Scott, formerly with the Virginia Squires of the American Basketball Association, officially signed with the Suns last week when Colangelo negotiated an out-of-court settlement on Virginia's claims to the high-scoring guard. General manager Red Auerbach of the Celtics claimed Silas yesterday saying when the settlement was reached last week, "Phoenix owed us Silas and no one but Silas." The Suns had been trying to talk Auerbacb into accepting somebody other than Silas as payment for Sott, according to sources close to the Suns. "Silas won't be a member of the Celtics until I assign his contract to Boston," Colangelo said, "but Red has obviously closed all the doors. He is being very specific and very em- phatic on what he wants. "The only way Silas could have remained with the Suns after the Scott settlement was if Red changed his mind."' Col- angelo said. Welcomes the Orientation SgStudents to come in and get acquainted WIMBELDON NEARS Smith nets two wins LONDON () -- Stan Smith moved from Mexican clay to English grass yesterday and won two matches in straight sets to start his brief buildup for an assault on the Wimble- don title. The big tennis star from Pasadena, Calif., beat Antonio Zugarelli of Italy 7-5 6-4 and Frew McMillan of South Africa 6-4, 6-4 to reach the third round of the London Grass Courts Championships at the Queen's Club. Smith flew in late Monday night after helping the United States to a 5-0 hammering of Mexico in the Davis Cup. He got up yesterday morning to find he was the top seed both at the Queen's Club and at Wim- bledon, which starts next Mon- day. He had one hour's practice with Tom Gorman, another member of the U.S. team in Mexico, and then both went straight on court to play their first matches. Neither had played on grass since Forest Hills last August. Gorman of Seattle, Wash., didn't stand up to the or- deal so well. He beat Syd Ball of Australia 6-3, 6-4 and went through most of his second round match against Paolo Bertolucci of Italy, but then pulled out because of back trouble. "It's not all thai bad,"' Gor'- man said as he relaxed in a hot bath later. "But it was hurt- ing me and I felt it would be pretty crazy to go on and risk aggravating it. Wimbledon means a lot to me. and it's so close." Bertolucci was leading 6-2, 2- 6. 8-7 when Gorman retired. The American's back troubled him throughout last year's Wimbledon, when he upset Rod Laver and lost to Smith in the semifinals. Smith, trying to adjust him- self to the grass here, had trouble returning servicerin both his matches. lHis service and volleying looked very sharp. Another member of the U.S. team in Mexico, Erik Van Dii- len of San Mateo, Calif., won a match and lost one. He over- came Nicola Pietrangeli, 38- year-old Italian veteran. 6-4, 6-3 but then Stan Matthews of Britain eliminated him 6-3, 2-6, 6-2.
