FOREST HILLS, !N.Y. MP)-Pro
rookie Cliff Drysdale of South
Africa broke Rod Laver's serving
rhythm with a murderous two-
fisted backhand yesterday and up-
set the top-seeded favorite to
make an open scramble of the
$100,000 U.S. Open Tennis Cham-
pionships.
His confidence and his awesome
left-handed power dulled to powd-
er-puff potency, the world's No.

dale's relentless back court bar-

fourth-round match.4

IM softball
tourney begins
With today's opening round of
the All-Campus Softball Tourna-
ment,the Intramural Department
launches its outdoor fall program.
Fraternities, faculty members,
grads, independents, and residen-
tial halls will be battling each for
the All-Campus crown and ac-
companying trophy.
In all, 34 teams are entered in
this fastball affair, the first such
tournament offered by the IM de-
partment in the fall semester.
Since the changeover to trimest-
ers, softball hasgceased. to become
a spring IM sport, school ending
before the advent of good Weath-
er.'
The teams are guaranteed two
games; those losing their first will
play in a consolation round.
Games are scheduled for Ferry
Field in the late afternoons
throughout the next two weeks,
leading up to the semi-finals on
Saturday, September 14.
Two final games will determine
the top four places.
The schedule for today's first
round:

the opening game, which let loose
the landslide.
"I just never got hold of the
ball," the redhaired Aussie, win-
ner of every major crown, said
afterward. "I couldn't get my first
serve in court. Drysdale slaught-
ered my second one."
"I had never played Laver,"
Drysdale said. "But I got used toI
playing left-handers with Tony
Roche and Nikki Pilic. My stra-
tegy was to lay back and try to
beat Laver from the backcourt.
The strategy worked."
HANDSOME EIGHTa
Drysdale, 29, runner-up to]
Spain's Manuel Santana here in
1965, is a member of Lamar Hunt's
so-called "Handsome Eight" tour-
ing troupe. Laver is the star of]
George MacCall's rival National]
Tennis League, composed of older,{
players.
The tall, blond South African
was joined in the men's quarter-
finals by Australian John New-;
combe, another of the "Handsome
Eight" group and the two top U.S.
Davis Cup aces, Arthur Ashe of
Highland Falls, N.Y., and Clark
Graebner of New York, both;
amateurs. -
Ashe,the new U.S. amateur-
champion and the first Negro man
ever to win a major crown,
buoyed U.S. cup hopes by polish-
ing off Australia's rugged Roy
Emerson 6-4, 9-7, 6-3. Emersonn
now a pro, has been a bane of
U.S. amateurs for years.
Graebner, Ashe's hard-serving,{
bespectacled teammate, polished
off Gene Scott, an attorney from
Yale, 7-5, 6-0, 6-3. He had his big
service smoking:
LATE RALLY and
Newcombe, 1967 U.S. a n d
Wimbledon champion, had to rally
from two sets down and pull off
some of the most fantastic shots
of his career for a marathon vic-
tory over Torben Ulrich, the
bearded Dane, 5-7, 4-6, 6-4, 10-8,
6-4.
Ulrich led 7-6 in the fourth set
after Newcombe doublefaulted at
game point but Newcombe pulled
an immediate rebreak with two
lobs that the Dane couldn't touch.
Then in the 10th game of the
final set, Ulrich went sprawling
after another Newcombe lob and
killing volleys by the young Aus-
tralian, seeded fourth, pulled out
the match.
Another seeded player, Dennis
Ralston of Bakesfield, Calif., No.
6, was five points from defeat be-

