(AP) - The Ge neral has no intention of just fading • way. Bob Kn ight, fi red after 29 years at Indiana, says he will coach again, and he'll do it the way he always has - his way. ""I've always felt I've got to be me,[ can't be so mething that someone's trying to construct,"" he said Tuesday night in a live, sometimes co ntentious interview on ESPN. " I try to be fa ir, cry to be honest. My philosophy and approach to things is just different than some people and situations," Knight said . O usted for a pattern of " unacceptable" be havior that violated a " ze ro-tolerance" behavior policy, Knight admitted he was surpmed by the sc hool's decision. But he said perhaps it was time to move on anyway, and that he still wants to coach "in the worst way." "I tho ught I'd stay here till l was done coachi ng," Knight said. "I haven 't retired. I'm an unemployed teacher right now, and I'm loo lung for a place to teach. There are too m any things that I have yet to explore about the game o f basketball ." Knight said he thought about leaving Indiana at times, but his love of the basketball team was to o strong. He had wanted the Hoosiers, who haven't advanced past the second round of the NCAA tournament since 1994, to become a powerhouse again. " I kind of hung on to that thought for seve ral years no w, four or five years, and probably sho uld"ve gone somewhere else,"' the 59-yearold Hall o f Fame coach said. "And there would be somebody that was a better fit for chis administration and these people than I am . And there'< a place for me where there's a better fie fo r me as a basketball c.;>ach." Knight repeated that he did nothing wrong whe n he grabbed freshman Kent Harvey by Marshall frOm PageB1 ' for some of these guys. That's no t an excuse, that's part of coaching young guys," Pruett said. "And we had some young guys o n defense mall<: mfi'"tam. ! , Reds. from PageB1 o uncer in his final plate appearance. " H e was throwing his fastball hard, and he kept it up in the strike zo ne a nd he was malung us c h ase his brea king balls after th rowing t hem fo r strikes ," Ochoa said. '"T he fastballs at the kttcr> were hard co lay off, and w e were popping them up." Chicago stopped a four- game losing strea k, winning for only the second time in 12 games. The w in was Don Baylor 's SOOth as a maj o r league manager. The first ~ ~0 were With Colorado. " It 's J nice mlieswn e, but I'm just glad tt"s over," Baylor said. l.laylor satd he didn 't have anybody warnung up until the mn th ·because :1c was rooting fo r Wood to go all the way.

Owa ldo Fernandez (2-3) allowed bot h runs o ne unearned - and five hns in six the arm last week to lec tu re him about manners after the student said, "Hey, what's up. Knight'" The coach also disputed some of th e other reasons university president Myles Drand cited in firing him. Bran d said Knight vio la.ed a zero-tolerance po licy that had been in place since May. Bur Knight said he was never told exactly w hat .. zero- toleran ce" meant. a d ain1 university offioals denied. Knight said one e piso de cited 'by Brand, verbal abuse of a university lawyer, occurred during a meeting abo ut the $30,000 fin e levied agai nst him by Brand in May. But Knight said he never u sed profanity and didn 't raise his voice. After the ESPN inte rview, university offi cials said they stood by Brand's earlie r statem ents. "[ certainly chink he did have a chance. In fact, his job was saved by this administra ti o n in May and they gave him another chance, a new lease on life," school trustee Stephen Backer said. "It appears, from his own ir:nerview, that he was angry and resentful, and instead of caking advantage of the opportuniry, he failed to d o so." Unive rsity vi ce pres ident C hristopher Simpson added, "I see nothing productive at this juncture to get into a he-said, ~he-said . The decision was made on Sunday for the right reasons, I believe. The president of the universiry explained those reasons and it's time to move on." In another interview with The Spo rting News , Knight said he was most so rry to be leaving Bloomington because of all the golf, hunting and fishing in the area. "We're going to move," Knight cold the wee kly newspape r, referring to his wife, We really wore down on defense. We didn 't rotate in enough on defense."

