"She has an uncanny ability to
get to almost any kind of shot."
says O'Connell. "She's aggres
sive and quick, gets incredible
depth whioh most kids her age
wouldn't even try to handle. Her
strongest shot is her forehand.
Speed does not bother her and
she really shoots the lines.
"Her backhand is made by
using her right hand as a guide
and appears to be two-handed,
yet soundly hits the ball. She's
uncommonly accurate on both
sides, does not baby the ball. Up
close she's cool, instinctively
seems to know where to put the
ball, is good and sharp overhead.
"Her service, although made
with a forehand grip, is well
placed and falls deep in the serv
ice ecourt. She's just beginning
to use the correct service grip
and I believe a left-hand . twist
will be much in her favor.
''Lorraine is fiercely compet

splendid skills because of her
flaming spirit. It helps to make
up- for her size, or lack of it.
