"On the question of titles and medals, that we feel
needs more discussion."
Meaning, if the proposal is adopted, Johnson would
We his world records of 9.83 seconds in the 100 and 6.41
seconds in the 60 but remain champion of the two 1987
world title meets where he set the marks the World
Track and Field Championships in Rome and the
World Indoor Track and Field Championships in Indi
anapolis.
Johnson also holds world-best times in the indoor 50
yards and 50'meters, but the lAAF does not consider
those distances for world records. Likewise, two other
Canadian athletes who admitted drug use, Mark McK
oy and Angela Issejenko, hold world bests in sprint
hurdle races not considered world records.
All of their testimony came at a Canadian govern
ment bearing into drug use in sports, called after John
son was nabbed for steroid use in Seoul and stripped
of his gold medal and world-record 9.79 time. Lewis
got the gold medal after finishing second in 9.92, which
would be the new record if the change is adopted.
"Of course we will do this for Carl," said Frank
Greenberg, president of The Athletics Congress, the
American track governing body, which is supporting
the move. "We are fighting for the guy. We'll fight to
the max."

the other team. Second, Newman thinks
Penn State must take advantage of
opportunities inside the circle and cre
ate corners, which set up scoring oppor
tunities.
To accomplish these goals, the Lady
Lions have undergone rigorous work
outs, a fitness program over the sum
mer and countless hours of drillwork.
"I'm really enthusiastic," goalkeeper
Michele Brennan said. "Each and every
one of us knows ( the training) is going
to pay off. Last year it took us a while.
This year, the first day was like the
fourth week last year. Our attitude real
ly showed. We've learned to strive big
time."
The season begins this afternoon with
a scrimmage against Lock Haven.
While most positions have been settled,
some are still up for grabs.
The honor of starting in goal most
likely will be given to Brennan, who
played in 21 games last season. With a
save percentage of .880 and a goals
against-average of 1.008, the sophomore
must be considered the favorite.
Yet senior veteran Connie Ehresman,
the starter in 1987, also is in the running,
according to the coach.
"We're fortunate to have two good
goalies in our program, which not a lot
of teams can boast about," Newman
said.
On defense, the question marks
abound. With Radziftski gone, the only
sure lock is captain Kathy Klein as
anchor of the group. The other positions
have to be earned.
"Our defense is not tough enough,"
Newman said. "We need to mark ( bet
ter) and be more aggressive. We need
to get three players to do this. It's up in
the air, the defense has not been set.

"Hopefully the players involved will
step out. Those stronger in that position
will play. Last year we had a similar sit
uation, but it worked out."
One of those players battling for the
job is junior Tracy Shilkret, who played
in 13 games in 1988. She sees the situa
tion as something that will improve.
"People are going to make mistakes,
but we don't worry about it because (it
will) come back," she said.
Three starters return at midfield
Joines on the right (one goal, one assist
in 1988), Kristen Winters in the middle
(four goals, two assists) and Kidder on
the left ( three goals, two assists).
Newman says the midfield line will be
strong and because of its experience, all
three players will play key roles. She
added that it will have to be flexible
because in some games the trio will
need to play more defensively, while in
others, offense will be key.
On the forward line, three sopho
mores have the task of providing a scor
ing punch. Susann Bisignario, Eleanor
Stone and Chelle Frates come into the
lineup fresh from a summer at the
Olympian Developmental `A' Camp.
Newman said that the camp experi
ence should help because in the past she
has looked at opponents and said "Look,
this girl's on A Camp."
All the answers must be decided
before the Lady Lions take to the road
this weekend to face defending national
champion Old Dominion, followed by
Duke on Sunday.
While an official poll has yet to be
released, Penn State is picked to be a
top-10 team. A new and experimental
"power-rating" system judging
strength of schedule will be imple
mented this fall.

Johnson testified that he first took steroids in 1981
and used them in massive doses in the buildup to the
Rome world championships. His testimony was
enough to convince the lAAF leaders that they had to
use new tactics in fighting drugs.
"What has constituted a doping offense up to now
has been a positive sample," Ljundqvist said. "Now
we see another way admissions under oath and
we feel we must be able to interfere."
Another council member, Hassan Agabani of the
Sudan, said the step was a "punitive measure" but
necessary.
"If we see someone establish a record and he is
wind-assisted, we say, 'No,' " Agabani said. "Then
how can we allow a person who used drugs to hold a
record?"
Others, however, said Johnson was a scapegoat.
"Kicking Ben Johnson isn't the answer. That's just
one athlete," said Herb McKinley, a 1952 Olympic gold
medalist in the 900 and a leader of Jamaica's track
federation. "Every country is fighting to protect its
own."

