AUSTRALIAN TENNIS STARS
ERST DOUBLE SOUGHT. EXPLANATION BY CRAWFORD. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph Copyright.) BROOKLINE, Aug. 24. The Australian tennis star Jack Crawford stopped studying American methods long enough to-day to explain his mission to this country. “You know it is vital for our future. Davis Cup hopes to develop a good doubles team,” Crawford said. “This season four of us competed in Davis Cup, British and French championship matches without finding our strongest combination, but we expect to have our problem solved for us at Longwood. It may be McGrath and myself, Turnbull and myself or Turnbull and Quist.” “You must not forget that we have no such galaxy of doubles teams in Australia as you have here; accordingly we arc handicapped when wc make up our Davis Cup selections.”
