three points.
Field goals are considered easy
points. Talbot made almost 69
percent of his field goals last year —
equaling the national average of
kicks made.
Maybe with the smaller width of
the posts, these easy points will not
be as easy. The uprights are reduced
from 23’4” to 18’6” while the current
width of the hash marks on the field
will stay the same.
So the angle to the center of the
f oal is increased, thus making the
ick more challenging. The NCAA
Rules Committee made this change
hoping to keep football a team sport
rather than an individual sport,
which is basically what kicking is.
Since all colleges will switch next
year, high schools will have to switch
as well. This is where a problem is
created.
High school football teams, for
the most part, run on a limited
budget. Buying new goal posts is not
cheap, especially if theyjust recently
purchased some of the wider posts,
not expecting the new rule to pass.
I remember in high school
everyone was always worrying about
extra costs and “extravagant” items
for the lab classes and such were
always put off because the school
just couldn’t afford it at the time.
But, since football is so dear in the
hearts of many, that next year I
could drive by my alma mater and
see those new uprights gleaming in
the sun.
So now we’re left wondering if the
NCAA Rules Committee has made a
brilliant move or if it has just created
more havoc. One way or another,
kickers will still be in the same place
as before, either being the scapegoat
for a loss or receiving a short-lived
hero’s applaud for winning.
So, I guess we’ll have to wait and
see next year. Meanwhile, I’ll go
make a round by my high school.

against the San Diego Chargers.
Dallas gave Houston second and
third round draft picks.
“Alonzo is the best blocking full
back in the league and a winner
through and through,” Johnson
said. “Now we only have one piece
the of the puzzle left.”
Johnson said he knew of no im
mediate movement in talks with
Smith, who is asking $700,000 a sea
son on a three-year contract. The
Cowboys are offering about
$600,000 with a $1 million bonus.
“It feels good to get back to coach
Johnson again,” said Highsmith.
“He’s running the same offense we
had in college. I know what he is all
about. His main thing is to win.”
Highsmith was Houston’s leading
rusher in 1989 with 531 yards.
He rushed for only 35 yards on
five carries in the preseason.
Highsmith said he didn’t like play
ing for then-Houston coach Jerry
Glanville.
“I’ve regressed since I went to
Houston,” Highsmith said. “My pass
receiving and running skills went
down. All they wanted me to do was
block.”
Highsmith passed the Dallas phys-
although
ical although he was bothered by a
sprained foot.
“I hurt my foot a couple of weeks
ago and it’s been painful,” he said.
“I’ll still be ready to go on Sunday.
“I’ve never been a loser and I
came here to win,” Highsmith said.
“It was frustrating just wasting my
time in Houston. I thought I’d be
the top fullback in the NFL but
never got an opportunity to prove
it.”
The Cowboys also obtained guard
John Gesek from the Los Angeles
Raiders for a future draft pick Mon
day.
To make room for the moves, the
Cowboys put placekicker Ken Willis
and running back Tim Smith on re
call waivers. If they aren’t claimed in
24 hours the Cowboys can bring
them back to the team if they so
wish.
Head scout John Wooten said
Highsmith could be the missing in
gredient the Cowboys need to get
their running game going.
“I like this guy second only to
breathing,” Wooten said. “He can
play.”

Graf next goes against 12th-
seeded Jana Novotna, who beat No.
7 Katerina Maleeva 6-4, 6-2. Fourth-
seeded Zina Garrison also advanced
to the quarters with a 6-1, 7-5 victory
over Nathalie Tauziat of France.
GraFs victory came on the same
day when she was ranked No. 1 for
the 160th straight week, a record for
both men and women.
It was obvious early in the first set,
when Capriati seemed tentative and
her usually solid forehands and
backhands floated long or into the
net, that she was suffering a case of
stage fright.
“At the beginning I couldn’t hit a
ball,” said Capriati, overly excited
“just going out there knowing that
you’re on the stadium court, and ev
erybody’s going to be out there
watching.”
Capriati had said before the
match that she was “psyched up”
and ready to attack Graf. She said
she told herself at the start of play,
“keep moving, attack a lot, serve
well.”
But nothing came. Instead, she
stood and watched Graf as if trying
to record in her memory how she
plays.
“If you don’t lose, you don’t
learn,” Capriati said. “Every match
you lose, you learn something from
it. At first, I wasn’t doing anything.
not making shots, not coming to the
net. Next time I can’t let that hap
pen. She’s definitely still at another
level.”
Graf sympathized with her.
“I think there was a lot of pressure
on her. I think she was tight,” Graf
Said. “She''didnVplay as well as srhe"'
can play. I expected a tough, hard-
fought match.”
Capriati, who reached the semifi
nals at the French Open and has
nearly $7 million in commercial en
dorsements in her first year as a pro,
acknowledged she was disappointed
.with the loss, but displayed a typ
ically mature attitude.
“This is not the end of the world
for me,” she said. “I’ll think about it,
and continue on to the next tourna
ment. I feel great. I know now how it
is to play in a Grand Slam. I learned
so much, just playing one match. It’s
been a great year for me. I think I’ve
done well, mainly getting experi
ence.”
Becker and Cahill engaged in a 3-
hour, 14-minute dogfight in which
the momentum changed repeatedly.
Cahill, who called Goran Ivanisevic’s
effort in a third-round loss “gutless,”
played as courageously as possible
against Becker.
Cahill, who beat a limping Becker
here two years ago, won eight
straight points in the fourth and
fifth games of the first set as he
weathered Becker’s hard serves and
sometimes wild shots.

