ADELAIDE, Austrlia (AP)-Vic Seixas said Tuesday he is using his "Wimbledon plan" in prepar- ing for the Davis Cup challenge round and if it works out as ex- pected. he may surprise by heat- ing lboth Lew lload and Ken Rose- wall.

"I feel I am pacing myself just right go that i can reach my peak the middle of next week." said the 33-year-old Philadelphlan. who carries the United States' faint hopes of rccapturlng the interna- tional tennis trophy from Aus- trails.

The challenge round is sched- uled for Dec. 26-28. The U.S. cause is regarded as hopeless-'---' not by Seixas.

"in elting ready for Wimble- don last summrr I skipped all Eu- ropean tournaments except Man- chcster." Vic said. ”Then I de- cided to work myself Into a fine physical and mental edge for the tournament. I think I did. as the results show.

the two teams-the Londo Roc- kets and the Wiesbaden F yers- and tried to connect the lessons In theory with what was happen- ing in practice.

The difficulty was that there ap- peared to be two schools of thought about how to explain Am- erican football. One school tried to explain it by comparing it to English Rugby football; the other school, which thinks that too much emphasis is put on the

fcrred to compare it with chcss. This made for a little confusion. When we arrived, the Rocket: who had been tipped to lose 32 points to 7 points by Jim thc Anglnphile and eventually won by exactly that score ("I told you it was a damned I. " t ” game." Jim explained aftcrwardsl. were just about to try a full spate on the Flyers, and amazingly it came off when a clever combination brought off a quick touchdown which is worth six points. The 'Flyers never seemed to recover lprnpcrly from this corly tlcfcat end even their bubbling cheer- leaders occasionally found it hard wing to give an impression of overwhelming confidence.

Very roughly the ball has to be taken up to the opponent send zone which is shaped like a "grid- iron." but play is not continuous as in Rugby and stops when any part of the ball-cm-rlcr's body except hls hsnds.and feet touch the ground or he goes out of bounds. The Rockets. for example. would start some agres.-lvc work with their bishops and castles and the crowd would get really excited. and then everything would suddenly come to an abrupt halt.
