the fireman's helmet hair. and Will
mer Allison. the turkey necked
Texan.
Bulge is okay; he's the best play
er in the country. il not in the
world, right now But Allison has
no business on the team. His oNn
captain Walter Pate, told ne only
last night that Wilmer was not on
his game, but was named in the
hope that he would find it under
the hot fires OF competition.
Maybe he will. He's a tremen-
dous fighter and the responsibility
of upholding the stars and stripes
may fuse his scattered game into
4 flaming unit. But that's no rea-
son for naming him over Grant.
Grant and Allison have played
twice this year. First in a tourna-
ment at Houston and next in a
two-set practice match here At
Germantown.
Grant won the Houston engage
ment. and split the battle here TAX
ing the first set 6-l, and losing the
second lib.
This column is not meant as an
attack on Allison. He's a hell Of
a tennis player, as his victory over
Fred Perry in the finals at Forest
Hills last year would prove. I be-
lieve he will do all right against
Australia. But even if he wins it
won't prove that Grant shouldn't
have played. Grant earned a right
TO win, too. if you get what l
mean He's licked enough of the
Big Ten boys in the past five
years to deserve a place on the
Davis cup team. Oh! Sure, he's
played against Mexico but he rates
a chance 10 play when the chips
are down. and the stands are full.
As l said, Grant took IS nicely.
I asked him about it and he said.

one so young:
