tentatively decided that the 1898

singles and Borotra and jacques
Brugnon in doubles.
Experts recalled that this was
the layout in 1882 until the very
day Of the draw for partners,
when Boroua was suddenly sub
stituted for Houssus. And they
wisely remarked that the forces
brought to bear upon the popular
Basque then would undoubtedly
be invoked again this year.

JEAN BOROTRA EXPECTED
TO PLAY CUP SINGLES

PARIS, May Z9.-(UP).-Peo-
pie who should know are saying
that Jean Borotra will again rep
resent France in the singles of
the Davis cup this year.
The Bounding Basque, who has
made as many farewell appear
ances as Adelina Patti, announc-
ed his annual retirement from
serious tennis just a few weeks
ago.
He said that he might be able
to represent France in doubles,
but he was getting too old to
stand the strain Of singles compe-
tition.
The willy Basque made 4 similar
announcement in the spring Of
1892. Yet when it came time to
defend the cup, he hobbled onto
the Auteuil courts and won two
single victories, including one
over the peerless Ellsworth Vines.
Nevertheless, French tennis Of
