Tired Watching. This year, seeded No. 4, McKinley did not even lose a set. He got unexpected help from Germany's Wilhelm Bungert, who upset Australia's No. 1 -seeded Roy Emerson in a mara thon quarterfinal. McKinley routed Bungert, 6-2, 6-4, 8-6.

Will you do me the honor of working with me . . .?' 'Yes, Achala,' Mara promised." Heart Specialist Paul Dudley White replaced the myth of youth with some hard facts. Middle age begins at 20 and lasts until 80, he announced somberly in Boston. The dangerous years of this 60-year spread are not the last 20 but the first...
