Kim, 18, scored 336 points over 70 meters and 347 points at the target to better records held by two Soviet women archers, Marfel and Shah, by 6 and 5 points, respectively. IN FAVOR: The top administrator of the NCAA says he's in favor of giving additional aid to athletes to help with travel from home to campus and to go toward a spending and clothing allowance. The stipend, however, would be based solely on need, NCAA executive director Dick Schultz said. "I don't think I'd be in favor of saying, 'All right, we're going to do this for every athlete.' But I think if you put in a need-base- d formula, then you would allow the truly needy student to have those things," Schultz said in an interview with The Dominion-Po- st of Morgantown, W. Va. "I feel that if we recruit athletes and bring them in, each has a right to live like the average student because he or she can't work during the school year."

Johnson admitted on June 12 that he knowingly used illegal steroids to build himself into the world's fastest man. "Our federation is taking the doping problem in a most serious manner," Nebiolo said. "We believe our federation is leading the campaign.

Estaba said he intends to file suit against the NCAA next week. South Alabama President Frederick P. Whiddon said the university was raising money for Estaba's defense and supported the lawsuit "100 percent." At issue is an NCAA ruling that Estaba used up his eligibility by playing three years in junior college and one season at South Alabama, where he helped lead the Jaguars to the NCAA Tournament last season. Estaba, a native of Caracas, Venezuela, contends he only played two years in junior college because he lost one year due to an injury. NCAA Division I schools, however, do not accept medical hardships from junior colleges. pain of 10k By BOB HUDSON Assistant Sports Editor According to Freedom Run overall men's champion Gordon Hyde, the $300 first prize in Tuesday's race wasn't much of an incentive especially durrun. ing the "I just wanted to finish," Hyde said. "When it hurts that bad, you don't care about money. I was fifth with about a mile to go and was sucking air... I was dying the whole race. I'm not a real 10K fan. I hurt too much the whole race."

That's when match play Rod reigns supreme and it is player against player hoping to advance to the quarterfinals, semis and the prestigious finale on Sunday. But while it's amusing to see players sweat over little five-foputts, what most forget about Riverside Country Club is the amount of strategy involved in playing a match play tournament here. There are some holes where a competitor can spray the ball and get away with it, par-5- s that are reachable in two but great care is required not to come away with a double bogey and par-3- s where it's better to putt 15 feet uphill than five feet downhill.

But even this green is protected from the long knockers by a trap placed front left and water behind the green. While No. 6 (par-4- ) and 7 (par-5- ) may be forgiving, No. 8 has an elevated green that is hard to hold, especially if the second shot in downwind. Now getting back to the back nine. No. 10 (387 yards) may be a short par-4- , but anything that strays right is wet. The green is heavily sloped and with the greens rolling very quick, a putt from above the hole is just plain suicide. No. 11 crosses the Provo River and the only difficult thing about this hole is the two or two-tiere-d decided on the back nine which can be deceptively easy that is unless a player gets too greedy. There are several nicknames that have been attached to holes among them "birdie or corner" after "amen alley" the few holes of Masters fame. Meanwhile, the front nine is nothing to turn your nose up at. The No. 1 handicap hole on the course, No. 4, is so long (460 yards) it's tedious, yet the only "difficulty is the water hazard to the left and a single trap on the right part of the green.
