SYDNEY, Dec. 28
The “Sun” reports that J. H. Crawford declares in an interview that he is very tired of tennis. He has lost his keenness and. unless he displays improved form in the forthcoming Australian championships, will not participate in the next Davis Cup. He suggests that Bromwich should be given his chance, along with McGrath and Quist. It was later revealed that Crawford is suffering from heart strain. He said that he had been warned on several occasions by medical men that he could not maintain the pace and stay healthy. According to views expressed by the Davis Cup selectors, it is unlikely that an Australian team will be sent overseas next year if Crawford drops out.
