A single berth on the Cana- dian Davis Cup Team‘.’ The centre court at Wimbledon? A win over some of the top-seeded players anywhere in some up- coming Rothman's Open in Toâ€" ronto'.’ Worthy goals all. But to Lee Myers. the slender and graceful young tennis prodigy from Maple. her most important DI'Oject right now is talking her parents. Bill and Jan Myers. into getting her a pair of con- tact lenses. 1 Lee plays with her glasses on. and besides somewhat hinder- ing her movement and peripher- eral vision, they also, although she didn't say so, help to cover a pretty face. They don‘t. however. hide a determined chin that asserts it- self whenever she considers her possibilities along the tennis trail. the trail she first laid out when she started trouucing her fellow 10-year-olds at Southamp- ton on Lake Huron. where the famin spends its summers. and showed anyone who cared to watch that she was definitely a corner in the totiin and tight little world of tennis. where love Is just part of the game‘s jargon and not something you dispense to your opponents along the way. SPOlLED SUMMER After spoiling the summer for her fellow tennis hopefuls in Southampton. she looked for other tennis worlds to conquer and found them in Gait. where she won the Gait and District Tennis Tournament for 12 to 14 year-olds. three years in a row. Now she's engaged once again in the Georgian Bay High School Championships. where she and sister Lynn. 16. dispos- ed of two other sisters. Merry and Judy McLean of 'l‘hornhill Secondary School in a close match played on a cool but sunny afternoon last week in Richmond Hill. to reach the Southern Georgian Bay Play- offs. Lee. who says her best shot is her backhand. is also develop- ing a hard and accurate service. as well as a deadly. sling-shot return style at the net. where she stands in a semi-crouch. giv- ing her racket a slow turn every now and then as she awaits the ball. Lynn. on the other hand. stands almost upright at the net spinning her racket furioust as she Sets set for the shot. When it comes and she has to move for it. she brings her arm well back in textbook style before slamming the ball across the net in a well-placed return. Both players are intense. but L.Vnn's intensity. surprisinzlfi'. is the more obvious. worrying a nail on her finger while getting set to receive. spinning her rac- ket or seeking the cause for the break in her concentration when she misses a s h of and ‘gained a free .flexes.

And. just as it is in tennis when they play singles. the younger Lee wins more often than she loses. Lee. who is Ontario and ranked third in sixth in Canada. membership in Toronto Tennis Club for her of- forts. When not playing in a tournament somewhere. she is practising”. or playing \olley- ball. or badminton. a game in which she won the city champ- ionship a year ago. But champion or no. she finds badminton mostly a game of re- while tennis demands. a lot of strength as well and she: exercises constantly with that‘ in mind. The next three or four years will be important to her career. she feels, so it has been fortunate for her that she was one of the handful of prom- ising juniors selected by the Ontario Lawn Tennis Associa- tion to participate in their winâ€" ter program at York Rackets Club. and will be able to polish up her game the singles game she prefers 7â€" in the long months ahead. even if it means going between 6 and 8 am. the time allotted free by the club for that purpose. Lee's mother. a former phys- ical education teacher. got both girls started in tennis. and her father Bill. a physical educa- tion teacher at Earl Haig Col- legiate in Toronto. and a oneâ€" time Toronto Argonaut quarter- back â€" in the days when they were winning ~â€" kept up their instruction in the game. GOOLAGONG GOOD Lee also found her coach at Southampton. Bruce James. a transplanted Ailstralian. a big help to her, Unfortunately. he decided to go back Down Under. and Lee‘s hoping now that Ontario tennis teams will be able to get sortie coaches very soon. in the meantime she watches another Australian. the young ‘ynamic Yvonne Goolagonc. a t‘ rmer Wimbledon champ. whom lie is impressed with and oc- casionally attempts to emulate. Goolagong was just 19 when she first arrived on the internaâ€" tional tennis scene and went on to subsequent triumphs. Lee is just 14. so she still has a few years to go. Can she make it'.‘ She has aspirations. determination. talent and the athletic background of both her mother and father in- spire her. And that a background that is not buried and forgotten. As Jan Myers says of her hus- band when recounting his foot- ball exploits: “If he had some- body else‘s ankles he‘d still be playing." So far as Lee is concerned. however. she‘d just as soon stand on her own two feet. And if they aren‘t always up to it. there's always sister Lynn to help her out. to IS Hill.
