Jaroslav Drobny, the sclf-ex- lied Czech who won the title last year, began his defense of it with a 6-3, 6-1, 6-2 triumph over Rene Buser of Switzerland. Ham Richardson of Baton Rouge, was the first "name" player among the Americans to be ousted. Richardson, the Davis in the United States, was de-j feated by Swedish Champion Sven Davidson, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 4-6 8-6. The Louisiana player was unseeded in the tournament while Davidson is seeded eighth.

Herb Flam of Beverly Hills, and Bob Perry of Los Angeles entered the second round. Flam eliminated Bob Bedard of Canada, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2, and Perry defeated Farhang Mohtadi of Iran, 6-4, 6-2, 5-7, 6-2. Overcast and sultry weather greeted the opening day crowd of 20,000 as 128 of the world's top players clashed in 64 first round men's singles contests. Most of the crowd wandered about the 15 other courts while Drobny opened the sixty-ninth all-England championships with an easy victory over the Swiss Davis Cup player on the lush green turf of the famed center court. Drobny, who has been troubled by a variety of ailments, looked much heavier and slower than when he won the title last year.

Seixas is seeded third behind Tony Trabert of Cincinnati and Ken Rosewall of Australia. Sid Schwartz of Brooklyn and John Ager of Atlanta, also won their first round matches as 19 Americans tried for second round berths. Schwartz defeated Ernesto Delia Paolora of Argentina, 6-3, 7-5, 3-6, 6-3, while Ager ousted John Ward of Britain, 4-6. 6-0, 6-2, 6-4. Drobny Not at Ills Best.

Got Our Goat 1 1 MWWiiwi'iiwiwiMiiiUiM ummmtmwmamHBmmmm By Bob Broeg- The kid Cardinals today had been given another lesson by the veteran Dodgers, not the least signiiicant point of which was that there are vitamins of victory in the good ol' sunshine. No one would deny that Brooklyn's well-seasoned athletes are extremely able night or day, home or away, but the figures prove that the prancing pace-setters have been devastat- jing in the daylight, After yesterday's 7-4 series-deciding triumph over the Red- birds at Busch Stadium, Manager Walter Alston's club had a tremendous daytime record of 30 victories in 33 games, compared with a considerably less spectacular 16-11 at night. Jackie Robinson, the graying panther, summed up the Dod gers atfection tor day baseball as he tied a Windsor knot in a visiting clubhouse steaming from summer weather's first visit. Robinson, picking his spots now, had returned to the Brooklyn lineup and delivered three hits. But, someone suggested, it must have been really hot out Robinson grinned, flexing his shoulder muscles, and said, "Naw, that sun feels good.

Makes old bones feel young again." Upstairs In the Cardinals' clubhouse, by contrast, Floyd (Goat i Wooldridgc, the Redbird starting pitcher, was complaining that he hadn't been accus tomed to the heat. No Alibi Needed. Why, man, down in the Texas League" from which he just came "we even start Sundav doubleheaders at 7 p.m.," said The Goat, who struggled into the fifth inning before he was lifted after allowing 10 of Brooklyn's 15 hits. Wooldridge didn't need an ali bi because even though he didn't have his best fast ball, in Coach Bill Posedels judgment, and de spite the fact he obviously tired after early base-running. The Goat showed his courage.

He hung in there to the extent Brooklyn had only two runs in four innings on a "homer, two doubles and five singles. But Wooldridge will have to get used to the sunshine because this is the big leagues even the night-owl Cardinals must play some day games and the fledg ling Redbirds will have to learn to do better in natural light. They've got a night record of 15 victories, 14 defeats, but they've won only 10 and lost 19 in the sunshine. They've got a lot to learn, as Manager Harry Walker has observed, and there's nothing like a series with the poised and polished Brooklyn professionals to point out the differences. When, for example, a hit skipped past Carl Furillo in right center, there was Duke.

Snider, alertly backing up the right fielder to avoid an extra base and a run. And when a Cardinal double steal misfired in the fourth during the tag-end of a run-and-hlt situation that re sulted in Walker's first ejeeinn as Redbird manager, the Dodger handled the rundown so expertly that there was an absolute minimum of risky ball-handling. The Small Touches. The Cardinals, bv contrast, again displayed their Inexperi ence in numerous little ways. To illustrate, Bill virdon, destined to be a great outfielder, hadn't learned the carom in the right field corner and permitted a ball to play him, rebounding away long enough for a run to score from first on a short double.

