Red W
DETROIT (AP) - Danny Belisle,
former coach -of the Washington
Capitals, was named yesterday as
assistant coach of the Detroit Red
Wings, the National Hockey League
team announced.
Belisle, 45, spent the past two
seasons coaching the Dallas
Blackhawks of the Central Hockey
League, the Red Wings said. Dallas,
now defunct, was affiliated with the
NHL's Vancouver Canucks.
"I'VE KNOWN and respected Danny
for several years," Red Wings Coach
Nick Polano said.
"His coaching credits speak for
themselves - he's a winner."
Poano cited Belisle's record in minor
league coaching. His Des Moines team
won International Hockey League
championships in 1973-74 and 1974-75.
In the 1976-77 season, Belisle's Syracuse
club skated to the North American
Hockey League championship.
THE RED WINGS said Belisle signed
a multi-year contract. Terms were not
disclosed. Belisle played for several
teams in the American Hockey League,
the old Western League and the CHL
during a 15-year career. He retired af-
ter the 1970-71 season.
Belisle coached the Capitals during
the 1978-79 season and partway
through the 1979-80 season. His teams
compiled a 28-51-17 record before he
was replaced in November 1979 by
Gary Green.
The Red Wings, recently purchased
by pizza franchise owner Mike Ilitch
from longtime owner Bruce Norris, had
1 the second-worst record in the NHL last
season. In addition, the team has made
the postseason playoffs only twice in
the past 16 years and not since 1978.

Canadian makes seeond round

TORONTO (AP)- Martin Wostenholme became the first
Canadian in 15 years to advance beyond the second round of
the Canadian Open tennis championships with a 2-6, 6-2, 6-2
victory yesterday over American Ben Testerman at the
Player's International tournament.
Mike Belkin was the last Canadian to make it this far and
he eventually was eliminated in the quarterfinals in 1969. Bob
Bedard was the last Canadian to win the title, doing so in
1958.
TENTH-SEEDED Chip Hooper of the United States was
the lone upset victim in second-round afternoon matches
Wednesday, falling to Stefan Simonsson of Sweden 7-5, 6-2,
while a few seeds were pressed to three sets.
Fourth-seeded Vitas Gerulaitis of the United States defeated
Colombian Alegandro Cortes, 6-7, 6-3, 6-2. No. 8 Steve Denton
of the United States beat Carlos Kirmayr of Brazil 3-6, 6-3, 6-
0, and No. 13 Ramesh Krishnan of India stopped
Czechoslovakian Stanislov Birner 7-6, 2-6, 7-6.
Top-seeded John McEnroe of the United States swept
Spaniard Juan Avendano 6-2, 64, No. 2 Ivan Lendl of
Czechoslovakia whipped transplanted American Andrew

Pattison 6-0, 6-4, No. 6 Mats Wilander of Sweden downed
American Trey Waltke 6-3, 6-4 and No. 11 Shlomo Glickstein
of Israel beat South African Danie Visser 6-4, 6-1.
IN SECOND-ROUND action Wednesday night, second-
seeded Jimmy Connors drew fellow American Jay Lapidus,
while Glenn Michibata, the only other Canadian survivor in
singles play, was to face No. 9 Tim Mayotte of the United
States.
With the win, Wostenholme, Yale University's No. 1 singles
player, continued his breakthrough into the Grand Prix cir-
cuit, earning 20 Association of Tennis Professional computer
points to add to the four he gained from the Alcan Cup circuit
this summer.
In the first round Monday, he beat American Rick Fagel
after dropping the first set. After ending up on the short end
of long rallies in the first set Wednesday, Wostenholme, 19,
started making his comeback charge in the third game of the
second set.
"I JUST STARTED hitting the balla lot harder and putting
my forehand down the line," said Wostenholme of his win
over Testerman, who had upset seventh-seeded Mark
Edmondson of Australia in the first
round Monday. "I was really tentative
at the beginning as I hit some shots that
I thought were gone, but he's muscle
'em back.".
The long third game seemed to wear
down Testerman, who ended up double-
faulting three times as Wostenholme
broke to take the first of his eight
straight games.
"I think he got a little tired,"
Wostenholme said.
The last two sets were a complete
turnaround as Wostenholme dominated
with passing shots down the line and un-
forced errors by his 20-year-old op-
ponent.
