There were practical reasons that Kirkland and his illustrious predecessor George Meany were tough on comqJUnism and the Soviet Union. Kirkland often explained it, roughly, like this: "I don't want to negotiate a union contract with the man who owns the army, the newspapers, the central bank and the police." The worst thing for a free trade union is an un-free society, where the value of labor is priced by the state and strikes are treason. Nor does labor want to compete against goods produced under such regimes. Moreover, many defense industries employed union labor. But there was more tb it, for members and leaders.

By JANET McCONNAUGHEY Associated Press Writer Women c\n cut their risk cif heart · disease by more than a third with the right type of exercise - and it doesn' t have to be <1 big, sweaty -workout. researchers reported today. Eith~r three hours of brisk walking per week or half that time spent working up a sweat at jogging. aero- · bic dance or other vigorous ex.en:ise reduced the risk of heart diseas~ 35 percent io 40 percent in a study of 72,488 women . The study also suggests it's never too late to start : Women who were ' couch potatoes when the eight -year study began reduced their risk of heart trouble by about the same amount as those. who were acli ve from the start. "For many people, recommendations to do strenuous exercise may have s~rved as a barrier to becoming physically active. These results are encouraging, " said Dr. JoAnn Manson , a profess·or at llarvard-aff~liated 'Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston who oversaw the research, which was pan of 1he long-running Nurses Health Study. "In order to walk all you need is, good pair of walking shoes . It's simple, convenient, safe and accessible. Almost anyone can do it. " The study was published in today's New_ England Journal of Medicine.

But if he got it wrong, Shunerly 's win nings would be sliced to $32.000. , For the ·final query, Sttuucrly had to identify the initial hard rock Grammy Award win~er when the music awards show established the category in 1989. The winner, Jethro Tull, was contro-versial because it doesn't really play hard rock. Presented with four choices, . ' sis of questionnaires from women age< 40 to 65 is the fiTs! large study to look at women and walking, according to the hospital. Strolling won 't do it, no matter how long you walk, Manson said. You have to stride out ah3 mph or more, or 20 minutes or less per mile. But three hours of brisk walking , and 'll/2 hours of vigorous exercise use the same amount of energy, and that 's ~he key. Walking biiskly for five .hours a week cut the risk of h•art attacks 50 percent, Manson said. Even one to 2.9 hours of brisk walk ing a·week brought a 30 percent reduction in heart attacks and deaths from other coronary problems . "We feel it 's a very important study that once again poims out the value of moderate am·ounts of physical activit}' in maintainiilg heart health," said Dr. Teri Manoijo of the · National Heart, Blood and Lung .Institute, which paid for the study. Dr. Gerald Fletcher. a spokesman for the American Heart Association. said the study backs up the association 's call for regular exercise. People seem to think that "exercise" means "go for it," Fletcher said . "Walking. particularly briskly, is just as good as a rough game of soccer or hiking mo~ntains, or going to a health club· and lifting weights ."

II is frighlening how I continue to find deals in which penalty doubles backfire badly. This one was declared in B.elgium some years ago by Louis .Raeymakers. You reach four hearts doubled. Westleads the club queen . After ruff- 1· ing, how would you continue? If you lead a spade, East wins with the ace and continues with the club ace . South's overcall is thin, but understandable wilh the good heart suit (Also, in Europe, they lend to overcall lighter than in Nonh America. Her~. many expcns would make a weak jump overcall of lwo heans, · . slipping a diamond among their heartS!) West mighl have shown his $pade suit N6rth might not have shown his, jumping straight 10 four hearts. Yet he decided that two spades wouldn't be passed out, and he felt that he was more likely to push the opponents into bidding five clubs (which probably makes) with the immediate jump than with a slower approach. The Jtlay begins _wilh a club ruff, a spade to Easl's ace and another club ruff. How should South proceed? Quietly oul the back door... unless, like Raeymakers, he has lhrown the spade king under East's ace' By . unblocking ·the spade king, declarer could ruff the second club, draw four rounds of lrump. and play another spade, cslablishing dummy's suit True, the defenders could cash a club, bul that gave them only three lricks i{1 all : 1\\lo spades and one club. Wilh the .diamond finesse wrong. as expected, and the spades 4-1, if declarer keeps the spade king in his Mnd al trick ·two, he is histoire, as a French-speaking Belgian might say. • •• 23Wlncl- powa:ed 1 37 Long311bu... 43 ~=-.::. the ; llldn 45 ltlatt1 COUr'M!