said stripping Johnson of the world record would be
"ridiculous and unfair."
Cecil Smith, executive director of the Ontario Track
and Field Federation, said the Canadian delegation
would defend Johnson in debate on the measure.
"It won't be a clearcut vote," he said. "But the
effects don't stop with 1988. You keep going, and where
does it stop? It's not just Ben."
As originally written, the proposal to strip records
could have encountered problems involving retroac
tivity, since it was not on the books when Johnson con
fessed. The council, therefore, based its action on the
annual record reviews.
The change in tactics additionally moved the propo
sal into a section of lAAF bylaws requiring only a sim
ple majority rather than a two-thirds vote as the
original wording would have, according to federation
general secretary John Holt.
The council also endorsed a slight softening of
track's drug penalties. It would impose three-month
instead of two-year suspensions on first-time users of
all drugs except steroids, hormones, amphetamines,
cocaine and substances used to hide doping known as
"masking agents." Current rules impose two-year
bans for first-time use for all drugs except ephedrine,
a stimulant found in many non-prescription cold reme
dies.

and defensive end Garin Veris, both
of whom had knee surgery Saturday,
also went on IR.
Under the new rules, none can
return this season.
As usual, it was a bad day for vet
erans as well as rookies.
Among the name players waived
were one-time All-Pro wide receiver
Cris Collinsworth of Cincinnati and
the Bengals' 10-year placekicker,
Jim Breech, along with a half-dozen
Denver Broncos who played key
roles on their two Super Bowl teams.
Included in that group were wide
receiver Steve Watson and running
back Gerald Willhite.
Another player from those Denver
teams, linebacker Ricky Hunley,
was cut by the Cardinals. Hunley,
obtained in a trade last year, was
expected to be Phoenix' starting
middle linebacker but missed 12
days in a contract dispute and
played poorly in preseason.
Kansas City, meanwhile, cut Paul
Palmer, its No. 1 draft pick in 1987.
Palmer, runner up to Vinny Testa
verde for the 1986 Heisman Trophy
after rushing for 1,866 yards at
Temple, was the' second-leading
rusher and receiver for the Chiefs
last year and led the AFC in kickoff
returns as a rookie.
Morris and Tipped may have been
victims of the new injured reserve
rules. Brian Washington, who
started 14 of 16 games at free safety
for Cleveland last year, also went on
the list with a broken nose and elbow
injury; Miami put placekicker Fuad
Reveiz on the list, and Buffalo lost
all-purpose running back Robb Rid
dick the same way.
Unlike previous seasons, when
players placed on IR before the final
cuts could have been activated after
six games if healthy, those now inac
tivated before the 47-man limit is
established can't be activated during
the season or practice with the team

"It's hard coming home from prac
tice then studying," said Skorpen, Penn
State's sixth ranked all-time scorer. "I
study first then go out with friends."
"The key to doing well academically
is reviewing after each class and being
familiar with what is going on," Wytten
bach said.
Soccer player Thomas Ageson (3.44,
business administration), basketball
player Dave Degitz (3.23, division of
undergraduate studies) and baseball
players Mike Killough (3.29, finance)
and Matt Merkle (3.27, mechanical
engineering) also achieved honorable
mention.
unless they go through waivers.
Thus rookie quarterback Rodney
Peete of Detroit, who would have
been the Lions' starter, was kept on
the roster though his sprained left
knee will keep him out three to five
weeks.
Giants Coach Bill Parcells said
Morris was placed on IR because he
wouldn't be ready until December.
"When you lose a I,oooyard rush
er it's not good news," Parcells said.
"It's a blow to us."
Still, the loss of Morris, who gained
1,083 yards for just a 3.5 average last
season, may be less damaging than
it might have been in the past. Par
cells is planning to use a one-back
offense more often, a scheme more
suited to Ottis Anderson, Lee Rou
son, George Adams and rookie
Lewis Tillman than to Morris.
There were other casualties
among name players as the league's
28 teams got down to the regular
season limit.
Many of those cut, however, could
be brought back quickly as teams
manuever with the injured reserve
list.
The Eagles waived Reggie Sin
gletary and Matt Patchan, offensive
linemen; Derek Holloway, Anthony
Edwards and William Osborn, wide
receivers; Lakei Heimuli, running
back; David Bailey and Donald
Evans, defensive ends; Joe Schus
ter, defensive tackle; Dwayne Jiles,
linebacker; Paul Berardelli, offen
sive guard; and Alan Dial and
Tyrone Jones, safeties.
Pittsburgh cut Lester Brinkley,
defensive end; Tracy Simien, line
backer; Carlton Haselrig and Chris
Asbeck, nose tackles; John O'Neill
and John Stroia, offensive linemen;
Cornell Gowdy, safety; Preston
Gothard, tight end; Charles Lockett,
Eric Wilkerson and Mark Stock,
wide receivers; and Rick Storm,
quarterback.
