...Chris Clayton. The 93rd-ranked sophomore had fought through numerous long rallies to force a second set after dropping his first, 6-2, to Northwestern’s speedy Willy Lock. After a first set that featured much dizzying action, Clayton changed into a fresh white T-shirt. The road-team camouflage and dry shirt brought Clayton momentum that lasted him through the second set, which he took 6-4, and four games into the third set.

Delivering responses as crisp as his shirt--and displaying a confidence as miraculously uncreased after months at the center of a storm over alleged corruption--Tony Blair on Feb. 6 submitted to a very public interrogation. He has twice answered police questions--as a witness, not as a suspect--in Britain's so-called cash-for-honors affair, becoming the first serving Prime Minister to be grilled by the cops. But this was his biannual appearance before a top parliamentary committee, a set-piece occasion that always provides insights into government policy. This time, as the chief witness genially pointed...
