praises team
United Press International
Linebackers June James and
Mark Petkovich, center Gene Chil
ton and fullback Terry Orr drew
praise from Coach Fred Akers Tues
day following the first contact work
out for No. 3-ranked Texas.
“It was a good day’s work,” Akers
said. “They are eager and they are
handling the heat in the full pad
work well. We are having fewer and
fewer lapses in concentration."
Several players, including wide re
ceiver Bill Roy Bryant and running
back Norman Nunn, missed Tues
day’s practice with muscle strains but
Akers said none of the injuries were
serious.
“I hate it that they are missing
such good fundamental work,” the
coach said. “We won’t be able to get
this kind of work later. But it is just
that time of the practice when the
strains start showing up.”
Akers also said reserve offensive
tackle Gilbert Esteves, a 295-
pounder from Brownsville, had
elected to drop out of school and re
turn home “for personal reasons.”
Meanwhile in Waco, Baylor start

NEW YORK — Aaron Krickstein,
the latest boy wonder of tennis, had
to resort to an old but dangerous tac
tic Tuesday to survive his opening
round match of the $2.5 million U.S.
Open.
Playing in the first two sets more
like the inexperienced 17-year-old
he is, Krickstein suddenly remem
bered that he also happens to be the
eighth seed and he recovered for a
3-6, 2-6, 7-6, 6-2, 4-0 victory over
Bruce Manson.
After dropping seven straight
games, the 28-year-old Manson re
tired in the fifth game of the final set
with heat cramps.
A year ago, when he was still an
amateur and ranked 489th in the
world, Krickstein went to a fifth set
tie-breaker to defeat Stefan Edberg
in the opening round, then fought
back from a two-set deficit to upset
Vitas Gerulaitis to reach the fourth
round.
“The good thing is that it is three
out of five sets and I have time to hit
and get some confidence back,” said
Krickstein, who lost three consec
utive matches coming into Flushing
Meadow. “The three out of five sets
favors the best player.”
Krickstein, ranked 13th in the
world, is the youngest man ever to
break into the top 20, and he was
given the honor of opening the
championship on Center Court.
“I found out I was playing the
first match Sunday night,” he said.
“I would rather have started some
where else, like on a field court. I
really didn’t want to be the first
match of the tournament.”

Olympic swimmei
has winning spirit
United Press International
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Swimmer
Rick Carey, winner of three Olympic
gold medals, Monday challenged
students at a high school to strive for
their best and to learn how good
winning feels for themselves.
Carey, with fellow swimmer Bruce
Hayes and their coach, Don Gam-
bril, spoke at a spirit assembly at
Rockhurst High School, which has
dominated the area’s high school
sports scene. Rockhurst, an all-boys
parochial school, won the 1983 Class
5A state championship in football.
When asked how it felt to win and
be the world’s best, Carey said it felt
great.
Another student ksked Carey
about the reports of him sulking af
ter winning the 200-meter back-
stroke.
“I pictured that race in my mind
for four years,” said Carey, who also
won the 100-meter backstroke and
the 400-meter medley relay. “I was
very proud to win. I was just disap
pointed in my personal perfor
mance.”
Gambril reminded the students
that the swimming events were not
as greatly affected by the Eastern-
bloc boycott as other events because
the Soviets have never been domi
nating in the water.
“Rick Carey is the greatest back-
stroker in the world,” Gambril said
when asked about the Soviets. “If the
Russians had shown up there’s abso
lutely no doubt in my mind that the
best backstroker would be Rick
Carey.”
Before taking questious, Cffi 1
