Ilackara lac 5 Upset Win
Puts Hin in Tennis
Crown Picture

Jim Thackara may not win The
Star-sponsored City of Washington
tennis tournament in the current
epidemic of ball-swatting at Six
teenth and Kennedy streets, bui
some students of the chalk and
chop game consider him potential
No. rank material Ii he continues
to play regularly.
Thackara took another step uL
the ladder to recognition yesterday
by trimming fourth-seeded Bill Gif-
ford, 81, 6-3, in one of the days
best matches, and at times displayed
flashes of championship. form. He
ran Clifford ragged. to coin q phase
and at the finish was batting the
ball with the same ease, studied
form that marks his particular style
Burke Wilkinson, Thackara's
doubles partner and stanchest sup
porter, doesn't think his pal is quite
ready to knock the crown of King
Barney Welsh's regal brow, but give
him time, and he'll scramble the
District ratings. Thackaras game
still is rusty from a long layoff.
| He's equally steady on his fore
hand and backhand," explained
Burke, who qualities as tennis
expert by his experience covering
the Wimbledon matches for Lawn
Tennis Magazine last year. He
plays with an economy of effort and
has a beautiful cross-court game
It is simple strategy-merely run
the other fellow into defeat. That's
what he did to Clifford, who inquite
a player, and he'll beat some Bthers
the same way"
Thackara should be economical
with his shots, since economy is his
dish. He got degree-ful of the law
of supply and demand, statistics and
the rest of it at Harvard, where he
also was Wilkinson's teammate one
year. More recently, Thackara has
been in Rio de Janeiro where he
found time to earn the towns No. l
ranking while serving as economist
on the World Bank staff.

trouble yesterday. Seyenth-seeded
