James (Buster) Douglas, who upset Mike Tyson for the heavyweight title, then lost it in a dismal, out-of-shape performance against the unbeaten Holyfield, was not on the ballot. For the second straight year, the award for trainer of the year was won by George Benton, who trains Holyfield, undisputed lightweight champion Pernell Whitaker and Meldrick Taylor, the World Boxing A iation welterweight i Hershiser returns to Dodgers VERO BEACH, Fla. — Orel Hershiser took a major step toward returning to the Los Angeles Dodgers’ pitching rotation when he threw 54 painless pitches during a spring training workout. “I didn’t do a whole lot,’’ he said Thursday after icing down his right shoulder, which was surgically rebuilt last April 27. ‘“Today was the first day I let myself think like'it was even a game."’ Hershiser, 32, the 1988 NL Cy Young Award winner, threw a 22- pitch segment and a 14-pitch segment to hitters at Holman Stadium before an 18-pitch segment on the sidelines with just a catcher involved.

What most see is an average club hovering around -500 that appears destined for ari early exit from the Stanley Cup playoffs. It’s a team beset by injuries, especially to captain Mark Messier, and a team that has had trouble scoring, been dogged by contract hassles and has had trouble replacing the departed Jari Kurri and* Randy Gregg. Inconsistency has become the Oilers’ trademark this season. Edmonton wasn’t a team being considered among the favorites before the trading deadline. After it passed, with no influx of talent, the club’s chances of defending the Stanley Cup appear smaller. Sather tried. He said he proposed a three-way deal that would have brought Har- tford right-winger Kevin Dineen to the Oilers, but it fell through on the deadline. He also wanted Hartford’s Ron Francis, who went to Pit- tsburgh. Sather ultimately failed to make a major deal because his trading. par- tners all wanted either the older players who had helped the Oilers win five Stanley Cups in the past seven years, or the team’s best young players. When the deadline passed he was left with only minor-leaguer Brad Aitken, obtained from Pittsburgh for another minor-leaguer,; Kim Issel. “*We've been playing without a lot of guys all year long,’’ Sather said. ‘‘We're getting ready to get a lot of these (injured) people back, and 40,,g0.abead and make,.a.lot of Spring training begins SUNDAY NIGHT B-I-N-G-0 By The Associated Press Roger Clemens was back on the mound and Darryl Strawberry was making his Dodgers debut as the exhibition baseball season began Thursday. wholesale changes is really saying that we don’t think we have a chance to be competitive in the playoffs. “*But to go ahead and make a deal now because every reporter in town is saying we're going to make a deal, I don’t.think that makes a lot of sen- se. I” just think this is the right decision and that’s the way it is. “*What you see is what you get.’” What you get is a team playing without Messier, Charlie Huddy, Anatoli Semenov, Ken Linseman, Kevin Lowe and Glenn Anderson, all out with various injuries. What you get is a team concerned about contract disputes involving Dave Brown, Messier and others, Problems that Sather said have been among the most unsettling to the team this year. ‘What you get is the uncertainty ing the club’s i Grant Fuhr returned from a league suspension for substance abuse, taking away the No. | job from Bill Ranford, last year’s playoff hero.

And what you get is a team whose general manager recently chastised it for generally poor play and promised changes if things don’t pick up. “There's a few things we can do if they're not inspired,’’ said Sather. But with the passing of the trade deadline and only an exchange of minor-leaguers to his credit, all of Sather’s cards are on the table. And there’s not much there. What it comes down to, assuming a3 MARK MESSIER . » « playoff question mark Messier, Lowe, Huddy and Ander- son enter the playoffs healthy, is that Sather is again pinning his hopes on the old warhorses. As the rest of the NHL learned last year, you can never count those players out. “There are a lot of things that could change over the summer if it doesn’t work out this spring,"’ Sather said. But for now, the older players who have helped the Oilers win five Stanley Cups ‘‘will have another shot at it.”” continued from page B1 The Assoc for 115 corporations.

St. Peter Lutheran Church There was a great deal of discus- sion about peace when the coalition forces challenged the Iraqi invasion and pillaging of Kuwait. Prayers were said. Messages of concern were sent to Prime Minister Brian Mul- roney. | don’t personally know of anyone who was or is opposed to Peace However, it is often overlooked that the maintenance of peace con- tinues to carry a price tag. And, regrettably, there are those times when the price has to be paid. Many of us remember how painful it was for British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain to admit that hard truth when confronted by the Nazi menace in 1939. The bully who swaggers down the street brandishing weapons en- dangering the lives of others simply has to be dealt with. It would be easier to ignore the whole process by fleeing to some safe spot. But ulti- mately the bully has to be faced and a price has to be paid. While it may be preferable to view life through rose-colored glasses, reality cannot be ignored when it comes to that darker side of human- kind in general. A reality that Jesus Christ expressed in these sobering words: “For from within, out of men’s hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewd- ness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly.”” (Mark 7:21) That disturbing assessment not only explains the ongoing turmoil between individuals, groups and nations, but also the spiritual aliena- tion between man and his Creator, an alienation that desperately needed to be resolved. Thank God that He did not with- draw to some heavenly Yonder Region to escape from having. anything to do with rebellious and alienated humankind. Rather, as this present Season of Lent reminds us, God came to be with us in the person of Jesus Christ But much more than that, God came to wage a war on our behalf which was completely beyond our human capacity to wage. All because the opposition involved the very powers of Hell itself. A: brutal battle which seemed to spell defeat for the Lord himself when He died on the cross. However, His miraculous resurrec- tion on the third day proved that Christ had gained the victory, not only for Himself but for all of us. The forgiveness of sins and gift of eternal life thereby achieved means reconciliation and peace with Heaven. For all who lean on, trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
