, there is no greater trier in tennis, but he needs

of u gun.

In two overs Dan sent Peebles five times to the boundary, and so it went on-crack, ernek, crack- until the, umpires called enough. When play closed the crowd was so eager to congratulate Bradman' that police officers had to escort the laughing champion, to the] pavilion.

In an unfinished partnership of 126 Darling remained more or less of a spectator, though making a number of pretty strokes. When 13 he offered a chance to Price, but a very dimeult one wide on the

New York, June 19. Two games: In the American league were prevented by rain to-day, but a full programme was played in the National

"I am well satisfied with Adrian Quist. There seems to be only one thing for this led to do, and that is to increase his pace, for he is a grand little Oghter and gets the ball back with monotonous re. xularity. With the best advice Quist undoubtedly will be a power in the team. He has the faculty to learn quickly, and so we should not fear for the future of this young Vivian McGrath still has a lot to learn. He in going ahead by leaps and bounds, but some of his shots still need to be improved. We know that McGrath has great tennly in him and it only needs the! final polish which he will no doubt receive this year.

BEST TEAM AVAILABLE.

"Summing it all up I think that we have the best team available. The experience of 1933 will be in- valuable to the lads. When I said last year that I would take a youth 'ful team away it was with the Australia's object of enhancing future tennis, and I think that the performance of the lads this year will prove that the judgment of the Australian L.T.A. was sound.

"One of my objects when the team is idle between tournaments or Davis Cup matches will to be see that they practise against better men than themselves. It in not of much avail for McGrath to play Crawford or Quist. They do not take it seriously enough Therefore I will endeavour to ar range for them to play better "men than themselves. 1 remember in Paris last year Quist met Frank Shields, who is the number one ranked player in America, În n practice contest and trounced him

It did If we Quist the world of good. can arrange similar, contests for for the various members of the team they should profit enormously.

"If the Japanese rely upon Nishimura, Fujikura and Yama- gishi, then we should have a chance. second to none, as playing in an Initial Davis Cup contest is a tre- mendous strain on the nerves. 1 belleve we will win the European zone as I have been through the draw and given it many hours of consideration. Italy' should win the top half and it should be # battle between France, Germany and Australia in the lower half, Our motto is "The Davis Cup for Australia. We will fight every Inch of the way. We will not sueri. ce our chances by doing anything we should not. Australia can pin its faith to this team, which has only one object-The Davis Cup,”-
