The new champions, each of
whom received $22,500 cash
prizes plus new automobiles and
other loot, succeed a pair of
Australians - Margaret Smith
Court, now retired while ex-
pecting a second child, and John
Newcombe, who had been beat-
en by Rosewall in the semi-
finals.
The American titles have
been Australian property for
much of the last two decades.
Australians have won the
men's title 13 times since
1956. Mrs. Court had won
five of the last eight women's
championships.
Connors dazed a gallery of a
sellout crowd of more than 15,-
000 with his whirlwind assault
against one of the game's clas-
sic stroke-makers and all-time
great players.
He never lost a service and
permitted the pint-sized Aus-
tralian, whom he previously
had beaten in straight sets at
Wimbledon, only two widely
separated games - the fifth
game of the opening set and
the fourth game of the third
set, both on the Australian's
service.
Rosewall himself became so
discouraged near the end that
his head dropped, his shoulders
sagged and he just shook his
head in disbelief as Connors
drilled shot after shot into the
corners and cross court place-
ments.

the aging Aussie in three
straight sets. Billie Jean King

Gridde Picks
It's that time of year again: Bobbing for apples under a
harvest moon, sorority rush, freshmen still buying those handy
elevator passes, shirmp creole in the cafeteria, Rosh Hashana,
the crabgrass begins to wither and die, Jack Frost makes his
season opener, and not to be forgotten-Gridde Pickings returns
to its hallowed dwelling spot in the pages of the Daily.
You can get in on the action by getting your entry in by
twelve o'clock Friday midnight to the Daily, 420 Maynard. Each
week the winner will receive one free corned beef sandwich,
compliments of the Vaudeville delicatessen.
