Gymwomen get by Nebraska
The women's gymnastics team
survived its trip to the Midwest and
added another win to its record
after edging Nebraska by a score of
178.35-178.05 Tuesday night.
Penn State, 9-3, pulled off the
victory after the beam competition.
As the Lady Lions headed into the
final rotation of the meet, they were
only three-tenths of a point ahead of
the Lady Cornhuskers. The pres
sure was on Penn State.
"We had to match their floor
scores," Head Coach Judi Avener
said, "which is really hard to do.
This is the third meet we've had to
win on beam and we really pulled
through."
Freshman Bernadette Robertson

oss good for DePaul, Meyer says
CHICAGO (AP) After 17 straight victories and
gaining the nation's No. 2 ranking, DePaul basketball
Coach Ray Meyer finally got what he wanted the kind of
thrashing that will bring a young squad back to earth.
"When you play like we did, there's no question you
deserve to get beat," Meyer said yesterday, back on the
practice floor one day after a 58-45 loss to St. Joseph's, Pa.
`Tut I think it's a relief to get it out of the way. A lot of the
pressure is off our backs now.

USC, OSU haul in prep stars
By DOUG TUCKER
AP Sports Writer
Southern Cal, Ohio'State and Okla
homa hauled in some of the greatest
prep football stars in the nation yes
terday while Nebraska possibly
damaged by remarks made by Mike
Rozier saw many top recruits slip
away.
Yesterday was the first day high
sehool seniors could sign binding let
ters of intent with colleges and uni
versities. Southern Cal gobbled up
what many consider the No. 1 pros
pects at running back and quar
terback.
Ohio State Coach Earl Bruce looked
over his list of signings and declared
it "a great day," while Oklahoma
took home the top running back in
Oklahoma and the top lineman in
Arkansas.
Practically every school in the na
tion coveted running back Ryan
Knight of Riverside, Calif., and quar
terback-defensive back Willie Peete
of Kansas City, who will both enroll at
Southern Cal. Knight once gained 501
yards in a singlg game this year.
Some coaches believe Peete, a gifted
all-round athlete who will probably be
a No. 1 draft choice in baseball's June
free agent draft, could play wide
receiver for the NFL right away.
Nebraska, which came within a 2-
point conversion of beating Miami in
the Orange Bowl and winning the
national championship, thought two
weeks ago it was-poised championship,,

of its best freshmen classes ever. But
the rumor mill heated up last week
when Rozier, the 1983 Heisman Tro
phy winner, told reporters that while
he played for Nebraska, "I had some
people send me some money. The
alumni helped out."'
This would be a violation of Nation
al Collegiate Athletic Association rul
es. And although Coach . Tom Osborne
and Rozier both subsequently denied
that the program was in danger of
running afoul of the NCAA, rival
recruiters apparently made use of the
rumors to convince some prospects

XIV Olympic Games officially begin
BYFiON YAKE
AP Sports Editor
SARAJEVO, Yugoslavia Swathed in splendor,
the .XIV, Olympic Winter Games officially opened
- eSterday. ,
In an ode to color, culture and tradition, the
opening s ceremonies began when 1,500 athletes
titem 49 countries marched in a magnificent proc
bSsion to the sounds of pop and disco, to Beethoven,
Mozart and Bach.
.They ended with. Yugoslav youths from Army
cadet schools, folk groups, high schools and ballet
frbups bunched in a massive circle, bowing and
waving, paying homage to the Olympic torch as it
was lit in a huge bowl high above Kosevo Stadium.
It is a flame for all to see; for all to know that the
Olympic spirit burns in this city, in this indepen
dent Communist country, and that the Winter
Games have begun.
`The first medals come today, in the men's down

from their miracle of Lake Placid in 1980, lost an
Important game to Canada, 4-2, and now must meet

- Another loss for the U.S. team, and the dream of
a medal will most certainly die.
'One of the Olympics' glamor events, the men's
downhill; takes place at noon on the windy trails of
13jelasnica. It will bring the first gold medal to'
these Games.
Bill Johnson of Van Nuys, Calif:, has been the
!surprise of the men's downhill trials and now has a
',;chance for an even bigger prize.
Johnson won one trial and finished second twice,
including the final trial yesterday. Swiss veteran
Peter Mueller, who crashed here last season and
suffered a neck and shoulder irijury, does not
appear quite the same, but he has won one training
run and finished second-in another and should give
Johnson the most competition.
Others to watch include Pirmin Zurbriggen, a
Swiss giant slalom expert who has never won a
World Cup downhill but who has been consistently
fast in training; Switzerland's Urs Raeber and
Austria's Erwin Resch, who rank 1-2 in this sea

Speed skater Enke best bet
Petruseva strong challenger
SARAJEVO, Yugoslavia CAP)
Karin Enke of East Germany is
the favorite for the gold medal in
the women's 1,500-meter speed
skating race at the Winter Olym
pics today.
Enke, a 22-year-old from Dre§-
den, holds the world record in the
event at 2:03.0 seconds, more than
half a second faster than the
2:04.04 by Soviet veteran Natalya
Petruseva.
Petruseva, 29, the oldest of the
top women competitors, is rated
the strongest challenger to the 5-
foot-9 East German, who turned to
speed skating after she physically
outgrew a figure skating career.
She won a gold medal in the 500-
meter sprint at the Lake Placid
Games four years ago but went for
the longer distances in the mean
time.

German men and women were highly
favored to take top honors in the
Olympic luge competition, which
starts at the Trebevic track outside
Sarajevo today.
The East German women have,
dominated the trials every single day

depth.
The top Americans are Bonny

Martin shattered the record for the
women's course with a fantastic 40.98

gold medal. She has topped the trials
every day since they started last
week.

Andrea Hatle of. West Germany,
