Retains Davis Cup
In .Hard Battle
FOREST HILLS,, N. Y.f (JP) —
Once more, the Davis Cup belong
ed to the United States yesterday,
saved by California’s tennis bud
dies, stubble-haired Jack Kramer
and shoeless Ted Schroeder, in a
4-1 triumph over the challengers
from Australia.
It may be a long, long, time be
fore the tennis world sees another
singles battle like the one Monday
in which Schroeder outlasted Din
ny Pails to apply the clincher to
the five-match series.
For 71 games the two players
fought, with Schroeder discarding
his shoes half the time and Pails
missing several chances at victory,
before the American finally won
out, 6-3, 8-6, 4-6. 9-11, 10-8.
It was the longest singles match
ever played in a Davis Cup chal
lenge round.
