Czech Tennis Stars
Seek U. S. Refuge
_ l
GST A AD Switzerland, </P) —
While security police kept a wary j
eye on Czechoslovakian diplo
mats, tennis stars Jaroslav Drobny
and Vladimir Cernik, who re
nounced the communist Czech
government, faced each other Sat
urday in the semifinals of the
Swiss championships.
The two gave strict orders to
the Swiss that they were not to be
contacted for any reason whatso
ever by members of the Czech
legation—and their wishes appar
ently were being carried out.
The actual tournament has been
pushed to the background while
players and officials speculate on
the results of the move. In joint
statements, Dronby a mainstay of
the Czech Davis Cup team and a
fine hockey player, and Cernik
denied they ever were commun
ists, and said they wished to take
refuge in the United States.
The statement came on the
heels of orders from Prague for
the pair to return home immedi
ately because two Germans and
a Spaniard were participating in
the tournament.
