AP Photo Deion Sanders, Michael Irvin and Kevin Williams hope to do plenty of celebrating in the end zone at Sunday's Super Bowl XXX in Tempe, AZ. Anderson in limbo while trade transaction stalls □ Hundreds of cheering fans greeted the Dallas team at the airport Monday. TEMF’E, Ariz. (AP) — Maybe the Dallas Cowboys have taken this America’s Team stuff too far. When they arrived in Arizona for the Super Bowl, they were greeted by hundreds of fans at the airport — in a town that has another NFL team, a division rival, no less. At their first news conference of the week, a prime topic was their popularity throughout the nation, the world. Even before the Pitts burgh Steelers, their foes in Sunday’s title game, had shown up Monday night, it seemed as if the AFC champions were forgotten. “You’ve even got true blue Cowboys fans up East,” said safety Bill Bates. “You know they’ve got to be severe, hard-core fans to live up there with the Eagles and the Gi ants. They have to really love you, and that means a lot to us.” It also puts more stress on being a Cow boy; the players have to deal with far more attention, at home and on the road, than most teams. “It says a lot about the character of our team,” said Emmitt Smith, the man the Steel ers must neutralize to have a chance for the championship. “It’s hard to stay focused. Everybody’s got their opinion. It’s easier to jump off the bandwagon.” Adds Troy Aikman, who carries a 9-2 playoff record into his third Super Bowl, “It’s mind-boggling that so many people are interested.” It shouldn’t be surprising, considering how well marketed the Cowboys are. Owner Jerry Jones claims they are second in merchandise sold in every NFL city. Kirkland Continued from page 7 the 400 hurdles at the SWC’s with a time of 1:00.81. At the NCAA Championships, she fin ished second in her preliminary heat with a time of 13.47, which qualified her for the semifinals where she ran a 13.63, good enough for a sixth-place finish. At the SWC indoor meet, she won her preliminary heat in the 55 hurdles with a time of 8.05, but did not advance to the fi nals after posting a 8.48 in the semifinals. What motivates Kirkland to run? “My mom is my motivator,” Kirkland said. “Ever since I started running, she has been my motivation.” Brown said the maternal influence is very evident in Kirkland’s style on and off the track.. “She’s from a good background,” Brown said. “Her mother is very supportive. An- janette is one of those elite individuals who wants to succeed and make contribu tions to society.” She will have a big opportunity to con tribute to society when she runs in the Olympic Trials in June. She will be run ning the 100 hurdles in hopes of qualifying for the Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta in August and September. Brown said that in order for Kirkland to qualify, she will probably have to run a 12.6 or a 12.7. Her best wind-aided time is 12.89. Kirkland got off to a great start for the 1996 season, winning the 55 hurdle event at Saturday’s Sooner Invitational Relays at the Myriad Convention Center in Oklahoma City. After the race, Brown said Kirkland’s greatest ability is her desire. “You’ve got to have a special talent and gift, and Anjanette has it,” Brown said. “We’re proud to have her in our program.” □ The new Charlotte Hornets point guard has been unable to suit up because of medical tests being done on other players. FORT MILL, S.C. (AP) — Would-be Charlotte Hornet Kenny Anderson spent day No. 3 in trade limbo Monday, trying to get as close as he can to a team that’s still not allowed to officially em brace him. “It’s a Catch-22 situation, but I’ve got good vibes about this,” Anderson said after he was reduced to the role of a by stander during the Hornets’ practice. Charlotte acquired Anderson from the New Jersey Nets in a four-player trade Friday. The Hornets, eager to fill a void at point guard, had planned to start Anderson in Saturday night’s home game against Golden State. But 45 minutes before the contest, word came down from New Jersey that the Nets wanted to run more tests on Khalid Reeves, one of the players they got in the deal. Reeves sprained his left ankle on Dec. 11, and New Jersey wants to make sure there’s no significant dam age in the joint. The Nets have been given until Tues day afternoon to complete their tests. Until then, all four players are barred from playing or practicing with their new teams. The Hornets had Sunday off, but when they went through a 90-minute workout Monday, Anderson and reserve guard Gerald Glass, the other player the Nets sent to Charlotte, had to stay on the sidelines. They could dress like Hornets in the team’s standard practice attire. They could speak with their would-be Hornet teammates. They could use the Hornets’ exercise , equipment. / They just couldn’t go out on eitherof the teal and purple courts and take parti in the drills at the team’s practice com plex facility. “I’m just waiting, just waiting it out and working out,” Anderson said. “I’m doing the treadmill, doing the bike. Hopefully, it will all work out for the best.” While he passes the time, Anderson fights thoughts that the deal might not go through, a scenario that is not with out precedent in the NBA. Anderson re members the February 1994 attempted trade of Detroit’s Sean Elliott to Hous ton for Robert Horry and Matt Bullard, a deal that was rescinded after Elliott failed his physical. “1 don’t want to talk about negative things, but you also have to look at what happened with Robert Horry and I f you’re a Business major, we’d like lo show you how our industry-leading Slorc Management Training programs can prepare you for a retail career that’s huiil to last.

Personally, while here at A&M, my teeth are something I have unfortunately ignored, other than the usual brushing and Listerine. I avoid College Station water at all costs, I do not drink much coffee, and I quit smoking cigarettes after I found out it was bad for your lungs. Yet I knew my teeth could be whiter I didn’t know what to do, so I called Dr.. Neal Kruger of Care Plus Clinics and he had the solution to make my pearly whites tmly white. I looked into having my teeth whitened after hearing some promising testimony from friends. Cecilia Felderhoff, Class of 1988, says, “One of my best friends dads is a dentist, and her teeth were’the prettiest I have ever seen. I wanted teeth like hers, so I had my teedi worked on by Dr. Kruger. It really was so easy, and my teeth look so much better.” I made an appointment. Here’s what happened: Paid Advertisement 1. Dr. Kruger explained how the Whitening Program works, and how you can have your top teeth whitened, bottom teeth whitened, or both. 2. Your teeth are modeled for the fitted tray you wear when you sleep, study, or whatever you want to do for a couple of hours. 3. You wear die tray when you fed like it for the next two weeks. Although I was initially hesitant, the process itself is simple, and the results are awesome. My teedi have not been this white since I was in kindeigarten, and it costs much less than you would guess Also, don’t waste your cash on the “store- bought” whitening systems. The results do not compare to professional care. Care Plus Dental Centers 241 IB S.
