Pitt's Cummings to start
against Tennessee Saturday
in tough grid assignment
By ALAN ROBINSON
AP Sports Writer
PITTSBURGH He's thrown only
two passes in college and nobody is
comparing him to Dan Marino, but
John Cummings will be the Universi
ty of Pittsburgh's quarterback Satur
day against Tennessee.
Pitt Coach Foge Fazio readily ad
mits that playing in Knoxville, with
its 92,000 screaming, orange-clad Vol
unteer fans, won't exactly be the
easiest of opening day assignments
for his junior quarterback.
"Naturally, there are 100 better
places to go than the University of
Tennessee," Fazio said. "However,
that's the way the game fdlls on the
schedule, so we'll go down there and
play it."
And they'll play it with Cummings,
only a third teamer a season ago, at
quarterback.
But while Cummings lacks experi
ence and doesn't pack the rifle-like
right arm that Marino did, he doesn't
lack in confidence, a vital necessity
for a player in his position.
"Nobody is considering me as one
of the top quarterbacks," Cummings
said. "But I want to get better and be
one of the best all-around quar
terbacks. The only thing I don't have
is experience."
Last year, Fazio so lacked in confi
dence in his back-up quarterbacks
that Marino played all but a few
downs in a 9-3 season. Cummings
tried only two passes all season,
completing one for 13 yards.
"I'm not exactly sure what to ex
pect, but I expect a good season,"

said the 6-2, 190-pound Cummings,
from Montclair, N.J. "I shouldn't be
the quarterback if I'm not optimistic.
And I'm very optimistic. I think we
can have a heck of a season."
The Associated Press pollsters
don't agree. The pre-season No. 1
choice last year, Pitt isn't even men
tioned in this season's initial Top 20
poll.
Some publications have even
picked Pitt for its first losing season
in a decade, and the lack of depth or
experience at quarterback is one of
the reasons why.
"But I don't think I have a lot of
faults," said Cummings, who played
well in the Panthers' final two pre
season scrimmages.
"I don't have a lot of experience.
But I think I have a good arm, a little
bit of speed and good knowledge of
the game."
Cummings said he isn't "a rah-rah
guy," but won't hestitate to "pass on
a few words of wisdom in the huddle
every now and then," just as Marino
would.
Fazio said that if he didn't believe
Cummings could do the . job, he
wouldn't be starting.
"I don't have a feel for this team
yet," he said. "It's too early. But this
team has a lot to prove. They're not
picking us for the Top 20, and now we
have to go out and carry on Pitt's
tradition."
Cummings will be satisfied with
carrying on the tradition of Marino, a
first round draft choice of the Miami
Dolphins and the leading passer in
Pitt history.

Pan-Am po liti cs affect future
Issues may overshadow sports
in 1984's Olympic competition
By LARRY SIDDONS
AP Sports Writer
CARACAS, Venezuela The IX
Pan American Games may have
more of an impact on the 1984
Olympics through politics and ad
ministration than athletics.
The games, which officially
ended with closing ceremonies
last night, are designed to do two
things promote sportsmanship
and cooperation among the na
tions of the Western Hemisphere
and help get their athletes ready
for the Summer Olympics the next
year.
Competition generally was of
high quality at the Caracas
championships. There were five
world records and dozens of Pan
Am marks established, and the
United States got a good look at
some competitors who certainly
will be stars in Los Angeles in 'B4
such as Cuban gymnast Casimi
ro Suarez, the individual gold
medal champion of Pan Am 'B3,
with six.
But in America's long-range
planning for hosting its first Sum
mer Games since 1932, the most
significant development in Cara
cas might have dealt not with lap
times or knockouts, but with a gas
chronometer and a mass spectro
graph.
Those machines, looking some
what like a pair of microwave
ovens, were the centerpieces of a
The
.-erinsylvania State University
Resident Theatre Company
state-of-the-art laboratory that
conducted the biggest crackdown
on drug use ever in international
sports.
16 athletes 11 weightlifters, a
cyclist, a fencer, two track men
and a volleyball player —were
found to have illegal substances in
their systems. In 12 of the cases,
the drug was anabolic steroids
synthetic hormones which can add
muscle bulk and, thus, increase
strength, but which also have been
found to have shattering side-ef
fects, including sterility.
Of the athletes cited for drug
use, 10 were medalists, and they
were stripped of their prizes. One,
Cuban weightlifter Daniel Nunez,
also lost a world record he had set
in the snatch while sweeping the
132-pound class. He and 14 others
had their names and medical re
cords sent to national Olympic
committees and international
sports federations for possible
sanctions including suspensions
from competition that, officials
said, are likely to extend through
the 1984 Olympics.
Among the weightlifters nabbed
for steroids was Jeff Michels, a
gold-medalist in the 243-pound
class, from Chicago. The head of
his national sports federation,
Murray Levin, said the positive
test for steroids would automat
ically keep Michels out of the
Olympics next year.
