McKin-ney. McKinney, the 1981 World Cup giant slalom championship, champion-ship, has jumped back into first place in the overall World Cup points standings, thanks to a win Sunday in St. Gervais, France. The win, her first of the season in giant slalom, gave McKinney 142 World Cup points, seven more than Switzerland's Erika Hess.

Rounding out the top five were Fabienne Serrat of France and Irene Epple of West Germany. Other American Amer-ican finishers included Cindy Nelson in 10th place and Heidi Preuss in 13th. Last Friday, the American . 13 ix c .snrm; women's contingent demon strated its depth at Megeve, France as Maria Maricich came out of the 40th starting position to take second place in a World Cup downhill, 19, hundredths of a second behind Switzerland's Maria Walliser. . For Maricich it was a welcome moment, capping a two-year struggle following a total knee reconstruction after a crash at Altenmarkt. Other American finishers in that race included Holly Flanders in a tie for eighth, Cindy Nelson in 21st and Chris tin Cooper in 31st. However, American skiers were less successful on the second downhill run at Megeve the following day. Maricich . again posted the fastest time by a U.S. skier, but this time she could do no better than 17th. Other Americans included Cindy Oak, Cindy Nelson and Holly Flanders in 27th, 28th and 29th, respectively. Taking first place in Sundays Sun-days race was Elisabeth ' Kirchler of Austria. Meanwhile, on the men's tour, two-time defending World Cup champion Phil Mahre picked up some valuable points Sunday in Kitzbuhel, Austria as he skied to a third-place finish in slalom behind Sweden's Ingemar Stenmark and Austria's Aus-tria's Christian Orlainsky. Mahre's third place finish, combined with a 13th place in a downhill held Saturday at Kitzbuhel, gave him first place in the combined event. The slalom points and the combined points together lifted Mahre into eighth place in the overall World Cup standings, 39 points behind Peter Mueller of Switzerland. Just ahead of Mahre in the standings is Stenmark, who grabbed his second World Cup slalom win of the 1983 season Sunday. It was on the same Kitzbuhel hill that Stenmark posted an astounding astound-ing three-second margin in winning a World Cup slalom a year ago. Rounding out the top five were Luxembourg's Marc Girardelli in fourth and Paolo De Chiesa of Italy in fifth. Steve Mahre, Phil's twin brother, finished sixth. While Phil Mahre isn't exactly considered a downhill down-hill specialist, he was the Girls' basketball Miner press doesn't impress Union Cougars The good news is that the Park City girls' basketball team seems to have developed a successful full-court full-court press. It paid off with six steals against the Lady Cougars of Union High School last Thursday. The bad news is that ! nothing fels worked for the Miners that 1 day, v as they were clobbered 64-15 in a nonleague game. Their record now stands at 2-5. The full court press was introduced in-troduced the previous week by Coach Maggie Haun in the North Summit game. The Miners also tried to run a fast break off the press, but it did not work quite the way Haun had hoped. "The team has the ability to run the fast break; when they do it works," said Haun. "It is just a case of them remembering to use it and having someone down the court to receive the pass." At the Union court in Roosevelt, the 2-A Lady Cougars quickly pulled away from the Miners 15-2 in the first quarter. The Miners scored only one point in the second quarter, while Union added 17 to make the score The Branding Iron RESTAURANT 'PfiRKWESII ; Enjoy panoramic and a superb menu, featuring: steak, chicken, veal, halibut, Chuck Wagon Salad Bar, daily German special, Branding Iron cheese soud Rsenatlons: 649-1726 Parties up to 80 accepted.

At the end of the third quarter it was 56-9. By the"'end of the game the Miners hadcom- mitted 29 turnovers. Union, with three players at 511", made the most of its superior height.

Sadi Nacki, Vicki Holmes and Joyce Olsen each had two points. Because of the Miners' lack of personnel, four of the Park City girls played both junior varsity and varsity.
