Sophomores Clive Kileff and Dave Benjamin are currently backing up the top two. Kileff, a Southern Rhodesian, was playing at Forest Hills before he entered college, and should be a strong number three man if he doesn't move up the ladder.

The most elite panel, New York State's "blue-ribbon" jury, is used almost exclusively to hear complex civil and criminal cases...
