THE DAVIS CUP. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. New York, March 21. The New York Times, in a sports editorial, states that Australasia again looms up as a leading contender as the result of the Davis Cup draw.

Australasia, In order to proceed to the final round will merely have to defeat the winner of the Argentine-Denmark match. Brookes and PatWrson will doubtless easily accomplish that.
