Last chance time for Bulls, Pistons CHICAGO (AP) — Somebody forgot to tell Craig Hodges the Chicago Bulls don’t have a strong bench. Hodges, averaging just 3.1 points in Chicago's first 14 playoff games, scored 19 and made all four of his three-point attempts Friday night as the Bulls beat the Detroit Pistons 109- 91 to even the Eastern Conference finals 3-3. The seventh and deciding game will be played today at the Palace in. Auburn Hills, Mich. The winner will advance to the NBA final against the Portland Trail Blazers, who eliminated Phoenix in six games to win the Western Conference title. “This game doesn’t mean a thing if we don’t win Sunday,”’ Hodges said. “I want to win a ring this year and if we concentrate on what we're doing and our goal, we'll get it.’” If the Bulls win, they would become only the fifth team to overcome a 2-0 deficit and win a seveg-game NBA series. Portland did it Tast, beating Philadelphia in the 1977 final. Hodges played 26 minutes because of John Paxson’s ankle injury. The Pistons’ bench outscored the Bulls’ reserves 183-115 through the first five playoff games. But with elimination staring them “That’s the needed.”” The Bulls also played Detroit-style defence, holding the Pistons to just 37.6 per cent shooting from the floor. The Pistons knew they were in trouble early. Jackson rested Jordan for the first 4:34 of the second quar- ter, but ‘Stacey King scored four type of effort we Fans pay price of success EDMONTON (CP) — Fans of the NHL's Edmonton Oilers will pay more to watch the 1990 Stanley Cup champions next season, a club spokesman confirmed. “There will be a ticket-price in- crease this year because we have not had one for three years,’’ said Bill Tuele, the club’s director of public relations. The amount will be decided by team owner Peter Pocklington and general manager Glen Sather and an- nounced in about two weeks when the season ticket i points and Hodges hit a thi pe as the Bulls went on a 13-2 burst. By the time Jordan got back in the game, the Bulls’ lead had gone from 21-20 to 34-22. The move paid even in the face, the Bulls’ subs Detroit's 37-21 in Game 6. “Craig Hodges gave us 19 good, hard points,’’ said Michael Jordan, who led Chicago with 29 points, 18 of them in the pivotal third quarter. bigger when a well ed Jordan scored 18 points as Chicago outscored Detroit 33-19 in the third quarter to take an 80-63 lead that wasn’t threatened in the fourth quar-* ter. SkyDome still inspires awe after inaugural year TORONTO (CP) — June 5, 1989: Panic. Workmen scurry to paint the foul line on the just-erected outfield fence. The Blue Jays and Milwaukee Brewers are left to mill about after batting practice is cancelled. Chief umpire Marty Springstead takes an inspection walk around the facility before applying his dramatic seal of approval. Finally, the first of many sellout crowds spills through the gates of Toronto’s brand-new, concrete-and- blue, $600-million SkyDome. And while there were thrills aplenty for the patrons, most went home only half-satisfied as the Jays lost to the Milwaukee Brewers, 5-3. On Tuesday, the downtown stadium with the state-of-the-art retractable roof celebrates the an- niversary of that first baseball game. This time the Minnesota Twins will provide the opposition As a baseball park, the SkyDome violates the standards of traditionalists.

Tickets ranged from $6.: 50 t to $27 in 1989-90. Tuele said an increase is needed because “‘there has been a steady erosion in the profits of this hockey club."” He did not reveal profit figures. “We have shown a remarkable degree of restraint during the last three years,”’ Tuele said. ‘‘We won the Stanley Cup in 1988 and didn’t raise ticket prices.”” That was the year Pocklington con- cluded a deal to send Wayne Gretzky, Marty McSorley and Mike Krushelnyski to the Los Angeles Kings for Jimmy Carson, No. | draft choice Martin Gelinas, other draft picks and $18 million. Nords new coach faces daunting job QUEBEC (CP) — The leadership of the Quebec Nordiques was par- tially clarified when general manager pierre Page announced the removal of Michel Bergeron as head coach. But Page left everyone guessing who will replace Bergeron, whose second term as coach of the National Hockey League team lasted only one season —six fewer than his previous stint in Quebec between 1980 and 1987. Page said he will announce a replacement soon. However, it is widely believed Dave Chambers, the former York Univer- sity coach who was Page's assistant with the Minnesota North Stars last season, figures somewhere in the equation Bergeron did not attend the news conference Thursday but said he will meet reporters today to announce whether he will accept the club’s job offer in the radio-and-television field. His coaching contract, worth a repor- ted $250,000 annually, has four years to run and will be honored by the Down to Nordiques. Page said: ‘‘Michel has nothing to be ashamed of. He’s not the one to be blamed . . . It’s not one person who is going to turn us around.” Chambers has a reservation at a Quebec City hotel for June 5. He met with Page and Nordiques executive Gilles Leger at his home in Toronto on Wednesday. Reached by telephone at his home Thursday, Chambers, who has coached for more than two decades, mostly at the Canadian collegiate level, said, ‘‘l guess they've decided, but I wasn’t suppaged to say anything."’ Asked for his assessment of the Nordiques, Chambers said, ‘‘It’s like an over-aged junior club. You have to be patient working with that type of team.”” If he is to replace Bergeron, who remained popular with the players and the public, Chambers faces a number of challenges, starting with improving the Nordiques’ 12-61-7 record last year. final 32 in French Open PARIS (AP) — Jennifer Capriati, a 14-year-old with the tennis skills of a seasoned pro, breezed to a straight set victory over 12th-seeded Judith Wiesner of Austria today to reach the fourth round of the French Open. She beat Wiesner 6-4, 6-4 in 73 minutes in her first match on a Grand Slam centre court. Capriati, last year’s junior women’s champion here, has yet to drop a set in her first senior Grand Slam appearance. “Her game, her ability — she is in the top 10,”” Wiesner said. ‘‘With her size, she doesn’t seem like a 14-year- old. She seems grown up."” Top-ranked Steffi Graf, in a match postponed one day by rain and darkness Friday evening, beat Italy’s Sandra Cecchini 6-2, 6-3 Second-seeded Monica Seles beat Leila Meskhi of the Soviet Union 7-6, 7-6, winning both tiebreakers 7-4. The 16-year-old Yugoslav has won 28 con- secutive matches over six tournamen- ts. Next up for Capriati is Mercedes Paz, the unseeded Argentine who up* set defending women's champion Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario in the second round. Paz won her third. round match over Celine Cohen of Switzerland 6-1, 7-5 No. 7 Mary Joe Fernandez, Ann Grossman, Manuela Maleeva and Natalia Zvereva also moved into the final 16. Maleeva's youngest sister, Magdalena, was beaten by, 16th- seeded Laura Gildemeister of Peru, who gets Seles next. Gildemeister was the last player to defeat Seles, some 2% months ago. They join No. 4 Gabriela Sabatini, No. 6 Conchita Martinez, No. 8 Katerina Maleeva, No. 11 Jana Novotna and No. 15 Nathalie Tauziat, who advanced to the foul round Friday. In the men’s field today, Goran Ivanisevic, who upset second-seeded Boris Beckep in the first round, ad- vanced to the final 16 with a 7-6, 6-1, 7-5 victory over Patrick Kuhnen of West Germany. He next plays un seeded Swede Niklas Kroon, who beat Amos Mansdorf.
