The Red Rolfe Division will be comprised of Dartmouth, Brown, Harvard and Yale.

Making up the Lou Gehrig Division are Columbia, Cornell, Pennsylvania and Princeton. was, he said, Is this really Joe Gibbs? Gibbs said. And I said, I cant believe Im talking to Jimmy Johnson. Jarrett, 36, who lives in Hickory, N.C., is the son of Ned Jarrett, a two-time NASCAR champion who never won this race. The winners father was one of the announcers on CBS race telecast.

Ned Jarrett said that when his son took the lead, Bob Stenner, the producer of the telecast, told him to show his emotions. He said, Root him on, root him on, Jarrett said. And he did. Jarrett won $238,200. His average speed was 154.972 mph.

It was a tightly contested race all day, with 38 lead changes among 13 drivers. But Jarretts car came into its own, crew chief Jimmy Makar said, after four tires were changed and a small chassis adjustment was made on lap 130. The change made the car too loose, Makar said, meaning the back end wanted to come up on the banking, but it was awful fast, too. So Dale just changed his driving style. Earnhardt, meanwhile, came into this race dominating the preliminaries, as he did in 1990 and 1991.

But as in those years, Earn-(See Page 19: Jarrett) Once in second, he turned into Mr. Inside in the 3rd and 4th turns of lap 199. When he got below Earnhardts Lumina, it upset the aerodynamics on Earnhardts car, forcing him up high on the banked turn. Jarrett snuck into the lead going into turns one and two of the last lap and held on to beat Earnhardt by 19-hundredths of a second. Geoff Bodine was third and Hut Stricklin fourth, both in Ford Thunderbirds, and Gordon held on for fifth in a Chevy.

The top five all finished within a few car lengths of each other. I noticed that Earnhardt was starting to get a little bit loose off of four, Jarrett said of his decision to go by Earnhardt on the turns low side. We touched a little bit coming off of four, Jarrett said. Then Geoff Bodine got in behind me and gave me the push I needed going into one. Jarretts Chevrolet Lumina had the power to make those moves because Gibbs team buys engines from Hendrick Motorsports, whose general manager, Jjmmy Johnson (no, not the one in Dallas), adved Gibbs when he decided to start a racing team.

When I called him up and told him who I By JOSEPH SIANO The New York Timea DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. On a day when Redskins Coach Joe Gibbs credited a man named Jimmy Johnson with helping his team win the biggest event of the year and a 21-year-old rookie kept his head better than a lot of veterans, there was at least one constant in the Daytona 500 on Sunday. Dale Earnhardt came into the race strong and went out a loser. Gibbs, in only his second year as a car owner, saw his driver, Dale Jarrett, win stock-car racings biggest event with some moves in the last few laps that Gibbs might recommend to his halfbacks. Jarrett, in third place entering turns three and four of Daytona International Speedway on the 198th of 200 laps, became Mr.

Outside. He went high in the banked turns of this two-and-a-half-mile oval, a move he had been feinting for several laps, and passed second-place Jeff Gordon, 21, the rookie who continued his mature driving in Daytona Beach on Sunday. My car worked awfully good from the middle of the race track up, Jarrett said later. CSJs Shelton Scores 51 In Defeat Even Dennis Sheltons school record 51 points was not enough for the College of St. Joseph on Sunday afternoon in Rutland as Lyndon State defeated the Fighting Saints 106-96 in a Mayflower Conference mens basketball game.

Shelton broke the school record for most points in a game held by Ray Boyd with 46. Jim Dowleam also had an outstanding game for the Saints with 23 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists. It was a bitter defeat for the Saints who had entertained some hopes for qualifying for the NAIA District 5 eight-team tournament. That about knocked us out for the playoffs, said Sails, whose team faU to 9-12. It was Benningtons Dan Slee-man who did the Saints in.

Jhe little Lyndon guard struck for 28 points with seven three-point field goals. They outplayed us and they shot the ball very well, said Saints coach Gordon Sails on the Hornets. The College of St. Joseph also lost the first game of the afternoon as the Lyndon State women won 75-63. The CSJ women, led by Heather Murphy (20 points, 14 rebounds) and Lori Hanscom(18 points), fall to 7-12 overall and 6-5 in the Mayflower Conference.

Jen Warren led Lyndon with 22 points.
