A CHINESE EXPONENT (Eke. Tel. Copyright-United Press Assn.) (Australian and N.Z. Press Association.) NEW YORK, May 23. The New York Times' correspondent at Kansas City says the principal player in the Chinese Davis Cup team is Linn, who spent nearly all his life in Australia, and had the opportunity to develop his game against some of the best players in tennis. None wa.s more responsible for the high standard that bum has attained than Patterson. Lum has Patterson's' form and ! manner of stroke production. He delivers his service with the same-body motion and his forehand and backhand are like Patterson's, although Lum has better control over, the latter shot, including the backhand slice. The conviction is that ho is l going (o make it interesting for his opponents here, who are likely to be TUden and Hennessey.
