Eight of 12 Canadian fighters have already been eliminated from competition at the Games and, by the time Lewis moves into action for the first time tonight, that number could be nine because Montreal middleweight Otis Grant fights ahead of the six-foot-four, 211-pounder from Kitchener, Ont. a Because there are just four super-heavyweights competing, Lewis, 21, has been a spectator while fighters in other divisions battled it out to reach the final four. Lewis steps into the ring tonight against Carlos Barcelete of Brazil. In the other semifinal, Jorge Gonzales of Cuba take on American Riddick Bowe. All four are assured of at least a bronze medal just for showing up. hia is the Pan-Am while Bowe was a world junior titleholder as a light-heavyweight in 1985, two years after Lewis won the junior super-heavy- weight crown. a / his turn But amateur trophies and titles, as Lewis will tell you, don’t pay the bills. The fighter has been searching for sponsors in recent months in a bid to meet training expenses incurred in commuting from Kitchener to Toronto. i “You're not getting paid for it and you can't get a job,’ he said, “It’s training all day. You have to look for sponsors to out.” yn td however, doesn't attract too many humanitar- ians and Lewis reports limited success in fund-raising. “T've received some money but all of it is gone,” he said. The answer may be to turn professional now, rather than wait for the 1888 Olympic Games. GETS OFFERS “T’ve had a lot of offers. It's really hard to turn down the money because I need it. But I have certain goals in mind and I want to take care of them first.” In the meantime, Canadian boxing officials have been working on keeping Lewis's mind on the fight inside the ring. They see Lewis as a sleeping giant, a boxer with great skills who needs to work on the mental aspect of the game. Canadian head coach Taylor Gordon reports progress towards that goal, noting an improvement in Lewis's attitude towards the sport in recent months.

His troops then responded by going out and getting their men — defeating the favored U.S. team 3-0 to advance to the gold-medal round of the softball championships at the Pan-American Games. Canada is the defending Pan-Am champion, but the team was not n championship form Monday night when it lost 7-4 to the U.S. in an 11-inning game in which Canada left sevep men on base. It seems that Pearce, a jultant with The women’s team — also the defending Pan-Am champion — won its opening playoff game Tuesday night, defeating Venezuela 2-0 on a one-hitter by pitcher Debbie Tidy of Vancouver. Designated hitter Donna Veale of North Battleford, Sask., hit a two-out triple with twon on in the bottom of the fifth to give Canada the victory Under the playoff format, the Canadian men and women only need one victory to win the gold, while their opponents would have to win twice.

