_ Vancouver to
-hold ski congress

: TENERINE,
islands (CP) — The 1985
International Ski Federation
Congress will be held in
Vancouver, the skiing organ-
ization announced

; Vancouver was picked
over Baden Bien ‘Wein, Aus-
tria by a vote of 47-37 on the
final day of the 1981 con-
gress, which was held on this
esort island off the coast of
Moracco.

“This will be a great
opportunity for the ski peo-
le in Canada to get an idea
f what goes on at FIS
Federation Internationale
le Ski)," said Canadian del-
gate Dr. Peter Andrews of
Vancouver.

“Unfortunately, because
these meetings are held at
great distances from Canada,
we have only been able to
tend six or eight people (as
éompared to the Swiss dele-
Ration of 80) to the meeting.

CANARY .

“Sometimes, because of
the cost involved we only can
send one, We're looking for
about 1,000 delegates from 54
countries for the week-long
meetings in 1985, So it will be
apretty big thing, although I
don'tknow, what the dollar
figure will be like for the city
of Vancouver.

SPEND DOLLARS

Delegates have spent al-
most half a million dollars on
the Canary Islands this week.

The ski congresses, held
every second year, consider
and pass new legislation for
alpine, nordic, freestyle and
ground skiing, They also or-
ganize the variopus interna-
tional competition calendars,
and television rights for all
amateur skiing events.

The 1983 congress will be
held in Sydney, Australia,

It was announced that
Canada will hold three ski
sports next winter (1981-82).

Getting used to team

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Rup-
pert Jones, who came to San
Diego Padres in a trade with
New York Yankees for Jerry
Mumphery, says he's finally
starting to feel comfortable
with his new team.

Jones began the season in
a slump so severe he is not
batting just .222 after a
six-game hitting streak in
which he has batted .400.
Last night, he delivered the
game-winning single, a two-
run line drive in the fifth
inning to help defeat Mon-
treal Expos 3-1.

“I like playing with this
team,” said Jones, who raised
his runs batted in total to 16
with his hit off Bill’ Gullick-
son, 1-4. “We have a good
manager, .the players are
around my age -and we can
grow together as a unit.”

‘The victory also gave a big

lift to starting pitcher Rick
Wise, 2-3, making his first
trip to the mount since May 3
when he suffered. an inflamed
elbow.

After signing a five-year, 7
$1.75. million contract ‘last:

season, Wise fell victim to
various injuries limiting him
to 164 innings and a 6-8
won-lost record.
1 RUN ALLOWED

Wise walked only one bat-
ter in the seven innings, Gary
Carter's fifth home run to
lead off the second‘ inning
was the only run he allowed.

Carter's first home run
since April 26 gave the
Expos’ a momentary 1-0 lead,
but the Padres battled back
for three runs in the fifth to
hand Montreal its ninth loss
in 12: games. -.  _

Another Expos went. down
yesterday when right fielder
Ellis Valentine, who missed

nine consecutive. games be-
fore returning to the lineup
Monday, left in the third
inning after reaggravating
his left hamstring,

“He'll be out at least 10
days,” said Expo manager

Dick Williams, “I'd like to’

make some changes in the
lineup, but nobody's hitting.”

Joe Lefebvre triggered the
Padres fifth-inning rally with
a leadoff double. Luis Salazar
bounced back to the pitcher,
but Gullickson tried unsuce-
essfully to trap Lefebvre off
second and wound up retiring
noone, -

Tim Flannery bounced an
infield hit off Gullickson’s
glove to load the bases.

Ozzie Smithg stretched his
hitting streak to 10 games
witha single to score one run
and Jones capped the inning
with his tworun single to
right.

Team deserves
to move up to ©

a better deal

LOS ANGELES (AP) —
Lawyer Joseph Alioto, repre-
senting Oakland Raiders in
their antitrust’ suit against
the National
League, told a jury the
Raiders deserve to move up

to a better stadium and bet-

ter deal — just as the Rams
did when they moved to
Anaheim. :

In opening arguments yes-
terday in what is expected to
be a four-month trila, Alloto
compared the lucrative deal
the Rams got in Anaheim to
what he described. as inade-
quate facilities in Oakland.

“What's really involved
here is a concerted attempt
to relegate ‘Al Davis (Raid-
ers’ managing: partner) for
the rest of his life to an in-
ferior stadium situation,” Al!-
ioto said, noting Oakland has
no luxury boxes for which the
club would draw high fees.

Alioto, former mayor of
San Francisco, also coun-
tered what he said were NFL
accusations. the Raiders
wanted.to abandon Oakland
fans for the Los Angeles
Coliseum. ‘

“who has been more loyal i

to the Oakland fans than Al
Davis, giving them the show
he has for 14 years, giving
them the championship?” Al-
foto asked the jury of seven
women and three men, “But
it's a two-way. street.”

Oakland has not provided
the facilities needed to be
competitive, he said.

