MIfIBilimi Cowboys’ Walker suffers knee injury THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) — Dallas Cowboys’ running back Herschel Walker will be sidelined during Saturday’s NFL preseason game in San Diego because of strained ligaments in his right knee and might miss several others, coach Tom Landry said Monday. “Herschel’s knee needs some rest. He’s not definitely out of the San Francisco game in two weeks but he might miss the game,” Landry said. “I’d say Herschel’s best chance to play in his first preseason game is when we come home.” The Cowboys break their Thou sand Oaks training camp after play ing their second exhibition game, in San Francisco Aug. 22. Their first home exhibition game is Aug. 30 against the Los Angeles Raiders, fpl- lowed by a Sept. 5 game against the Houston Oilers at Texas Stadium in Irving. “Herschel strained the ligaments in practice and he just needs to take some time while those ligaments toughen up,” Landry said. “He worked awfully hard in the off-sea son and feels he could use the rest. There’s one thing about Herschel, you know he will stay in good shape.” Landry had already announced that Robert Lavette will start at run ning back in Saturday’ game against San Diego. Veteran running back Tony Dor- sett, who had surgery on both knees to remove deposits in the off-season, also will not play and is expected to be on the bench for most of the four- game exhibition season. Walker’s sprain brings to 22 the number of Cowboys watching from the sidelines with injuries, including wide receiver Mike Sherrard, who was to have been the cornerstone of the Cowboys’ offense. And veteran Jeff coat says Dallas to change image of being NFL’s nice guys THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) — Defensive end Jim Jeffcoat says no more nice Dallas Cowboys. “We’re starting something new this year. We’re going to attack. We’re going to be more aggressive. We’re going to take more chances. We’re going to be a lot tougher,” Jef fcoat said. The 1987 Cowboys, he said, are going to resort more to muscle and brawn than finesse and brains. “This is a new era for the Dallas Cowboys,” Jeffcoat said. “People have always thought of the Cowboys as a finesse team with a lot of cute tricks.” Jeffcoat says the 7-9 Cowboys have lost a lot of respect in the NFL. “We’re flat on the floor and now we have to scrap back,” Jeffcoat said. “Everybody, and I mean everybody, has written us off.” Jeffcoat likes the attitude of the 1985 World Champion Chicago Bears and the 1986 World Cham pion New York Giants. “Do the Bears and Giants take chances on defense?” Jeffcoat asks. “You bet they do. You have to make something happen. “Instead of a get tough policy we’re going to have a get rough pol icy.” He said the Cowboys have no chance if the defense doesn’t bounce back. “The defense is the key to our sea son,” he said. “We had to battle a lot of injuries last year.” Dallas was one of the worst pass rush teams in the NFL last year and failed to make the playoffs. “Putting pressure on the quar terback is fun and we’re going to put some fun back into the game,” Jef fcoat said. “We’re not going to sit back in the flex defense all the time. We have different blitzes and things we’re going to try on first down.” Despite an ankle injury that lim ited his mobility the second half of the season, Jeffcoat led the team in quarterback traps last year. “Jim should be improved this year,” Coach Tom Landry said. “His sprained ankle kept him from pier forming like he should. He’s a hard worker and gives you everything he’s got. And he produces traps.” Jeffcoat holds the club record for most sacks in a game, trapping Joe Theismann five times in a 1985 vic tory over Washington. “Jim has had an excellent training camp,” says defensive coordinator Ernie Stautner. “He’s quicker and a little bigger. I think he’ll have a tre mendous season.” Ueberroth’s bat policy drawing complaints from team managers NEW YORK (AP) — Commis sioner Peter Ueberroth’s new bat policy is aimed at insuring that no one uses an illegal bat. But managers suggest is may simply be a new tool to distract the game’s best hitters. Baseball’s checkup on doctored bats began Friday and allows man agers to ask the chief of the umpir ing crew to impound one bat per game from the opposing team. In announcing the illegal-bat pol icy Thursday, Ueberroth said his of fice had received “indications” that some players were using illegal bats. The commissioner’s office declined to reveal what kind of evidence it had, how it was obtained or which players were involved. “I know if I was a player and I had a bat I liked, and they wanted to con fiscate it, I’d say no,” Atlanta Man ager Chuck Tanner said. “That’s my game bat. That’s my living.” Not one bat was confiscated in Fri day’s 13 games, in which 28 home runs were hit. On Saturday night in Pittsburgh, however, Montreal Manager Buck Rodgers and Pittsburgh Manager Jim Leyland both challenged bats used to hit home runs. RJ. Reynolds hit a two-run homer in the fourth inning and the umpires U.S. crushes Argentina in basketball INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Danny Manning, Rex Chapman and Willie Anderson each scored 11 points to lead a balanced effort as the United States beat Argen tina 85-58 Monday in men’s bas ketball at the Pan American