21st match (or the America's Cup a best-of-seven scries will be one of the closest most exciting in the 119-year history of the series There are some who say no challenger will ever be able to overcome the built-in American advantage of sailing on home waters or match the American level of sophistication in producing million dollar racing machines for the defense of the cup The Australians failed In their first challenge in 1962 and their second one in 1967 But the latest effort organized and mounted by Sydney newspaper magnate Sir Frank Packer is conceded to be far stronger than the others Certainly the Australians are better equipped than any challenger has ever been to achieve im possible dream There appears to be little to choose between the challenger designed by 48-year-old Sydney naval architect Alan Payne and the defender designed by Olin Stephens II for the 1967 cup defense and redesigned by 30-yearold Britton Chance Jr for this year's campaign Both the Australian skipper Jim Hardy a 37-year-old winemaker from Adelaide and the American skipper Bill Ficker a 42-year-old architect from Newport Beach Calif have won world championships in smaller classes Both are excellent helmsmen tacticians strategists and leaders who have consistently demanded and received 100 per cent efforts from their crew Their supporting casts are of the highest calibre Ficker recently

Stanford team and then signed a bonus contract with the St Louis Browns of the American League for three seasons He also played professional football in the early days when he and Red Grange were the
