Foyt suffers
fractures in
racing crash
Austrians close
to Cup victory
VIENNA, Austria (AP) —
Thomas Muster and Horst Skoff,
the odd couple of Austrian ten
nis, brought their nation within
one set of a Davis Cup semifinal
victory over the United States be
fore darkness halted play Sun
day.
Muster played nearly {lawless
tennis in beating mistake-prone
Andre Agassi 6-2, 6-2, 7-6 (7-2),
tying the best-of-5 series 2-2.
Then Skoff led Michael Chang 6-
3, 7-6 (7-4), 4-6 when play was
suspended.
Skoff and Chang will complete
their match Monday, in this series
that has been plagued by rain and
cold.
The winner will face Australia
in the Davis Cup Final Nov. 30-
Dec. 2. The Australians defeated
Argentina 5-0 in the other semifi
nal.
Muster, who is 24-0 in Davis
Cup matches on clay courts, kept
Agassi off balance with sharp
passing shots, well-disguised lobs
and d<3icate drop shots.
The Skoff-Chang match
started an hour late because of
rain.
Muster and Skoff are old rivals
and make no secret of their dis
like for each other. They have
been feuding since they were
youngsters and barely talk to each
other while with the team.
“We are not a soccer team, we
don’t have to pass to each other,”
Muster said. “We are professional
—each one has to do his job.”
The animosity is partly a mat
ter of personality — Muster is a
hard-working introvert and Skoff
an undisciplined extrovert — and
because they are competing for
the same fans.

THE G-AME IN THE F1KS T PLACE /
ELKHART LAKE, Wis. (AP) —
AJ. Foyt, the winningest driver in
Indy-car racing history, was in satis
factory condition Sunday after a
crash during the Texaco-Havoline
200 in which he broke his left knee
and heel and dislocated his right
foot.
Foyt, 55, went off the rolling 4-
mile, 11-turn circuit at the end of the
main straightaway, drove over a
berm and into a grassy depression.
The front end of the car was
crushed in on top of the four-time
Indianapolis 500 winner and it took
CART safety workers more than 15
minutes to cut the injured driver out
of the damaged Lola.
Dr. Steve Olvey, director of medi
cal affairs for CART, said, “His vital
signs are stable and have been stable
throughout the entire episode. He’s
awake and alert and talking. He has
badly fractured lower extremities.
There were no further apparent in
juries.”
Foyt was stabilized at the scene of
the crash, then transported to Mil
waukee County General Hospital,
about 60 miles from the track, by
medical helicopter. His condition
was listed as serious when taken
from the track, but was subsequently
upgraded to satisfactory after an ex
amination at Milwaukee.
Dr. James Stiehl, an orthopedic
surgeon at the hospital, said Foyt
would undergo surgery to repair the
knee injury and would be kept in the
Milwaukee hospital 24-48 hours be
fore being transported to Methodist
Hospital in Indianapolis for further
treatment.

HOUSTON (AP) —Warren Moon finally got the
Houston Oilers’ run-and-shoot offense shooting
straight Sunday.
After two games filled with misfires, Moon wrote
himself into the record book with three touchdown
passes to become the Oilers’ all-time leading passer en
route to a 24-10 victory over Indianapolis (0-3).
The Oilers (1-2) avoided an 0-3 start after the game
started with a fumble by Moon on the Oilers’ first of
fense play.
Moon recovered to complete 29 of 39 passes for 308
yards and touchdowns of 13 and 7 yards to Lorenzo
White and 6 yards to Ernest Givins.
“Really, we needed a win more than I needed to set
any kind of records,” Moon said. “All this means is I’ve
had good receivers and I’ve been here a long time.
“It’ll be something to look back in the record books
when I am older.”
He now has 19,289 career passing yards, erasing the
record set by former Oiler quarterback George Blanda.
“That wasn’t exactly what we had in mind when we
said we wanted a fast start,” Oilers coach Jack Pardee
said of Moon’s early fumble.
“But we got things going in the second quarter, and
that’s what we needed. We’ve been pressing. We
needed to get a little reward for our hard work.'
After both teams spent the first quarter victimi
themselves with mistakes, Moon went to White fori
touchdowns and a 14-0 halftime lead.
The Oilers took advantage of four first-half tin
overs by the Colts —fumbles by Jack Trudeau andClar

Redskins scalp Dallas with eight sack
WASHINGTON (AP) — Playing
with a quarterback who had thrown
only 10 times in the NFL, the Wash
ington Redskins fell back on their
defense to beat the Dallas Cowboys
at home for the first time since 1987.
The Redskins sacked Troy Aik-
man eight times to help set up four
Chip Lohmiller field goals and cor-
nerback Darrell Green scored their
only touchdown with an 18-yard in
terception as Washington beat Dallas
19-15 Sunday.
“This would have been their third
straight win here, and we didn’t
want that to happen,” said defensive
tackle Tracy Rocker, who had one of
the sacks.
The Redskins were relying on
third-year quarterback Stan Hum
phries after Mark Rypien went down
with a severely sprained knee late in
the second quarter and the score tied
at 3.
Rypien and Humphries were a
combined 13-of-30 for 155 yards.
“Thank goodness for the de
fense,” said Washington coach Joe
Gibbs. “They took it upon them
selves and played great. The defense
found a way to make a couple of big
plays for us.”
The Redskins (2-1) won despite
being outgained 234-214 as the
Cowboys held the ball for more than
12 minutes longer and got 19 first
dowuis to Washington’s 11.
But Cowboys quarterback Troy
Aikman could only get the Cowboys
(1-2) into the end zone once, com
pleting 23 of 43 passes for 207 yards
and two big interceptions. He was
sacked by seven different Redskins.

“We felt coming in they were
going to come after us practically ev
ery down,” said Aikman, “and they
just about did that.”
The Cowboys battled within 19-15
and drove to the Washington 40
when Todd Bowles put the game
away by picking off an Aikman pass
over the middle with 1:13 left and
returning it the Dallas 21.
“We all gave a big sigh of relief,”
Green said. “It was anybody’s game
until Bowles made that play.”
Last year, the Cowboys beat
Washington for their only victory of
a 1-15 season.
Down 9-6, Aikman drove the
Cowboys to the Washington 46 be

to fumble in the backfield and

goal with 2:36 left in the third quar
