FOREST HILLS, N.Y. (AP) -- Calif. and Billie Jean King, smashed their way to single titles in the U.S. Open Tennis Championships at St. Bernard's, American Swimming in 16 years.
A new era dawned for American tennis, overshadowed for nearly two decades by an unending flow of Australians.

were below the standard they set in winning semi-final victories Tuesday over Tom Ok器 of The Netherlands and Anders Ashle Aske JR.
KODES SERVED eight double-faults, two at break game points. Smith was sluggish in his volleying and reached his greatest heights in the tie-break and reached the match in the fourth set.
It was the sixth tie-break in the tournament for Smith, and he won them all.
"IT'S A different kind of game," Smith said. "You claim all your concentration, wits and guts into those last nine points."
Kodes said the exhausting five-setter of the day before had left him weary
Kodes, who eliminated top-seeded Newcombe in the first round, erased a lead from the run-final seeking the first East European player from behind the Iron Man in this 90-year-old championship.

"I only wanted to win one set of newcombe so I would not be embarrassed," he said. "I do not want to win a tennis. Tennis on grass is a joke."
Palmer Predicts Win In Ryder Cup Tourney
"I just don't see how we can lie," said the 42-year-old Palmer, a former vice president in this old series that pits the leading professionals from the United States against those madduous in a three-day tournament.
"This may be the strongest team we've had," Palmer said of the 12-man squad that represents

Bill Penny Helping Hammer Throwers

So, for the benefit of "most people," the hammer is a 16 pound metal ball attached to a 40 inch handle and has a triangular handle on the end.

Phase two involves turning one's body around in three circles, then raising the hammer and the release of the hammer. If it goes 250 feet the throw will be 140 feet.
However, the plans have hit a snag—not enough volunteers. Only six men have signed up. The main reason for the small turnout is that, as Penny put it, "most often even know what a hamster is."
Yes, Virginia; there still is a hammer throw event in the track plans for the University of Kansas. The plans are being led by Bill Penny, Emporia senior, who has won UK's premier hammer throw.
To throw the hammer, one has to go through three phases. The first phase is taking two seconds of pressure on the hammer over one's head.

the United States and includes Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, Billy Casper and Masters champ Charles Coody.
Penny said he gave his advice and tips because he knows how long it takes to master the skill.
"the name of the game is time spent," he said. "You have to learn the overall concept and then break it into parts."
Time spent includes watching films.
BALANCE BECOMES very important. While winding up, a hammer wheel can build up as pressure pulling against his body.
"Everything has to be perfect," he said. "If there is one mistake anywhere, it can't be compensated for."

"This team could beat the one we had in '63," said Palmer, winner of four titles and $194,000 this season.
Jacklin, along with Peter Butler, were the heroes of Britain's 16-16 tie at Southport, England in 1989, the last time the Americans won the first time since 1957 the Americans had failed to win.
The format calls for Scotch foursomes to be played Thursday night and singles Saturday. Four matches will be played Thursday morning, four Thursday of the week. Fourth-place prevail Friday with eight single matches Saturday morning and another eight Saturday.
Neil Coles, making his sixth Ryder Cup appearance, Irish veteran Christy O'Connor and other are other British standouts.
Penny, who took third in last year's NCAA outdoor championship, was involved in the hammer throw by accident. When he came to KU, he wanted to throw the discus or shot put, he

"But I ran into (Bob) Wilhelm and (Karl) Salb and there was no room," he said. Although Penny had not thrown the hammer in high school, Coach Bob Timmons carried the hammer from there. Penny carried the ball from there.
Those actively participating in the hammer throw workouts are: Gareth Anderson, sophomore, Clark Anderson, Western Springs, III, freshman, Lawrence Dreyfus, Galveston, Mission Dreyfus, Ilh craft, Mission sophomore.
"Right now we're looking for effort and interest and that's what we've got. It just takes a while to build those fundamental's." Timmons said.

"We'll just have to try to adjust if they do something different," he said.
Fambrough said Baylor's defense revolved around the "IF" system, which included who shifted in a variety of sets. On defense, the Bears use a five-star system.
