London, July 19

The United States to-day took the lead against Germany in the inter-zone final of the Davis Cup when Donald Budge and Gene Mako beat Baron von Cramm and Henner Henkel in the double:

The Americans won by 4-6, 7- 8-6, 6-4.

America will have to win one of the two remaining singles to enter the Challenge Round, as she is now ahead by two matches to one. In the opening singles on Saturday von Cramm beat Bitsy Grant by 6-3, 6-4, 6-2, while Budge defeated Henkel by 6-2, 6-1, 6-3.—Reuter.
