ROCHESTER DEMOCRAT AND CHRONICLE Saturday, Ian. 9, 1971 Tonioi aver, Skiing with King Newcombe NX-V III I II II I X-Country Ski Tour Tomorrow a TENNIS 3 yv CHAMPIONSHIP it A iw i 'J it it A 12-point sudden death will be played, the first man to reach seven points wins the set. In the event of a 6-6 tie, a two-point advantage will decide the game. A sudden death game counts as two games, ending a set at 7-5. Nine players are entered in the pro tourney with Roy Emerson, Arthur Ashe, Tom Okker, Pancho Gonzalez and Roger Taylor the others who will take their turns at the reigning leader.

Last year Laver collected $35,000 just for winning the finai Classic match. This yea-he could win as much as $170,000 by winning it all. Rochester is the only city outside of major league status involved in the Classic matches, the others being New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, Detroit, Cleveland and Los Anga-les. An exhibition match between local television personalties Bob Mills and Tom Decker will take place at noon today at the War CLASSIC By CRAIG STOLZE Rod Laver, defending champion in the $210,000 Tennis Champions Classic and generally considered the greatest player of this era, takes on challenger John Newcombe at 8 p.m. tonight at the War Memorial.

The winner of the $10,000 wi-ner-take-all match, which wiil be the best-of-five sets, will continue in the tournament, playing Tony Roche in Boston Wednesday night. Laver, who won an unpre-cendented $203,000 last year, opened the tourney last weekend in New York City's Madison Square Garden, beating Ken Rosewall in straight sets. Laver, 32-year-old southpaw from Queensland, Australia, is the only man in tennis history to have won the Grand Slam twice, winning in Australia, France, Wimbledon and Forest Hills in 1962, then repeating in 1968. Laver turned pro in '62, not long after his sweep that year, and he immediately rose to the top of the play-for pay boys. Skiers will get their first opportunity to join in that booming sport of cross country touring tomorrow.

Mai Stamp, the leading local booster of this Nordic way of life, will lead a four-mile tour around Powder Mill Park beginning at 1 p.m. This will be an excellent opportunity to find out what the sport is all about because Stamp says the easy trail is largely intended for novices and intermediates. Meeting place will be the Little Powder Horn Ski Lodge and it will be open early for those who would like to combine a picnie with the ski touring. The growth of cross county touring hastaken just about everybody in the ski world by surprise. One Rochester ski shop has sold more than 800 pairs of cross country skis ROD LAYER In Newcombe he'll be meeting a fellow countryman.

John, the reigning Wimbledon champion, is rated No. 1 in the world by World Tennis magazine. He's returning to competition after a two-months break. Newcombe is a 26- JOHN NEWCOMBE face which is being used at all tournament sites. It has been laid down over the War Memorial basketball The surface is made of -inch acrylic fiber face.

A sudden death system will be used in all sets when the score is tied at five games year-old native of Sidney, Australia. Newcombe has not had much success against the bandy-legged Laver, winning once in eight pro tries, but he insists that he does not lack "I have a plan, and an alternate plan," he said during a respite from practice here "You have to think to beat Rod, you just can't go out there and hope to beat him by seeing what develops." Tonight's match will be played on a sythetic court sur- If this season. Many of the big ski areas realize the cross country boom is here to stay and are laying out trails and keeping them packed with snowmobiles. One of the leaders is Stratton Mountain, now offering ski touring lessons every day except Sunday. Janice Fleetwood is the instructor.

Carries Ball for Orange, Broncos Syracuse's Little: A Pro All the ay Paul Pinckney's Regional Report In the diary of a former Syracuse University football Ail-American is a story looking for a happy ending. He is a black man. A sensitive and talented black man whose impressive credentials accept defeat "If these guys can pull together and develop the attitude, they can be a fine football team. I don't care what the circumstances are if the desire and determination are there, there's no way you can't make it When the blacks quit the squad and never returned, the blow was crushing for the Bronco. He never retracted his the records show, because his words were spoken with great understanding.

Little has suffered many injuries during his football career. None was more painful than the 1970 incident at Even more depressing to Little was the racial issue at his alma mater. His caustic comment at a Syracuse University pre-saa-son workout, many contend, accelerated the walkout of 10 black varsity members. While serving as a spring assistant under head coach Ben Schwartzwalder, he criticized Orange aspirants, white and black, in an interview published in the Daily Orange, the student newspaper. Floyd, who undoubtedly was trying to rev up the squad Psychologically, said, among other things: "They've got so much talent out there.

