Mackovic was 'fired Jan. 8 after special teams coach Frank Gansz resigned and it became known that defensive coordinator Walt Corey was contemplating an offer from the Buffalo Bills. "The firing was precipitated more than anything else by and I won't elaborate any more than this things related to the ability to keep a good coaching staff together," Hunt told the Kansas City Times Florida University will play nine of this year's 11 college football games in the state, the school said.

Counsel James Binn said Tuesday that the vote, taken last week, was based on Hagler's failure to fulfill the WBA requirement that he defend his title within six months.

Hagler's last title defense took place last March when he defeated John Mugabi. "Hagler and his attorney have been notified and he has the right of appeal," Binns said from his office in Philadelphia. Morris Goldings, Hagler's attorney, said in Boston that the committee's vote will be appealed. Hagler is scheduled to fight former welterweight champion Sugar Ray Leonard April 6 in Las Vegas, Nev. The appeal will be taken up by the WBA's 21-man executive board, Binns said American heavyweight James Broad reportedly is refusing to fight former world champion Gerrie Coetzee of South Africa in Pretoria, South Africa, because of a local high school's decision to bar a black youth from a track meet.

The fight, billed as crucial to Coetee's hopes of a comeback, was scheduled for March 21 at Loftus Versfeld, a Pretoria rugby stadium. Coetzee, 31, lost his World Boxing Association heavyweight title in 1984 to American Greg Page. His most recent fight was March 5, 1986, when he was knocked out in the first round by Britain's Frank Bruno, leaving him with a career record of 30-4-1.

British trainer Clive Brittain nominated Bengal Fire and Rumboogie for the Beam Stakes, the premier event at Turfway Park in Florence. Brittain, one of England's top trainers, is a friend of Cauthen's and reportedly is considering having him ride in the Beam Stakes, if Brittain's horses are selected to run in the 12-horse field. NFL management, players union begin collective bargaining talks 1 ABC-TV and Churchill Downs have reached an agreement on extend-fjmt tne contract for the network's fjp coverage of the Kentucky Derby Kill llllTfl Mrt cirr fl -nl DP Bias, fleeing from police on foot, authorities i said. A Hyattsville police officer told Washing- -ton, D.C., television station WUSA that he got a good look at the driver of the car, and said that I the man was Tribble.

Police impounded the i car, a 1979 Mercedes 450-SL, that records show belongs to Tribble. If Tribble wanted the car returned, authorities say, he's going to have to appear in person and face traffic charges of speeding, reckless driving, fleeing and eluding a police officer, and turning off lights to avoid detection. Tribble is awaiting a March trial on cocaine possession and distri- bution charges stemming form Bias' death last June 19 The University of New Mexico is dropping men's baseball and wrestling and women's swimming and basketball from its -athletic program next fall to cut costs, univer- sity president Gerald May said. The New York Express, in its first season in the Major Indoor Soccer league, folded and announced it was filing for protection under Chapter 11. COMPILED BY KATHY SHEEHY Officials representing NFL management and the player's union met, marking the initial step in the lengthy process of forming a new collective bargaining agreement Sports announced last week the network had obtained the rights to provide live coverage of the Derby through 1989.

The network's contract expires after the race this year. Business First, a weekly business newspaper in Louisville, reported this week that one unresolved matter was whether the ABC affiliate in the city, WLKY-TV, would have exclusive rights to the network's local broadcast of the Derby. The Louisville track has required that WHAS-TV, the Louisville CBS affiliate, have access to for the league. The subcommittee on safety and welfare discussed several topics, including proposed counseling programs, and decided to exchange information in the next few weeks, according to NFL Players Association assistant executive director Mark Murphy. The contract between the league's owners and the NFL Players Association expires Aug.

Post 12 was selected as the Hall of Fame's "Team of the Past" for the 1957-66 era. The team was coached by Jack Eassa, assisted by Bill Kirik. James E. "Sonny" Jau-don was the manager. Among the players were pitcher Harry Dahl, who signed a bonus contract with the Dodgers but whose career was cut short by an arm injury; infielders Chuck Peet and Chuck Cone, who played minor-league ball for the Giants and Padres, respectively; Danny Cush-man, later captain of the University of Florida baseball team, and outfielder Dusty Rhodes, who won more than 300 games in eight years as baseball coach at Palm Beach Junior College.

Tickets to the $25-a-plate induction banquet may be purchased from any member of the Hall of Fame Committee or by calling 683-8226. This year's inductees are Marty Gold, Ned Harris, Frank Hobson, John McHale, N.W. "Uncle Mo" Mizell, Spencer Pompey, Jack Sanford and Dr. W.L. Shackelford.

Also being honored are Palm Beach County's Amateur Athlete (Evette Lyman), Professional Athlete (Robby Thompson) and Coach of the Year (Bob Shaw) for 1986 and the Hall of Fame's "Teams of the Past" for the pre-1957 (the unbeaten 1942 Lake Worth High School football team) and 1967-76 (to be announced) eras.
