I 0 mvvmwwr gj 't'T World Series Minneapolis Tribune 3Q 10, 1978 Continued from page 1C ff High School sports Sue Barker advances in tennis meet Bruce Brothers ful sign for those hoping the Dodgers can turn around last year's six-game series loss. Another hope is the injured hamstring of Yankees second baseman Willie Randolph. Whether he will play today and whether he will be a base-stealing threat if he does are mysteries. And while Lemon points to the addition of reliever Rich Gossage as a vital improvement, he chooses to ignore the loss of Don Gullett and Mike Torrez. Gullett, now disabled, and Torrez, a free agent gone to Boston, were the starters in three of the Yankees' victories in last year's Series.

Torrez won two games and Gullett pitched well but got no decision as the Yankees won the first Ed Figueroa, who didn't pitch in last year's Series, will start for the Yankees tonight. Catfish Hunter probably will start the second game, although his tender shoulder prevents certainty. over," he said. "I can't say whether we would have won it without him, but you're a better team when you have that pulling together and the feeling of unity." Garvey, asked about his fight with Sutton "the Garvey-Sutton so-called confrontation," he called it said, "Whatever residue it left has been a positive force for us. At that point of the season we may have needed a push." Teammate Bill North, who knows what real dissension is after playing for Oakland, said, "This is a totally relaxing atmosphere.

The guys don't fight all the time just five or six times a day." North doesn't think all the talk about the suddenly sedate Yankees means a lot. "They're more awesome than us," he said, "but we're more unified. Everybody has a facet everybody has a job to do and they do it." Good news for word watchers: The term "super," which has been forced to function as Jock Culture's only superlative for the last two years, may be going the way of the Nehru jacket, George Scott and Metropolitan Stadium. At a press conference featuring Lasorda, Lemon, Garvey and Jackson, only one "super" was heard. The perpetrator was Lasorda.

Major league baseball cannot be accused of overreacting to the recent court ruling in New York requiring that women reporters have equal access to locker rooms. Reporters were Issued cards yesterday entitling them to free meals courtesy of professional baseball. The cards specified that most of the breakfasts and dinners were stag. After mention of two dinners, however, the cards said, "Wives invited." Members of both teams insisted yesterday that their psychological state is better than ever. It would have been tacky for the Yankees to suggest that the reason was Billy Martin who left them 10 games behind Boston but there were little hints.

Lemon, of course, insisted that the Yankees could have won it without him. But, then, that's the very attitude that his partisans say is the reason that the Yankees couldn't have won it without him. Jackson, who has no uncharred bridges, left a little unfilled space between the lines but made his point "The bail club needed to be settled when Bob Lemon took Don't expect a lot of scoring in the early innings tonight. Television's prime time isn't the prime time for hitting, but that won't stop the game from starting about 5:30 p.m. California time (7:30 in Minneapolis).

That means that the first three innings or so will be played at dusk, when hitters say they don't see the ball very well. Those who like to avoid hyperbole, pregame introductions and Joe Garagiola anecdotes should be advised that while the telecast is set for 7 p.m. Minneapolis time, the game itself is set to begin at 7:30. The actual start may depend on whether Toni Tennille can exercise restraint when she sings the national anthem. you say you found yourself back in the high school football coaching business three days before the beginning of practice this fall, with practically no staff on hand, and at a school with no junior high program, Bunkie? You say you had to boot about a dozen players off the squad, players with talent, for simple indiscretions such as not showing up at practice? And then one starter broke his thumb and another broke both his legs? you say that fum-bles and youthful mistakes have kept your team from winning any games in six attempts? you say you've been on and off crutches because of a two-year-old knee injury, and it's getting worse? Is that what's bothering you, Buhkie? Don't feel bad.

Larry Hartse, who is in the same boat, wore a wide smile Monday. Put a mark behind Larry Hartse's name for determination. A lesser man might not have survived the first week of the 1978 football season at North High School. Hartse, on the other hand, is keyed up for Friday's game against Minneapolis Central and already is looking forward to next season, as well. Hartse, 37, has been teaching at North for 12 years.

The former University of Minnesota football standout began coaching in boys' gymnastics and later moved to track and hockey. He was an assistant football coach at North for eight years, "but I got tired," he said. "I didn't have anything left to give to the kids." What drove Hartse out of football were many of the same problems he has encountered this year as head coach: There is no youth program for pre-North High School players, so they must learn from scratch; basketball players refuse en masse to risk injury in football (only one basketball prospect is on this year's football team); players sometimes view practice only from afar. Hartse is changing that slowly. "I've had players come up to me and express appreciation that we hired Hartse," said Lee Snell, the North athletic director.

Things have not been easy, as shown by North's 0-6 record. The Polars have scored 14 points and given up 192. Scoreboard Sue Barker of Great Britain broke service six times in defeating Lesley Hunt of Australia 6-4, 6-2 Monday night in the first round of the $100,000 U.S. women's indoor tennis championships at Metropolitan Sports Center. But Barker, 22, who was rated fourth in the world 18 months ago only to.

slip to 21st, has not been happy with her play over the last year. "I lost my confidence last year," Barker said. "I took three months off after Forest Hills last year. I suffered from anemia. I had played 18 straight months and I probably played in the second most tournaments of anyone.

Then when I came back Chrissie (Evert) and Billie Jean (King) killed me and that just shattered me. "Tonight my serve was better than ever. But I haven't been hitting my forehand with.any authority."

It's just that you don't find the opportunity to interrelate with them. They're the elite 32 seeds. They're not around you." Tomorrow night, unless Jordan surprises everyone, Potter will be facing one of 'them'.