They were caught up in the hoopla of the Games, including a disease that's sweeping the city — pin fever. Everywhere you look, people are trading lapel pins from their favorite team, sport or country. “One thing is that we had to get rid of some of the distractions — Pan-Am Games and the fooferaw and all that stuff, trading pins and taking pictures,” Pearce said after the game. “I mean we had cameras in the dugout. Guys were thinking about where they're going to get their next pin instead of where they're going to hit the ball. So we barred the cameras and the pins from the ballpark. No more pin trading until we get this thing under control.” RETAINED CONTROL Things were under cntro! Tuesday for Canada. Glen Jevne of iwin, Alta., threw a two-hitter and got better as the game went on, striking out six of the best 11 batters. Jevne, with a 3-0 Pan-Ams record, struck out 11 in total and gave up three walks, which all came in the first two innings. MILLAR EYEING THE GOLD ASTROS BEAT CARDS Ryan pitches for win By The Canadian Press Nolan Ryan may be the best pitcher in baseball's National League this season. And he finally got a victory to prove it. Ryan énded his eight-game losing streak Tuesday night by combining on a three-hitter with Dave Smith as the Houston Astros beat the St. Louis Cardinals 4-0. Ryan, 5-13, won for the first time since June 12, a span that included three no-decisions and matched the longest losing skid of his career. He pitched seven innings and gave up three hits, walked two and struck out nine. “I didn't worry about it that much,” Ryan said. “It was one of those things that sooner or later was going to come. “I think the guys felt much worse about it than I did.” The Houston hitters had failed Ryan, scoring only 13 runs in the eight starts he lost. > “You can’t get too high or too low in your career and that’s the kind of attitude that helps you weather bad streaks like this,” Ryan said. Ryan lowered his earned run average to 2.95, third-best in the league. He has struck out 190, one behind teammate Mike Scott for the NL Lead, in 1492-3 innings and allowed only 109 hits. Smith pitched two hitless innings to get his 20th save. In other NL games Tuesday, it was: the Pittsburgh Pirates 7, the Cincinnati Reds 4; the New York Mets 7, the San Francisco Giants 3; the San Diego Padres 9, the Philadelphia Ph 9, the Chicago Cubs 5. ies 4 in 11 innings; and the Atlanta Braves Host Houston pulled within 1'%2 games of NL West co-leaders Cincinnati and San Francisco. In the American League, Toronto pitcher Dave Stieb, 18-5, pitched a three-hitter for eight innings for his seventh straight victory, and Tom Henke relieved for his club-record 28th save after George Bell hit his 37th homer — a two-run blast in the eighth inning — as the Blue Jays beat the Oakland Athletics 2-1. In other AL games Tuesday, it was: the Cleveland Indians 9, the Milwaukee Brewers 8 in 12 innings as the Brewers’ Paul Molitor hit in his 33rd straight game; the Detroit Tigers 11, the Minnesota Twins 2; the Boston Red Sox 14, the Chicago White Sox 8; the Texas Rangers 3, the Kansas City Royals 1; the Baltimore Orioles 4, the California Angels 1; and the New York Yankees 4, the Seattle Mariners 3. METS 7 GIANTS 2 Dweight Gooden won his 10th game with home-run support from Howard Johnson, Tim Teufel and Kevin McReynolds as New York beat San Francisco. Gooden, 10-4, gave up two runs, one of them earned, on six hits in seven innings. He also had an RBI single in the second inning that made it 2-2. Gooden raised his career record to 50-13 at night, compared to 18-13 by day. Johnson's three-run homer, his 29th, broke a 2-2 tie in the third inning against Atlee Hammaker, 8-9. Johnson set a team record of 80 RBI by a third baseman, one more than Richie Hebner had in 1979. McReynolds hit his 22nd homer and Teufel his his 10th, both solo shots at Shea Stadium. PIRATES 7 REDS 4 Barry Bonds hit two home runs and John Cangelosi and Bobby Bonilla also homered for Pittsburgh. Cangelosi’s pinch homer gave Pittsburgh a 5-4 lead in the seventh against Rob Murphy, 6-4. Bonds hit his 19th homer and Bonilla hit his 11th in the ninth. Bonilla, who also hit two doubles, and Bonds drove in three runs each. PADRES 9 PHILLIES 4 John Kruk drove in five runs, including a two-run single in the 11th inning, and Benito Santiago hit two homers for San Diego. Kruk's bases-loaded single broke a 4-4 tie against Wally Ritchie, 2-1. Santiago followed with a three-run homer, his 13th. BRAVES 9 CUBS 5 Dion James homered and drove in four runs as Atlanta ended a five-game. losing streak. James's RBI grounder gave the Braves a 6-5 lead in the sixth inning against Ed Lynch, 1-8. James, whose leadoff double sparked a four-run first inning, hit a three-run homer in the eighth off Greg Maddux. Hawaii to move to coast HONOLULU (AP) — The financially troubled Hawaii Islanders, a Pacific Coast League baseball team affili ated with the Chicago White Sox, will move to a U.S. mainland city next year, owner David Elmore says. The new home of the 27-year-old team has yet to be chosen, but Elmore said Monday night that Colorado Springs, Colo., Sacramento, Calif., and Salt Lake City, Utah, were being considered. Econoimes, Hawaii's geo- graphical location, and frus tration with the White Sox were among the reasons given by Elmore for the move. Elmore said he pumped more than $3 million into the club since he bought it in 1981, and expected to lose about $350,000 this year. Most years, the team aver aged only 2,000 paying cus tomers a game since moving to Aloha Stadium from the more centrally located old Honolulu Stadium in 1976. “I've been a little frust- rated, asI think we all have, in our affiliation this year with the White Sox, not be- cause I don't lik them but be. cause we really didn’t have a team like we've had in the past,” Elmore said. “And I realize that every year we have to go back and sort of take what's left in terms of player development contracts,” Elmore said “People don't come to us first. They may like us and think we're good people but geographically, from their standpoint, we're undesire. ables.” Meanwhile, Elmore said he has bought a Northwest League team, which he will rename the Hawaii Islands and bring to Honolulu next team it was, but the Honolulu season Star-Bulletin reported it was Elmore did not say which the one in Salem, Ore.

Castlégar News INDIANAPPOLIS (CP) — Moments after clearing the last rail to win the gold medal in the equestrian stadium jumping competition Tuesday at the Pan-American Games, Canadian Ian Millar was already looking ahead at the next obstacle. Millar, who at 40 is the veteran of Canada's respected equestrian team, is one of the country's best bets for a gold medal at the Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea, in September 1988. The only problem is that Millar doesn’t know if he or the equestrian team.will be there. The problem isn't politics, which has plagued the Seoul Games, but money. It will be expensive to send Canada’s equestrian team to the Far East. The team must go on a major fund-raising campaign to help pay the athletes’ way to Korea and also charter a separate jet to send its horses. Millar estimates it will cost about $200,000. On top of that there would be the expenses needed to quarantine the horses before the trip — anormal procedure beofre the animals are shipped overseas for any equestrian event. Winning the Pan-Am gold medal in the individiual stadium jumping will help the fundraising, said Millar, as will the other golds Canada earned in the team dressage, individual dressage and team jumping. “It's tough to get that kind of money,” Millar said after he rode hs 11-year-old chestnut gelding, Big Ben, to a clean round in the final ride Tuesday to win the Pan-Am title with a total of just 9.2 faults over five rounds. “We'll have to do excessive private fund-raising to be able to go to Seoul. Anytime the fund-raisers knock on the door and say they're representing the team that won the gold medal at the Pan-Ams and that we really think we deserve to go to Seoul and win one there, I think that helps a lot.” American Rodney Jenkins, on Czar, took the silver with 14.25 faults and Alberto Valdez of Mexico, aboard Febrero 17, won the bronze with a score of 15.21. Lisa Carlsen of Schomberg, Ont., was third before the final two jumps Tuesday, but she knocked down four rails in the fourth ride and eventually finished sixth overall at 25.31. Millar, a farmer and equestrian consultant from Perth, Ont., has been on three Canadian Olympic teams since 1972, the year after he was first named to the national team. So far, an Olympic medal has always eluded him. But Miller has been one of the most consistent jumpers in the world over the last few years and both he and jumping coach Tom Gayford believe Big Ben is peaking at the right time for the Olympics. “The yanks aré probably the best team in the world right now, so winning here means a lot,” said Gayford.
