suburban Finchley 6-3, 6-4, 6-2.
Laver, his left-handed touch
spectacular, dominated Jean-
Claude Molinari of France 6-3,
6-3, 6-0. '
MacKay To Meet Laver
In tomorrow's semiflinals, Mac-
Kay goes against the tricky, left-
handed Layer while Olmedo faces
Emerson, who grew up in sub-
tropical Brisbane with the former
U.S. Champion, Mal Anderson,
now a pro.
The women's quarter-finals are
scheduled tomorrow. Darlene Hard
of Montebello, Calif., plays Bri-
tain's left-handed Anne Haydon.
Sally Moore of Bakersfield, Calif.,
meets Yola Ramirez of Mexico.
Teammates Olmedo and Mac-
Kay took different routes to the
semi-finals.
_ The cha cha-living, beer-drink-
ing Olmedo, with the blood of the
Incas coursing through his veins,
was like a deft matador on the
court. Quick and graceful, he'
struck with rapier strokes which:
continually caught Ayala off bal-
ance.
MacKay, on the other hand, was
more like the bull. Six-feet-four,,
slow and cumbersome, he brought
the left-handed' Fraser to his
knees with sheer power and a
fighting heart which refused to
quit.
Plagued with double-faults and
wildness in the early stages, the1
giant Ohioan appeared headed for
defeat when he dropped the third
set without winning a game.
' Tactics Effective
Returning from intermission,
however, the 23-year-old Yank1
was grim and determined. He
let up a little on his go-for-broke
power and concentrated on keep-.
ing the ball in court. The tactics
proved highly effective.
In the fourth set MacKay got
an early service break and rode
it out. Now it was two sets each
and the crowd on the No. 1 court,
including the Duchess of Kent,
edged up on their seats.
Fraser, whose left-handed, high
kicking service is one of the dead-
liest in amateur tennis, won the;
first game when MacKay was
troubled by dust flakes which got
in his eye.

But he came back to win his
own service and then pile up
game upon game as Fraser's con-
fidence and stroking touch de-
teriorated. MacKay won six games
in a row for the final set and
match.
When Fraser hit a backhand,
volley out of court for the de-
cisive point, MacKay leaped high
in the air and threw his 'arms
around friends who rushed onto
the court.
Played Little
"I've played so little tennis re-
cently a match like that really
takes it out of me," said Mac-
Kay, who has been serving in the
U.S. Air Force since March. "I

just kept kicking myself on. I
guess it paid off."
Olmedo, 23, beaten in the first
round of his only other Wimble-
don appearance in 1957, delighted
the gallery of more thap 20,000
with his stroking artistry.
With the. greatest of ease," he
sent his booming service into the
corners. He glided over the' court
like a jungle cat, scoring on pick-
ups, half-volleys, delicate short
shots and smashing overhead.
Olmedo raced to a 3-0 lead in
the first set but Ayala, steady off
the ground, fought back to make
it 4-4. The Chilean, winner of the
Italian championship, lost the de-
cisive 12th game at love, double-
faulting at set point.

MUIRFIELD, Scotland (R) -
Willie Goggin, the World Senior
Professional Champion from San
Jose, Calif., shot a two-under-par
70 yesterday and led 13 Ameri-
cans seeking to qualify for the
British Open Golf Championship.
The 53'-year-old Californian
didn't have the best score of the
day - there were some in the
60s - but he managed to out-
shoot the two tournament favor-
ites as well as all his U. S. con-
temporaries with his 34-36-70
over the Gullane course.
Peter Thomson of Australia,
defending champion and four-
time winner, had to chip in from
60 feet on the final green for a 71.
South Africa's heavily-backed
Gary Player had to settle for the
same score. Both also played at
Gullane.

