Wimbledon Politics Touch Tennis Court Again
At Wimbledon, politics intruded as Russia’s Alex Metreveli withdrew from the men’s singles after refusing to meet South Africa’s Abe Segal over apartheid. Istvan Gulyas pulled out of the doubles with Segal, and Suzi Kormoczy of Hungary faced a possible first round withdrawal with Christiane Mercelis. Seeded players mostly advanced, including Jan Lehane and Norma Baylon, though McKinley and Susman faced tough, lengthy matches.

Exhaust fumes on the rear of faster Pontiacs sealed second to Fireball Roberts in the Daytona 500. Plymouth shows on paper speed advantage for Daytona with fast February qualifying and the two 100 mile races. Ford engines push power and acceleration but tire wear and Indy-focused development dominate season chatter. Drivers warn that tire reliability may decide major tracks and the Firecracker race could hinge on tire performance.
