“It seems to me that a good education will be of benefit to you throughout your life in whatever business or profession you may enter, and that to sacrifice' this in the hope of making the Davis Cup team next year you would be ill-advised. You will have ample time to improve your game during afternoons after school hours, and during the Easter and long summer vacations.”
