Fulham's Centre-Half Home In A Haze After
Dream Tour
By ARCHIE QUICK
Man in a haze is Fulham's centre-half, young Jim Taylor. He has just returned from a footballer's dream. tour, and he is not yet quite sure where he has been and what he has seen. Taylor went on the Football Associn- tion tour of Canada and the United States and was called down to Rio for the World Cup series.
Thus he travelled from Liverpool to Montreal, across Canada and back to Vancouver, played in New York, hud air passage via Miami, Cuba, Havana, Trinidad and Pernambuco to Rio. and then home via Dakar und Lisbon. That took nearly two months. He played eight matches in North America but was not called upon to play in Brazil, although he will receive the full bonna.

Canadians Believe
UNITED STATES WILL HAVE A TOUGH TIME HANGING ON TO THE DAVIS CUP
Montreal, July 17.
Judging from what Canadians saw of the Australian Davis Cup team the United States is going to have a tough time hanging onto the most coveted piece of silverware in international tennis.
The Canadians were simply no match for the young courtwise Aussies who won every set in their 5-0 sweep of the American zone semi-finals. And the losers were convinced that only the United States could produce a match for the stars from "Down Under" and even the Yanks have an excellent chance of going down to defeat for the first time in five renewals.
The Aussies presented two tall and talented youngsters--23-year-old Frank Sedgman, Champion of Australla, and 21-year-old newcomer Ken McGregor - who handled the singles chores. Sedgman teamed with veteran Jack Bromwich in the doubles, a masterful blending of youthful power and the experience of years, Sedgman, of course, was rated much stronger than known to be one of the world's (yeur's Sidwell and Bromwich. best players he was finalist It was the intter dup that beat BASEBALL In the recent Wimbledon Dilly Talbert 2014 Gardiner tournament.

World Athletic Records
Still Keep
Falling
The annual assault on world track and fleld records got off to an early start
this year in the United States.
Jim Fuchs of Yale University opened the attack by putting the weight 58 ft. 6% ins., about an inch beyond his record mark of last summer. This was followed up by Dlek Attlesey (Univ. of South California) who sped over the 120 yds high hurdles in the unbelievable time of 13.5 secs, just 1 see. better than Har- rison Dillard's world record.