Games. Seven-foot-1 center David Robinson of Navy finished with 10 points and was the only other double-figure scorer for the United States which had all 12 players score at least four points. Chapman, a 6-5 guard from Kentucky, and Anderson, a 6-7 swingman from Georgia, had seven and five points, respec tively, in the first half to lead the United States to a 42-34 halftime advantage. The victory was the second in as many days for the United States which has a 31-game win ning streak in Pam Am competi tion dating to 1971. Argentina, 0-1, beat the United States 74-70 last year in the World Championships, but this team was missing four players from that team because of a sal ary dispute. In other men’s games Monday, Brazil met Uruguay; Mexico faced Panama; and Virgin Is lands played Canada. complied with Rodgers’ request to impound the bat. Raines hit a two- run homer in the sixth, bringing out Leyland with the same request. The bats confiscated from Rey nolds and Raines were X-rayed at a nearby medical facility and found to “I know if I was a player and I had a bat I liked, and they wanted to confis cate it, I’d say no. That’s my game bat. That’s my living.” — Chuck Tanner be free of cork. National League umpires supervisor Ed Vargo said Sunday. The “situation” seemed to be to even the score and go after the Ex pos’ best hitter. “Obviously people are going to go after the (Andre) Dawsons, the (Jack) Clarks, the (Tim) Wallachs,” New York Mets Manager Davey Johnson said. “I want to resolve this thing with the managers. The way it IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa football Coach Hayden Fry on Mon day assailed a newspaper for taking a “cheap shot” at him by running a story on a report that said he was fired at Southern Methodist Univer sity in 1972 because of NCAA rules violations. While never saying flatly there were no infractions at SMU during his tenure, Fry said he was “infu riated” by the story and couldn’t un derstand why a reporter would bring up something that happened 15 years and has since been resolved. The Des Moines Register on Sat urday published excerpts of a report by a committee of United Methodist Church bishops who said the Faculty Athletic Council at SMU demanded that university President Paul Har din dismiss Fry because the council had “uncovered widespread major violations of NCAA rules in the foot ball program.” Fry lashed out at the newspaper when asked about the story at a news conference during the Hawkeyes’ annual media day activities. “That journalism that came out this weekend was uncalled for,” he said. “To report on something 15 years ago, something that was com pletely setded by the NCAA, which interviewed me after I left there. Since that time, there have been three investigations, penalties as sessed. If that’s still news . . . “It’s just very, very hard for me to digest that with any good taste in my is now it’ll just depend on the mood of the manager that day.” Last Thursday night, Johnson’s mood was not too good. Umpires confiscated New York third baseman Howard Johnson’s bat after he hit his 27th home run for the Mets against Chicago. It was x-rayed and found to be legal. Last week, after Johnson hom- ered in St. Louis, Cardinals Manager Whitey Herzog claimed Johnson’s bat was illegal — and still does. Herzog and Coach Red Shoen- dienst told reporters in Philadelphia Sunday that they had earlier X- rayed one of Johnson’s bat earlier this year and said the X-ray showed there was something besides wood inside. “You could see it plain as day.” Schoendienst said. “It’s a line about five inches long, as big as your fin ger.” Davey Johnson said Herzog’s ac cusations may lead to similar allega tions against the Cardinals. “Herzog better have plenty of bats for Jack Clark on the road,” he said. “I’m sure every opposing manager is going to do it to his team. We kind of respect each other’s job, but if some body’s going to stir something up, I’m going to retaliate.” mouth going into the season at this point when it was 15 years ago. “No accusation was made against me or my staff by the president or athletic committee at SMU.” Fry was the football coach at SMU from 1962-72. Following his dis missal, he went to North Texas State for five years, then took the Iowa job in late 1978. The Iowa coach said he never was told why he was fired by SMU, which was 7-4 in his final season, and after a while he didn’t care to find out be cause he had better jobs at North Texas and Iowa. However, Fry did say he was upset with the way SMU officials handled his firing. “When you finish half a game out of the championship, you’re five points away from being 9-2, you lead the Southwest Conference in total defense, you’re second by two yards in total offense, you have practically all the kids coming back the next year, for the first time you have an excellent staff, then you get fired,” Fry recounted. “You have two years remaining on your contract, you’re not told why you’re fired, you don’t get a penny of the remaining two years on your contract, they cut you and your staff off the insurance for you and your families and don’t ever tell you — those are the things I care about.” But as far as actually firing him, Fry said the school had that right. “I’ve always believed that if a school hires you, they have the right to fire you,” he said.