SAN FRANCISCO (P)-Presntiss
C. Hale, president of the organizing
committee for next year's winter
Olympics games at Squaw Valley,
reiterated yesterday that National-
ist China will have the chance to
compete while Red China will not.
Hale conferred with Avery Brun-
dage, president of the Interna-
tiohal Olympic Committee, over
the recent IOC action on the Chi-
nese situation.
The 'organizing committee chief
issued a statement:
"1. The Olympic Committee of
the Republic of China. (Nationalist
China) has been 'invited to parr.
ticipate in the Squaw Valley games
by the VIII Olympic Winter Games
Organizing Committee; the Re-
public of ChIna's Olympic Commit-

They are southpaws Roger Arm-

righthander Aubrey Lee Gatewood
of Little Rock, Ark.

the Chinese Democratic Republic
(Red China) was not recognized
by the IOC at the time the or-
ganizing committee issued its invi-
tations to participate; it is not,
recognized by the IOC at present
and it will not be permitted to
participate in the 1960 winter
games.
The only reason for keeping Red
China out so far reported is the
time element. Entries close eight
weeks prior to the games. And the
next meeting of the IOC isn't
scheduled until Feb. 15, three days
before the winter games open.
Brundage was quoted:
"Recent reports that the, Na-
tionalist Chinese have been denied
admission under the name "Re-
public of China,' or a variation
thereof, are not true. -
"Discussions with: the Chinese on
Formosa have been proceeding am-
icably and I feel certain that an
agreement will be reached."
Brundage said the IOC must
"face the fact that under present
conditions the olympic committee
on Taiwan (Formosa) does not and
cannot control sport on the main-
land.
"The OIC has no political axe to
grind. The IOC does not meddle
in politics nor is it doing so now.
Indeed, it is attempting to remain
as far away as possible by accord-
ing both groups of Chinese athletes
an opportunity for recognition."

MONTH-END PRE-
fr w
for wear now and seasons to come

A leadoff home run in the ninth
by a former Tiger farmhand, Kent
Hadley, sent the contest into over-
time.
Barney Schultz came in to pitch
in the 10th and fumbled a boun-
cer hit by pitched Bud Daley.
Schultz walked Jerry Lumpe and
was lifted in favor of southpaw
R. G. Smith.
Smith then threw away Dick
Williams' sacrifice bunt. Daley
and Lumpe both scored and Wil-
liams raced all the way to third.
Before the befuddled Tigers got
out the inning, 12 Kansas City
batters had come to bat and eight
of them scored. The Athletics
banged four straight hits off
Smith and collected two more off
Dave Sisler, the third pitched to
work the inning.
Hadley, who already had a since
gle and his sixth home run,
doubled Williams across. Roger
Maris, Bob Cerv and another ex-
Tiger Frank House singled before
former Tiger infielder Ray Boone
doubled off Sisler to drive in an-
other run and Lumpe singled

across the final tally before Sisler
retired the side.
It was the second time in four
days the Tigers had given up
eight runs in a single inning.
Baltimore did it in the first game
of Friday's twi-night double-
header.
It was the second time an error
by Schultz caused a Tiger defeat.
His two-out fumble against the
Washington Senators in the ninth
inning eight days ago let in the
winning run in a 4-3 defeat.
Daley neededNed Garver to get
the final two outs but received
credit for his eighth triumph.
Daley yielded single runs in the
first and fourth innings, then
put down several Tiger threats
as his teammates plodded from
behind for the ninth inning tie.
Gus Zernial, who doubled home
Detroit's first run, hit a two-
bagger leading off the 10th.
Garver came on after Johnny
Groth singled. Garver, still an-
other ex-Detroiter, gave up a run-
producing single to Rocky Bridges
but got the next two batters.
Jim Bunning started for Detroit
but was injured in the third in-
ning when Lumpe's screaming
liner struck him in the right
wrist. Bunning suffered a bruise
and will be out five or six days.
Tom Morgan, his successor,
gave up a sacriflice fly that
brought home the Athletics' only
run until Hadley cracked Mor-
gan's first pitch into the upper
right field seats in the ninth
inning.

his home in Goteborg, Sweden. A
hero's welcome awaits him there.
Denied Report
He denied a Swedish report
quoting Dr. Gosta Karlsson, his
p e r s o n a l physician, that he
planned to retire after two more
fights. Later Dr. Karlsson said at
Goteborg that his statement had
been misinterpreted.
"Ingo has never hinted about
retirement," said Dr. Karlsson,
who was in Johansson's corner
when Ingo knocked out Floyd
Patterson in the third round Fri-
day to win the title.
. "This was only my own per-
sonal opinion. I thought the wis-

be to retire from the champion-

and accept the generous offers he
has received from various film
companies."
