Heald in the tournament, and I think he can do It again this year." North Carolina has some other strong contenders for in dividual championships. Bob Davis, senior captain from Washington, D.C., was runner up to Cooper at No. 2 last year and No. 3 champion the year before. Senior Bill Trott, a Raleigh native, will press for top honors at No. 4, and from Florida and Fred Raw! ference and that was to un defeated Cooper, the ACC No. 2 champion.

Meanwhile, Duke, which played host to the Atlantic Coast Conference tennis tournament in 1967, expects to play better at the 1968 one this weekend alt Collete Park. "We're stronger this spring but so have been all the other teams in the con ference," Bob Cox, the Blue Devil coach, says. "South Carolina, North Carolina, Oemson and Maryland appear to be the top teams but we hope to pull some surprises, too." The Blue Devils are 10-8 on the season their most wins since 1960 but 24 Sn the conference. Duke placed fifth with 35 points in he 1967 matches in front of Maryland, Virginia land itate.