Priority Four:
ThatIiagic Number
4
There are few things left at Michigan that take four years to
acquire.
With the introduction of advance credits and the trimester sys-
tem, students can and do graduate in 22 and three years.
New officers of UAC are appointed in their third year along with
Daily editors. Even first year students run for SGC positions.
And to add insult to injury, second year athletes star in varsity
sports and sometimes make All-American.
Only a priority four football coupon appears to remain as
a sign of longevity at Michigan.
Still, priority four is not enough by itself. It is the waiting up
the night before to be first in line for senior tickets that separates
apathetic sports fans from the true blue strugglers who have suffered
through the last three years with the Michigan football team.
It takes a certain breed to wait up for priority four tickets. These
are the hard-to-discourage sports fans who, though they sometimes
disagree with Bump Elliott, invision the possibility that, maybe this
year, Michigan will be the best football team in the Big Ten.
True, there are some four year students who only want 50 yard
seats for social status, but the majority wait because they believe in
the Wolverine football team.
Why else would they plant themselves before the Intramural
building doors the afternoon before those doors open for ticket
sales.
And it is that watiting-in-line that can be one of the most
interesting experiences in a student's college career.
Your roommate from freshman year, who you have diligently
tried to avoid for two years; may spend the night waiting for tickets
with you. Other former quaddie Friends will appear among the con-
glomerate of people who line Ea'st Hoover street by 2 a.m.
The steps leading to the IM building entrance are covered with
sleeping bodies huddled together in sleeping bags or wrapped up in
blankets.
The sweet smell of alcohol is everywhere. Still, there is some order.
A pro, a student who has been at Michigan more than four
years and has waited in line before, prepares a list of participants,
dating back to the previous afternoon when the first students
adorred the IM Building steps.........
'In a futile effort to prevent the chaos that follows, the pro reads
the list every tvo hours 'to make sure that people have not left to get
a night's rest before the big push in the morning.
The list is read at 2 a.m., but by four, everyone is too tired to pay
attention to it. Instead, people settle back to sleep or talk, resigned
to the wait until 8 a.m.
Around four, while most of the entries are sleeping, the alcohol
begins to take its toll. A heckler, voicing his dissent of the pro's list,
emerges from the crowd.
Yelling, "I'm number one," in reference to his position on the
list, the heckler destroys the sedate manner of the crowd, which had
submitted to the list.
The pro's attempt at keeping entries orderly- is quickly replaced
by a restlessness to be "first.
The heckler continues his tirade as the crowd moves closer to
the door. Screaming, "I'm the zoology club and I'm number one," the
heckler whets the participants' appetites to storm the front door. 4
"To the hell with the list, get to the door," becomes the battle
cry.

THE DASCOLA BARBI
Near Michigan Theatre
291/ At 6 a.m., any remaining hope of order is'broken. One of the pro's
henchman ascends to the top step and bellows, "Let's line up from
the door to the railroad tracks four abreast according to the list."
With that, the crowd, brought to a frenzy by the heckler, storms
the doors.
There are still two hours until the doors open.
t.The students, in order to retain their positions, sit down on
the steps, refusing to give up their hard won spot to anyone or
anything.
Shoving ensued but order is maintained. No fights break out
as the four-yearl men struggled to keep cement captured during the
night.
As it nears eight, the participants, back on their feet, begin, to
press forward towards the door.
Then at 8:05 a.m., it happens. The door, the object of so much
r concern during' the night, opens and the big crush is on.
ATE They run, they crawl, but all make it to the main. gymnasium
- where the tickets, worth more than gold, are waiting obediently for
them.

Banking at National Bank is a pleasure for students. We go out of our way to assist our stu-
dent customers with their special banking needs. Some banks think of students as just the
numbers of their checking accounts, but at National Bank, we don't forget we work with
people. Check which services you need:
I
" budget checking accounts-l0 a check, paid for ahead of time
in books of 25, so you don't have little dimes to keep track of (like
at other banks), and there are no other service charges
" free checking when you maintain a $200 minimum balance or $500
average monthly balance with our regular checking accounts
" Campus Office designed and staffed with you in mind-corner of
William and Thompson, just two blocks from Angell Hall
" all other bankiAg conveniences-money orders, travelers checks,
savings accounts, and so on.
When you start getting your National Bank statements this year,
you'll understand What a difference this "National Bank State-
ment" makes.
