By ROBERT C. DOWSON Wimbledon, England (UPD -Top seeded Alex Olmedo, a Davis Cup hero in the United States but a controversial fig ure in the British press, led a contingent of 12 American players today into first-round matches in men's singles as the 73rd Wimbledon tennis championships got under way. The entire field of 128 was slated for action in men's sin gles with four matches on each of 16 courts of the All England Club cutting the field in half by nightfall. Olmedo, the native Peruvi an whose two singles tri umphs gave the United States the Davis Cup last December, remains a shaky favorite de spite his loss last week to Ramanthan Krishnan of In dia in the semi-final round of the London Grass Courts tournament. V But British newspapers joined in a salvo of criticism Sunday, saying that a victory by Olmedo here would be re garded as a triumph for Pern rather than for the United States. They protested Ol medo's participation on .the U.S. Davis' Cup team, which was permitted on the basis that he is a student at the University of Southern Cali fornia. "Peru's gift to the U.S." was the way the Daily. Mirror described Olmedo, and the Sunday Pictorial called Alex a "lend-lease" player. Jim Manning, columnist of the Sunday Dispatch said that Olmedo is the favorite here only because this year's field is weak. 'Seeded behind Olmedo are, in order,. Neale Fraser of Aus tralia No. 2, Nicola Pietran geli of Italy No. 3, Bobby Wilson of Britain No. 4, Barry Mackay of Dayton, Ohio, No. 5; Luis Ayala of Chile No. 6, Kurt jNielsen . of Denmark No. 7, and Roy Emerson of Australia No. 8.

In the Western Hemisphere monkey it is a "fifth hand" that securely holds a tree limb while the owner eats or swings in space. Monkeys of the Old World, do not have this prehensile tail; theirs is nothing more than a balancing organ The flat, powerful tail of the beaver acts as a rudder, or violently struck on the water, as an alarm signal when danger threatens. The squirrel uses his tail as a bal ancer; and the opossum as a "handrail" to which her strap hanging children can cling while mother travels. Tails can also be expres sive. They denote' joy, anger, fright and various other emo tions. The cat lashes her tail when she is angry. The dog wags his to denote joy, or holds it between his legs when frightened or hurt. The rattle snake shakes his rattles vio lently in a moment of anger or excitement, or" as a warn ing to the trespasser to be ware. Even the apparently worthless tail of a pig is a pretty good barometer of the creature's health. White Flag -. The deer family shows the characteristic "white flag" as a warning; probably every other deer within seeing dis tance sees this flashing alarm and seeks the nearest cover. Unlike the cow or horse, the deer's tail Nis not sufficiently long to be . of much help in driving insects from the ani mal's back. , Rats, mice, even' sheep, seem to have something "at tached to them, in the shape of a tail, that is of no appar ent use, as. their tails seem to be going along just for the ride. The porcupine uses his tail as a quiver with which to carry the sharp quills. The ' fox curls up in a ball and wraps his "brush" as a blanket to keep himself warm. The kangaroo sits on his tail; it would be more in keeping with things if he and the elephant should swap. Birds make many different uses of their tails; they act as stabilizers while the bird is in flight, or as a rudder, brakes when coming in for a landing, and as balancers while perching.' The wood pecker family uses theirs as tripods, or ag third legs, to U lJETJr TESES GBERT There are two great tastes in American whiskey. Some people prefer blends. Others like straight bourbon.

Watkins brace themselves on the ver tical trunk of a tree. Important Implement In most animals and birds the tail is an- important im plement of many uses, but not always of attractiveness; there are a few exceptions, such as the peacock and a few others whose tail is a thing of beauty, and a powerful attraction to the securing ft a mate. In the field of nature there are a great many more, many tails with strange and little understood functions, but all are very necessary to the way of life of their owners. Some unknown but would-be poet once paid tribute to the pos teriors of a few animals when he wrote: "The fox's tail is bushy. The opossum's tail is bare. The rabbit has no tail at all . It's just a bunch of hair." (Released by The Register And Tribune Syndicate, 1959) .