And in his eagerness later, Virdon committed a damaging double-error that contributed two Brooklyn runs. So Brooklyn needed help against a medley relay of the mound that, in addition to Wooldridge, included Brooks Lawrence, Tom Poholsky, Paul La Palme and Frank Smith. And the Dodgers got even better aid from their own bullpen. After Carl F.rskine was pounded out in the fifth inning with none away, rookie southpaw Karl Spooner permitted only four safeties and no runs thereafter. And while the daylight-dandy Larry Goetz alfl' 1 Howe, 7-5, 7-5, Lew, Who cnampionsnip.

Profetsional at Work. NEW YORK. June 20. BOBO OLSON, a good fist fighter since his days of apprentice brawling with sailors in the streets of Honolulu, may be the most thoughtfully trained athlete now in operation.

He knows how to fight and how to get ready for i fight. He is a professional. The middleweight champion ef the world does not work more faithfully or give his body more respectful care than Rocky Marciano, because nobody could. Olson fights cftener than the heavyweight thampion. and trains differently.

To many fighters, the punching bag is a piece of gymnasium equipment, a muscle-toning device like pulley exercisers or parallel bars. To Bobo it is an opponent, He fights it. Working on the light bag, he boxes, jabs, brings up books, slams across a right. The bag is the head of his next opponent Archie Moore this time. The big bag is Moore's body.

When Olson punches it he digs deep under the ribs, taking aim and firing with both hands. Against both bags he is constantly on the move, circling, sliding in and out. The bag work isn't just a I polishing-off exercise at the end of a sparring session. It is a full session in itself. Practiced Skills.

THEN Olson spars. It's Mr much the same. Where another boxer may Aa four rounds, he'll do eight at steadily increasing speed. He leaves his sparring partners winded, and his manager, Sid Flaherty, tries to hire main event fighters to work with 'him, boys who can do 10 rounds and know the proper moves. In training camp at Asbury Park.

it was remarked that he had been notably successful with a head-and-hand feint against Joey Maxim followed by a right to the jaw. "We practiced it for two Flaherty said, "with a big. strong kid. You've real-f ly got to fool Maxim to land a right hand. He knew Bobo as a hooker, principally, and 'when Bo feinted the hook and threw the right hand instead, it worked perfectly every time." As Olson finished sparring with a burst of speed, a fel-'.

low said, "It seems to me that being champion has given him confidence and he needs lcs time to warm up now, doesn't begin as cautiously as he used to." Fighters don't usually hit Maxim solidly until he tires in the late rounds. Olson had him down and nearly out in the second round. Moore needed 43 rounds to damage Maxim as much, "For Maxim," Flaherty said, ''Bobo warmed up four hard rounds in the dressing room. Usually I want him to save it all for the ring but this was a 10-rounrier and I was afraid Maxim might outscramble us if Bobo wasted three or four rounds getting hot." People, Pigeons and Horses SOMETIMES it takes more nerve to pull a fighter out of training than to push him on," Faherty said. "Before we boxed Jimmy Beau I laid Olson off a solid week and the New York newspaper mrn wrote that I was crazy.

Bobo went 10 fast rounds. He was ready early." "That has to be judgment cased on experience," a man said, "certainly you can't claim medical knowledge. You were a horse-trader." "I still am," Flaherty said, "and common horse-sense helps in training fighters the same as in training horses." "I ran believe that," a visitor said. "Hirsch Jacobs started with pigeons and went on to lead America's horse trainers in 11 of 12 consecutive years." "I've handled pigeons," Flaherty said. A Vote for Bobo.

ALL this adds up to a notion here that Olson will win Moore's lightheavy-weight championship in the Polo Grounds Wednesday night, whether Moore leaves a leg on the scales or not. Sentiment has been swinging toward the bigger man, but not here, where it is believed that Bobo is fit to go 15 rounds at a pace distasteful to old Archie. To be sure, Archie is accomplished at smothering a pacesetter and dictating the terms of a fight. Also, he can punch and he is quirk to finish off a man who is hurt. "Yes," Flaherty agreed, "Archie gives you plenty of rest when he's setting the pace.

