Shields Figures U. 5.
Can Muster Team 10
Beat Aussies in 81
BY the Asseeiuted Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-Frank
Shields believes the United States
can muster a tennis team that
might beat the Australians In the
Davis Cup this year even with
Frank Sedgman again leading the
forces from down under. rs
The captain of the, United
States team had nothing but the
highest praise for Sedgman's play
in the challenge round. But he
told a press conference yesterday
he believes the intent Of the anna
teur rules was being broken In
the raising Of a fund to be pre-
scented to Sedgeman and his
fiancee as q wedding present.
Shields Defends Selections.
Shields also defended his selec-
tion Of Ted Schroeder over Dick
Savitt. the Australian and VIM
bledon champion. to team with
Vic Seixas in the challenge round.
He named Seixas, Herbie FIam,
Dick Savitt and Ham Richardson
as a possible nucleus for the 80
team which he believes "has al
chance to beat Australia"
Shields probably would have
gone farther out on the limb if
he was sure Tony Trabert, the
20-year -old sailor from Cincinatti
would be available again.
"Trabert is a great prospect,
he said. He has everything under
the SUM-"
But the chances appear slim
that Tony can get in enough ten
mis- as well as permission from the
Navy to take another crack at|
international competition this
year.
Says Seixas Has Improved.
"Seixas has improved tremen-
dously," Shields said. "He def
nitely has improved his second
serve which used to be too short.
Flam has o great potential. HeI
did well against Sedgman before,
beating him in one five-setter and
losing to him in another. II his
service was a little better he could
beat Sedgman regularly"
. Shields said he had urged the
Californian several times to play
with his team last year.
"Flam refused" Shields said
"He said he had to take post
graduate work at college"
And then the discussion shifted
to the Australian newspapers
drive for the wedding present fund.
Il guess I came along 20 years
too late" Shields said with a
laugh.
Tt may be legal but it is taking
advantage of a loophole in rules, -
he said.
