U.S. skaters hurt by tragedy, unrest
CALGARY, Alberta (AP) — The
U.S. men’s speed skating team, beset
by tragedy and internal dissension,
was still rumbling Monday, and
Coach Mike Crowe admitted some
skaters may have lost confidence in
him.
“It seems that way right now,”
Crowe said. “It disturbs me. I think
in a way that’s from having too large
a team. It definitely has affected per
formances of people involved.”
First, there were angry words and
threats of legal action over the dis
cretionary process of team selection.
Then, on Sunday, the sister of world
sprint champion Dan Jansen died,
and Jansen fell in the 500 meters
later in the day.
Team captain Erik Henriksen,
meanwhile, was appealing his loss of
a starting spot in Thursday night’s
1,000 meters. Another skater, Brian
Wanek, said he would appeal to the
U.S. Olympic Committee because he
was bumped as a starter at 1,500 me
ters.
Jansen, who was posing for pic
tures with other family members at
the Olympic Oval Monday, will try to
bounce back in Thursday’s 1,000-
,meter race.
“Yesterday was a little too tough
for him,” Crowe said. “It was tough
to focus on skating.”
Crowe said he believes about half
the 20-skater team, many of whom
have personal coaches, was dissatis
fied .
“I think the others have stayed
away from it and are continuing to
train, and I don’t think they’re let
ting it bother them,” Crowe said.
Dissension surfaced last week
when Dan Cruikshank, who qual
ified for the team by winning the
1,000-meter Olympic trials, pro
tested being replaced as a starter by
Tom Cushman.
Cushman’s attorney saitl Cush
man declined to race in the 500 me
ters, even though an arbitrator
upheld the process used for his se
lection to the field. Starters at the va
rious distances are selected by
coaches and team officials.
Cruikshank was joined in his orig
inal appeal to the USOC of the
1,000-meter field by Henriksen and
John Baskfield. A USOC committee
denied that appeal, too.
Problems on the team may go
deeper than those directly affected.
Nick Thometz lost his world record
and finished eighth in the 500 me
ters Sunday night when he skated in
the pair behind Jansen.
“The lack of concentration was
partially due to Dan’s fall and that
was connected to Dan’s situation,”
Crowe said. He’s not going to let it
happen again.”
Crowe had disagreements with
some of his skaters after he mhde his
selections for starting spots.
Some claimed he made the J
choices. Others say lie just tonlj
long. Still others have criticize,:|

U.S.A. chokes against Czechs
CALCARY, Alberta (AP) — The
United States blew a 3-0 lead and
collapsed under the weight of a fi
nal-period barrage in a 7-5 Olympic
hockey loss to Czechoslovakia Mon
day right.
The victory kept alive the Cze
choslovaks’ hopes for a spot in the
medals round. They had lost 2-1 to
West Germany in their opening
game and seemed on the way to an
other defeat when they rallied for
four third-period goals, the winner a
short-handed goal with 5:29 left.
The Americans scored on their
first three shots against No. 1 goal-
tender Dominik Hasek in the open
ing 6:08. But their composure col
lapsed in the final two periods as
they allowed several breakaways.
Goaltender Mike Richter played
strongly in goal, but was unable to
stop the Czechoslovak charge.
Fhe United States, which beat
Austria 10-6 in its opener, will meet
the unbeaten Soviets Wednesday
night. The Americans and Czechos
lovaks are 1-1 behind the Soviet
Union and West Germany, both 2-0.
The top three teams in each pool
advance to the medals round.
Dusan Pasek led the Czech
comeback, scoring the tying goal
with 7:25 left, then setting up Igor
Liba’s game-winner with a perfect
pass to cap a two-on-one break.
The Czecks were minus one
player serving a holding penalty
when they won it, Pasek roaring
down the right side and drawing two
U.S. defensemen to him before
feeding Liba.
The Czechs protected their one-
goal lead by killing off a power play
for the last 1:26. Pasek scored into
an empty net with nine seconds left
after the Americans pulled Richter
for an extra attacker, giving them a
two-man skating advantage.
The result disappointed a lively,
pro-American crowd that chanted
“USA, USA” throughout.
Corey Milieu, who had two goals
and two assists in Saturday’s opening
10-6 rout of Austria, began the scor
ing 3:27 into the game with a shot
from the slot. Craig Janney swept in
a backhander at 4:44 and Allen
Bourbeau beat Hasek from the right
side at 6:08.
At that point, Hasek was replaced
by Jaromir Sindel, who also played
against the Germans.
The Czechs started tit
comeback when Petr Rosol stg
from the lower right circle at II
of the first period.
Dave Snuggerud boosted j
Americans’ lead to 4-1 whetl
scored on a sharply angled shot
power play at 1:30 of thesecomlij
riod. But the Czechs came bad.t
the next three goals.
Antonin Stavgana scored I
the right point at 13:17, Vlada
Ruz icka connected from tlted
lac eoff circle at 15:11 tomaketll
anti Stavgana scored again »i
shot from just inside the bhielt
4 :03 of the third period.
