Frances. England will probably rely
on Parke and kingscote in the singles
two players who cannot be despised
in any company. We suggest, too,
that South. Africa's chance cannot b.
ruled out. Their young and advanc-
ing team is one of real merit"
English tennis writers have offered
a suggestion to avoid a recurrence o.
the recent mix-up in the Davis cur
draw because of late entries. It i:
that every country with a competing
tendency be entered automatically or
January / of each year and that un-
less the entry Is conceled before
March l the names be drawn. If
country decides afterWard not to play,
it can be defaulted without disarrang-
ing the draw and upsetting the ar
rangements.