All they need is the right attitude. They must learn to keep fighting, not to ond best mark in Bronco history, topped only by the 954 yards gained by Cookie Gilchrist, late of the Buffalo Bills, in 1965. Still, it was a disappointing year for Floyd. He and his dejected teammates bowed to the Browns, 27-13, with the team again plagued by many mental errors. The loss dropped Denver into last place in the rugged Western Division of the American Conference with a 5-8-1 log, identical to the finish of 1969.

have won him professional accolades ever since he was drafted by the Denver Broncos in 1967. He is Floyd Little, a nifty running back carrying 195 pounds and standing 5-10. Ill luck has dogged the New Haven, 28-year-old in his pro career. Injury after injury has limited his playing time with the pros. As a matter of fact, the 1970 season marked the first time that Little has appeared in all 14 regular season contests.

After missing six contests a year ago because of a knee injury, Floyd competed in 19 straight for the lowly Broncos, including pre-season games The onetime Hillhouse and Bordentown, N.J. Prep whiz, who always has been one of the most feared ball-carriers In the game, now has his flrs American Conference rushing title. To add that crown to his many accomplishments, Little needed a strong performance in the season windup. He responded to the pressure against Cleveland and picked up 44 yards to be the leading rusher in the game. He finished with 901 yards as compared with 874 by the fast-closing Larry Csonka of the Miami Dolphins, another ex-Orangeman, and 861 by He-writt Dixon of the Oakland Raiders.

Floyd's total is also the sec ERICH STURM IF RACING IS YOUR THING, THE PLACE TO be this weekend is Bluemont where professional ski races are to be held today and tomorrow. This will be the only pro race in the area this season. Eluemont's Ski School director Bill Gruden said conditions should be good to excellent. The Yorkshire area has been getting snow for the last two days. Gruden emphasized that the pro races will not interfere with recreational skiing there.

Bill said pros who will be racing in the side-by-side stvle that provides plenty of thrills will include U.S. Olympian Billy Kidd, Pepi Steigler, Egori Zim-merman, Bristol Mountain's Erich Strum, Canadian champion Rod Hebron and Manfred Krings. The races'will start at noon for $7,000 in prize money. AREA SKI PATROLMEN WILL BE FETED at Frost Ridge tonight. Linda Cashette and Elaine Hager are working up a big program of entertainment that should go on and.

on into the night. SWAIN HAD THE BIGGEST EARLY SEASON crowd in its history last weekend. Despite the approximate 1,500 skiers who showed up each day, the liftline wait was only seven minutes we timed it. "If we get many weekends like this, you can look for a chairlift next season," said a happy Dave Robinson as he surveyed the crowd. "And it will go right there," he said, pointing to the undeveloped area just to the right of the main T-bar.

BY THE WAY, GARY MUXWORTHY HAS THE final solution for those bugged by long lift lines -build your own ski lift. It may cost you a grand or two, or three or four, but after that it's all downhill. Gary, who operates Muxworthy's Ski Haus, bought 40 acres on one of the highest hills in the Bristol Hills. His place is right back of Bristol Mountain. Then he put up an A-frame ski lodge and a 630-foot-long rope tow.

The run will be extended to 2,000 feet next year. "I really did it in self defense," Gary explained. "Come Saturday night, my wife and I were ready to take it easy. But the kids, Karin 6, Doug 7 and Glenn 8, were rarin' to go. They wanted to be taken skiing.

Now they can go skiing when they want to and invite their friends. And we can relax." A big plus for those considering building their own ski lift is having knowledgeable friends. Gary gives all credit for the brain work and the bull work on his lift to Ron Raab and Joe Palis, a couple of Kodak engineers, and Tom Champion of the Ironde-quoit Highway Department. And they get to ski without lift lines too. FLOYD LITTLE a leader again Eagles' Back Testifies In Shooting Assault I Koerner Sold 10,000 Cars In 70 in 4 Dealerships We'll Sell 12,080 Oars In 71 2m i PHILADELPHIA (AP) -Nat Ramsey, defective back for the Philadelphia Eagles football team, testified yesterday against the man accused of shooting him last month.

The defendant, James L. Harrison, 35, was held for the grand jury after a hearing before Municipal Court Judge Edward S. Cox. He was charged with assault with intent to kill and other offenses. Bail of $5,000 was continued.

Ramsey said the shooting occurred just after he left the Fountain Head Bar, where he had a glass of wine. Ramsey said he was walking toward 52nd and Spruce Streets, to buy a newspaper when someone called: "I want to see you." Ramsey said he turned and saw Harrison standing a few feet away. He said Harrison fired twice into the ground and next fired the shot that struck Ramsey in the chest. Harrison, who surrendered to police two days after the shooting, did not testify.
