The rock legend apparently had to wait in line upon arrival in Israel on Monday, just like any other tourist. Dylan’s passport was handed to the head passport officer at Ben Gurien Airport.

He should stand in line like everyone else,” the officer was quoted as saying. The publicity-shy Dylan, who was met on the tarmac with a special car that brought him to the terminal, took his place in line, the officials said. Dylan could not be reached for comment and his publicity agent in '93 MITSUBISHI Israel said she knew nothing of the incident.

The only top-ranked player missing was Sergi Bruguera, who jumped to No. 5 after winning the French Open earlier this month but is skipping Wimbledon be­ cause of a dislike for grass. Among the women, defending champion Graf was seeded No. 1 based on her world ranking. Graf won the French Open to reclaim the No. 1 ranking from Monica Seles, who is sidelined indefinitely after being stabbed during a tour­ nament in Germany on April 30. Arantxa Sanchez Vicario is ranked No. 3 behind Seles, but she was bypassed for the No. 2 seeding in favor of. nine-time champion Navratilova. Last week, Navratilova said she deserved the No. 2 spot because she was a better grass-court player than the Spaniard and should not be placed in the same half of the draw with Graf. “I ’m thrilled,” Navratilova said when notified of the seedings Monday. “I don’t think I really influenced the decision, but it makes sense for me to be up­ graded. There are only two former champions in the tournament and it’s right they should be in oppo­ site halves of the draw.” “Her past record on grass speaks for itself,” Mills said. “Her worst performance here over the years has been losing in the quarterfinals (to JenniferCapriatiin 1991). The committee thought thatfor agrass- court tournament she should be marginally favored over Sanchez Vicario." Sanchez Vicario was seeded- No. 3. The rest of the seedings followed the rankings, with Gabriela Sabatini, Mary Joe Fernandez, Conchita Martinez, Jennifer Capriati, Jana Novotna and Anke Huber rounding out the tern 10.
