that once the top Of the back
swing is reached, the time has
come to throw everything into
the downswing.
AS I've pointed out before,
the overall action beginning at
the top of the backswing
should be slow and smooth,
building up to full power just
as the clubhead reaches the
ball on the downswing.
The best way to achieve this
is to think the swing through
before you start it. Picture the
action in your mind-smooth
and relatively slow backswing.
turning the body without
swaying, slow and smooth start
of the downswing. hitting
through the ball with both
hands, and finishing with the
hands opposite the left ear
and the body still on balance.

MacKay goes against Rod

said. "Olmedo is the Wimble-

must be given the edge in his

So Hopman blithely comedies
two singles to the United States
which means that the AussieS
must win the other two singles
plus the doubles to take the
cup down under.

on Fraser and LAYER to beat

Then it's strictly up to Mac
Kay, the towering Air Force
youngster from Dayton, Ohio
AS far as Barry Is concerned
though, Hopman could be in
another world with the astro-

"I'm playing the best tennis

ceivable that If the challenge
round goes down to the wire
MacKay will be sent out tc

Most experts have conceded
the doubles to the Aussies, but
not Perry Jones, the United

He also thinks the team that

football doldrums this season.
Coach Dan Palumbo has a we'll
rounded team that could be
a surprise In the Maryland BIZ

The Wildcats haven't had q

tory IL could claim was q 27-l3
decision over Oxon Hill.
Palumbo lost % lettermen
from last years team, but the
eight he has coming back are
in key spots.
The big question mark for
Northwestern is the status Of
Dave Owens. a 5-foot-ll, 100
pound halfback who broke his
elbow during the winter. Owens
hasn't fully recovered, but he
expects to play later in the
season.
JEFF DENT and Lewis West
are returning halfbacks. Mike
Maholtz. Doug Jones, John
Hamilton and Fred Rodriguez
are up from the jayvees.
John Badaezewski. son Of q
former Redskin guard and last
years starting quarterback, is
back and is being pressed by
Richard Milborne and Phil
Poston, who are making the
Jump from the jayvee squad.
Bob Stanton, a starting
guard vast year, has been
switched to fullback with en-
couraging results. slant o n
played fullback for the jayvee
team two years ago.
Newell Rand returns at one
end and Bob johnson and
Brooks Grady will wage a bat
tie for the other flank. Gary
Forsyth, a letterman, and Bill
Brock are looking good at
guard.

FLORENCE, KY, Aug. AZ
(AP).-A new IS million La
tonia race track opens for busi-
ness near here today-just a
little more than 20 years after
the famous old Latonia track
went out Of existence.
The new track bears the
name Latonia, but it's about
eight miles from where the old
race course was located and
isn't even in Latonia, now a
part Of Covington. And al
though 1t will be opening, there
still Is considerable work to be
done at the track. It is ex-
|pected to be another year be-
fore 1t Is entirely completed.
Track owners expected an
opening-day attendance Of H.
900 for a nine race program
that includes the six-furlong
$l0,0 900 Quickstep Handicap.
The Quickstep, like most Of the
other nine stake races on the
program for the 37-day race
meeting. bears names once used
at the old Latonia track.
Nine horses are entered in
the Quickstep, with s. I. Crews
Cuvier Boy and G. S. Kill
patrick's Mr.. Fantastic carry
ing top weight Of 122 pounds.
Although track officials say
they expect about 300 horses
eventually to be stabbed at the
track. the entries for today's
program were a little on the
slim side. In only three Of the
nine races were there to be
more than seven starters.
The swank grandstand and
clubhouse at the new track
have been built to place all
seats within easy viewing dis
lance Of the finish line. Seat
ing capacity is about 1900.
Gov. A. B. Chandler was to
attend today's opening pro-
gram and present the trophy
to the winner of the Quickstep.