The place has fit my lifestyle. '"Now that's aU wiped out, and I feel wane· abou t chat chan not having the coaching job." O n ESPN, he ofte n chastised interviewer J eremy Schaap for what he considered interrupti ons as he answered questions. At one po int he to ld Schaap, son of veteran sporUwrirer and broadcaster Dick Schaap : "You got a long way to go to be as good as your dad, yo u better keep that in mind." Knight, replaced Tuesday by Indiana assista nt Mike Davis, said getting another coaching job is a priority, but he's not sure what wo uld be the best situation. In July, he was contac ted by Delaware about recommendations for its head coaching job. Later, Knight said, he thought he perhaps" sho uld have asked about the job for himself. The school hired David Henderson, who had been a Duke assistant . . lsiah Tho mas, a former Indiana player and now coach of the Indiana Pacers, said he wo uld welcome Knight on the Pacers' bench try fails AP TAX WRITER " I told him, 'All you ·have to do is ask. I do n't kn ow what kind of comnnitment I want to make, but if you want me to come to practice, evalu ate players, do some scouting, just ask,'"' Knight told The Sporting News. Knight, who addressed a campus protest after he was fired , planned to meet with stude nts Wednesday night at Dunn Meadow, which is near the Student Union. The forum is sponsored by the school newspaper, the Indiana Daily Student . about that. "Right now I chink we're beat up ourselves;' he said. "This week is a good week to take off and get some players back on both offense and defense and be ready to roll next week, This is about fine-tuning." .I Because we represent Nationwide®- one of the nnest Insurers In the nation - we con offer a wide 1'0119e of covera9es for the widest spectrum of drivers.

CURT ANDERSON WA SHI NGTON T he House voted Wed nesday to sustain President Clinron 's veto of a bill that wo uld have cut income ta..xes fo r 1nil1io ns of married couples, killing a major piece of R epublicans' tax agenda bur also giving them anununirio n fo r the f.,ll campaigns. .. Amt'ricans understand it is wrong w tax m arriage," said House M;Uority Lt·ade r Dick Arm ey, R -Texas. " We will have to put it up on th e floor next year and have a president who w iII sign it." The 270- 158 vote was 16 fewe r than the two-thirds necessary to override the veto of th e " marriage pe nalty" b ill. Forty-ni ne D emocrats joined all ?20 R epublicans an d one independent who vo ted to override, "(i th 157 Democrats and one independent voting to back the president. The bill """ ai med at cutting taxes for dual- income couples wh o pay more than they would if sin gle. But almost all married couples stood to benefit fro m the legislatio n, whi ch wo uld have cut their taxes by $292 billion over I 0 years. T he bill also would have cut taxes fo r millions of couples who already enjoy an income tax bonus, generally those in whi ch on e spouse earns significantly more chan the other. H ouse Speaker De nni s Hastert, R - Ill., said C on gress would not revisit the marriage penalty ISsue and wo uld shift attenti on away fi·o m bruad individual tax cuts toward paying down the n ational debt. Clinto n previously vetoed a S1OS billio n measure char wo uld have abol"ished estate taxes over 10 years. "If he's going to veto tax relief - the next choice at the tabl e is paying dow n the debt, and that's w hat we're go ing to <)o," Hastert told reporters. C li nton said the bill would "kn of k Ameri ca off th is path of fi scal Jis<"ipline"' - wh ic h has prod uced growing budget surpl c~ses and paid down fe deral debt - as part of an unacceptable GO P tax reli ef plan costing $2 tr illion over 10 years.

Fall may be several days otT, but indications are that the long-term forecast was wishful thinking. OPEC plans to increase production, perhaps in response to the fuel crisis gripping Europe. Yet the cost of oil per barrel remains at a record level, more than S30, and the pump price is increasing or is expected to rise. America's situation is ditferent from Europe's in that our supplies, co the best of our knowledge, are not limited or about to run out. The United Kingdom as of early Wednesday was on the verge of ~ going without until shipment> were at las1 delivered. · We also don't pay the prices Europeans do, which are significant:: ly higher chan the average $1.50 per gallon seen locally. That's due ; • in part to being within shipping distance of refineries and because : : domestic need for the summer had to be met. But with Labor Day past and travel plans fulfilled, ddayed or whatever, we're left to wonder why the price remains close to the levels posted overnight in June. . Production problems, required taxes and ocher concerns cited by the industry aside, the nation is still paying a premium for its fuel. • If anyone has been curious as to how or when our economic ~ : expansion will end, this may be the warning signal. :• High fuel prices will slow the engine of growth as surely as a tank :: of bad gas. An increase in transportation costs, for example, causes :: che price of goods being shipped to rise. Higher costs result in infla:: cion. That triggers a ripple etfect hitting the everyday consumer ·: right in che pocketbook. ·: Wich indications that consumer spending is cooling, increased · • prices are not needed at chis time. Should more oil flow out of the • Midclle East and from our own refineries, chen chis situation doesn't have to arise. But is Europe's experience a wake-up call? Are we going to allow t he wheels of our economy co come co a near full stop before action is taken? That action has perhaps already manifested itself in the slowdown in personal spending. If more of our dollars are going co fuel our vehicles or pay for heating oil, and less is spent on durable goods, consumers are sending their own wake-up call.

