May 28 The International Slri Federa- OT ANDREWS is at peace once more, and bumble golfers have taken the place of the fierce on the Old links in the soft sunshine. The trappings of an incomparable occasion are swiftly disappearing, the heavier celebrations are over, but there is an atmosphere of quiet elation about the place, the like of which I have not known whenever men meet there is a joyous light in their eyes. Even now. it is hard to believe that the deed has actually been done; it happened to suddenly. Never before has there been 6uch a continuing torrent of British success in one day against the United States.

The Ryder Cup victory at Lindrick was more overwhelming, but there the Americans collapsed utterly. On the last day there it was scarcely a contest whereas this was a magnificent match, splendidly won and lost In the cool tight of afterwards the results make remarkable reading. Nineteen matches of the lent presence was always at hand, has never had less to concern him regarding a team's play. Although at the outset this team did not appear as strong as some of its predecessors; apart from Bonallack it did not have a record in competition comparable to that of the American, but this has now been proved to be of less significance than one might think. Victory will hive a sustaining effect on the interest in the contest, and in amateur golf, in the United States as well as in Britain It cannot fail to encourage young golfers through-ut the land, and brine warmth to the hearts of the old.

It came at a fitting time for so many people for Bonallack. whose greatest ambition, far exceeding th- winning of championships for himself, was for Britain to hold the Walker Cup; for Joe Carr, whose agonies of disappointment LAWN TINNIS Instilled into everyone from the time they first came together until they firmly believed it. There was no fuss, no over-anxiety, and no pressurising, such traits are quite remote from Bonallack's character. And he had a splendidly balanced team with no awkward temperamental customers and no stars to be pampered, as has happened in the past, and for this the selection committee must take great credit. Bonallack, too, wisely did not allow his team to read newspapers on the days, but Humphreys made up for it yesterday by ordering "everything printed." Bonallack said yesterday, while opening sheaves of telegrams, that it was the hardest team he had ever captained, for the best of all reasons that everyone was placing so well from the start.

He and Sandy Sinclair, chairman of selectors, had no small task in deciding the battle orders Bonallack also agreed that technically this was the soundest team he has known. In all the newcomers, Carr. Humphreys, Mardonald. Margregor. and Stuart, there were no suspect swings: all was simple.

sound. and firm throughout the arc and so when the pressure came they did not have to concern themselves with method, only rhythm.

i 4 I'll mi Iliil'nii 111. I Without being troubled unduly, Jan Kodes (Czechoslovakia) and Margaret Court (Australia), the favourites and the holders, reached the third round of the French championships this afternoon. Kodes beat Jan-Pierre Courcoli the French No. 14 seed, 6-3. 6-0.

7-5, winning ten successive games from 4-3 in the first set to 2-0 in the third, but then drifting Into a kind of middle European slumber. Courcol then captured a exquenco of five games, but Kodes awoke in time to save a couple of set-points at 2-5 and then, concentrating again, won the next five games for the match. In spite of its sudden fluctuations, he seemed to be slightly bored by the whole affair. Mrs Court's ti 2. fi-1 victory over Kerry Melville, one of her principal challengers at home, was more slrjilukirward.

l.a:U year the Wimbledon chamuion suffered one of her rare deleats when she met the younger Australian in the semilinals of i he Auckland open. Then Miss Melville won 7-5, 3-0. 6-0. She was never allowed the slightest hope of repeating that viclory today. Mrs Court was majestically severe.

She made Miss Melville's court seem huge and, hitting hard, kept her under heavy pressure. Apart from these appearances by the holders, there was a curious pause in the excitement. The programme consisted mainly of doubles and most of these were of moderate quality and interest. It was hardly a day for packing in spectators. There were, however, two French victories in the singles France Jauffrct beat the powerful Milan Holccek, who ran Tony Roche close at Bournemouth, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3.

6-1, and Jcan-Baptiiste Chanfreau defeated Anatoly Volkov (Russia), 6-3, 6-4, 6 7 Jauffret and Chanfreau now meet, and the result of their encounter may have some significance in France's planning for their Davis Cup Group A semifinal against Spain in Barcelona next month. Neither seems likely to play In th singles at the moment, but both should be in the team.

Two British players remain Graham Stilwell. who meets Stan Smith, the powerful US No. 2 and the winner of the Tepsi Cola Masters tournament in Tokio last December, and Winnie Shaw, who plays Lesley Bowrey. the champion here in 1963 and 1965 and runner-up in 1962 and 1967. Miss Shaw beat her on grass in Australia an New Zealand during the winter.

