That England would certainly challenge the Aus
tralasians for the cup next season was discussed
during the deciding of the national championship
tournament at Newport last month. Those who
were in touch with the facts looked for the chal-
lenge, but secuted the suggestion that the Do
hertys would constitute the British team As to

executive committeeman remarked that as lawn
tennis stood here at the present time the Amer

national honors again. He declared that he was
against any thought of challenge for next wear
and that so far as he was conversant with the in
tention of the others of the committee and among
lawn tennis players generally they We're AGAINST
any challenge next year. believing that the journey
to Australia was much too long for an American