Southwest Conference Roundup
Tech’s Dykes praises
SWC’s weekend play
PAUL,
GcrriNi
yi
LUBBOCK (AP) — The Southwest Conference put aside its contro
versies over the weekend and got down to playing some impressive,
hard-knocks football, Texas Tech head coach Spike Dykes said Monday
at his weekly press conference.
“The Southwest Conference looked all right out there,” Dykes said
of victories by No. 13 Texas A&M and Rice and a narrow loss by Baylor
to No. 7 Nebraska.
“I hope those teams start playing worse by the time they play
They looked tough.”

leave the Southwest Conference dominated headlines. But on Saturday,
action on the field took precedence as Texas A&M defeated Hawaii 28-
13, Rice whipped Wake Forest 33-17 and Baylor suffered a 13-0 loss at
Nebraska.
Texas Christian was outmanned by Washington State 21-3.
“I’ll tell ya, going in, Baylor had no business even being on the same
field with Nebraska, but they played a great defensive game,” Dykes
said. “They have got a heckuva defensive line. They’re front four could
go bear hunting with a switch.”
Dykes, who is preparing the Red Raiders for their season opener at
No. 17 Ohio State Saturday, said he would like to “take a page out of
Baylor’s book when we play the Buckeyes.”
Dykes is counting on his defense, which features eight returning
starters from last year’s 9-3 team, to anchor the Red Raiders until a
young offensive line can mature.
“We are not going to shut out Ohio State, but we have to contain
their offense which features some of the best players in the Big Ten
Conference,” Dykes said.
Dykes singled out all-Big Ten quarterback Greg Frey, fullback Scot-
tie Graham and center Dan Beatty as players Tech will have to control.
Dykes said the Buckeyes’ Alonzo Spellman may be the best de
fensive lineman in the country.
“He’s unbelievable,” Dykes said. “Their defense has great athletes
and they are tough. Our young offensive line is going to look up and
see guys with teeth missing, stitches all over their faces and tattoos. That
will grow you up in a hurry.”
Dykes said he has shown his team pictures of the Buckeyes’ famed
horseshoe-shaped Ohio Stadium to prepare them for the near 90,000
fans expected to attend Saturday’s game.
A visiting team has not beaten Ohio State in its home opener since
1978, when Penn State beat the Buckeyes, 19-0.
But Dykes says his team showed last year with wins at Oklahoma
State (31-15) and Texas (24-17) that the Red Raiders can win on the
road.
Dykes said questions he had with Tech’s kicking game about a week
ago have cleared up.
He said Lin Elliot, who connected on only nine of 19 field goals last
year, “has improved tremendously this fall” and freshman walk-on
Mike Delagerheim will likely be the starting punter.
“I believe our players are ready for (the Ohio State) game," Dykes
said. “They are up for the challenge and will play their fannies off.”

Baylor’s Teaff presents
minimum attendance policy
HOUSTON (AP) — Despite lukewarm reception from several key
Southwest Conference figures, Baylor Coach Grant TeafFs idea to set
attendance criteria for SWC membership will be discussed during Fri
day’s conference presidents’meeting in Dallas. .,
Teaff said he favors setting atteridance minimUjiTj^ at a level deemed
adequate by the conference, with any school failing to meet the mini
mum over a set period of time denied league membership.
“We could say that each school has to average 30,000 — or maybe
35,000 — in home attendance,” Teaff told The Houston Post. “I don’t
think that any school that really commits itself to playing Division I foot
ball could fail to reach 30,000.”
Last year four SWC schools failed to average 30,000 football fans.
The University of Houston drew an average of 28,449; Texas Chris
tian, 24,856; Southern Methodist, 21,922 and Rice, 18,540.
Houston Athletic Director Rudy Davalos said he disagrees with Tea
fFs plan.
“You can’t base it strictly on attendance,” Davalos said. “There are
all kinds of ways you can generate revenues. We’re probably going to go
to something in our league where there’s a guarantee where we pay ev
erybody, say $150,000. They pay us the same when we play there —that
way it’s a wash.
“I guess everyone of us could come up with self-serving ideas that
could make sense. Maybe I’ll bring up one that says if you haven’t been
to the NCAA Final Four or the Cotton Bowl in the last 10 years, you
shouldn’t stay in the conference.”
Rice Athletic Director Bobby May said he thinks TeafFs idea is
worth considering.
“I think everyone is clearly convinced everyone could do a better job
of putting more people in the seats, and I think conceptually you would
be expected to have a certain number of people in the seats,” May said.
But he also said mandating minimum attendance probably is unnec
essary.
“Our whole conference is on an upswing. What happened in recent
weeks has drawn a lot of attention to the conference and maybe now ev
erybody will appreciate it,” May said.