Mrs Bowrey has lost a little of her speed and weighty accuracy of shots, but she has a splendid record in Paris. Certainly she has been one of the most formidable of postwar competitors here. When they meet on Sunday Miss Shaw will have to attack. This is a match which calls for positive lawn tennis from the British player.

On the last afternoon only one of seven games to go this distance was lost and from the fifteenth tee onwards, in the matches of those who succeeded, the home side won eight holes, the Americans only two.

To those accustomed to British failure in such situations of intense pressure, these facts may appear astonishing. There are several reasons for the transformation. In the first place, as I said yesterday, the team was surely led by Michael Bonallack. An unwavering faith in his team and their ability to win was Reaney took his place at right back because ol the injury which will keep Gray out of action for several weeks, but Leeds also moved forward whenever possible with poised skill. The pace was slower than during the washout on Wednesday, ivlng Leeds time to plan each efence and offence.

Also suited by the absence of frenetic running was Haller, whose mature talents se.ttled Juventus into a formidable combination whlca. has seen them return to the forefront of Italian football. Leeds were cool under the pressure however and equally calm in turning defensive operations into smooth attacks. It was not unusual to see as many Leeds players around Pilone's goal as there were Juventus defenders. But after the second of two rushes upficld by Charlton, Leeds were made to pay for their adventure.

Haller sent away Causio, who drove the ball hard into the fienalty area, where Bcttega's unge beat Reaney's and the ball streaked high inio the net. Clark was booked five minutes later and the crowd, who had been warned that the game would again have to be abandoned if those who had whistles did not cease their trilling, were further incensed by more strong tackles on their heroes. Although Jones and Clark tried to keep clear of any trouble, thev were not able to create many chances against the tightly knit defence. Jones might have scored just before half time when his first-time shot from close range was charged down by the diving Pilone. but Leeds were back on level terms four minutes after the interval.

Morini was slow to challenge Madeley, who seemingly presented no danger 25 yards out. Madeley, however, decided to let fly and although his shot was not powerful it was good enough to beat Pilone, the ball finding a home in the corner of the net. Now it was time for Juventus to hit back and Anastasi managed to escape attention briefly in frnt of goal- to Leeds' relief he could onlv balloon the ball over the crossbar. renewed pressure brought reward in the fifiv sixth minule however. Spmosi foraged resourcefully on the left and although Bcttcga could not cope with the bounce of the ball, it arrived at the lurking Capello.

who shot it past Sprake into the ton corner of the goal. Juventus had not taken long to make their supporters happy again, but Italian crowds can also show a great deal of dis-pleasere and AniSTasi as on the receiving end of derision when it became apparent that his greed was not on a par with his speed. Anastasi was replaced in the seventy-fourth minute when Don Revie took the opportunity to send on Bates for Jones. Juventus had appealed for a penalty as Bettega was brought down in the penalty area, but were refused and Leeds took the chance to attack quickly and profitably. Giles, operating far out on the left, centred, and Bates had the chance to shoot with only his second touch of the ball as It evaded the out-rushing Riloni.

Funno. standing on the line, could only help the ball alone, and Leeds were level again. They also had their penalty claims refused moments later, 'but thev could he well satisfied with their night's work. JUVSNTUS. Pnoni.

lion (FIS) today did what wis expected, passing rule which allow five months' hrakn time payment to coropertitoni, though these violate Bule 26 which the Olympic movement has recently ratified. But FES today did so quietir and deviously, their Swiss president, an IOC memher, Mare Hodler. and a small majority on the FIS council, the Inner cabinet of 17 outmanoeuvring their own eligibility committee. This dispute over tactics almost brought about a public repudiation bv some of the committee, who had spent months studying the problem, and whose final draft resolution was presented only in an emasculated version which contained no crrticism of the impracticability of Olympic rules as they apply to ski-ing. The heart of the problem, certainly as seen by the British member of the eligibility committee.

General Sir Roderick McLeod. and the British national federation, was the unworkabiltty of Olympic Rule 26 as it applied to iki racing, the need to say so. and the formulation of rules which could be honestly enforced. The changes as they were passed today paid lip service to Rule 26 and its limit of 60 days on broken-time payment to all sportsmen taking part in an Olympic Games. PIS has divided compensation for loss of income into two parts: (1) for a penud of "preparation" for the season nc exceeding 00 days, and (2) for participation in competitions.

As the compel'ition season is Ave months from December until the end of April, broken time will be payable far in excess of five months, which is certainly not what the IOC could have intended. So the ball goes back craftily, a dink just over the net, with the September meeting of the IOC either requiring to scramble it back or let it die. It is a posture without benefit for cither, but brought about finally because ol the intransigence of Mr Avery Hrundiiiie. the IOC president, lo ski i ni; ill particular, althouch oilier sports, particularly jumping, has many of the same diflicul requirements. Moaivtinie the Japanese organisers of the Winter Olympic (lames next year are less protesting i'OW, while Ihe FIS national representatives must return homo without clear advice for racers and fund raisers on whether the Games at Sapporo are on or not.

