District Weight-Lifter
Gets Olympic Chance
BY the Assoeiaisd Press

HELSINKI, June 25.-Bob Hoff-
man, coach of the American
weightlifting team in the Olympic
games, said today he had
scratched Richard Tom and Rich
ard Tomita, both Of Honolulu.
from the Olympic competition.
He said they would be replaced
by Stanley Stanczyk Of Miami,
Fla, and James Bradford of
Washington, D. c., who originally
had been listed as alternates.
Hoffman said the move was
made because Tom, the bantam
weight entry, and Tomita, feath-
erweight, wouldn't finish in the
first 10 anyway.
Each team may enter only
seven lifters. There had been
some confusion as to whether the
alternates could replace the origi-
nal nominations. The Interna-
tional Federation finally cleared
up that point yesterday. giving
Hoffman a free hand to use
Stanczyk and Bradford.
Hoffman said it was his duty to
enter the best men he has avail
able. He added that Stanczyk and
Bradford have a good chance to
finish in the first three. while the
two Hawaiians' best performances
could not compare with those by
other nations.

BALTIMORE, July Is. Two
Mexican players little known to
tennis fans in the United States,
are favored to capture the Middle
Atlantic Grass Court doubles
championship following a spec
tacular upset yesterday of top
seeded Dick Savitt and Fred Kov-
aleski.
Gustavo Palafox and Pancho
Puente, ranked first and second
respectively, in Mexico. scored a
stunning victory at Baltimore
Country Club over Savitt and
Kovaleski, rs, IS. This put
them into the semifinal round
where tomorrow they will meet
the winner of the match between
Don Fontanna and Lorne Maine
of Canada and Jacque Grigry and
Ellis Slack Of California. -
Palafox, who earlier had de-
feated Dick Gaines, Ga, 6-1, to
reach the singles quarter finals,
and Puente gained the fancy of
the crowd by their sharp volleying,
fine spirit and colorful play.
Another upset was registered
in the singles when Fred Hagist,
20-year-old University of Cali
fornia senior, beat fourth-seeded
Grant Golden, 81, 6-1.
In an interesting match, Don
Candy, ranked eighth in Australia,
beat Luis Ayala. first-ranking
player in Chile. The victory re-
versed a previous meeting this
year in Paris when the South
American won a close battle.
Kovaleski continued his win
ming ways in the singles, defeat
ing Grigry, Ga, GO. If he de-
feats Ricardo Balbiers of Chile
and Savitt beats Main in their
matches today, a sizzling meet
ing may be expected.
