Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: A two-hander: Eddie Dibbs displays form that led him to $31,765 payday at Canadian Open tennis championship yesterday at York University. Dibbs scored a 5-7, 6-4, 6-1 triumph over young Argentine Jose Luis Clerc. Dibbs later said that while he's only 26, he feels old playing against likes of 20-year-old Clerc these days.
