Scoreboard

P: With a spinning left-handed serve that hopped like a hornet, husky Neale Fraser calmly took apart Ohio's towering (6 ft. 3 1/2 in., 185 Ibs.) Barry MacKay, 24, at Forest Hills, by the score of 8-6, 3-6, 6-2, 6-4, to win the Davis Cup for Australia in the fifth and deciding match. The goat was moody Peruvian Alex Olmedo, 23, hero of last year's U.S. victory and rated the world's best amateur. On opening day, Olmedo was routed by Eraser's serve, later helped kick away the doubles. P: The bay trotter tossed a shoe at the three-quarter pole, but, as smooth and sure as ever, three-year-old Diller Hanover of the Watertown (N.Y.) Hall Stables crossed the finish line in front at the fairgrounds in Du Quoin, 111., to complete a two-heat sweep in the $125,284 Hambletonian, richest harness race in U.S. history. P: His green eyes glazed with exhaustion, Brazilian Paratrooper Wenceslau Malta, 27, a slight (5 ft. 6 in.. 143 Ibs.) bachelor ("Married? What for?"), staggered home third in the 4,000-meter cross-country run to win the demanding pentathlon*at the Pan-American Games in Chicago, briefly check the flow of gold medals to the U.S., which won 74 of the first 103 events.

*Other four events: 3,5OO-meter cross-country horseback ride, epee fencing, pistol shooting, 3OO-meter swim.
