United States promoter Jack Kramer announced that the 22-year-old Wimbledon and U. S. and Australian na tional champion has agreed to a three-year contract which should earn him about $140,- 000. Cooper, considered the smoothest layer ever de veloped in Australia, is sched uled to make his pro debut Tuesday night against Ecua dor's Pancho Segura in the Jack Crawfard Testimonial tournament. Cooper's move, shortly after Davis Cup teammate Mai An derson also turned pro, breath new life into Kramer's 1959 professional plans but was a tremendous . blow to Aus tralia's chances of regaining the Davis Cup fromhe United States this year - and perhaps for several years. With Cooper and Anderson out of the picture, the United States' controversial Peruvian star, Alex Olmedo, stands practically unchallenged as the world's No. 1 amateur.
