FOREST HILLS, N. Y. I
Australia" Lewis Hoad and Rex
Hartwlg. playing pirate-bold ten
nis, won dramatic doubles duel
from America's best Saturday to
send the Davis Cup on another
Ion? trip to the bottom ol tne
world.
The hard-hitting- Aussles. after
dropping a marathon 26-game
! opening set, rallied brilliantly to
innash Tony Trabert and Vic
Belxas 12-14, M, 6-3, 3-6. 7-5. This
''elinched the cup lor Australia with
ten insurmountable 3-0 lead.
' - The triumph, reversing last
year's surprising score which won
the cup (or the United Slates In
the first two days, rendered Sun-
, day's llnal singles matches mere
formalities to be played only for
fun. They cannot changd the re
sult.
With the Issue decided, Captain
Bill Talbert ol the U. 8. team
' asked and was granted permission
. to replace Trabert with Hamilton
Richardson, young Rhodes scholar
from Baton Rouge, La.
Talbert said Trabert had been
bothered by blisters on Bis racquet
. hand, an old aliment lor nun.
Richardson has been a team mem-
' her three years but has never
. nlnved In a challenge round.
Hary Hopman, Australia's cap-
. tain. Blood pat with his winning
lineup. This means that Hoad, who
whipped Trabert In Friday's sin-
es. will D ay oewas. nicwu,
himif over Seixas Saturday, will
meet Richardson. The matches
l.rt at 10 a. m. (PSTl.
A crowd of about 13,000 In the
West Side Tennis Club's concrete
horseshoe thrilled to the quick
changing fortunes of the fiercely
' fought contest, "
Both 8elxas and Trabert, grim
Jawed and full of ilght, played
better then In their singles asslgn
. menu Friday. Hartwlg, a 34-year-old
farm boy from the suburbs of
Melbourne; was the strong man of
tha Australian combination, return
. big sarvlcs brilliantly and making
' lew errors.
Hoad, although his bomb-like
- service often waa unplayable, fell
Into errors which frequently burt
his side's cause. His volleying par
ticularly was erratic and be netted
frequently.
It waa Hartwlg who played the
major role In breaking Seixas'
service In the 13th game of the
final set and then hitting the shot
which decided the day a back
hand passing shot which kicked up
the dust as vlo reacnea iranucanj
In an ittemot to return it.
It waa a oulck ending and the
crowd stood for minutes, applaud
ing the players as they shook hands
in the middle or uie court.
HoDman called It, "one of the
finest doubles mstches I have ever
seen" and Jack Kramer, former
world champion, said. "This was
one of the greatest doubles match
es in Davis Cup history."
Tslbert praised the Australian
victory and aald, "Our team was
fit and played the best it could.
We were beaten by better players.
We have no excuses."

SAN FRANCISCO (UP) A new
star glistened over the fight world
today in the person of Joey Glnm

Bobo Olson's middleweight title al
though he lost an unipulnr 10

Olson scored a unanimous deci
sion over Giunibra Friday night
in a nationally televised bout at

was loudly booed and King Bobo

NEW YORK fl .Thursday,

Not officially, of course. But
Thursday is the day when college

Maryland and Duke rank one.

Conference discussions; West Vir

Southern Conference foes,, and

every indication that most of the
