London, Sept. 18.
The Australian Lawn Temnis Association has rejected a suggestion by Adrian K. Quist, the Davis Cup player, that he, John Bromwich and Sir Norman Brookes, president of the ALTO. and former Wimbledon champion, should tour the United States in aid of war charity funds.
Quist pointed out that he had been rejected for military duties and Bromwich had completed his service.
The Association met in Melbourne, and after one delegate had called the proposal imprudent and ill-advised the Association decided they could not entertain it.
Sir Norman Brookes, interviewed after the meeting, said that because of the war America had not chal-longed for the Davis Cup, held by Australia, and this fact made a visit by an Australian team to the United States impossible.