The crunching sound you hear is me chewing crow for disparaging Vice President AI Gore's Democratic convention performance. Clearly, it was impressive enough to voters that he now leads in the presidential race. I wrote on ·Aug. 21 chat I doubted Gore would get much bounce from the convention. He got an average of 10 points in national polls, bringing him even wich Texas Gov. George W Bush, R. And he's still surging. Even though Bush aide1 consider Newsweek's Labor Day poll showing Gore ahead by 10 points co be ridiculous, at least one other national pollster thinks new surveys this week, will confirm the number. That sugg~sts Gore not only did everything he needed to do at the Los Angeles convention but has also kept his bounce alive with postconvention activity. And ic means Bush can't coast back into the lead he once enjoyed - a lead that depended substantially on the public's low opinion of Gore and his mentor, President Clinton. Pollster John Zogby has been asking voters to choose whether, on balance, Clinton and Gore deserve credit for the country's prosperity or represent an embarrassment to the nation. Before the Democratic convention, voters ranked embarrassment ahead of prosperity by 46 percent to 41 percent. Now, however, it's prospenty 55 percent, embarrassment 35 percent. This result indicates Gore accomplished one of his key tasks at the convention -- getting credit for the good thinb>s chat have happened in the Clinton years while separating himself from the bad. Voters seem to have appreCiated the quick pivot that Gore made in his acc eptance speech from past accomplishments to new proposals, and they seem to have believed Gore when he said, '' [ stand here tonight as my own man." I wrote that Gore had kicked away centrist and mdependent voters - and maybe the election- with populist-liberal rhetoric about "powerful forces and powerful interests" blockmg the surcess of"workmg fa milies." Morton Kondracke NEA COLUMNIST But Gore seems co have succeeded in another tricky task consolidating the Democratic base while not offending the center. Gore's framing the campaign as "they're for the powerful, and we're for the people'' and his demonizing of "big tobacco, big oil, the big polluters, the pharmaceutical companies, the HMOs" evidently were balanced by his selection of centrist Sen. Joe Lieberman, D-Conn., as his running mate. Accor4ng to Zogby, Gore went from 69 percent support among Democrats before the convention to 79 percent afTerward - about the same level that Bush enjoyed among Republicans. Meantime, independents wenc lium a 36-34 preference for Bush before the convention to a 39-36 preference for Gore afterward. Among women voters, the two were tied ac 42 percent before Los Angeles, but they gave Gore a 15-point lead afterward, 49 percent to 34 percent. According to the Bush campaign, fo cus groups show that Gore's convention speech was not nearly as decisive in improving his posicion as his daughters' speeches about hm1 and his wife's photo-essay introduction, concluding with "the kiss." Whatever it was, the entire convention seems to have achieved the goal of improvi ng Gore's favorability racings - and since the uine, but stale, message on education, while · Gore elevated the emerging issue of health care. At long last, Bush has come out with his Medicare plan, which has great merit. It is bold, involving full-scale market reform of the retiree health system, and has support fiom centrist New Democrats. Unveiling the plan, Bush tried to distinguiSh it from Gore's, which he said would "make the government the nation's pharmacist," but Bush's delivery was passionless, and he sounded as though he were merely reading lines written by experts whose lead he was follmving. Bush had problems explaining his tax-cut plan, and it's hard to imagine that he could pass an exam on his Medicare proposal, either. The campaign likely will be decided by oral exams, in the form of the debates, so it's litcle wonder that Bush cried co organize them in a fashion that might reduce Gore's presumed advantage as a verbal fencer, Bush proposed dumping the three-debate format proposed by the Commission on Presidential Debates and accepting invitations to undergo questioning by NBC's Tim Russerr and CNN's Larry King - the first, likely to pound on Clinton-Gore ethical lapses, and che second, to create a generally co,r1fortable atmosphere. There was certainly nothing wrong wi th Bush's attempt to improve his odds in combat, but the effott was so obvious that it made it appear the governor is trying to duck a face-otT on the issues . Bush and the Republican National Committee dearly will try to revive doubts about Gore's ethics and character, but chan ces are thi s election will be decided on the basis of issues. Whose overall program is most likely co sustain the nation "s prosperity and create opportunities for everyone to share in it' Since the conventions, voters have given the edge to Gore. Bush is going to have to fight - just like Gore did - to get it back.

