SPORTS Bedard, Louise Brown advance to semi-finals Rams can hardly wait for game with Hilltops JV" Bob Puddicombe of Vancouver who disposed of Terry Fahlen-bock and Ken Sinclair of lo-ronto 6-1, 6-0. In women's doubles, the top-seeded pair of Miss Martin and Jane O'Hara of Toronto whipped Claire Sutton of Montreal and Joanne Bergstrom of Vancouver 6-3, 6-1; second-seeded Miss Berner and Michelle Carey of Vancouver eliminated the Toronto pair of Rose-marie Jull and Evelyn Hustwit 6-3, 6-3 while third-seeded Susan Eager and Benita Senn of Toronto dropped Blanche Baden-horst and Jean Wesley-James of Hamilton 6-2, 9-7. Wimbledon semi-finalist this year.

They will play each other Saturday while Mrs, Brown tangles with Miss Martin. In doubles pluy, Belkin and John Sharpe of Toronto beat Burwash and Lawrie Strong, also of Toronto, 6-4, 6-4 In a bat-tie involving the four members of Canada's Davis Cup team. In other doubles play, the second-seeded pairing of Keith Carpenter and Harry Fauquier of Toronto beat Don Axtell of Saskatoon and Ron Sloan of Toronto 6-3, 6-1 to advance to Saturday's semi-finals. They will meet Bedard and By JIM MATIIESON minus nine clays and counting. Hcgina Rams junior football team can hardly wait, and 28 players who were around last year are licking their chops.

The reason is simplo enough. Saskatoon Hilltops will put in an appearance, their first since the ill-fated playoff series of a year ago, next Saturday night at Taylor Field. Hilltops have been the nemesis of Gord Currie's Rams for two years now, and just when the green and whites were primed and ready for national exposure. Rams have been powerhouses in the Manitoba-Saskatchewan football league for the past three years, but "fops, twice, and Weston Wildcats have been spoilers. Currie still employs 43 players, and 17 souls will see he best junior team in tunadaRams violently but it is a little late to change last year's outcome the flesh.

Word from the north has Hilltops a little on the lacklustre side, but every year, before the first game is whistled in, people begin to wonder about the Saskatoon dynasty. It is like the weather, unfortunately it is there every day. Rams have lost Wayne Borys, who played his best games at offensive tackle last Bill Deal has left a hole at tackle, Ron Nicholson, big tackle Alex Nicholson's sibling, won't patrol the end position and two boys have opted for school books instead of shoulder pads, bob McKenzio and Arnie Tiefenbach are home at night studying school work instead of plays. Of tho 17 first year men, four or five must be considered starters. Gerry Orban, who played his ball, college-style at Simon Fraser U.

last year, is sure to start at guard. Larry Kratt will probably bo at middle linebacker, unless Tony Husli makes a brilliant recovery from an inoperable arm injury, and Dave Sawa may start at defensive half. Blake Walker, in his first year out of high school ball at Martin Collegiate, could start on offenso or defense at tackle. Bryan Dimen will surely make the team, but his preferred position is a little crowded at present. Mike Hill and Barry Polowick are putting the clamps on the quar-terbacking position, And an outsider isn't necessarily welcome.

Currie and assistants Alf Relkcy and Doug Killoh can see it all now. Rams wallop-ing Hilltops and spoiling Bob Crawford's debut into the coaching ranks. Last year in the first meeting of the enemy powers, Rams ran roughshod over the northern visitor. But mysteriously, they had a letdown in the most important staKc of tho season, when a win would have given them first place. Rams still have to be convinced they were not the bettor team.

It would be sour grapes to continually harp on it, but things went from bad to worse for Currie's charges in a sudden wave of red flags in Saskatoon. Translated it means penalties killed them. Some may have been unjust. Next Saturday, Rams can put things right. Twenty-eight boys have lived for the chance for six months.

They won't let it get away from them. TORONTO (CP) Bob Bedard, who Insists he's retired from tournament tennis, and Louise Brown, who should be if she showed her age, advanced to semi-final play Thursday in the Canadian closed tennis championships Bedard, a 38-year-old Lennox-villc, schoolteacher who said he entered only because it fell during his holidays, scored a straight-set (i-4, (1-0 victory over it ii lawyer Brian Flood.

All semi-finalists qualify for next week's $23,000 Canadian Open which features a star-studded international field.
