8 THE DAILY TIMES Salisbury, Md.Sat.Jan.t5, 1983 Tabb Best Athlete Ot Year Choice NFL Playoff Scbedn! If Tabb doesn't get injured, she probably will try to qualify for the U.S. team in the 1,500 and 3,000, the longest Olympic races on the track for women. She plans to run both those races as an experiment in the inaugural World Championships at Helsinki, inland, Aug 7-14 "I think my best bet forOlympIc gold is the 3,000 she said. "I would double in the 5,000 and 10,000 if I could. "They (Olympic officials) said they would try to put In the 5,000 and 10,000 for the '88 Games," added Tabb.

"I would like to help Inaugurate those events in the Olympics. i "I think it's ridiculous the way the International Olympic Committee has handled women's track. Until last year, they used to say 3,000 meters was too strenuous for women. Now, there will be a women marathon in the Olympics), but they leave out a 5,000. "I promise you, the IOC will see some incredible times in the 3,000 and will take us (women) more seriously In the future." In tennis in 1982, Navratilova earned a single-season record $1,475,055 for winning 90 of 93 matches, Including the Wimbledon, French Open and U.S.

For the year, she was ranked No. 1 In the world In the 5,000 and 10,000, and No. 1 in the United States in those events, plus the 800, 1,500 and No other American woman's distance runner ever has been so versatile and so good. Still, the fact that she has yet to compete in the Olympic Games continues to haunt the 24-year-old Tabb. In 1972, she was fast enough but too young.

In 1976, she was old enough, but Injuries shin splints and stress fractures kept her from even running In the U. S. Olympic Trials. In 1980, she won the race during the Trials at Eugene, but because of the United States' boycott of the Games over the Soviet Union's military Intervention In Afghanistan, the Americans didn't send a team to Moscow. Since then, the Injury-plagued Tabb has been pointing toward the 1984 Games and Los Angeles.

"This one Is in my hometown, so to speak, since I started my career in Southern California," she said. "There should be a lot of friendly faces and a lot of support. If I don't get injured NEW YORK AP) In the summer of 1982, two years before the Summer Olympic Games at Los Angeles, a television crew was in Eugene, filming a lot of footage of Mary Decker Tabb.
