U.S. Davis Cup Team Entertained In Fiji

EN ROUTE to the US from Australia after having won the Davis Cup, three members of the American team, together with their manager, were entertained at Lautoka, Fiji, by local tennis enthusiasts. They were accorded native ceremonies of welcome and were the guests of honour at a cocktail party. During the afternoon, Kramer and Schroeder thrilled large crowds with an exhibition match and were then joined by two local players in doubles.