And he never wants ro be mentioned in the sa m~ se ntence with Gus Frcrotte either. Pyne, who played 111 every game for the expansion Browns last season at left guard, suffered a season-ending knee injury in Cleveland's 24-7 win ar Cincinnati on Sunday. Pync tore his- anterior cruciate ligament as he started to jump while he and his offensive teammates celebrated a second-quarter touchdown pass from Tim Couch to tight end Mark Campbell. .. All of a sudden it just went," Pyne said Wednesday. "I was just running down the field, and no one hit me or anything. It wasn't like I tried to do a cartwheel or something. It wasn't a celebration, I don't celebrate. I went down"to congratulate my teammates for scoring a touchdown , that's aU it was." Down in the trenches. Pyne, who was the only Browns lineman not to miss a snap last season, often went unnoticed. But his injury gave the seven-year veteran some publicity he never wanted or appreciated. " I read in today's USA Today, and to be honest with you it kind of upset me;' Pyne said. " They made me look like Gus Frerotte or something. That's not what I was doing." Frerotte is the former Washington Redsk.ins. quarterback who once sprained hi s neck while head butting a wall after scoring a TD. Frerotte's infamous mjury is a staple on NFL highlight bloopers. Pyne thinks he may have seriously injured his knee before he went down. He sprained his right .ankle during practice last Thursday, and had to be helped off the field.

Pyne said while watching film of Sunday's game that there were three plays where he thinks his knee may have been injured.

