Mike Hill’s eagle equals one-stroke win
□ He led after every
round in winning the
Kroger Senior Classic.
MASON, Ohio (AP) — Mike
Hill used an eagle on the par-5
ninth hole to offset two bogeys
on the backside for a one-stroke
victory Sunday in the Kroger Se
nior Classic.
Hill, who led after every
round, shot a 5-under-par 66 for
a 17-under 196 total, two better
than Gibby Gilbert’s tourna
ment-record total in 1992.
Isao Aoki was second and
Graham Marsh was another
stroke back in third, as they
had been after Saturday’s sec
ond round. Aoki and Marsh
shot 65s.
The victory was worth
$135,000 for Hill, who has
made a career on the 6,628-
yard Grizzly Course at The Golf
Center at Kings Island. He
got the last of his three PGA
Tour victories on the course,
winning the Ohio Kings Island
Open in 1977.
Hill’s opening-round 64 imme
diately made him the one to
beat, although perfect weather
and a well-manicured course
produced a bevy of low scores.
After two rounds, 55 of the 78
players were under par. But
Hill’s second-round 66 left little
room for anybody to make a run,
even though Marsh had a tour
nament-record 63 on Saturday.
Hill’s only other victory this
year was in the Legends of Golf
two-man tournament with Lee
Trevino, and he came into the
Kroger ranked 27th on the Se
nior PGA Tour money list.
Sunday’s check boosted his
winnings for the year to nearly
$340,000.
Rocky Thompson had the best
score of the day, a 7-under 64 to
finish at 12-under, along with
J.C. Snead. Ed Sneed was anoth
er stroke back.

Topless bar ads cause All-Star stinl
□ Arlington officials don't want aeri
al banners with the ads flying over
The Ballpark during Tuesday's game.
ARLINGTON (AP) — It all comes down to ex
posure.
Exposure is all nude clubs say they seek with
banners towed by airplanes over The Ballpark at
Arlington during baseball games.
And the exposure offered by the strippers at the
clubs has gotten under the skin of Arlington offi
cials who want the aerial banners stopped.
The banners, which stream across the sky
during Texas Rangers’ home games, inform
fans about movies, restaurants, area bars and
naked dancers.
“Kids will see worse on cable TV,” says Roger
Ward, president and owner of Skyways Advertis
ing, whose planes fly about half of the banners.
“We have no pictures, we have no obscenities.
The worst word we have up there is ‘topless.’”
But that’s enough for the Rangers, the city of
Arlington and U.S. Rep. Joe Barton.
Barton, a conservative Republican from nearby
Ennis, has come up with a stadium statuette that
he introduced to the congressional Committee on
Transportation and Infrastructure.
His bill would require all planes to fly no lower
than 2,000 feet above sea level and no closer Ita
2,000 feet of the ballpark during any publiceveo/
identified by the city.
That’s about 500 feet higher than the current
regulation, which requires that aircraft remainat
least 1,000 feet above the highest obstacle. Emei
gency aircraft would be exempt.
Barton’s bill, similar to a comparable bill into
duced last year that didn’t get out of committee
was introduced after Arlington officials com
plained to the congressman’s office.
If the legislation passes this session, it would!*
the first of its kind, says Greg Juro, an air traff
specialist with the Federal Aviation Administra
tion in Fort Worth.
Advertisers aren’t too concerned about the bill
“Barton’s bill is never going to pass. He’s jus
wasting taxpayers money,” Ward said. “There del
nitely would be a lawsuit if we get banned.”
But Barton won a partial victory last weet
when the FAA imposed a temporary flight restrii
tion for Monday and Tuesday — the day precedir-
and the day of the 66th Annual All-Star Game an'
festivities at the Ballpark.
Arlington Mayor Richard Greene said he's f*
up with the banners.
Jacques Villenueve breezes to
win in Texaco-Havoline 200
□ The 24-year-old Ca
nadian led on all but
three of the 50 laps.
ELKHART LAKE, Wis. (AP)
— Jacques Villeneuve went vir
tually unchallenged Sunday en
route to his second straight
Texaco-Havoline 200 victory at
Road America.
Villeneuve, a 24-year-old Ca
nadian, led all but three of the
50 laps on the four-mile, 14-tum
road circuit in earning his se
ries-leading third victory of the
season and the fourth of his
Indy-car career.
The hard-driving youngster,
whose points for winning the
pole moved him out of a tie for
the PPG Cup lead with Robby
Gordon, built that margin to 22
points, 103-81, over Gordon after
the 10th of 17 races.
Gordon finished out of the
points in 26th with a broken
transmission after having to
start in his backup car because
of electrical problems in the car
he qualified.
“My car was very strong, es
pecially after a few laps when
the fuel went down,” Villeneuve
said. “I never had any problem.”
The sixth caution flag of the
incident-filled race came out on
lap 46 when Brazilian rookie Gil
de Ferran went off-course and
had to have his car removed
from a tire barrier.
That gave Paul Tracy, the
1993 Elkhart winner, one last
shot at Villeneuve in a final two-
lap, green-flag sprint. But the
son of the late Formula One star
Gilles Villeneuve was up to the
challenge, beating Tracy to the
line by 0.97-seconds — about
four car-lengths.
Tracy, who broke his left foot
in a go-kart accident last week,
had problems getting restarted
after both of his pit stops,
stalling the engine as he
tried to get going after the
first one.
“My foot’s really sore,” Tracy
said. “It swelled up a lot during
the race. I had a hard time get
ting out of the pits, but this
feels like a win because we had
to struggle so much all week.”
Jimmy Vasser, who was
awarded his first Indy-car victo
ry two weeks ago at Portland,
Ore., after A1 Unser Jr. was dis
qualified for a technical violation
on his car, finished third, fol
lowed by Brazilian rookie Andre
Ribeiro — his best career finish
— and three-time series champi
on Bobby Rahal.
Michael Andretti and Unser
were knocked out of the race on
the third lap when Unser, com
ing off the devastating disquali
fication with a lot of determina
tion, was overtaking Andretti
and the two banged wheels.
Unser, trying to sweep past
Andretti into fourth place,
moved to the inside of the track
and began to pull alongside at
about 170 mph. Andretti, appar
ently not seeing Unser, moved to
his right.

Continued from Page 3
Here’s a revolutionary
thought: McDermott should
spend less time worrying
about how his stadium fits
into a losing future and work
harder to ensure his team
doesn’t stop winning. If he
does his job, the citizens of
San Antonio will continued
make the Alamodome finan
cially sound.
This situation an example
of what is so appalling about
professional sports today:
They are geared toward the
battle for big bucks, and the
first casualty is usually a
city’s loyalty.
In times of turmoil, sports
teams often are the only
thing citizens can rally
around. They unite citizens
and give them a break from
the hardships of life. Sports
can be a security blanket,
and McDermott has threat
ened to yank that blanket
away, leaving San Antonio
out in the cold.
A classy team would have
waited for the city to recover
from its coming economic
quagmire. An even classier
one would have even done
something drastic, like cut
ticket prices to help the citi
zens get through a tough time
McDermott did neither.
Instead he showed that the
Spurs, while putting a first-
class team on the court, have
a low-class front office.
