DAVIS GUP NEW ZEALAND TO CHALLENGE. £Szb United Peess Association.] WELLINGTON, February 3. The New Zealand Lawn Tennis Association has decided to enter a challenge in the European zone for the Davis Cup this year. SOME FORECASTS. PARIS, February 2. (Received February 3, at 2 p.m.) The French Davis' Cup team will probably be Cochet and Lacoste for the singles and Borotra and Brugnon for the doubles. India and New Zealand at the last minute entered, the latter for the first time. The United States is expected to win comfortably in the American zone. A keen struggle between Australia, Britain, Denmark, and South Africa is forecasted in the European zone. D.J.G. RAGES Assurance was scratched at 8.50 this morning for all engagements at the Dunedin Jockey Club races next week. BOWLING ‘ Star ’ v, ‘ Times,’ Dunedin Green, to-morrow, 6.ls:—Walker, Glen, Moody, Rawlinson; C. S. Smith, Andrew, Cole, Lambeth. FRENCH TENNIS PLAYERS Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright PARIS, February 2. (Received February 3, at 1.30 p.m.) The Lawn Tennis Federation has cabled the team in Australia to return at the earliest possible opportunity, in view of the suggested possibility of their developing staleness. Critics, referring to Borotra’s and Brugnon’s tour, point out that, apart from when aboard ship, neither has had a week’s rest from tennis since France won the Davis Cup. If they become stale a heavy burden would fall on Lncoste and Cochet. The former, owing to business calls, is having to reduce time devoted to championship tennis. Cochet is taking things easily during the winter. AMATEUR ATHLETICS CYCLING CLUB AFFILIATED. Advice has been received by the Otago Centre of the New Zealand Amateur Athletic Association that the council of that body has granted the affiliation of the Otago Amateur Cycling Club.
