| Description: | America Wins Davis Cup. In one of the greatest upsets in tennis history, the United States regains the coveted Davis Cup from Australia thanks to the brilliant play of a Peruvian Inca Indian, Alex Olmedo. Huge crowd; funny - one spectator has piece of paper tucked under his sunglasses to shield his nose from the sun (sunscreen of sorts). Men's doubles match. Caucasian spectators, many in hats, including young boys who cheer excitedly. Then a men's singles match. Big trophy cup is presented to a team, men wearing blazers and shorts. | |
