"In fact, Ethel (Kennedy) be a little better, even though was pregnant when we played. Who said tennis players d get around? Michigan sophon Dick Dell thinks the travel as is one of the sport's top fr benefits. "It was last Thanksgiving we played doubles," he rec "my brother, who is a busi associate of Kennedy's, and Et against Bobby and I. We split Actually, when you play someb like that you have to be car of a lot of things that have n 4 ing to do with your game. "The Kennedy's do go in physical fitness though. It's just publicity. That place is a camp." Dell's brother, Donald, wh nine years his senior, is v known by most people who a ciate the last name with the ga Reaches "In 1961," he continues, "he+ un_ was one of the first tennis players to be sent all over the world by may the State Department. And that she included Russia. Three years later, he made the trip again. Having a on't real close look at what can hap- nore pen to tennis players really gave pect me apush."

"When you eful reach a certain point, there is no oth- really significant difference be- tween player's abilities. On our for team, Pete Fishback and Brian not Marcus (also sophomores) have at like least as much talent as I do. It's true I'm ranked number one now, o is but that could change any day.a cell- The one who eventually winds up sso- on top will be the one who works ame. the hardest." Dell goes on to assert that among the best players, the dif- ference between a good and a; great player is simply a few cru- cial points in a set. 'If you saw1 } me warming up with Roy Emer- son, even if he is ten or 11 times better than I am, you probably couldn't tell the difference too+ easily.1 Every Time "In fact, it's almost possible to say that on a given day, any good player can get to 3-3, in a set and 30-30 in points against anybody else. But on just a couple of cru- cial points, the few that deter- mine whether there's going to be a service break or riot, the same players seem to win every time. "these are the players with the mo'st confidence, the ones who are in the best condition, the ones with the most experience. "This is why the Australians do so well. They are taken out of teur school when they're 17 or so, made ally, financially secure, and told to play n his all'the time." This is one reason why Dell sees the having to stay over after school him to play the Big Ten season (a re- next suit of the trimester) as an ad- re- vantage, even though there won't ng a be too many fans at the matches. "After school there aren't any for Tennis Heights courses to worry about, no blue- books, nothing except tennis." Still another sophomore team- mate, Gil DeBotton, concurs, say- ing, "Some team members were scared about taking the week of March 13 off and going to Florida for spring practice. And we'll nave a big advantage over the rest of the league, since they'll still be in school. Of course they tried to get even, scheduling a couple of matches right in the middle of final exams. I guess, now our tests will have to be postponed." Because Michigan is such a heavy favorite to win its tenth Big Ten crown in 13 years (for example, D e B o t t o n, Michigan's number seven man at the mo- ment, was victorious in high school over Northwestern's num- ber one), Dell is taking what might seem to be a very light at- titude toward the Big Ten race. Big Ten-Just Practice? Except for the match with Michigan State's Chuck Brainard, a former Michigan high school champ, Dell is using the season to train for the NCAA champion- ships and the summer tour, which will culminate in the United States Lawn Tennis Championships at Forest Hills, N.Y., in early Sep- tember. "Looks like I'll be late to start school again," says Dell, who did the same thing last year. In the Big Ten individual titles, Dell figures a Michigan player has little to show for winning since' it is so expected; the only excite- ment comes if there is an upset. Come on Down Dell, who seems to do everything for Michigan except clean the courts, also is involved in recruit- ing for the Wolverines. "Because everybody knows everybody else on the tour, unlike other sports, we can call up our friends and get them to come here."

Getting their first taste of inter- collegiate competition, the Wolver- ine frosh jumped on EMU starter Tom Wojicki for seven tallies in the second inning of the opening contest. The Wolverines collected only three hits in the frame, but were helped along by three Huron errors and two walks. Dave Neary, the husky right fielder, highlighted the inning by poling a two-run homer. The seven runs gave Michigan starter Gerry Christman a com- fortable cushion, and he proceeded to go the route allowing only five hits. He also helped his own cause with two hits in three trips and drove in a run. In the nightcap, Michigan again moved out to a 7-0 advantage, with two in the third and five in the fourth. But EMU came storm- ing back, gaining six tallies in the fifth on only two infield hits. The Hurons were aided by the wild- ness of Wolverine moundsman Steve Evans, who walked six bat- ters, and a Michigan error. The Wolverines added a run in the bottom of the sixth, and it r10't mAnogs. 1ONI!. n-1414 C' Ultimately Dell leaves no doubt proved just enough as Eastern he's shooting for the moon, "The scored one in the top of the Davis Cup if I'm good enough." seventh.
