"The BYU match proved one thing," continued James, "If we're to win the WAC title this year, it will be done largely on the strength of the teams at the top of our lineup, both singles and doubles. The pressure's really on us to win matches up above." "Idaho Stat- - will be the favored team," said Carlston, of the track meet, "because they seem to have the most potential first place finishers in a three-wa- y field like this."

BYU InIn the early-Apr- il vitational, the only time Utah and Utah State have met this season, the Utes finished second to BYU scoring 49 points, Utah State was third with 28 and one third points. All these scores point to one thing: a most interesting team race in Ute Stadium Saturday, Utah should have as full a complement of athletes for this meet as is possible in face of injuries, unlike the competition last week at Boulder.

(!TI)-3mil- ing Hubert Green and dour Gardner Dickinson have nothing in common except the 68s they shot in the first round of the $165,000 MONY Tournament of Champions. Green, 25, says he enjoys playing golf for a living. Dickinson, 44, approaches the game carefully like a porcupine initiating a romance. This is the first time Green has made it to his exclusive tournament while Dickinson, a leather-face- d e disciple of the great Ben Hogan, is here for the sixth time, Green shot his 68 with nines of 4 Thursday while Dickin- son was inconsistent but just as good with Defending champion Jack Nicklaus, who looked like he was playing under wraps, shot for a tie for third.

"I don't know, I wasn't in it," he laughed. Then after considerable thought, he said he did get in the rough twice on the second and the ninth holes. "A 70 is not a bad round to start with," he said. "I have no complaints." Green, the longest shot in the field at 30-had no complaints either. "I'm just happy to be here," he said. Palmer could smile after his 74 but he said ruefully, "I did about everything out there."
