Ashe, the No. 8 seed, beat Teimuraz Kakulia of the Soviet Union 6-1 in the first set and was tied at 4-4 in the second when they were ordered off the court. next four games and reach the last 32 of the men's singles. Later Borg talked about the incident Wednesday night which almost resulted in him being disqualified from the tournament. The young Swede, protesting against bad light, hit two balls wildly out of court and had to be persuaded by assistant referee Fred Hoyles to continue.

It isn't so long ago that pants suits for women, silly were banned from the clubhouse at Exhibition Park race track.

Now, at race tracks everywhere, female jockeys are commonplace. A couple weeks ago I went to see the soccer Whitecaps and was greeted in the Empire Stadium press box by a feminine type girl who announced that she was Jeannie and she was taking over the p.r. job. She has much better legs than her predecessor, Larry, but she may have to have her vocabulary dry cleaned before the season's over. Actually, the language has improved since Jeannie took over, and she hasn't suggested we should have flowers painted on the spittoons.

WORLD CUP SOCCER Beware of Brazil! liiiiiiii ilpillliil iiiliiiiiii LONDON Australians Lesley Hunt and Ross Case, both on the brink of giant-killing feats at the start of play, were crushed by the mature temperament of teen-age 'superstars Chris Evert. and Bjorn Borg on another rain-ravaged afternoon at Wimbledon i championships Thursday.

Miss Evert, 19, of the U.S., took just seven minutes to mop up her centre court classic against Miss Hunt, winning 8-6, 5-7, 11-9. Borg, down 4-1 in the fourth set against Case, lost only one more game as he swept to victory, 3-6, 6-1, 8-6, 7-5. Second-seeded Miss Evert, who was 9-9 in the third set when the match was suspended Wednesday night after 156 memorable minutes, allowed Miss Hunt just three points as she moved forward to the third round and kept alive her hopes of adding Wimbledon to her Italian and French titles. "It was the closest match I've ever played," Evert said. "But I don't think my tennis was great.

"I don't think I chocked that much, but I got a little shaky yesterday during the third set." Miss Hunt, a blonde and vi-v a i 24-year-old from Perth, said of Wednesday's play: "I think it rested a lot on luck. Chris hit two very good shots and she didn't miss any. All I can remember is two balls coming to my backhand so deep I couldn't hit them." Shortly after the match finished, rain started to fall and the cliff-hanging men's singles match on Court 2 between fifth-seeded Borg and Case was interrupted for a second time with the 17-year-old Swede still behind 5-3 in the fourth set. However, an hour later the weather eased just long enough for Borg to reel off the mmmmm Bjorn Borg plays a backhand during second-round victory over Australian Ross Case at Wimbledon.

West Germany and Poland meets Yugoslav- FRANKFURT Players on The Netherlands' soccer team, now rated the favorite to win the World Cup, modestly shrugged off their chances Thursday and said: "Don't underestimate Brazil." The Netherlands, led by the great Johann Cruyff, scored an impressive 4-0 victory over Argentina at the start of the second round Wednesday, and 40,000 jubilant Dutch fans went home cheering for "the next world champions." But the Dutch players, who have to meet defending champion Brazil in a vital game at Dortmund next Wednesday, were not so certain. Fullback Wim Suurbier, said: "We haven't really been tested as a defence yet. It is hard to tell what will happen when we are put under pressure." Johnny Rep, who has scored four goals in the tournament, said: "We are certainly not going to underrate Brazil. They have not scored many goals, but they have not conceded a single one. They have a waterproof defence." Dutch coach Rinus Michels admitted he didn't want this team to be the favorite.

"No coach wants that," he said. "I would rather we were the underdogs." Holland and Brazil were the major talking points Thursday as the eight surviving teams looked to Wednesday's opening matches in the second round of the competition and planned for the next stage of the battle on Sunday. Manager Mario Zagalo of Brazil, full of confidence after his club's 1-0 victory over East Germany, said: "We have reached the condition now to Associated Press Just recently the Astrodomain Corp. of Houston announced a $150,000 competition for women athletes, patterned after television's Superstar show for -the men. I'm not sure I'm ready for Billie Jean King in a bicycle race, but good luck to them.

Ah, Billie Jean King. She is, of course, the feminists heroine after her putdown, last fall, of the supreme male chauvinist pig of them all, Bobby (Oink) Riggs. Now Ms. King has cashed in on her resultant fame by publishing, with her husband Larry, a women's sports magazine called, originally enough, Women Sports. For $1 you can read about a woman marathon runner, women's basketball, a woman racing driver, a woman's guide to poker, how a woman in New York fell in love with the Miami Dolphins, a woman's guide to backpacking, a woman's guide to various balls used in various games, women's surfing, and what a woman writer thinks of men writers at the Super Bowl.

The magazine rates Miami quarterback Bob Gnese as because he permitted himself to be slapped on the rump by a bold female in a hair spray commercial. Another Dolphin, Larry Csonka, is marked down as "cool" because he finds practices boring, naps before a game, and says to be a great running back one must be relentless, look good and "screw everything else."

The pack of 50 riders finished together with Blouin sprinting ahead in the final mile to cross the finish line one second ahead of the B.C. riders In 2:25:22.0. Brian Keast and Max Grace of B.C. finished second and third respectively with Doug Gormican in sixth spot. There has been very little to choose between the top 30 riders so far due to the flat terrain.

Talking about the tour's future, Carol was quoted: "We're just blossoming and getting the fans on our side.

They didn't even know we existed for a while but it's beginning to look just great for us. "We're making a real concentrated effort now. We just have to have our younger players like Laura Baugh and Pat Bradley take off like wildfire and we'll do just fine because the people want to see the younger players beat us older girls. You do need that one important combination a good lookin' woman who can really play the game great." You see, we just can't win. While the more dedicated women libbers complain that we regard them as sex objects, others are not averse to pushing "a good lookin' woman" to further their cause.

Like that Laura Baugh, mentioned above. She has been described as "all curves and dimples and golden tan and long blonde hair framing an Ultra Brite smile." Sounds delicious. And for the benefit of you male chauvinists who are ready to give in gracefully, the Canadian Ladies Golf Classic, being played in Quebec, will be on the CBC on Saturday and Sunday.

Then, protected by a phalanx of uniformed British Bobbies, he survived the second, and in many ways more unnerving, challenge of pushing past hundreds of screeching schoolgirls trying to photograph, kiss or just touch him. Despite all the attention lavished on him, Borg says he spends most of his spare time reading Walt Disney comics. "I don't have much time for girls while I'm still in the tournamen he said. "Maybe later." Borg, who said he was worn down by nearly a year's nonstop play that won him the French and Italian open titles as well as the hearts of countless lasses, said he was wishing for more rain so he could rest for a day.

"I want to get away alone, or maybe with my manager," he said. "I think I have lots of fun with all the girls cheering for me, but they make it difficult for my opponent to concentrate and I feel sorry for him."
