So far, so good for the San Francisco 49ers, who stand at the edge of achieving the unprecedented. If they beat San Diego on Sunday, the 49ers will be the first NFL team with five Super Bowl titles. They are 19-point favorites to get it. With all those lofty expectations and accompany ing pressures, the 49ers should be wound as tight as the laces on a football. So why are they so loose, so relaxed, so carefree? “We’re one of those teams that right at the beginning of the season, we say, ‘We want to win the Super Bowl,”’ run ning back Ricky Watters said. “That places a tremendous amount of "Pressure is just something we've been dealing with all year." — Ken Norton, San Francisco Linebacker Anybody witnessing an auto - pedestrian accident on Oct. 18, 1994 at the comer of Wellborn Ave. & Joe Routt, please call (210) 426-8070.

We respond to it,” he said. “F*ressure is just something we’ve been dealing with all year,” linebacker Ken Norton added. “Ever since the ownership put this team together and brought the type of players we have here, everyone has expected us to go all the way. That is pressure in itself. “The pressure is part of the game and some thing we’ve been able to play with. It’s been some thing we’ve been able to use to our advantage.” Everything seems to be to San Francisco’s ad vantage this week. The NFC has won 10 straight Super Bowls, three by the 49ers. The Chargers are in their first Super Bowl, and they lost to the Nin- ers 38-15 in December. Nearly all the stars in this game wear 49ers red, gold and white. Steve Young, Jerry Rice, Deion Sanders for starters. Watters, Tim McDonald, Nor ton, too. Ricky Jackson, John Taylor, Brent Jones ... “Players like that know all about dealing with pressure,” coach George Seifert said. “It behooves us to be at our best for the game. Do I have to talk a lot about it? No. Have we talked some about it? Certainly, we have.” While 12 San Francisco players, including eight offensive starters, have been to the Super Bowl, just five Chargers have gotten this far. Two of them, quarterback Stan Humphries and cornerback Darren Carrington, are starters, but neither had any kind of impact in their pre vious trips with other teams. The other Super Bowl veterans are line backer Steve Hendrickson, backup quarterback Gale Gilbert and backup defen sive tackle John Parrella. They also were relative nonentities in previous Su per Bowl appearances. So experience clearly is on San Francisco’s side, too. “They’ve been this far and most of us haven’t,” Chargers tackle Harry Swayne said. “But this team has been very good at taking advan tage of opportunities.” Leslie O’Neal, the Chargers’ Pro Bowl defensive end and their most tenured player, talk about their work ethic. “We’ve worked all year to be in this position, and it was a tremendous amount of work,” he said. “Now we have the opportunity to play that real big game. “Since I came here (in 1986), this is our only complete season. The others, we left it hanging. Now, we have a chance to really make it a com plete and successful season.” Learn To Fiy. TAMU Flying Club. Contact Frank Wells, 764-9056. Inexpensive rates.

SPRING BREAK 95 CANCUN NEW YORK (AP) — Reebok International Ltd. has offered to sponsor the proposed barn storming tour of striking base ball players. The union’s executive board will consider the plan of the sporting goods company when it meets Jan. 31 in Washington. “We have had over the last month-and-a-half or so very substantive, serious discus sions with representatives of the players’ association,” Reebok spokesman Dave Fo- gelson said Monday. Agents were briefed by union officials earlier this month and said all-star games of striking players would take place in different cities each weekend. The prof its of these games would go to charity, and the games would compete for attention with ma jor league games featuring replacement players. “This would offer a viable al ternative until the players re turn to the major league teams,” Fogelson said. Judy Heeter, the union’s di rector of licensing, said she had received about 15 proposals from different sponsors. “We want and the players badly want to give the game back to the fans one way or another,” Heeter said. “If we can’t succeed at the bar gaining table, perhaps we can do it this way.” Heeter said the union still was considering various pro posals but had not made any final decisions. “We’re in some pretty serious discussions right now,” she said. Currently, only 234 players on major league rosters are un der contract. However, teams maintain they have the right to renew the contracts of play ers on their rosters who haven’t signed. “The clubs would take the position that any players under contract would not be able to play in those games,” management lawyer Lou Melendez said. In Washington, Senate Judi ciary Committee spokeswoman Jeanne Lopatto said a hearing into baseball’s antitrust exemption would be conducted by the panel’s subcommittee on antitrust, monopolies and business rights. The subcommittee chairman is South Carolina Republican Strom Thurmond.

By building a strong gymnastics program, A&M could recruit the prospects not wanting to leave out of state. Then comes the one thing we all want, but rarely ever have, MONEY! First, a facility for these sports. How about G. Rol- lie White Coliseum? What else is the Athletic Department going to do with the Holler House? If nothing, then wrestling and gymnastics would seem like the perfect palace for those sports. Some may ask, how will we pay for the addition of these sports. That’s the hard part. The only reasonable solution I have is to raise the ticket prices on all athletic events. Just imagine how much money the athletic department would receive if they raised the ticket prices by $1. Your one dollar could bring a “can’t miss” wrestling prospect or a “superstar” gymnast to Aggieland. I know I would be willing to pay an extra dol lar to every athletic event if this would help expand our athletic program. I know it’s hard to imagine ol’ Roc in a tight wrestling outfit looking like one of the Steiner Brothers. However, I believe wrestling would get the support from the students and Texas A&M would become an elite na tional program, just like our fu ture foes in the Big 8. LAUSANNE, Switzer land (AP) — Salt Lake City is already talking like winner in the race for the 2002 Winter Olympics. As the established front runner. Salt Lake City is virtually certain of making the cut Tuesday when the International Olympic Committee selects four fi nalists from the record field of nine candidates. The other likely finalists are Ostersund, Sweden; Quebec, and Sion, Switzer land. The winner will be selected by the full IOC in Budapest, Hungary, on June 16. Salt Lake City is bid ding for the fourth time in 30 years. Four years ago, the city narrowly lost to Nagano, Japan, for the right to host the 1998 Win ter Games Tom Welch, heading the Salt Lake effort for the sec ond straight time, said Monday that the city de serves to be selected this time because it has com pleted all the venues and projects it promised during the previous bid. “We talked the talk in the last campaign,” Welch said. “Since then, we walked the walk ... In 1991, we had great plans. In 1996, we have made these plans sporting reality. “We have fulfilled every commitment we have made. I believe that ought to be and will be recog nized by the IOC. I have every reason to believe that we will be rewarded by the IOC in June.” If Salt Lake City loses, however, Welch ruled out another bid for the 2006 Games.