He'll have to watch his liver, though. He likes to turn sidewise in close and when he does the opponent is usually shooting for his head. Bobo wil be firing at the liver." This is a good one for advanced speculation; it ought to he a good one to fight over afterwards. They are two of the best, Moore and Olson. They know what to do and how to do it.

The hot-shooting guard flipped in 28 points for the Rebels, who led at every quarter of the annua! charity game. Bob Ferry, St. Louis Cleveland, scored only eight points for the winners, but his rebounding was one of the features of his team's play. The Northerners trailed badly through the first three quarters, but put on a final drive in the last period which pulled them within one point of the Rebels. I Then they slipped back again in the closing minutes.

The All-America team selected by Chuck Taylor included Byrd as the outstanding player; Bailey Howell of Middeton, Dick Johnson of Austin, Joe Ruklick of Princeton, 111., and Joe Ryan of Philadelphia. Ryan led North scoring with 19 points, while Ruklick turned in 16. Ed Hickcy of St. Louis was one of the coaches in attendance. Fangio Race Winner.

Confused Play Benched Mays, Durocher Says MILWAUKEE, June 20 Harry Walker's first heave-ho by an umpire since The Hat became a major league manager followed what well could have been the decisive play if the Cardinal-Brooklyn game yesterday at Busch Stadium. Trailing by a 2-1 score in the home fourth, an inning before Carl Erskine wilted completely, the Redbirds had runners on first and third, one out and the count went to "3 and 2" on Pete Whisenant.

On the full-count Red Schorn-dienst broke for second. The I pitch appeared low and away 1 fnr Jul a fourth ball, but slow and deliberate Larry Goetz finally lifted his right arm to signal "Strike Schorndienst held up midway to draw a throw because Bill virdon. the runner on tmra. got a late Dream for the plate, the Dodgers easily foiled the run-and-hlt double steal and turned it into a double! play. Walker, coaching third, complained to Goetz at the end of the inning, not on the questionable pitch but on the delay in calling it, which the manager contended prevented him from sending Virdon quickly enough.

"After all," The Hat related afterward, wakhing the last few innings from the pressbox, "Bill couldn't go on Ball Four. Goetz is a great umpire, but when I told him to bear down, he bore down on me." Luis (7-2) Arroyo, Cardinal staff leader, will pitch tonight's 8 o'clock opening of a four-game series with the Philadelphia Phillies. Murry 4-4) Dickson is due for the Phillies. Manager Walker benched Pip Repulski and played Pete Whisenant in leftfield, but Rip got into the hall game and Bill Virdon went out after lefty Karl Spooner replaced righthander Carl Erskine. -The outfield contributed little to the home cause.

Perhaps coincidental, but probably not Floyd Wooldridge, you see, still wears a protective bandage on his right leg Junior Gilliam and Jackie Robinson bunted in the third and fourth innings. Both be- i came base hits and led to Brooklyn runs. Walker thought Wool-i dridge might have handled the second bunt. After Wooldridge had battled the Brooks by holding them to two runs on eight hits in four innings, safeties by Pee Wee Reese and Duke Snider routed him in the fifth. Before Brooks Lawrence could begin relief pitching that was generally effective, Roy Campanella singled for a run.

Virdon, over-eager, fumbled in right field for one error and when his throw to the plate was deflected into the third-base dugout, the merry-go-round broke down. Snider was in with the second run and waddling Campy automatically was permitted to score, too. Ken Boyer paced the Cardinals' 10-hit attack with two doubles and a single. After Wally Moon greeted Karl Spooner with a double in the Cards' three-run fourth, Manager Walt Alston came out of the dugout. "Yes." Alston acknowledged, "I almost took the kid out, he seemed to have so little then, but he quickly found his fast ball." I jjowJThey Stand NATIONAL LEAGUE W.

ri' W0 vt I i Willie Mays was benched yesterday by New York Giants' Managert Leo Durocher for the first time he started playing organized baseball when he was 16 years old. Durocher said he was benching the 24-year-old Mays because the outfielder was "confused." "He's not fielding well, he hasn't been hitting and he's been running the bases poorly," Durocher said. Mays was caught off first base in yesterday's Giants' loss to the Milwaukee Braves. He had only one single in the first two games of the three-game scries. Mays was mixed up in some horse play on the Giants' bus Saturday which resulted in a bad head cut fnr pitcher Marv Grissom, but Durocher gave no indication that it had anything to do with his being benched.
