Here Heiden is shown set- ting new rink record of 14:56:90 in the Men’s 10,000 U.S. Speedskaters Expect Medals, Wins in Olympics By MICHAEL V. USCHAN MILWAUKEE (UPI) — The U.S. speedskating team at the 1980 Olympics has a chance to win more medals and be more dominant than any American team in history. And that assessment comes from no one less than Eric Heiden,the Madison, Wis., skater who has been the world champion the last three years. The U.S. men’s and women’s teams were chosen Sunday and Heidensaid they will be very strong in the Games at Lake Placid. “It’s pretty good,” Heiden said of the combined team. ‘‘We have good skaters and we have lot of th.” Asked if it might be the strongest single team ever assembled by any country he nodded and said, “Yeah, maybe. I think it might be.”” Heiden said the team won 20 of24 medals this year in international competition and he wants that kind of success at the Olympics. “You haveto be kind of lucky with the weather and everything. But I think we can probably do it again,” he said. Peter Schotting, coach of the men’s teams, was not as free with superlatives as Heiden. But he said the team has been dominating skating the last few year and he hopes it can do as well in 1980. “Tt lookslike this wil be the strongest team we've ever had,” he said. ‘With the level of competition we've seenthe last ten days we maybe the strongest in the world right now. “There are 27 medals to divide at the Olympic games. In 1976 we won six out of the 27. PersonallyI would be satisfied to come out with a minimum of that same amount again. “But writers in foreign nations, particuliarly Russia, have said we could win anywhere from 10 and 13 medals.” Ten skaters were named to the men’s team and seven to the women’s team,with nine of them having taken part in the 1976 Olympics. Men: Heiden, 21, Madison, Wis.; Peter Mueller, 24, Wildcats Keep Spotin Cage Ranking NEW YORK (UPI) — Kentucky Coach Joe Hall knew his team would be hard-pressed to beat Notre DameSaturday night. Afterall, the Wildcats WERE missing three important players. And the Fighting Irish WEREundefeated andplaying at full strength. But Kentucky. behind the leadership of Kyle Macy, perservered for an 86-80 victory over Notre Dame andheld unto the No. 2 spot — behind Duke — in the fifth week of the UPI Board of Coaches Ratings. The Wildcats were playing without veteran Dwight Anderson, who quit the team, and freshmen Sam Bowie and Dirk Minniefield, both of whom were suspended by Hailior disciplinary reasons. But the undermanned Kentucky squad fought hard for the victory and that's what made it so special to Hall. “This is the most satisfying win I've ever had,” Hall said. ‘They (the team) couldn't havefelt as good as I did, But they deserved to.” Duke, whichfinished off the decade by winning the title of its own Iron DukeClassic, easily outdistanced Kentucky to hang onto the No.1 spot. ; Bill Foster's Blue Devils scored a 92-67 victory over Vermont and then went into overtime before recording an 87-75 triumph over Cincinnati in the championship game. The action, taken by the Tournament Policy Board during its Dec. 9, meeting in West Palm Beach, Fla., was based on the fact that insufficient commitments had been received from players. The concept is expected to be given further study by the Tournament Policy Board during the 1980 season. In other actions, the Board proposed a number of changes to the PGA Tour Regulations which will become effective upon ratification by the Board at its Jan. 22, 1980, meeting. Among the proposed Regulation changes are: (1) expansion of the number of Leiaial qualifying through ‘‘open’’ qualifiers from two to four; (2) an increase in the number of events in which a non-PGA Tour member may participate from three to ten; (3) achancetothe eligibility requirements for ‘‘open”’ qualifiers, providing that the special membership category of PGA Tour Past Champions may enter “‘open’’ qualifiers; (4) that non-members of the PGA Tour who makethe cutin one eventare eligible and exemptfor the next tournaMent in sequence until reaching the maximum numberof events (10), or they otherwise become eligible for membership; (5) that a non-PGA Tour member who meets the minimum performance guidelines in PGA Tour cosponsored or approved events shall immediately become eligible for membership in the PGA Tour; (6) that “‘open’’ qualifiers which were formerly voluntary at open or cosponsored events will become mantory; and (7) that the minimum number of cards” to be awarded annually to qualifiers at the PGA Tour Qualifying Schools will "> *~ and the numberof ‘'cards” to be awarded at any given Qualifying School be announced in advance.

On Saturday Heiden set a rink record in the 1,000 meters of 1:14.37 to break his old markof1:16.56. He mayalso have broken his own worldrecord of 1:14.99 but it may not be recognized by internationalskating authorities because no other. countries competed in the event. The women’s 3,000 meter race wentto his sister, Beth, who had a timeof 4:37.30 to beat Swider who had a 4:41.47, Heiden has been the dominant male skater in the “ world for three years and will be bidding for gold medalsinall five events he will race in. However, he doesn’t give himself muchof a chance at that. “I think I can probably win one or two gold medals and place well in the other distances,” he said. Schotting is a little more optimistic about Heiden. “The chance is there. If he doesit, he doesit. Butit depends on the weather circumstances and other things,” Schotting said. “Certainly it is a challenge to skaters of other nations having to suffer in the dominanceof the United States the last few years.” easy entry Grain Bins EARLY BIRD SALE Protect yourcrop investment ORDER NOWand SAVE Storage costs less with properly sized bins.
