KHOU-TV cameraman Jim Ship- ley was treated at a local hospital and releasedfor the small cut to his fore head and was doing fine, said Marc Watts, a sports reporter at the tele vision station. He did not need any stitches, Watts said. The incident began when Watts and Shipley went to Olajuwon’s house at about 11 a.m. to get com ment from him about a lawsuit filed late Friday by Uita Spencer, who claims the 6-11 center deserted her because he wanted a taller woman to bear his sons. Spencer is asking for $9 million in damages on grounds that Olajuwon refused to marry her after she be came pregnant in an attempt to prove to him that she could bear children. Watts said Olajuwon became an gry when he opened the door and realized a cameraman was with the ing that the two started to leave the house. But Olajuwon ran after the cam eraman and grabbed his video equipment, causing it to hit Shipley’s forehead. Watts said. Olajuwon went back into his house, and the photographer went to the hospital. Watts waited outside until some of Olajuwon’s triends came outside and returned the equipment —- minus the cassette tape, he said. Watts waited a while longer to try to get the tape, but Olajuwon told him he had destroyed it and then left in his car. The reporter said Ola juwon’s behavior was uncharacteris tic. reporter. “He started shouting at us and told us to get away,” Watts said, add- “Something just snapped,” Watts said. “I’ve never seen him that upset off the (basketball) court.” Olajuwon told Watts he didn’t want to comment about the lawsuit yet and that when he did he would call a press conference. Olajuwon could not be reached for comment. The lawsuit asks a federal judge to bar Olajuwon from leaving the United States, claiming that he had threatened to play basketball in Italy and take his assets with him. Steroid use estimates reach up to 30 percent KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — An off-season program begun last spring by the National Collegiate Athletic Association at 25 schools found nearly one-third of football players at some colleges tested posi tive for steroids. “The range we saw was from zero to up to 30 percent positive at some schools,” Frank Uryasz, director of sports sciences for the NCAA, told The Kansas City Star. He told The Associated Press that the overall av erage of players who tested positive was between 3 and 4 percent. Steroids, synthetic versions of the male sex hormone testosterone, have been linked to increased sports injuries and serious health risks. NCAA officials said the findings, to be released in greater detail this fall, suggest the current policy of testing players only prior to NCAA championship events and bowl games may deter steroid abuse, but has not ended it. Last fall, only 1.3 percent of 1,589 athletes tested positive for drugs be fore NCAA championships and bowl games. Only seven athletes tested postive for steroids. Uryasz said the off-season testing confirmed suspicions that college athletes are switching from oil- to water-based steroids to avoid detec tion. Some experts say water-based steroids usually wash out of most athletes within 14 days, so players preparing for bowl games have time to clean their systems of the drugs. Andujar, Astros beat Cubs HOUSTON (AP) — Pinch hit ter Denny Walling singled home the tiebreaking run in the sixth inning Fuesday night as the Houston Astros went on to beat the Chicago Cubs 7-4.