Bengals look for Simmons' replacement NASCAR NOTEBOOK CINCINNATI (AP) - With their top tackler of 1999 sidelined for at least two months by a knee injury, the Cincinnati Bengals must find someone to fill what teammates concede will be a big vacancy in the defense. Brian Simmons, a linebacker in his third year with Cincinnati, called defensive signals. He was considered the heart of the defense, along with fellow linebackerTakeo Spikes. Coach Bruce Coslet said he is keeping an open mind as to which of three reserves will be promoted to fill Simmons' spor on Snnday at Jacksonville. Otherwise, they will look to the waiver wire. "I think we're going to see right now if we have guys here who can fill in for Brian in the meantime, and then take ir from there," linebackers coach Mark Duffner said. Simmons had arthroscopic surgery Tuesday to repair a torn lateral meniscus cartilage in his right knee . The Bengals estimate ·it will be at least eight weeks before ·he could return to action. The three linebackers most likely to replace Simmons Adrian Ross, Armegis Spearman or Billy Granville - have a combined 66 tackles, one interception and · one sack in their NFL careers. Simmons had 111 tackles and three sacks in 1999 alone. Ross, 25, a third-year linebacker from Colorado State, is likely to get the first chance. He started 10 games last year with 18 tackles and .one sack. When the Bengals switched from the 3-4 to the 4-3 defense, he was benched. Ross' one tackle against the Cleveland Browns during Sun- O~pics toes. Now 34, he started kayaking to help his rehabilitation. • THE TORCH: Thousa nds of Sydneysiders cheered mightily Thursday as the logo of five rings was lighted up on city's Harbor Bridge and the Olympic torch wound its way through down- frOmPageB1 arrangements are in place for a very highly successful games," he said. The head of the International Olympic Committee also had a bit of a jab for the host city four years ago. "Sydney is very different from Atlanta," Samaranch said. "The look of the games is fantastic, with banners and so on. But wait until Oct. 1 to know my impression of the games." Atlanta looked too commercial, IOC officials have said, with some streets taken over by vendors. • FLAGBEARER: A kayaker who took up his sport as a way to recuperate from a horrible electric shock will carry the starsand-stripes at the opening ceremony. The U.S. team voted to have Cliff Meidl carry the natidn's flag into ' Olympic Stadium. "Not only is going to the Olympics a dream for me, but to be elected fiagbearer by my peers is the ultimate," he said Thursday. Meidl, of Redondo Beach, Calif., absorbed a 30,000-volt jolt of electricity- a charge with 15 times the power of rhe electric chair when he cut through three unmarked high-voltage cables while working as . a plumber's apprentice in 1986. The shock blew off Meidl's town. Australian sprinter Melinda Gainsford-Taylor carried the torch · into the Sydney Opera House grounds, then gave it to Italian opera singer Andrea Bocelli, who handed it off to singer Olivia Newton-John. • IN SYNC: This Olympics will see the debut of the trampoline. ln 2004, the new event could be nuxed pairs synchronized SWJmnung. Swimming's governing body, FINA, approved a U.S.-backed proposal to allow mixed pairs competition, beginning with the 2002 World Cup. The move clears the way for men to participate in synchronized swimming at the 2004 Olympics in Athens - and was great news for Bill May of Cicero, N.Y. May has waged a one-man campaign for mixed pairs competition to be included in..international competition. " Had the proposal not passed, I would have almost certainly been forced to retire frnn1 competition," he said. • GYMNASTICS: U.S. women's gymnast Jamie Dantzscher rolled her right ankle day's 24-7 loss was a fourth-down stop of Errict Rhett at the Bengals' 3-yard line in the first quarter. Ross said he wouldn't have problems playing at Simmons' middle linebacker position. "I've played more outside, but I've done a little bit of both," said Ross, primarily a defensive e nd in college. Granville has seen spot duty, mostly on special teams, during his three years with the Bengals. Duffner will also be looking closely at Spearman, a 6-foot-1, 254-pound rookie free agent he recruited from Mississippi. Spearman made the Bengals' roster primarily to play on special teams, but the injury to Simmons could change that. Spearman made four tackles d11ring th e Browns game. ~appen." : Along with his three .acks, M cKenzie was credited with six iackles and two quarterback pressures.

"The only time you're up there is if you're in trouble. And if you 're in trouble, why not have something to help out?" But NASCAR operations director Kevin Triplett says soft walls that decompose o n contact can create another set of problems With debns on the track. And he says the sanctioni ng body cou ld rema in open to criticisn1 no matte r what it did . " If you bring something o ut 4 feet and it doesn't work, somebody will say you should have brought it out 6 teet," Tnplett explained. "And how far around do you go' Suppose you put it 100 feet arou nd and something . happened at 130 feet'" The track had operated for 10 years witho11t any deaths, but two in two months created a percep-tion in some minds that it's more dangerous than most. • And that probably won't change for a while. The death of Petty - the 19-year-old drive; from stock car racing's most famous fanuly followed by that of Irwin in the same tum al01ost guarantees it.

Reopening occurs when both sides have been in the auction and you are in the passout seat after a round or two. Balancing occurs when the opener's first bid is passed around to the fourth chair.

This deal was my favorite, if on ty because it shows what many pl ayers forget : Silence can win more points than bidding. Look on ly at the East hand. You pass as dealer, your left-hand opponent opens one diamond , and it is passed back to you. What would you do 0 Where are the spades'' Partner is marked with some points, yet didn't overcall.