The Tornadoes have to improve their special teams play and their tackling of a year ago, when teams often broke the big play. Barr said, "We have to make the tackles this year.

Wo need to have confidence that we can catch it, .confidence that the kids that are out there can run the routes and that we can finish ·the play with a catch." . Last year, Southern averaged over 100 yards a game in dropped passes. Besides staying healthy and catching receptions, Bart added, " We have to win the turnover battle and we can't fumble it three and four times and beat anybody.

Re-injury can occur from improper' warm-up. improper fitting of equipment. unsafe playing sur.face. use of improper technique. abuse of rules and regulations: such as unnecessary roughness , drug or alcohol abuse. tack of physical conditioning. dehydration or heat illness. improper nutrition , returning to play before an injury has healed or has been rehabilitated appropriately. etc. However, I have found that the mos t common cause of re-injury is that the athlete often downplays his her injury 10 the coach. the trainer and physician. A student was JOb shadowing me recently and asked. what the mo>t dtfficult job of being a sports medicine specialist was and the answer was simply, "The most difficult job is getting the athlete and sometimes the parent or coach to tell me what's going on." Athletes often will not tell the trai ner. coach or parent that they have sus!ained an injury due to fear that they will not be able to play. The injury progresses and could become more complicated as thne goes on due to lack of proper evaluation and treatment. Some athletes do seek treatment of their mjury. but do not answer honestly when asked about P'ISl injuries. · I have witnessed athletes who have had· head injuries seek treatment tor three separate episodes of head trauma at three differ~nt hospi tal s and deny past injury so that the physician would release him or her to play. Parents and coaches may or may not be aware of what is occurring . I have seen athletes go to one doctor, and if that doctor will not release them to play. they search until they fmd someone who will release them . These sce narios are very dangerous and can be life threatenin g. Below. I have given some examples of how re-injury may be prevented. If you are an athlete, I am asking you to please tell your parent, trainer or c0 ach immediately when you get injured. With proper treatment. it may prevent a more serious injury down thnoaU that could be -career ending . If you have been released from care and sustai n another injury or arc still having problems call your doctor immediately and let him or her know what is going on. If you're a parent and_you know that your child is·hurt: talk to your. trainer, coach or team physician about it. If at any time you notice unusual behavior of your child during a game or if he/she has been complaining of persistent headaches. sleeping more than usual. incunring repetitive injury to a specific body part. vomiting alter trauma, etc., let someone know immediately. · If you're a coach. observe your athletes for improper. technique whether it be blocking. tacklin g technique or running technique and make conrective changes in order to prevent injury, Emphasize good nutrition. proper conditioning and .proper wann-uplcooi down and rehydration during hot weather. lam pleased to see that coaches are beginning to take a more active role in prevention of injury by reprimanding an athlete for speari ng with a helmet, inappropriate Big Ten's 1999 agenda conduct (behavior or substance abuse) and communicating better with the parents. trainers and team physicians. Illinois As a health care professional. I will do everything possible to keep your athletes healthy and active in athletics, but my utmost concern is for the safety of that ath lete. DaJt Opoonen!

