Olajuwon injures
KHOU-TV worker
HOUSTON (AP) — A television
cameraman suffered a cut to his
head Tuesday when Houston Rock
ets star Akeem Olajuwon grabbed
his video equipment after a reporter
questioned him about a lawsuit filed
against him by his former girlfriend.
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.

ter Denny Walling singled home
