Mckinley Turns Tables on LWer,
Meets Reed in Indoor Net Final

The Reed-Santana match
was a weird one in which six
service breaks occurred in the
first seven games, five in sue
cession at one stage.
After stepping off to a So
lead, Reed let the first set get
away. But he bounded back to
win the second set without loss
of a game and then to dominate
the last two with his unortho-
doX, tricky style.
He delighted the gallery of
5000 with his casual play, pune
tuated with a round-house
backhand that was constantly
pulling off points, lobs and vol
leys that caught Santana flat
footed.
The match-clinching point
was a lazy lob that sent the
Spaniard crashing into the
curtains at the back of the
court.
Mckinley and Laver, along
with Reed and Ron Holmberg
of Brooklyn, gained the final
round of the doubles. Mckinley
and Laver downed Don Dell
of Bethesda, Nd, and Eugene
Scott of st. James, N. Y, 6-3
