Van Exel will be making the trip to the game with his close friend Jones. “If they hadn’t voted me on and not voted Nick on, 1 might have been disappointed,” Jones said. “It’s a relief to see him honored. He’s been one of the top guards in the Western Conference since I’ve been here.” The last team to have four play ers in the game was Philadelphia, with Julius Erving, Moses Malone, Maurice Cheeks and Andrew Toney on the Eastern Conference team 15 years ago. The four Lakers will play for the Western Conference team against the East in the Feb. 8 game in Madi son Square Garden. Other reserves added to the West roster were San Antonio forward Tim Duncan, the only rookie on ei ther squad, and his teammate, cen ter David Robinson; forward Vin Baker of Seattle; and guards Mitch Richmond of Sacramento and Ja son Kidd of Phoenix. Selected as East reserves were guard Reggie Miller and center Rik Smits of Indiana, center-forward Jayson Williams of New Jersey, for wards Glen Rice of Charlotte and Antoine Walker of Boston and guardsTim Hardaway of Miami and Steve Smith of Atlanta. The 14 reserves wer the teams by avoteofi in each conference.

M Donahue tops Dallas coach IRVING, (AP) — Not since Tom Landry was hired in 1960 have the Dallas Cowboys gone this long with out a head coach. Tuesday marked the 18th day since Barry Switzer’s resignation statement was read at a news con ference by owner Jerry Jones and a replacement has yet to be named. When Jones fired Landry, he im mediately hired Jimmy Johnson. When Johnson got his $2 million resignation check, Jones hired Switzer a day later. Jones has twice interviewed former San Francisco coach George Seifert and former UCLA coach Terry Donahue. He also has interviewed Green Bay offensive coordinator Sherman Lewis and he has a strong interest in Brian Billick of the Minnesota Vikings as offensive coordinator. Jones didn’t name his new coach Super Bowl week as a few predicted he would, but he made sure his mileage was a tax write-off. He in terviewed Seifert, Donahue and Lewis the day after the Super Bowl in San Diego. He previously had interviewed Donahue in Dallas and Seifert in San Diego. Jones made three trips between the cities last week. Someone who did not get inter viewed although he was in San Diego was Denver Broncos offen sive coordinator Gary Kubiak. Jones was working the tele phones again Tuesday, but was not disclosing where he was mak ing the calls. Jones could be looking for a package deal. Seifert’s strong suit at San Francisco was defense and Donahue was a college coach for 20 years. Both need a strong offensive coordinator and that could be Bil- in Q ki«i»«m»iT w those Food one/ D/n Specials 20% off Any Fruit Brink Choose from iM/STmany flavors like: Strawberry, RasnlMrn, *1 du, Passion Fruit, *.