(AP) - Running back Chris Howard was waived by Jacksonville just three days after he had rwo fumbles on only eight carries in his first start for the Jaguars. emerge as Southern's leading rusher, although as a team Southern has netted just 140, 16 and 169 as a team in its three games. "We just have to have a running game," said Richards. "If we establish a running game, we can be successful offensively, because then we can pass. Defensively, we have to stop Alexander's running game. Those will be two key points in this game." Holbert knows containing Southeni's guns is key to his club earning its first win . He said he is especiallt . concerned about the talented Brice Hill. "We need to co ntain Brice Hill," Holbert said. "We have tokeep him from catching the football and we have to have a strong pass rush. If he catches it in the open field we don't have anyon e that can stop him. Another key to this game is that we have to hold our own on the line and run the ball at least 'occasionally' effective." The Alexander running game has been virtually non-existent the past three weeks, putting added pressure on jumor quarterback L.C Grigsby, a 5-9, 147-pounder, with good speed and a nice throwing arm. Grigsby is often put into the position of having to dotoo much, because of Alexander's early season offensive struggles. Thejunior has connected on 19-of-52 passes for 248 yards and one touchdown, Alexander's lone score of the season. Senior wingback Gabe Smith is the Spartan leading receiver with five catches for 95 yards, while junior, Ryan Lawso n has four receptions for 51 yards and a touc hdown. Like Southern, Alexander's rushing game has been lacking. Many of the runs and net yards have produced negative yardage. Jason Schonauer, a 5-6 junior runni ng back is leading the pack with ·18 carries for 57 yards. "Our rushing game has been non-existent," Holbert said . "This has put addedpressure on our passing game," Defensively, freshman Jason Brandeberry leads his cl ub with 21 tackles, including six for losses . John Ervin, a senior linebacker. has 25 tackles and is corning off an All-TVC performance from a year ago. Gabc Srnlth has 25 tackles and a safery, while Schonauer has 22 tackles. Matt Ash is the leading Southern tackler. Game time is 7:30 p.m. at Albany. fOR mOR[ InfO. PlfAS[ CAll ALDER ROBERT BISSELL CONSTRUCTION (ormelila'~ (realio~~ . BLOOMtNGTON, Ind.

Bush has allowed rival Al Gore to take comrnand of the campaign and needs to put recent missteps behind hm1 to capture swing states such as Ohio, a GOP offi cial said. Gore has been able to sti ck to the isme< while Bush has been forced to address missteps, said Jim Trakas, chairman of the C uyahoga County Republican Party. Bush h .. been question ed at appearances about a crude comment about a reporter that was picked up by mi crophones at a campaign rally and also a GOP commercial attacking Gore in whi ch the word "rats" was flashed across the sc reen for a fraction of a second. " H e's got to get on the offensive and he's got to be posing better ideas rather than defending various remarks and oth er an ci llary activitie< of the campai1,,'n ." Trakas said Wednesday. •• genGt<,. .tP.QJllS: Two-thitds of all bicycle accidents are not even with an auto mobil e, statistics show.

Parents are encouraged to tea ch th eir childre n th e rules of t h e road for their protect ion because responsible, educated bicyclists are involv.ed in fewer accidents.

The Bush campaign has "recognized they 'vc stumbled, to some extent, and they 've got to co me back s·winging." Trakas is eager to get Bush back o n tr•ck in Cuyahoga Cou nty, O hio's most populous. because Republicans there can cause a lot of damage to Gore's chances of winning Ohio. Democrats usually must win the county - and its heavily Democratic C leveland co re - bl at least 125,000 vo tes in statewide elections to offset heavily R epublican areas of celltral and southwest Ohio. The latest polls . have fo und Bush leading Gore by about 6 percentage points in the state. Trakas isn't worried about whet her Republicans in his county turn out Nov. 7. "Whilt• Vice President Gore essentially has pulled even m the state, th e R epublican ba.~c is far mo re motivatL·d to go out and vote.They're very mu ch more excited about their candidate than the Democrats are abou t tlwir ca ndidate," he said.

"He needs to continue talkmg to the vot- ..;.;u en directly about issues that are of real importance to them. At this moment, he is communicating well but at some point, Governor Bush cou ld get back on message," Tipps said. Unions must be e nergiud to vote for Gore, who took some criticism iium labor for his support of the C hina trade bill. In Ohio. where unions in m anufacturing and the public employee sector enjoy enormous clout, it helps that Gore is on the ballot with Supreme C ourt Justic e Alice Robi e R esnick, one of only two Democrats to hold statewide office.