“So, fan loyalty is just an-
other smokescreen.

Qualifies for. sip th:
row of Indy'500_

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) —
Twenty years after his father
was killed while practising
for the Indianapolis 500 and
18, years. after his - older
brother made his first start
at Indy, Tony Bettenhausen
is making his debut.’ uat

The. father’s name was
Melvin, but: in racing circles

he was known, by His. nick-'

name, Tony.

“I think it put some pres-'
sure on me,” he said yes-
terday. “It’s a matter that
you hve a famous father that
ran here 14 times, was a na-
tional champion twice and
that you've got two brothers
that are very good race
‘drivers.

“It means people expect a
little “bit more. from you, I
think.” -

Bettenhausen, 29, qualified
his McLaren-Cosworth at an
average speed of 187.0138
miles an hour last weekend,
good for the sixth row of the
11-row, 83-car field.

AIMING ATINDY

“Being in the race is some-

‘thing Bottenbausen has been

. aiming zt since he began

driving ‘stock cars in 1969.

“I. watched my father run
here for the first time in
1957. Since then I guess I've
been here for 18 to 20 races.

“The last few years I’ve
been watching my brother
(Gary) race here, and last
year I worked on the piterew
of my father-in-law (Jim Mc-
Elreath).

“All the waiting was worth
it after the way I felt when I
qualified.” ;

Two of the first people to
congratulate him were Gary
‘and: thelr . other, . brother,

Merle, who drove. Indy-style’

cars, sprints and midgets
before losing an arm ‘in: a
racing accident.

Gary, 39, last year's us.
‘uto Club's dirt-car cham-
pion, will also be in the race

Sunday. He'll be starting his
, 18th Indy 500 and hoping. to
improve on last year's finish
when he began in 82nd
position and finished third,

“T feel very, very fortunate
to be in the situation I'm in,”
Tony said,

“There are a lot of. race
drivers all over the world,
and since this race began
only 685 have made it into
the race. And that goes back
70 years.”

Velenzuela loses
first major game

LOS: ANGELES (AP) —
Fernando Valenzuela’ has
shown himself to be nowmore
than a member of the human,
race. A lot of people were
beginning to wonder.

* The 20-year-old ‘left-
handed pitcher came down to
earth Monday night, losing a

«major league baseball game

for the first time when World
Series champion Philadelphia
Phillies beat him at Dodger
Stadium.”

Tf Valenzuela ‘was shaken
opt by his first, setback, a 40

"oy ew it ‘had t nd ‘he
said through an interpreter.
“I knew sooner or later I had
to lose.a game. Everything’s
the same. I’m not sad.”

A lot of other people were.
The paid crowd of 52,489
began the game cheering
every strike thrown by the
rookie sensation. The cheer-
ing stopped ‘when Mike
Schmidt, third Philadelphia
batter in ‘the first inning, hit

his 12th home run of the’

year.

‘When Valenzuela was re-
moved for.a pinch hitter in
the bottom of the seventh
with the Dodgers losing 4-0,
many of the fats booed Los
Angeles manager Tom Las-
orda for lifting their hero. .

It was a bad night all the
way around for Valenzuela.
Not only did he suffer his
first loss after 10 consecutive
major league victories, eight
of which came this season in
his firat eight starts, he failed
to get a hit in two at-bats,

. dropping his batting“average

to 833 from .360.
His earned-run. average

jumped to 0.91 from 0.50. The’

four earned runs scored by
the Philliés squalled the total
he had allowed in eight pre-
vious starts.

Despite the negatives: the

rookie pitched another fine
game, allowing‘ only three
hits and two walks while -
striking out six. _

In addition to Schmidt's
homer, the only other Phil-
adelphia hits came in ‘the
fourth inning. So did both of
the walks."

After Pete Rose and
Schmidt walked, Keith More-
land and Gary Matthews
came through’-with succes-
sive run-scoring singles. A
sacrifice fly by Garry .Mad-
dox.completed the. scoring..:,

‘He ,got himself in trouble -

by-walking me and Schmidt,”
said Rose. “Good teams take
advantage of walks.”

Rose, who has 3,602 career
hits to rank third: on big-
league baseball's all-time hit
list, was askéd what he
thought of Valenzuela.

“You can’t tell from one
look at him,” said the-Phil-
adelphia first baseman. “But
you're not gonna win every.
game in this league, I don't
eare who you are.”

Marty Bystrom, 3-2, and

_Ron Reed combined to blank
the Dodgers on six. hits.
‘Brystrom, 22, a rookie who
was 6-0 last season after. the

Phillies called him ‘up: from *

the minor leagues on Sept. 1,
pitched the first seven inn-
ings.

“Quote”

“All athletes start as par-
ticipants, but as they pro-
gress to.higher levels of ocm-
competitence,; the top per-
formers become competitors.
The turning point comes

‘ when they perceive what

they can become rather than
what they are.”
