Dr. Charles Burke, the Pittsburgh Penguins’ orthopedist, said “it is way too early” to speculate Lemieux’s ca reer is in danger and challenged published reports the All-Star center has a potentially serious bone dis ease. In a copyright story Thursday, The Pittsburgh Press quoted doctors who said the two-time NHL scoring champion has a form of vertebral os teomyelitis, which damages the bony portion of the spine. The disease can cause debilitating, even crippling pain. Osteomyelitis can be serious, but Burke has hesitated to use the for mal name because, he said, “It’s isn’t a disease, it’s an infection. Mario has what we’ve said all along, a disk in fection that has affected the bone. Nothing has changed. The infection occurred in the fourth lumbar vertebra in Lemieux’s lower back, where he underwent surgery in July to partially remove a herniated disk. Doctors aren’t cer tain if the infection resulted from the surgery or a flu-like condition Lemieux developed several weeks later. Burke has preferred to call Le mieux’s condition as diskitis, an in fection that invades the tissue and cartilage and becomes more serious when it affects the bone. But Burke and Penguins general manager Craig Patrick said they have not been overly optimistic or intentionally evasive about Le mieux’s condition. “In time, we will get the confi dence of the public that what we are saying is true,” Patrick said. “We’ve been upfront. We haven’t held any thing back.” “He doesn’t have a rare disease,” Burke said. “It may be rare statisti cally, but we see it all the time. That’s why we know how to treat it. It is slow growing and invades and grows along.” SWC Relay at P.L. Downs Natatorium The Southwest Conference Re lays, the opening swimming event of the season, will be held today at 4 p m. at P.L. Downs Natatorium, adjacent to DeWare Field House. Teams competing for the men’s title are Texas, Southern Methodist, Texas A&M, Arkan sas, Rice and Texas Christian. On the women’s side the same six schools are joined by the Houston women’s program. “The Southwest Conference Relays are a fun way to open the season and it gives a preview of what each team may have for the rest of the season,” A&M head coach Mel Nash said. “It’s nice to have all of the teams competing in the Southwest Conference on our campus. We have pretty good depth on the men’s side and we should compete. On the women’s side, we have some good quality swimmers but not as much depth.” On Saturday, the Aggies will take on the Razorbacks in th first dual meet of the season begin ning at 11 a.m. at the P.L. Downs Natatorium. There is no charge for attend ing both the SWC Relays or the dual meet with Arkansas. A&M hosts cross country championships The 71st Annual Southwest Conference Men’s and the ninth annual SWC Women’s Cross Country Championships will be on the Texas A&M Golf Course Monday morning, with the women starting things off at 10 a.m. Men’s cross country is domi nated by the Arkansas Razor- backs, who will be going after their 17th straight SWC title. Texas, in 1973, is the last team other than Arkansas to win the ti tle. The No. 2 Razorbacks are un defeated this fall and once again the llth-ranked Longhorns look to be Arkansas’ major competi tion. In the Razorbacks four meets this season, only once has a scoring runner finished outside the top 10. Points are tallied in cross coun try by adding a team’s top five finishers places together, which means the team with the lowest score wins. A&M’s men’s team finished fifth in last year’s championships and took fourth place in last week’s Pre-Conference meet. At that same Pre-Conference meet the Aggie women’s team finished second to Baylor, who will probably contend with Texas and Arkansas for the women’s ti tle. Melissa Weaver took third place in last week’s meet and should compete for top honors Monday. Aggies Continued from page 9 ried after his team’s lackluster per formance last week. “If we go out there against Rice not just wide open and flying around, then we won’t be able to beat them,” Slocum said. “With the ability that Hollas has, they’re a dan gerous team. “They win that Tech game and watch us on film against Baylor and I’m sure they’re licking their chops thinking they’ve got a patsy this week.” Slocum, who’s possibly feeling a little pressure after his team’s 1-2-1 record over the last four weeks, an swered critics earlier this week. “You reach a point where you say nuts to all those people,” he said. “Nuts to the writers, nuts to every body. It’s us. You can hear whatever you want to hear — should throw more, should throw less, should blitz more, should blitz less, should do this, should do that and all that stuff. “Everybody’s entitled to their own opinion, but when it gets down to it, it’s the players and the coaches that make the difference.” Even though the Aggies are trying to come out of a four-game funk, Goldsmith still is concerned about A&M’s offensive firepower. “I still think physically, they are by far the best football team in this con ference,” Goldsmith said. “In the Houston ballgame, they completely dominated. They just had some breaks not go their way.” Goldsmith especially is worried about the Aggie rushing game, which has destroyed the Owls in the past and is averaging 300.7 yards a game this season — fifth in the na tion. “It seems like they gained a mil lion yards on us (last year),” he said. “I wonder how in the world we’ll get those guys stopped. Hopefully, they’ll trip over us.” Rice’s defense, led by linebacker O.J. Brigance, is limiting its opposi tion to 121 yards a game on the ground, but this week they have the task of stopping the “Tank” and the “Bull.” Lewis and Robert Wilson have continued their success even in the midst of the Aggies’ slump. The two have combined for 1,396 yards and 10 touchdowns this season. Should Lewis duplicate his 179-yard perfor mance of last week, he will become the all-time leading SWC rusher. Lewis needs 174 yards to eclipse the 4,4ou compiled by Eric Dicker- son of Southern Methodist (1979- 82). Lewis also is closing in on several other marks. If he rushes for 100 yards in each of his last five games, he will tie Dickerson for the most 100-yard games with 28. With his next 10 rushes, the senior from Dal las Carter will become the all-time SWC leader in carries and he is on pace to finish his career ranked in the NCAA’s career top five rushing list. In three previous games against Rice, Lewis has rushed for 414 yards on 60 carries and five touchdowns, including 201 yards in last year’s 45- 7 rout at Rice Stadium. Elsewhere in the Aggie backfield, the question of who will play quar terback continues. Slocum and offensive coordinator Bob Toledo have said that both Bucky Richardson and Lance Pavlas will play this week. Slocum had said Pavlas would play in the last two games, but the senior from Tomball hasn’t touched the playing field in 11 quarters. “We will definitely play Lance in the game this week,” Slocum said. “I feel badly that I have not gotten him in there. When you try to compare statistically or whatever, their per formances have been similar. “In all fairness to both of them, they both should play and they both will play.” It seems to be the little things that are hindering the Aggies, Slocum said, as the team is ranked No. 1 in the SWC in rushing offense and to tal defense. But the Aggies have made 18 turnovers in their four- game slump. “If we can play a game where we can eliminate the mistakes, then we’ll have a good one,” Slocum said. “No telling what we can do if everything clicks and you don’t have the turn overs.” “We’ve somehow got to get out of this slump or whatever it is we’re in.” Slocum said he’s not panicking and the team must concentrate or fall out of the Cotton Bowl race. “When things don’t go exactly as they’re planned, a lot of people lose focus,” he said. “Organization be comes fragmented. We can’t allow that to happen, and won’t allow that to happen on this team. “We’ve got a lot of our schedule left, and we can still have a good sea son.” Dorm Special • l Medic plus tax Bu< A medium original style cheese pizza and one 12 oz. can of Coca-Coca Classic or Diet Coke for only $4.99 plus tax.