Scott Fusco put the Amen® j
at 6:27, scoring from just ouoidf
crease on a power play aftera*
by Tony Cranato.
Maverick owner wants
no more Mr. Nice Guy
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Dallas
Mavericks owner Donald Carter
wants his team to stop being “nice
guys” and says the club’s current
problems are the result of a mental
letdown.
Carter made the remarks after
watching the Mavericks take a 110-
100 NBA victory over the Los An
geles Clippers Sunday nipjit in Los
Angeles.
“Our guys are not in it,” Carter
said.
“I don’t know what it is. We get a
lead and the nice guy comes out in
’em.
“I believe in human beings, but
there comes a time when you have to
bury ’em.”
The Mavericks grabbed a 17-
point lead in the first quarter against
the lowly Clippers, but had to hang
on at the end of the game for the vic
tory.
Boston Celtics, 105-104, at Reunion
Arena in Dallas.
“I was concerned about what the
Boston loss might have done,” Car
ter told the Fort Worth Star- Tele
gram.
Asked if this means he will con
sider a move before the NBA Feb.
25 trade deadline, Carter said, “I’d
say we’re still playing with our pat
hand.”
“I think it’s from here up,” he
said, pointing to his shoulders.
“And that doesn’t change their
talent. It’s easier to fix than change
the talent.”
Dallas coach John MacLeod said
he didn’t think the Boston loss had
any effect on the team Sunday night.
Carter, in Southern California on
business, said he had also heard
from his wife, Linda, that the Maver
icks blew a fourth-quarter lead last
Friday night when they lost to the
“Based on how we broke out at
the start, I’d say we were ready after
that Boston game,” MacLeod said.
“Our first quarter was excellent. But
at the end, they pressed a lot and we
didn’t handle it well.”
Asked what Carter told him in the
locker room, MacLeod said, “He
said we need to work on our ball
handling.”
Rockets GM: Agents
use fear on players
BEAUMONT (AP) — Most
sports agents use fear and preju
dice to take advantage of basket
ball players, according it) Hous
ton Rockets president and
general manager Ray Patterson.
“It’s easy for an agent to come
in and say, ‘Boy, I’m going to pro
tect you against die plantation
boss,’ or, ‘We’re going to protect
you against all that white estab
lishment,”’ he said. “Unfortu
nately, blacks are in a position to
buy that stuff.”
While most of the 276 NBA
players are black, the league’s
clubs are owned predominantly
by whites.
“Because (blacks) fiave been
mistreated and they have been
misused, naturally if some, great
white savior is going to come in
and say, ‘I’m going to save you
from the worst of the white
world,’ (blacks) are going to buy
it,” he said in an interview pub
lished Sunday in the Beaumont
Enterprise.
“But it just boggles my mind
when I see players come in
represented by people whodonij
have one-tenth the brain powt
that the player has himself."
Some agents have comeuntle:|
fire lately for giving athlete-1
money oi other inducemeiiii|
while still eligible to participate it I
college athletics. Laws passedicl
some states ban agents front col-f
lege campuses.
“I’d love to go on the circuital
hours aday, 3o5daysayeartotnl
and tell young athletes that tkl
most diabolical people that are it I
the world, No. bare agents,
secondly, unscrupulous coached
who have been paid off and I
bought off to go ahead and sat,
Tm going to get you tothispar l
tit ular franchise,’ ’’ Patterson |
said.
Players should hire creditable I
lawyers and accountants by ilit
hour only after moving into the
negotiating stage of a contract to
make sure professional clubs arc
not taking advantage of them, he J
said.
Wadkins back on track after taking Hawaiian Open tourne
HONOLULU (AP) — Lanny
Wadkins is a little annoyed and more
than a little impatient when the PGA
Tour opens each year.
“You come out to California to
start things off and you’re tied,”
Wadkins said.“I don’t like that.”
Wadkins is long noted as one of
pro golfs most intense competitors.
“Maybe that’s why I’m pumped
up, anxious to get started, get some
good things happening in a hurry.
“I don’t like to go limping along
with $10,000 on the money list,” he
said.
He solved that problem with a
one-shot victory Sunday in the Ha
waiian Open.
The l/th of his 18-season Tour
career victories was worth $108,000
and lifted Wadkins into fifth place
on the year’s money-winning list at
$123,340.
And it marked the fourth of his
last five wins that have come in the
first two months of the season.
“It’s a good start. Something to
build on,” Wadkins said before start
ing a week’s vacation with his wile on
the big island of Hawaii, where he
has an affiliation with a resort.
His next start will be in the Los
Angeles Open at Riviera, “one of my
favorite courses,” he said and where
he’s won before. It will be followed
by Doral, where he’s the defending
champion.
He’ll be using a different putter
— not a new one, just different.
“I changed putters after the®j
J” at tl
missind
oriel round” at the Hawaiian 0|
Wadkins said. “I’d been
bunch of putts and I just
hack to an old one I'd used before
“I do that a lot, just to g
thing different in my hand.
“It worked. I changed putters) 1
