(UPD "TJnited ' States tennis ' fortunes slipped to the lowest ebb in his tory today as both the men's and women's national tennis titles joined the Davis Cup in foreign hands for the first time in court annals. The catastrophe reached its cli max at Forest Hills Sunday a site once ruled by the Tildens, the Budges, the Kramers and the Wills, Jacobs, Betz and Connollys v- . Australia, recent winner of the Davis Cup, sent its fourth conse cutive son to victory in the men's singles as left-handed Neale Fra- ser swept to a 6-3, 5-7, 6-2, 6-4 victory over Alex Olmedo, the lend-lease star from Peru. And the women's crown was taken by Maria Bueno, a 19-year-old school teacher from Sao Paulo Brazil, whose 6-1, 6-4 win over Christine Truman of Great Brit ain made her the first foreign winner of the women's cham- ninnchin Im OO vaar 1 ' But the real ignominy was tlial for the first time in history both finals were contested without one ' of Uncle Sam's nephews or nieces sprinting around the premises.";' Fraser, seeded second in the tournament, r u i n e a uimeao s dreams of sold and glory as be whipped the brown panther from' Peru decisively.

When it was all over, and he had been swept off the court by Fraser's blinding service and his own volley errors, Olmedo's pro prospects weren't worth a plugged peso. Prospects Not Rosy Nor were the prospects regard ed as rosy for the United States in the immediate future. Because neither the new Australian won der boy nor the saucy Brazilian miss could be regarded as "cheese champions" and both apparently will be around for some time. The pros weren't, apparently, intending to lure Fraser into their ranks on the grounds that he Is too fresh an arrival. Yet there was no doubt but what he "found" himself completely in 'the Davis Cup challenge round, where he downed both Olmedo and big Bar ry MacKay. For in the finals of the Nationals he was a court killer whose big serve, solid foundation in all strokes and gameness came through unquestionably. ' " So who is to beat him? MacKay, according to those who know, refuses to heed advice that he should take two or three months and get himself a solid first service, a confusing second service and a new forehand. The next 12 months, the experts con tend, will tell the story for 19-year-old Butch Buchholz of St. Louis, so the main hope seems to be 18-year-old Charles McKinley of St. Ann, Mo.,' who is regarded by pro interests as a "really wonderful prospect."

REG. $21.21 67015 TUBELESS , 3 Minute Miie Possible, Contends NEW YORK (UPD-Even the three-minute mile is possible, a yoga and hypnosis expert named Ivan Tors contended today, if we will stop building ourselves uito a race .of muscle-bound beef-trust-ers. This is akin to predicting the eight second 100-yurJ dash, a nine-foot high jump or the 18-foot pole vault. And if such conten tions sound startling, they are. But, Tors argues with quiet vehemence, "it simply conies down to a matter of mental atti tude and proper physical condi tioning." You might feel, at first, that this is merely a bid for publicity considering the fact that Tors is a' television producer and has a new show called "The Man and The Challenge" making its debut Saturday night. But the very for mat of the show lends a certain amount of credence to his claims.

(UPD Walker .Cuppers Deane Berman, Billy Joe Patton and Dr. Frank Taylor today join the quest of the National Amateur golf championship which Charlie Coe shows no sign of readiness to re linquish. ' If any of his 199 rivals in this year's tournament had any ideas about .beating Coe but of his third1! amateur crown, he dispelled that with a masterful opening-round 7 and 6 victory over young Bob Meiering of Roswell,. N.M., Mon day. The 35-year-old Oklahoma oil broker and captain of the U S Walker Cup team did not three putt a single green and did not stray over par until he had piled ud a commanding lead by win- niog seven of the first eight holes from 21-year-old Metering, i "I .ployed better than I expect ed," - Commented "Coe, who was pitted against James Mallory of Spokane, Wash., in today s second round.-A'The first match is always the hardest for me." Barman, the 21-year-old British Amateur champion, Patton and Taylor, all of whom drew first round byes, get their chance to day to fry their luck on the mile high Broadmoor Club layout with its difficult-to-read hilly greens and rarified Rocky Mountain at mosphere. Berman met Dee Replogle of Oklahoma City in today's second round," the colorful Patton played Ken Flnke of Tucson, Ariz., and Taylor was paired against Thom as Jamison Jr., of Oakmont, Pa. Coe has flayed . "50 or 60 rounds" at Broadmoor during the past 10 years. Many of his rivals, particularly Harvie Ward of San Francisco, played the course for the first time Monday and showed it. Ward, the 33-year-old Carolinian who like Coe is shooting for his third National Amateur crown, battled for 17 holes with 20-year- old Jim Grant of Atlanta before winning 2 and 1.

And, he noted, none of these "suermen" has been of .the bujg ing bieep brigade. It is Tors' contention that po tential athletes should fit their bodies to a sport and not the sport to their bodies. "A little man can't ever expect to be a professional football full back," he explained. "But have you ever noticed that the finest high divers and the best ski jumpers are little men? There, is a sport to fit everybody, but as well as physical ability a compe titor must have the proper men tal approach as well as motiya- Next time you buy, give Black Label try.. .