For the first time. "Against Navratilova I really don't have any specific strategy yet," Potter said. "I'll have to do my best. Against players like her it's not important to worry exactly what they do but to worry about what I do. I'm going to have to concentrate on every point." For Chris Evert, yesterday was different.

She was already planning to meet Navratilova Saturday, assuming defeat for Jordan, Potter and two other Navratilova victims and victory for herself through the week. She practiced, getting back "into the swing of things" after a week's rest from tennis. She spoke naturally of victory. When told that the U.S. women's Indoors was the only "major" tournament she'd never won, Evert said casually, "I hadn't thought about it, but now that you bring it up maybe I'll have to win It." She spoke of dwindling incentives, of having no challenge, of dominating women's tennis last year.

"After a while it got routine," she said. And then, amazingly, she spoke of getting old, of playing a 15-year-old Austin or a 16-year-old Shriver. "It's psychologically very difficult for the older players to play them," said Evert, who'll turn 24 Dec. 21. "Now the shoe's on the other foot I used to play Billie Jean (King) and Margaret Court and these players who are 10 years older than I.

Now I'm playing 15- and 16-year-old girls and it's-tough. I've always been a youngster and now I'm not."

What we're trying to do is to get the kids to believe in themselves and in each other. "One of our backs fumbled three times last week, and after we took him out in the second half he was in tears on the sideline.

He didn't tell us until after the game that he had an injured hand that was all swollen, because he wanted to play. That's what some of the kids we've got left are made of." One of the biggest problems Hartse faced came early. "Our kids here have seen for a few years that if they're good enough, you play whether you come to practice or not," he said. "That's what we're trying to change." So Hartse cut some players. Then he cut some more.

The roster of 34 now includes only seven seniors. "Most of the kids who are out now are willing to pay a little price to play the game." he said. "We lose and their friends make fun of them, but they're still out." Hartse has had other problems from the beginning. Ben McCoy, coach for the previous three years, lost his teaching job because of enrollment decline. He planned to teach elsewhere and still coach at North, but it did not work out and he left for a job in Florida late in the summer.

Snell turned to Hartse. "I came back in town from vacation and that's when they notified me, the week before practice started," Hartse said. "We hadn't had any meetings, set up captains' practices or anything. Our coaching staff wasn't set until the third week of the season." Hartse started with Dick Chakolis as his lone assistant. He picked up Kreg Kapitan, the manager of the Uptown Bar who has teaching and coaching certificates, as an assistant.

Tony Queen, North's basketball coach who handles the sophomore football team, tore ligaments in his knee during the first week and was coaching from a wheel chair. Ed McGowan, Henry's hockey coach, came over to help with the sophomore team during the third week. On top of that, North's field was fertilized the week before the -first game and the team had to work out elsewhere. Then the automatic sprinkler system on the field began working overtime and the first game, despite a week of sunshine, was played in the mud. North lost five fumbles, two interceptions and one decision, by a 14-8 score to South.

If that wasn't enough, Hartse's knee began acting up. He tore ligaments and cartilage two years ago and one year ago he had an operation. He was in a cast for eight weeks. This fall the knee started swelling. Hartse has missed two weeks of teaching, but has the doctor's permission to coach if he remains on crutches and keeps his weight off the knee.

Hartse leaned his crutches against the wall, plopped into a chair in North's coaching office yesterday and draped his leg over the corner of a desk. "Yeah, I'm optimistic," he said. "Sometimes to get somewhere you have to go back and start from zero. We did, and we're on our way."

Chambers takes over a team that measures its losing streak in years rather than games.

haven't won in three years. I don't like to think about the number; it's pretty painful," said Mel Grim-stead, Edison principal who made the announcement yesterday.) John Nefstead resigned after last year, leaving a record of 61 consecutive defeats for the Tommies. Edison has not won a basketball game since 1975. "We're going to try to make that change, to turn the corner," Chambers said. "I feel it's more an opportunity than a challenge.

We'll work on personalities and attitudes. I'm a fundamentalist. We'll stress the basics. My goal is to have at least a .500 season, but I'm sure we can do better." Chambers, 33, was all-state in football and basketball at Jeffersonville (Ind.) High School. He played forward and center and was all-conference at Dickinson (N.D.) State College, then coached one year at North and Vocational.

He moved to Edison from Sheridan Junior High this year.

Lausanne, Switzerland The International Olympic Committee (IOC) voted 74-3 Monday for final approval for Los Angeles to stage the 1984 summer Olympic Games.

The special mail ballot among IOC members, which also drew eight abstentions, approved a decision by the executive board in August that had recommended acceptance of Los Angeles's plan to hold and finance the Games. "This is fantastic news," said Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley. "It's a major achievement for the thousands of people who were involved in the effort to return the Olympics to Los Angeles for the past 30 years. I'm very pleased that we have been able to secure the 1984 Olympics on our terms without financial responsibility falling to the city or the people of Los Angeles." Recommendation to approve the signing of two contracts enabling Los Angeles to stage tje Games was given Aug. 31 by IOC President Lord Killanin but he said at the time that the decision could only be final if IOC members ratified it by a mail vote before Oct.

7. The granting of the Games to Los Angeles ended months of talks between officials of the city, the IOC and the U.S. Olympic Committee (USOC) over the drafting of a contract acceptable to all parties. "I've been very hopeful since the whole thing started," Bradley said. "There have been many ups and downs.

Now we're finally on the downhill road. The only way to lose them now is for us to give them away." Football CFL RESULTS MONDAY Hamilton 25, Ottawa 5 British Columbia 15, Edmonton 3.
