Scoreboard

P: While South Americans were taking the big matches at Wimbledon (see above), only a handful of spectators turned out" to watch a blond, 16-year-old Estonian named Toomas Lejus win Russia's first Wimbledon title by routing Brazilian Davis Cupper Ronald Barnes 6-2, 6-4 for the junior championship, proving how far the Soviets have come in their drive for big-time tennis.

In came Billy Jurges, 51, the old National League shortstop (Chicago, New York), who declared an equally obvious formula for pulling up his Sox: "Ted Williams and a little extra hustle."
