(Hobert, Tasmania) and David Johnson (Lord's) came through their first round matches in the Cutty Sark open singles at Queen's Club yester day. This completed the last eight, in which Howard Angus, the Open and amateur cham pion, is now the only surviving amateur. This afternon Toates will play David CuM, also a Lord's professional and this morning Norwood Cripps (Queen's Club), the holder, meets Chris Ennis, formerly of Manchester and now of Leam ington. Toates. who used to be assistant professional at Cambridge University before going to Tasmania seven years ago, was in splendid form when beating a qualifier, Alan Lovell, the Oxford University captain, 6-4, 6-2, 6-2.

Considering that Tcates must get little time for competitive play, he is a remarkably good match player. He went all out for the winning openings, and actually found the winning gallery eight times, including three consecutive shots in the second game of the second set. He also produced a high giraffe service, varied by an underhand twist delivery that Lovell found difficult to handle. The first set, wihich Toates won 6-4, was an excellent one. Then, at 3-2 in the second set, Toates took the following game afler Lovell had held three points for 3-3.

Toates was now getting such a splendid length to the corners that Lovell won only one more Soint in the set. He struggled to old his own in the third set, but Toates was usually able to get back to the service side quickly and was not to be stopped. Johnson defeated Paul Danby, from Hayling Island, another amateur who had qualified, by 6-1, 6-4, 6-2. Johnson was very quick and the more accurate but the match lacked weight.

Kilmarnock is worth a cross. So a deal of good luck will be needed, as there are only 22 English League games to make a base for more adventurous selection. In the Cup, however, Exeter City v. Newport County seems to be an outstanding" prospect. TREBLE CHANCE Orome teams).

SPORT IN BRIEF Athletes to take steroids test Athletes will be tested for the illegal use of anabolic steroids at all events staged under European Athletic Association ausnices. bezinnine with the European indoor championships next March. Mr Arthur Gold, secretary of the British Amateur Athletic Board, whose proposal was passed by the BAA council in Zagreb, said yesterday: "Anyone with sympathy for young people in sport will recognise this as a great development." The tests will be carried out at all the European Cup matches, including the men's semifinal, for which Britain will be the hosts, at i Crystal Palace to Russia Sweden. Poland, and several other countries, next July the European decathlon and pentathlon cup events, and any other EAA meeting.

Mr Gold admitted that tests will not completely stamp out steroid use. They would not stop athletes using steroids for a time to ouiia up tneir Body, and discontinue them before a particular event. He said the testing will be well established in Europe by tne la uiympic (James, Montreal. "We do not know if other continents will he as dm. gent and effective as Europe.

It may well be that when we get to Montreal European athletes will be at a disadvantage because otner continents wm not nave had these tests. But we have a duty to our athletes." BADMINTON. From the new year the Badminton Association of England will substantially relax the regulations covering amateur status.
