HOLLYWOOD, Calif., May 37.
(AP) Decathlon Champion Olenn
Morris, barred from further ama
teur athletics because he algned a
movie contract to play "Tartan," Is
still confused.
The former Colorado farm boy,
Vho waa proclaimed the outstand
ing athlete of the world after the
1030 Olympic games, looked over
a pile of mall today and knitted
his brow.
The letters were written after
formal notice was given by the
A. A. V. last wsak that Morrla was
no longer en amateur. The gist
of them waa that Morrla should
not hava been penalised for tak
ing up a career for which he was
physlcslly suited such aa the "Tar
ran" work, any more than for ex
ploiting his athletic fame aa a
shoe aalesman.

AGAINST AUSSIES
NEW YORK, Msy 37. (T) Aus
tralia's seasoned and hitherto favor
ed tennla forces look to be no bet
ter than an even choice against ths
United States in the Davis cup
matches starting this Saturday, nt
Forest Hills.
The Auasies rely largely upon
greater International experience in
their drive to repeat laat year'a 3-3
victory, but the sensational singles
form of Callfornls'a Don Budge, cou
pled with the slow recovery of Adrian
Qutst, Anzac ace, from a mild at
tack of Intestinal "flu," has altered
the outlook.
The Americans may go to the post
aa favorltce if Qulst falls to shake
off the ailment.
The Australians had decided a week
ngo to assign the entire task to Qulst
and the veteran Jack Crawford, for
mer world champion. Crawford gain
ed the No. 2 alngles berth after Vivian
McOrath caught a bad cold In Mexico
and lost considerable weight. Mc
Orath still la bothered by blistered
hands but he looked good yesterday
In a doublea workout with Crawford,
and may share this assfgnment In the
cup test.
