No% ember 5 197 Women's cross country team pushing for changes By LAURIE KARDON Collegian Sports Writer Many sports clubs, like ice hockey and sailing, have been seeking varsity status to qualify for university financial support. The women's cross country team, in the past a dub, was successful list year. For a team that has just gotten underway, its excellent facilities, solid program and success in meets have been the responsibility of the team's greatest)sset, its coach. Christine Brooks has instituted many changes and is pushing for others that have already impressed many re gional Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) coaches. The most important of these changes is that this year, the women tram year round. Starting the week after fall term began, they ran 6-8 miles a day and are in a program of weight training. A couple flights up and down the steps at Beaver Stadium is also included in practice. The team, since it's only in its first season, suffers mostly from inexperience, but has a core of excellent competitors. Nov. 9 the team will travel to Ithaca, N.Y. to participate in the Cornell Invitational Cross Country Meet. Four schools will be represented: Syracuse, Albany, Penn State and Cornell. However, only 30 women are expected to compete since few women participate in cross country at the college level. Brooks has'decided to travel with the five best on the team: Kristen Bankes, Lila Johns, Mary Loncher, Janet Colton and FOR SALE 41,1 MICHELIN =EI oq.,,tVionarch,etc Unbiased r.comiiitndahonS upon requesl i,% “,11P, Pre Season snow tire 110 W.

"A major problem is many female coaches are back in the 1920's as far as training techniques go, and as most AAU coaches are male, I have to prove myself as a coach,before the girls would be willing to entrust their careers with me," Brooks said. But the AAU coaches that have come into contact with Brooks have been impregsed with her and the facilities offered here,Brooks feels this is a major advantage, and looks for war n° the prospect of experienced rutiners at Penn State in the near future. tendanc's around the league with an average drop of about 4,000 fans per game from last year's record of 58,96 k.

Attendances dropped badly when the veterans were on picket - lines and NFL figures show an over-all average of 36,653 for 78 pre-season games, down by about 18,000 from 1973. Then there was the emergence of the World Football League, which started its season in July when NFL teams were still haggling at the bargaining table with the striking Players Association. Those factors combined with inflation and the liberalized television policy that permits local showing of games sold out 72 hours before kickoff have had an' obvious effect on stadium. attendances. Bad weather kept more , than 22,000 fans away from Chicago's Soldier 'Field for the. Bears' game against the Minnesota .Vikings, and almost 11,000 stayed home in Kansas City where the Chiefs played the New York Giants. A spokesman for the NFL called Sunday's no-shows "another sellout, really." ' The major factor in fans buying tickets for games and then not using those tickets has been television. Sometimes fans can see bett attractions on TV than they can at the local stadium. , In New York, for example, Sunday's game between two have-nots, the Jets and