Michigan -3 p.m: By RUSTY MILLER the league who believe the snub was directed not at Miami so much as the entire MAC, which is frequently lost in the shadow of the neighboring Big Ten. "There 's nothing wrong with this league . There 's nothing wrong wilh . the football in this league," Hoeppner said. · "l]le only thing wrong wtth this league is the perception of this league." Miami could lift that perception somewhat, since it boasts one of the MAC's marquee players in tailback Travis Prentice. The 6-foot-1 , 228·pound senior needs to add just 432 yards to his 3,937 career total to become the conference's all-time rushing leader. He already owns the MAC record for points with 342 and is on pace to become the NCAA' s alltime scoring and rouchdoy;n leader. Pre ntice denects the praise that's sent his way. . , "When I get recognition , my .teammates get recognition, " he said. " That's the most important thing. If people want to watch me , they have to watch my team and they ' re going 10 see that there .are a Jot of players we can go to." Trouble is, Marsha!l.has that same surplus of weapons once again . _The Thundering Herd, 12-1 a year ago and the MAC and Motor City Bowl champiOns, lose just two starters on offense and one on defense from a team that won five games by a touchdown or less. "last year that was a young football team t'or us, " coach Bob Pruett said. The focal points this time around figure to be quarterback Chad Pennington , who passed for 3,419 yards and 24 touchdowns last year. like former teammate Randy Moss did, he 's got his own Heisman Trophy Web site. Another. bit of ammo is tailback Doug Chap_man, who gamed I ,265. yards. Rest assured that the Marshall game Oct. 2 in Oxford will be a redletter day for Miami's football team. The East Dtvision title will likely hang in the balance. · In the West, two-time defending cham p Toledo was a slight favorite over Western Michigan in preseason balloting by media covering the MAC. The Rockets, 7-5 a year ago with three losses by a touchdown or less, have eight ~ tarters back on offense and another six on defense. Plus, they host Western in the regular-season finale. Western (7-4) also welcomes back most of ils regulars- 17 to be exact - and might have the top passer in MAC history. Tim lester threw for 3,311 yards and 22 touchdowns a year ago and is on pace to shatter the conference records for total offense and passing . yardage. But that's not his primary goal. · " Records are greal and all, but we have n' t won a champiOnship smce· I've been here and that's what we're aiming for," he said. . By J .R.

" I've seen all the tricks ," Browns coach Chris Palmer said. "I've seen Carnation milk used .to soften the seams. Everybody has their own ingredients. " But the days of kickers "doctoring': footballs to gain a competitive advantage are over. Among the new rules and restrictions the NFL will implement for the 1999 season is the way game balls are prepared. After the league's Competiti on Committee re ceived complamts about balls being altered by kickers to get more distance. the NFL is going to make sure that thi~ season everyo ne is on equal ·footing . Of the 36 football s used in an· NFL game, 12 will be shipped separately to the stadtum and o pened for the first time in the offt cials' locker room two hours before gamctimc .

" The officials will also check the inflation of all footballs . All the players can ·rest assured that all the ball s will be the highest quality."

