Miss Goolagong, a 20-year-old Australian, won the title last year, In her first attempt. Mrs.

King, 28, has won three straight times-thc first in 1966. In the semifinal between Nastase the Romanian won the first three games, Orantes quickly levelled at 3-3, then Nastase reeled off another trio to take the first set at 6-3. Then they cut at each other with rapier-like ground strokes, and the match was really won because Nastase had just that much more experience. The Romanian, long one of the world's best players on hard courts, has been playing a lot on wood recently. This has given him the extra speed necessary on grass.

Although the match was short, it was packed with intelligent anticipation and Btrokes oiled to perfection. Nastase was unbeatable, but Orantes never allowed himself to be cut to pieces by the Ro manian's lightning forays to the net.

Army and Lt. Hie Nastase of the Romanian Army won their men's (Ingles semifinal match es at Wimbledon Thursday and meet for the tennis championship Saturday. Smith, the No. 1 seed from Pasadena, overcame Jan Kodes of Czechoslovakia 3-6, 6-4, 6-1, 7-5 In a lackluster match that lasted 2 hours, 10 minutes. Nastase, the first Romanian ever to reach a singles final here, beat Manuel Orantes of Spain 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 In a thrustand-parry battle that lasted just over an hour and with every minute full of thrills.

It will be Smith's second Straight Wimbledon final. He lost to John Newcombe of Australia last year. Smith started off badly in the semifinal, with Kodes serving well and reeling off the first three games. He never recovered from that setback in the first set, and it took him until the eighth game of the second set to regain some of his con fidence, Until then, his service main weapon in his armory was not so destructive as usual and his backhand let him down, partial larly on the volley. Kodes, who never before has gone further than the second round in six starts here, didn't have the ex perience to capitalize on Smith's weaknesses, however, and midway through the second set the American took com mand.

He had just dropped his service to Kodes to trail 3-4, but produced a pair of crisp volleys to break Kodes to pull up to 4-4, then go ahead 5-4 on his own service. Kodes, upset by a disputed line call, doublefaulted and Smith streaked in with a flashing forehand return to get another break and the set at 6-4. In the third set, Smith broke on the second game and reeled off the set at 6-1 in just 18 minutes. But he still hadn't stamped his authority on the match. With the score at 5-5 on Kodes' service, Smith passed the Czech with a lightning backhand and followed this with the gentlest of forehands to go 6-5 with his own service to A deep drive followed by a smash from Kodes' despairing lob, followed by two booming serves, brought Smith to match point.

He promptly double faulted, but the lapse was me-mentary. His next service was another good one which Kodes couldn't collect. Both agreed later that the match was over midway through the second set. "Up to then he had a bit of an edge, but then I started to roll," said Smith, who conceded that he "wasn't moving too well and was a little bit off balance not nervous but a little tight." mm REPAin 3- Day Service on Watch Repairs Full 1 Year Guarantee (except lor water damage) Randy Owens Hurls Post 4 Pass Cayce CAYCE, S.

Orangeburg Post 4 evened its record to 5-5 as Randy Owens pitched a two-hit 8-1 victory over Cayce Thursday night. Coach Claude Myers said, "Randy pitched good ball tonight.

Mike Bishop had a pair of singles, and Lynn Ryan, Ricky Heckle and Perry Bender had one single each.

"I came to work this morning to remind Bill he had promised last night to be the old New York Giants' Rigney and that he would lay down the law to a few people," Quilici said. "Neither of us suspected what was going to happen today. Bill talked to Calvin and then I was called to the office and given the job.

I talked to Rig afterwards briefly and he was dejected and a bit stunned. But, it's happened to him before," Quilici said. "I plan on talking to him soon. I've got a lot of respect for him." Griffith said he also planned to talk to Rigney about his future. "I want to find out what he wants to do," Griffith said.

He indicated he would like to retain him in the Twins organization, but said scouting is the only thing open this year. Quilici said it's unfortunate that the Twins have had several injuries, but, "we've got the people to win. We proved it at the start of the season and we now have a chance to show it wasn't a fluke." Three-time American League batting champion Tony Oliva played only 10 games this year before undergoing knee surgery Wednesday, the second time he went to the operating table since September after wrapping up the 1971 batting title. Lefthander Jim Kaat, off to the best start of his 14-year career with a 10-2 record, may be lost for the season with a broken thumb. Outfielder Steve Braun and rookie catcher Glen Borgmann are now sidelined with injuries and shortstop Danny Thompson also missed several games.

Quilici said he would be a no-nonsense manager and that he expects his players to hustle. "I always tried to play at 110 per cent," Quilici said. "That's the way my dad taught me." And, he expects the same type of production from the Twins. "That's what a ballplayer gets paid for. If he doesn't produce, there are a lot of kids who will." Jackson Wins Jackson Enterprises defeated Wertz 6-2 Thursday night and went one game up in the standings of Mizzell Softball.

Jim Broad hurled for the win. Broad also led his team at bat, along with Burt Martin and J. T.Champy, all of whom had doubles, and Jimmy Hartzog who hit 2-2. Losing pitcher Jim Tom Oliver connected for a long home run. Mackie Sandifer hit 2-4 for Wertz.

Friday's game will match Applied Engineering and Ritter's All Stars.

ATLANTA (AP) Dusty Baker's two-run home run highlighted a four-run third inning Thursday night and powered the Atlanta Braves to a 4-3 National League baseball victory over the Chicago Cubs. The third inning rally came after two were out when Ralph Garr singled home Marty Perez and then scored as Baker tagged his fourth homer of the year over the center field fence. Hank Aaron drew a walk arid Darrell Evans belted a run-scoring double to left center off starter Bill Hands, 6-6.
