HOUSTON — Ray Childress,
a former defensive end for Texas
A&M and the Houston Oilers’
first-round draft choice, likely
will be a holdout when Oiler
rookies report to training camp,
his agent said Wednesday.
Childress, the third player cho
sen in the 1985 National Football
League collegiate draft, remained
unsigned along with Wisconsin
cornerback Richard Johnson, also
picked in the first round by the
Oilers.
but both sides were still too far
apart.
“I don’t see how we can get ev
erything worked out before Fri
day,” Courrage said. “Ray has got
a definite figure in mind that he
wants and it’s obvious that the
league is trying to hold these fig
ures down.”
Herzeg said the Oilers have of
fered Childress a contract in line
with that paid to last year’s No. 1
draft choice, offensive lineman
Dean Steinkuhler.
Edward Sewell, San Francisco,
who represents Johnson, also said
he is pessimistic about Johnson
being in training camp Friday.
Six other Oiler draft choices
are unsigned.
“We’re a good bit apart right
now,” Childress’ agent, Joe Cour
rage, said following a telephone
session Wednesday with Oilers
General Manager Ladd Herzeg.
“A problem here that people
aren’t understanding is that Ray
has a development company that
is earning him money right now.
He’s certainly not over a barrel
with the Oilers as far as his liveli
hood is concerned.”
Courrage said Herzeg’s latest
proposal involved more money,
“We felt that we paid a lot to
sign Dean Steinkuhler last year,”
Herzeg said. “He was (he second
player chosen and Ray was the
third player chosen this year. We
feel that Dean and Ray are about
equal and we are willing to com
pensate him accordingly.”
Steinkuhler signed a four-year
contract for a reported $2.6 mil
lion last season.
“If he (Childress) thinks he can
earn more in the contstruction
business, then maybe he
shouldn’t be looking at pro foot
ball,” Herzeg said.
Sewell said Johnson was aware
that negotiations could be pro
tracted.
“You have to be talking in or
der to sign a contract and we’re
not talking,” Sewell said. “I’m

sure at some point Ladd will want
to talk about Richard's contract
and until we find that he’s
changed his mind about want
Richard’s services, we won’t con

Herzeg also must resolve the
contract dispute with running
back Larry Moriarty, the team's
leading rusher last season and a
key figure in plans this season.

Associated Press
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. —
Matt Darwin, an offensive line
man from Texas A&M, just
might not be playing in the Na
tional Football League in 1985.
Gil Brandt, the Cowboys’ per
sonnel director, says as far as he’s
concerned, Darwin won’t be with
the club this season.
But Darwin’s agent, Randy
Hendricks, has called Brandt’s
stance “a power play” that won’t
work.
Hendricks said Brandt called
him Tuesday, suspended negotia
tions, and said the Cowboys’ offer
of a $55,000 signing bonus for
Darwin, a center-guard and fifth-
round draft choice, was no longer
available.
Brandt said the offer would be
cut by $2,500 a day for each day
Darwin stayed out of camp, Hen
dricks said.
Darwin and first-round draft
choice Kevin Brooks, a defensive
Besides the bonus, the Cow
boys’ offer to Darwin included
salaries of $70,()()(), $85,000 and
$100,000 with an option.
Historically, a fifth-round
draft choice usually is only bor
derline to make the cut.
As
“It’s just a power play. Brandt
told me he got our proposal and
wouldn’t pay a dime more than
he already offered. He said he
didn’t see the point in beating
'around the bush and was ending

win,” Hendricks said.
“Somewhere along the line you
have to compromise if you are
drafted fifth,” Cowboys Coach
T om Landry said. “You have to
say, ’Let me make the team, and
then the monev will come.’”
Matt Darwin
“We’re not going to knuckle
under. We’re not taking that
deal,” the agent said.
Brandt said he and Hendricks
are so far apart that it’s safe to say
Darwin probably won’t play for
the Cowboys in 1985.
If Darwin doesn’t sign and the
Cowboys don’t trade his rights,he
could sign with a USFL team for
1986 or put his name back into
the 1986 draft. Brandt has said
he will not trade the team’s NFL
rights to Darwin this season.
lineman from Michigan, are the
only draft choices still unsigned.
Matt Moran, an offensive guard
from Stanford, has signed a series
of one-year contracts, the club an
nounced Tuesday.
“As far as I’m concerned, he
won’t be here this year. The
money they are talking about and
what we’re offering, I don’t see
how we can make a compromise,”
Brandt said.
Darwin played every position
on the offensive line while at
Texas A&M, earning second
team All-Southwest Conference
honors at the center position in
’83 and ’84. The 6-foot-4, 261
pound lineman was expected to
try the guard position with the
Cowboys.

Slaney, Budd ready for rematch
Associated Press
LONDON — America’s Mary
Decker Slaney and her new coach,
Luiz Oliveira, are playing down the
significance of next Saturday’s ea
gerly awaited clash with Britain’s
Zola Budd.
Slaney and Budd race over 3,000
meters at a Grand Prix meet at Lon
don’s Crystal Palace stadium for the
first time since their collision at the
Los Angeles Olympic Games.
The now famous clash of legs in
the 3,000 at the Los Angeles Col
iseum left the medal hopes of both
runners in tatters. Slaney lay writh
ing in agony on the side of the track,
while Budd’s concentration snapped
and she finished disappointingly in
seventh place amid boos from the
pro-American crowd. ,
The bitter recriminations that fol
lowed made a rematch a thrilling
prospect. But in the weekly British
entertainment magazine, TV Times,
published Wednesday, Slaney said:
-“I will be happy to run against
Zola again but as far as I’m con
cerned she is now just another run
ner. The best situation is if it’s just
another race, if we both just happen
to be there.

it bothers me. I wanted to win but it
isn’t a great tragedy. It’s behind me
now.”

Slaney is due to arrive iu London
on Thursday and has scheduled a
lunchtime press conference the
same day at a downtown hotel.
Meanwhile, the mass-circulation
Daily Mil rot newspaper reported
that Slaney and Budd would not
meet in London until actually lining
up on the track at Crystal Palace and
that Budd’s coach, Peter Labus-
chagne, had banned all prerace in
