Argonauts struggling in 1984

By The Canadian Press

Toronto Argonauts, unlike rare wine, haven't improved with age.

In fact, the Canadian Football League champions of 1983 should be in a vintage year all-round. Instead, they find themselves struggling (1-2) in the 1984 schedule.

Edmonton Eskimos, on the other hand, are the early surprises with Matt Dunigan, a second-year pro who rode the bench in 1983 between Schenley Award-winning Warren Moon, directing the Esks (2-1) early-season success.

Combining the two elements, one might get the im pression Edmonton goes into today’s interlocking matchup at Exhibition Stadium with a slight edge.

Not so.

Dunigan’s status isn’t solvent at quarterback. He got cracked badly making a stop late in Edmonton's 40-13 rout of Calgary Stampeders last weekend.

Then there's the return of Condredge Holloway as the Toronto pivot. The former league MVP has

Then there's the return of Condredge Holloway as the Toronto pivot. The former league MVP was hampered by an injured shoulder through training camp and didn’t get to start until last weekend. It wasn't his fault his 1984 debut was against B.C. Lions, who have been awesome to date.

UNDER PRESSURE

It’s to Holloway's credit he survived the West Coast Juggernaut. He was mauled most of the afternoon by the likes of Nike Hebler, James Parker, Rick Klassen and Mack Moore and still came out smiling, but admittedly aching, from the experience.

It's not likely Edmonton will get the same opportunity to toy with Holloway today (CTV National at 5 p.m. EDT) as did B.C.’s front four, although rookié linebacker Stewart Hill — he's filling the slot vacated this year by Parker — has impressed the opposition with his play.

B.C. and Winnipeg Blue Bombers are the other scheduled game today at Winnipeg Stadium, also to be earried nationally on TV (CBC at 2 p.m. PDT).

The Lions have won everything this year four exhibition games and two regular-season fixtures — and it seems likely Hebler, Parker and company will commit mayhem in the Winnipeg backfield while quarterback Roy Dewalt does a tattoo in the Bombers secondary.

The Bombers, like the Argos, have had miserable times despite their 1-1 start. Quarterbacks*Tom Cements and John Hufnagel are struggling while Willard Reaves, a rookie running sensation in 1983, hasn't found the form in ‘84

‘CATS STUMBLE

The CFL began weekend play Friday night when Calgary stopped Hamilton Tiger-Cats 23-18. On Saturday, the East Division-leading Ottawa Rough Riders visited Montreal Concordes.

One of the problems in the Toronto attack this season is the lack of a deep threat. Slotback Paul Pearson has been Toronto's most productive receiver to date with 20, tied with Hamilton's Rufus Crawford for the Eastern lead and just one short of the league leader, Craig Ellis of Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Pearson can be counted on to rua short routes. But the Argos are in dire need of deep routes that Terry Greer and Emanuel Tolbert ran so much successfully in Toronto's drive for the Grey Cup in 1983.

Greer and Tolbert are both hobbled by injuries. Greer missed one game with a sore ankle, but he was far below par when he returned against the Lions. Tolbert hasn't played a regular-season game this year after stubbing his big toe in a

pre-season game.

Greer, last year's EasternSchenley nominee, still won't be 100 per cent fit for the Edmonton game but he'll dress and probably get a lot of work. He wasn't happy, however, with game preparations through the week imposed by head coach

Olympic flame arrives in L.A.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Olympic flame trium: phantly entered Los Angeles on Saturday and was passed among such celebrity torch runners as 0.J. Simpson, Shirley Fonda, Richard Zan uek and political activist Tom Hayden.

Hundreds of cyclists fol lowed the torch up Wilshire Boulevard, and thousands of spectators jumped up -and down and cheered, waving balloons and U.S. flags, as Hayden, a Democratic as semblyman from Santa Mon iea, passed the flame to the widow of actor Henry Fonda Hayden is married to her stepdaughter, actress Jane Fonda, who was out of town Saturday

Hayden, 43, ran two kil ometres instead of the usual one, because his son, Troy, 11, who was to have carried the torch Saturday, came down with chicken pox.

crowds.

The torch run began at Pepperdine University in Malibu shortly after dawn then moved south along the scenic Pacifie Coast Highway where bikini-clad women and youths in Vuarnet sunglasses stopped to watch from the beaches.

THRILLS PRODUCER

“It's a wonderful thrill,” said film producer Richard Zanuck, 49, who carried the torch for a kilometre along the coast. Zanuck produced such hits as The Sting and Jaws.

After the torch entered Santa Monica, Simpson, the former pro football great, hoisted the torch with a mus cular arm and raced up the steep California incline to Palisades Park.

After being greeted by Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley, who shed his customary bus- iness suit for an Olympic T-shirt, Santa Monica Mayor Ken Edwards and by Hay. den, Simpson passed the toreh to Michael Bailey, a seven-year-old cerebral palsy vietim.

