DAVIS CUP
AUSTRALIA V. NEW ZEALAND United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, May 7. Mr Wallis Myers, the well-known lawn tennis critic, writing in the “Daily Telegraph,” says: “While an Australian victory in the first round of the Davis Cup can be confidently predicted, on relative form A. C. Stedman (N.Z.) will not be easily beaten by Australia's second singles player, while the Australians will need to make their best efforts to win the doubles. H. Hopman, the “Sun-Herald” correspondent, writing from Eastbourne, says: “E. D. 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. C. E. Malfroy and A. C. Stedman will arrive to-night."
