DAVIS CUP PROSPECTS
Australian Victory is Predicted in First Round
ENGLISH WRITERS’ COMMENTS ANDREWS NEEDS PRACTICE (Unii«d Press Association—By Electric Telegraph Copyright). Received 2.15 p.m. to-day. LONDON, May 7. Wallis Myers, writing in the “Daily Telegraph,” says that while an Australian victory in the first round of the Davis Cup can be confidently predicted, on relative form, Stedman. would not be easily beaten by Australia’s second singles player, while Australia would need its best effort to win the doubles. Hopman, the “Sun-Herald’s” correspondent, writing from Eastbourne, says Andrews is the only New Zealander here. I practised singles with him and found his forehand good, but his backhand weak. He needs much practice in order to hold our best. Malfrov and Stedman arrive to night.
