^sports Battalion/Page 10 July 13,1982 TANK MCNAMARA by Jeff Millar & Bill Hinds Jones, Saldi file lawsuit over salary negociations United Press International NEW YORK — The agent for Dallas Cowboys’ defensive end Ed Jones and tight end Jay Saldi Monday filed a suit in U.S. Dis trict Court in an attempt to block the NFL Players Association from handling their contract negotiations. Don Cronson, a New York attorney, filed the suit against the NFLPA and the NFL. He said the suit was filed on behalf \ of the two Cowboys as well as Tim Wrightman, a rookie tight end with the Chicago Bears. The NFLPA has the right to negotiate salaries for players but has waived the right in the past and allowed players to negotiate their own contracts. The play ers’ collective bargaining agree ment with the owners expires Thursday and the NFLPA now says veteran players and rookies who have not signed by mid night Thursday cannot sign un til management and the NFLPA reach a new agreement. The NFLPA has also said un signed veteran players can play for their clubs for 110 percent of their 1981 contracts, or for the club’s last written offer, whichever is higher. It also said unsigned rookies could not re port to camp. Both Wrightman and Jones are unsigned and Saldi is in the option year of his contract. The suit seeks to bar the NFLPA from preventing the players from negotiating and signing new pacts. Orioles’ Flanagan expresses joy over nation’s fourth-ever test-tube baby United Press International B ALTI MORE — The thrill of winning the 1979 Cy Young Award was nothing compared to the joy Baltimore Orioles’ pitch er Mike Flanagan felt when he watched the birth of his first child — the nation’s fourth test- tube baby. “I witnessed the whole thing and it was amazing,” Flanagan, 30, said at a Monday news con- Now You Know ference. “Winning the Cy Young was a lot more physical effort on my part. But when you talk about thrills, nothing com pares to this.” Mrs. Flanagan gave birth to the 8-pound, 8-ounce girl, named Kerry Ellen, Friday at Greater Baltimore Medical Cen ter following eight hours of labor. The infant was the first test- tube baby to be delivered by “normal, spontaneous vaginal delivery,” rather than by Caesa rean section, doctors said. Mrs. Flanagan was seated in a wheelchair holding the baby during the news conference. “This makes me believe in mira cles,” the new mother said. “I never thought I’d have one.” The dark-haired baby, dres sed in a white lace dress trimmed with pink satin ribbons was obli vious to the platoon of reporters and cameramen and slept through the entire event, “Kathy had the courage and determination to go through with this. I’m very proud of her and the baby. All we wanted was a chance to have a baby and we got a square deal, as you can see,” Flanagan said with an approving nod. The baby was conceived by the in-vitro fertilization method at the Eastern Virginia Medical School, in Norfolk, Va. United Press International Soap’s secret ability to cleanse is linked to its role as a molecular middleman. It forces water and oil-substances which normally shun each other to mix together. When you wash your hands with water alone, oils on the skin shed the water before you can get every wet — or clean. But soaps change this because one end of its molecule attaches to grease and oil, while the other end attachs to water molecules. When scrubbing, you break oil and grease into particles that don’t normally stay mixed with water. But the soap molecules surround each soil particle, attracting the dirt into the water. Linked, the particles remained together long enough to be rinsed away. 7,^ i0truyrnrm vswsyPty FmeST OPTICAL QUA.UTY Distortiom free lenses WHOLE LARTH PROVISION COMPANY 1 105 Boyett 846-8794 J BRAZOS TIRE SERVICE AN AGGIE OWNED BUSINESS SINCE 1952 J.

Vilas, Lendl to open today United Press International BROOKLINE, Mass. — The top two seeds will take the court in the $200,000 U.S. Profession al Tennis Championships today fully aware of the fact two other seeded players have already packed their bags for home. Top-seed Guillermo Vilas of Argentina and No. 2 Ivan Lendl of Czechoslovakia will begin ac tion in a tournament in which fifth-seeded Raul Ramirez of Mexico and No. 16 Juan Aven- dano of Spain fell in first-round action Monday. Glenn Holroyd, a relative un known from Phoenix, Ariz., used a tough serve-and-volley game to upset Ramirez. Hol royd, 27, had two first-round losses in Association of Tennis Professionals tournaments and was ranked 243rd in the world before stunning Ramirez, 7-6 (7- 5), 6-4. The serve-and-volley tactic was unusual on the slow clay sur face, but Holroyd said: “I knew if I hit it on the baseline, he’d run it down.” “I never had a big win against a player like Ramirez on his best surface.” Unseeded Harold Solomon, once ranked in the top five in the world, defeated practice partner Rick Fagel, 6-4, 6-1, in the fea tured evening match. “This is my first regular match in six weeks,” said Solo mon, who has lost twice in the Longwood final. “In fact, I’ve been practicing hard with Ricky and I’ve been beating him easily. He played better in the first set tonight. However, I was confi dent from our practice ses sions.” In the Grand Masters singles final, Mai Anderson of Bris bane, Australia defeated Alex Olmedo of Encino, Calif., 6-0, 5-7, 3-0 (retired) to take the $3,450 first prize. In other action, Mike Cahill of the U.S. defeated South African Danie Visser, 6-3, 3-6, 6-3; Jonathan Canter, U.S., defeated Drew Gitlin of the U.S., 6-3,6-4; and Mark Dickson, U.S., defe ated Mark Bauer, U.S., 6-3, 6-0. Two other seeds survived, No. 13 Alejandro Ganzabal of Argentina, defeating American John Ross, 6-4, 6-3, and No. 9 seed Van Winitsky, beating Spain’s Gabriel Urpi, 4-6, 6-1, 6-4.