Leav~s are changing colors, and it 's football season. Right? Well, the first two sentences are wishful 'thinking since it's still hot and humid with no rain in sight. But it is football t;Cason in Athens again, as practice for the 1999 campaign begins in earnest this weekend. Conventional wisdom (the stuff preseason college football preview magazines are made ot) says the Bobcats can practice all they want to; they have no shot at the MAC title. The magazines unanimously choose three teams to finish ahead of Ohio in the MAC East Marshall, Miami and Bowling Green . 1 can buy t-hat to a degree, since current Ohio boss Jim Grobe is winless against the MUs, and BG thumped the Cats at Doyt Perry last year. · . But I say look beyond conventional wisdom. and ' you'll find this Bobcat team has a much better chance al winning a MAC title than any of the past three seasons. when Ohio went a combined 16-8 in the conference with three close title misses. · To see what I mean, you have to examine what the previous three Ohio teams did not have. In 1996, the Bobcats lost a large, second-half lead against eventual hamp Ball State that soured their title • . hopes. . . In '97, they went into the final game of the season at , Marshall with the title game on the line only to lose. Last . year, they led or were tied with Marshall and Miami only , w come up short. Those Ohio teams. however. relied solely on grit and detcrn1ination to 0\Crachicve. Yes, they featured the top two rushers in Ohio history in Steveland Hookfi n and Kareem Wil son. hut let's he honest . Ohio was a one-duncnsJOnalteam with no depth that played wnh a 5-7 quarterback and . for two season' anyway, an undersized star fullback who was forced to play out of position. If the grit and hustle carries over. there will be no such problems this season. But several things have to go right . Here 's a list: 1. Depth - Fur the tlrst time in the Grobe era, depth dOes not seem to be a paramount liabtlity fo r the Bobcats going into a season · The defensive and offensive backfi elds in part ic ular seem as stoc ked as the shelves of a Super Target store . But wh ile depth has improved stcadi ly since the years when incoming freshmen were counted on to contribute immedi atel y. there are indeed still some areas of concern - main ly defensive line, outside linebacker and quarterback (where freshmen will probably fill back-up positions at the least). If the defensive front seve n de velops. and if the team can stay relati ve ly healthy. the Cats should have the depth necessary to contend with the MAC elite. 2. Spccialtcaml - Improvement in thi s area will be adtr~ct result of impro"cd depth. While lhe Bobcat spcciaJ te ams ha\'e thrived oi•cr the past several seasons, .o ften accounting for hig plays to help the Gats win sevoral games aga in<~ weaker oppone nts. equally important defickndes in spec ial-teams play- have cost -th e Bobcats chances for sc,e ral ,b ig wins (K-S tatc. N.C. State. Marshall m 1998, etc.). As the talent level and team speed improves for the Cats up and down the roster. expect return and coverage teait1 s to improve. Better coverage to go along with perhaps the best ~icking duo in the conference (AliAmerican punter candidate Dave Zastudil and highl y tout~d true freshman kicker Kevm Kerr) could also provide the jump kick to get Ohio over the top, Another key will be the emergence of a Donnie White or an Arden Banks into a big-play, special-teams demon in the mold of Dennis Fitzgerald . Tevell Jones or Sean Williams. One .thing is for certain. this area will not be overlooked by the Bobcat coaches. 3 . 1,700 yards - In my estimation, that is the amount of yardage necessary from the quanerback position for the Bobcats to win a MAC championship. While Karecm Wilson was a threat to rush for 1.000 yards, hi s passing totals fell short of providing the_ Bobcats adequate run/pass balance to win the elusive MAC title. (Ohio got about 1.400 yards out of the position last year.) · . Dan Jordan , if he is to httlhe 1,700 mark, will most hkely do it by throwing for somewhere around 1.200 yards and rushing for about 500, give or take a few here or there . That could be. good enough tf the running game from guys, like Chad Brinker. Jamel Patterson, Keith Brooks . and Raynald Ray can force opposing secondaries · to bring up the safeties in run support. In past years. this hal\ spelled doom for a Bobcat offense often unable, or ilt the least he>itant. to throw. This year, it could spell doom for the opposition. 4. Senior leadership- In the past few years. a scoior or two has come from deep on the depth chan to earn a starting job and play a vital role m Bobcat success. Who will be this year's Chris Evan s. Sid Hall or Brian Fortman? That question probably won't be answered until well into preseason practices, but m~ hunch _is someone like Ewane Nanji wtll step to the lorefront 10 his ·last season. Senior leadership from entrenched starters like Mike Varone alreiJPy seems solid. 5·. Big plays - Ohio will not win a ~AC title by grinding it out three yards at a ttme. Ohto wtll wm •a MAC title with a grinding running game that earns yardage whenever it wants to and a passing game that throws over a defense's heads when that defense begs it to . To do that, a team need s a solid offensive line, speed at the skill positions (or skill at the speed positions) and . most importantly. an appropriate attitude. Ali tho se ingredients are avmlable to Coach Grobe and staff th is fall. There yo u have it . Seems easy enough. Five s te~ . •o a Mid-American Conference title . This year's tca111 might not come as close to a title as its three predecessors, but it has a better shot going into the season.
