Nasty clown
Michigan tennis star Freddie DeJesus and his partner Peter
Fleming, a former Michigan student now enrolled at UCLA, lost
6-3, 7-6 yesterday to Arthur Ashe and Ilie Nastase in a first-round
match of the Louisville Pro Tennis Classic.
Nastase appeared with dark makeup all over his face, break-
ing up the crowd as well as Ashe, who is black.
"They make us dress alike," Nastase said, referring to
the players' union code for doubles, "so why shouldn't we
look alike."
The temperamental Romanian came into the clubhouse, shield-
ing his face with his jacket. A few minutes later, he emerged
from the lockerroom for the first round match, and Ashe began
to laugh.
Nastase tried and failed on the first point, vainly swinging
his racket behind his back at the ball. But he soon settled down
clowning only occasionally.
Bryant stays in L.A.
National Football League commissioner Pete Rozelle has
reversed his decision that granted the contract rights of Los
Angeles Ram running back Cullen Bryant to the Detroit Lions,
in compensation for ex-Lion Ron Jessie who signed as a free
agent with the Rams.
The Lions will instead receive the 1976 first-round draft
choice previously acquired by the Rams from the Green Bay
Packers, and such additional compensation in the form of a draft
choice, as Rozelle's office may determine appropriate after the
conclusion of the 1975 season.
Wilt spikes
LOS ANGELES-Wilt Chamberlain, the National Basketball
Association's all-time leading scorer, ended his athletic retirement
yesterday and at the same time became an owner-in volleyball,
not basketball.
The 7-foot-2 giant, who once averaged more than 5 points
per game for an entire NBA season, purchased the Southern
California Bangers of the International Volleyball Association,
Chamberlain's attorney said.
Seymour Goldberg said Chamberlain "will be directly involved
and will play" for the Bangers, but probably won't play in all
the team's games. "He'll be active, but not on a regular game-by-
game basis."
Taylor critical
DAVENPORT, Iowa-Former Olympic wrestler Chris Taylor
was listed in serious condition yesterday in the intensive care unit
of Mercy Hospital with what hospital officials described as a deep
abscess in the calf of his right leg.
Taylor was in town for a professional wrestling show Tuesday
night.
DeRusha said Taylor's doctor said the abscess may have
been caused by a severe blow during a wrestling match July
26 but added there is no way to know for sure.
He also suffers from septicemia, a medical term for blood
poisoning, but a hospital spokesman said his condition is im-
proving.