Bassett sure to win title

By GRAHAM COX

OTTAWA (CP) — What could be one of the strongest men’s fields in recent history takes to the courts today in the week-long national tennis championships.

While the women’s singles is generally conceded, for the third straight year, to Car. ling Bassett of Toronto, the men's field could be a dog fight right down to the final July 29 at Rideau Tennis and Squash Club.

Bassett, still in the prodigy class at 16, is ranked higher than any other Canadian woman in history in inter. national tennis — 17th in the world and was ‘the tirst Canadian woman ever to be seeded at Wimbledon. She reached the third round of Wimbledon this year.

And, despite a sore shoul der suffered in a training incident, she is almost a sure bet to prevail against second seed Jill Hetherington of Pe- terborough, Ont., third seed Marianne Groat of St. Cath. arines, Ont., who Bassett de- feated 6-3, 6-2 in last year's final, or fourth-rated Helene Pelletier of St. Jerome, Que.

The other top seeds — five through eight in the 32-woman event sponsored by Molson Ontario Breweries Ltd. are Angela Walker of Sarnia, Ont., Karen Dewis of London, Ont., Sylvie Tetre ault of Ste-Jean, Que., and Wendy Pattenden of Van couver

Their final is scheduled July 28 and will be shown on national television

NO SHOEIN

Eventhough Glenn Michi bata of Toronto, Canada’s top internationally rated men's player at 75th, is seeded first in the 64-man field, he has no shoe-in to the finals.

Last year he was knocked out early in the competition and Derek Segal, a South African native now living in Toronto, won the champion- ship 6-1, 6-2 over Dale Power of Ottawa

While Power settles for a sixth seeding, the best Segal can do is third behind Martin Wostenholme of Oakville, Ont., who has had an out- standing season on the Alean satellite circuit.

With two ‘wins on the four-stop tour, Wostenholme this week has playing in the Acan masters event at Chi- coutimi, Que., where his strongest opponent likely would be either Brett Green- wood of Australia or Hatem MecDadi of Toronto, seeded fourth in the nationals ahead of Stephane Bonneau of Laval-des Rapides, Que.

Winner of the men's sin- gies takes home $3,500 of the record $30,000 in prize ‘money vailable with the women’s champ earning $3,000. The men’s doubles ‘champions split $1,200 and the women’s doubles $10,000.

Aussie leads Open

ST. ANDREWS, SCOT. LAND (AP) — Australian Ian Baker-Finch picked up another four birdies on the front nine Saturday and reached the turn with a 13- under-par total of 167 in the third round of the British Open golf championships.

Baker-Finch, 23, trying to become the first Australian to win the title since Peter Thompson in 1965, was 10- under-par overnight and led the field by three strokes.

Carrying on where he left off Friday, he holed a 30-foot putt for a birdie on the first hole today, repeated the feat on the par-four fourth and then birdied the fifth in another sensati start.

His first jolt af pres- sure in the tournament came when he drove into a bunker on the ninth hole. But he responded with a chip out then played his third shot to within 10 feet of the pin. He holed the putt to hold par.

‘The only man to stay with him was defending champion Tom Watson who shot up the leader board with five birdies in the first nine holes and was

nine-under par at 171

The veteran American played a series of remarkable shots, including two chips at the sixth and seventh holes, both of which landed inches from the pin.

HAS LUCK

But he also had his share of luck, especially on the first hole. His second shot landed just short of a narrow stream, bounced over the water and ended up 10 feet from the pin. He holed the putt,

The three players who were tied for second place behind Baker-Finch after Fri. day's play had mixed for tunes when they came out for the third round. .

Severiins Ballesteros ‘of Spain picked up another two strokes and was nine-under after 45 holes — four off the lead — while American Lee Trevino played steady golf and edged up from seven to eight under after his front nine.

But Briton Nick Faldo had a series of putting disasters and dropped four strokes to reach the turn in 40 —

three-under for the tourna ment.

Fred Couples and Lanny Wadkins of the United States both gained two shots to move to seven-under-par be hind Trevino, while South African Hugh Baiocchi was five-under after 45 holes.

Baker-Finch admitted fol lowing his round Friday that he came to Britain hoping for a finish among the top 20. But the virtual unknown fired a 66 for a 36-hole total of 134, matching the St. Andrews standard set in 1960 by Rob- erto de Vicenzo of Argentina.

Comaneci to be special guest

LOS ANGELES (AP( Nadia Comaneci, who cap- tured the hearts of fans around the world with her gymnastic feats in the 1976 Montreal -Olympic ~ Games, will be a special guest at the Summer Games in Los An geles, officials said

Village and assist the Roman

ian gymnastie team in prep-

aration for the competition, said.