FIS thus forfeit the chance or a moral lead, though the protagonists of the devious approach say they arc achieving results WM Inn Olympic counsels while itnl ou-inp Mr Hninri.iCft nlivintl.s I excuT. to have the in thrown out.

Solution on Monday GUARDIAN CROSSWORD 12,946 laAVKNGKO Leeds United crushed their bogy of Italian defences it the Stadio Com un ale tonight, scoring their first goals in three visits to Italy. Their draw 2-2 was fair result, and one which Leeds can have no complaints about taking back to Elland Road for the second leg of the European Fairs Cup final. As away goals count double in this competition.

Leeds could be excused for thinking that they are home and dry to win the trophy for the second time. And as veil as scoring in Italy for the first time. Leeds continued their run of scoring in all nine of their away European ties over the past two years. The disappointed partisan crowd of 65.000 was nevertheless appreciative of Leeds's skill, giving them 3 round of applause as they lmed up to wave farewell. There can fee ito doubt that Iieeds deserved their ovation Their performance was one of courage, resourcefulness, and determination in a display of athletic malurity which was at times up to world standards.

They were twice behind but their grim and relentless dedication to the task of coiiiainin; Juventus's lively forward give them a from which tn launch lmoressive counter-attacks. Dnn fievie. the Leeds manager, confirmed his promise to go for goals when, althouch Madeley donned the No 11 shirt, against expectations he adopted a semi-attacking part. It was Madeley who restored equality after Betteg had given Juventus the lead, and although Capello put the Italians bark in front Fates, who substituted for Jones, scored the crucial goal after 76 minutes. Leeds had a magnificent commander in Bremner.

who urged his colleagues to shrug off the cares of being in arrears, and I.eenVs survival bv bis command mu'fleld Giles too a prominent pavt fijiM. but it would he imf.Tr to smelc out anj pliver for mention above The display was one of cool and cultured teamwork, with Cooper joining Lorimer in attack's on the flanks. Charlton. Reaney. and Hunter dominating the area In front of Sprake.

and Clark and Jones bearing the tremendous weight of trying to find a pass through the strong Italian defensive wall. For all Juventus's sktfl, they must now consider that their chance of winning on aggregate to a slim one. They have brilliance in midfield with Causio and Capello capable of finding space and time in which to work to send precise through passes to the speedy Bcttega and Anastasi. Tonight, however. Anastasi was controlled by the attentions of Charlton and Hunter, and was substituted by Novellini after his creed had spoiled chances for better placed team mates.

Hallcr, in fact, was Juventus's main inspiration of their attacks, belieing his years with agility and style. It did not rain and the Pitch seemed to be in good condition considering the soaking it had received rtr the past two days. Two minutes of silence preceded the kick-off in honour of Armando Picchi, Juventus's trainer who died vesterday. but the crowd erupted into a cacophony of cheers combined with firework explosions as Juvenutus quickly went into the attack.

Warwick profited from a nervous start by Mark Karrell, the Lancjshirc champion, who three double laults, last the lir.st inline, and spent the rest of the Mrunif: despcr.ntcK to brc.ik Warwick's ice uillinut -iii'iess His l)c-t chiini'o Ciine the si'i'itnil H'lme. when, with much sood touch volleing he foiled three deuces an advantage before Warwick reasserted himself. Karrell suffered (mm periods of tension during which he was inclined to overhit his service, to feed his volley back to his opponent, and to allow a good ball to go past in the belief that it would fall out of court. Otherwise in this match he was Just as good a player as the agile Warwick, Fan-ell's best tactics were to put the ball at the Inrushing Warwick's feet with heavy top spin. He did this beautifully In the second set, which he took at 7-5 after there had been three breaks of service.

Warwick seized his chance in the seventh game of the last set when Karrell began to hit his first service out again. Warwick attacked the second service fiercely and. although Farrell was later to save three match points in a fighting finish, the match was as good as won. In the women's singles semifinals Sally Holdsworth lost the first seven games to Miria Guzman (Ecuador), who had little more to do than keep the ball going back over the net and await mistakes. Then Miss Holds-worth decided that if she was going to make errors that they may as well be handsome ones and with some darins attacking play she took the second set 6-3.

That was too good to last, however, and she failed to take another game. BIO-STRATH TOURNAMIMT et 11 MIM'S SINCLf. semifinals: Warwick (Atiseralla) neat M. lorrell ilant eahlre). 6-4.
