Potter says Russians do cheat
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Former bronze medalist Cynthia Potter, competing for a spot on an Olympic team that won’t go to Moscow, says diving in the Soviet Union is no fun anyway. “And yes, they do cheat,” the former Indiana University diver from Dallas said Wednesday. “I’ve been to Moscow before and I’ve never really enjoyed it. Maybe we’re spoiled Americans. but the pools, the conditions and the whole set-up there has never been a real comfort-

able situation,” she said in a poolside interview. Fifty-three of the world’s fin est divers will compete for spots on the Olympic team at the Texas Swim Center. The competition begins Friday night with preliminaries in the women’s three-meter springboard. Potter took third place in that event at the 1972 Olympics at Munich. She also competed in 1976. She has made several trips to Moscow during her long career. The judging there, she said, always was suspect.

North Carolina State University's world class runner Julie Shea concentrates during her 10-mile daily workout. The workouts paid a dividend, as she was named the outstanding athlete of the year in the ACC, becoming the first woman ever to receive the honor. (AP wirephoto) Suns invite Macy back PHOENIX (AP) The Phoenix Suns, concluding a threeday rookie-free agent camp, have released 10 players and invited former Indiana Mr. Basketball Kyle Macy and seven others back for a further look in August. Macy, an All-American at the University of Kentucky after transferring from Purdue, was drafted by the Suns in 1979. He was Indiana’s Mr. Basketball from Peru High School in 1975. Also retained by the Suns were Kimberley Belton of Stanford, John Campbell of Clemson, Colby Leavitt of Utah, John MeCullugh of Oklahoma, Mike Niles of Cal State-Fullerton, Leroy Stampiey of Chicago Loyola and Doug True of California.
“I could do great there and not win. It’s not ideal for taking a team over there and competing,” she said. “It’s incredible, the things I’ve seen,” she said, adding that maybe “we are spoiled Americans.” Potter conceded that Russian divers probably feel they get short-changed in U S. meets. The 5-foot-l, 98-pounder from Dallas is 29 and winding up a diving career that included 27 AAU national titles the most by any diver. She now works for a trampoline company.
Several divers here said the U S. team will be the strongest in the world, with a shot at winning all four Olympic gold medals, if not for the boycott. Potter and Gold Medalist Phil Boggs both said they were upset at the way the boycott was ordered from Washington, with no input from the athletes. “We felt we had our dignity taken away. We weren’t even asked,” she said. Boggs, 30, and Potter are retiring after the summer competitions.
Opportunity to play Borg is enough for Glickstein
WIMBLEDON, England (AP) Just over a year ago, Shlomo Glickstein was a sergeant in the Israeli army. Thursday, he faced Bjorn Borg, the world’s No.l tennis star, at Wimbledon. “It’s a great opportunity for me,” said Glickstein after he had upset Raul Ramirez of Mexico in the first round. “I am sure I will learn a lot from the match and gain a lot of experience, and I hope so do my best ” But when he was asked about his chances of winning, Glickstein just rhapsodized about Borg, who is bidding to win Wimbledon for the fifth straight year. “Borg is just a great player,” said this virtually unknown Israeli, who is one of the few men
Wilkins tired discus champion, but Oerter looking into future
EUGENE. Ore. (AP) - Mac Wilkins, America’s discus champion, may be retiring at 29 and 43-year-old Al Oerter incredibly has his sights set on 1984 At the U S. Olympic Track and Field Trials Wednesday night, Wilkins was the best at 225 feet, 4 inches and Oerter was the fourth best at 215-1. But afterward, it was Oerter who talked optimistically about the Los Angeles Olympics and Wilkins who brought up the subject of retirement. “I won’t be around next year, that’s for sure,” Wilkins said. “I’m not sure about 1984. I just don’t know. But this could be my last year. “I’m physically and mentally tired. Look, I’ve been com-

Psychologically none of the top players can beat him.” John McEnroe, seeded to meet Borg in the final for a prize of $46,600, was paired against Terry Rocavert of Australia. Jimmy Connors, seeded third, had a more difficult looking assignment against Sherwood Stewart, ranked N 0.36 in the United States but with a lot of Wimbledon experience behind him. Vitas Gerulaitis, seeded fourth, faced Sashi Menon of India. Roscoe Tanner, last year’s defeated finalist, was aiming

I have a family and I’d like to do something else with my life.” Wilkins, 1976 Olympic gold medalist and former world record holder, and Oerter, a four-time Olympic champion, won’t be going to the Moscow Olympics, of course. The United States is boycotting the Moscow Games, that begin July 19, because of the Soviet invasion and takeover of Afghanistan. “I have no doubts about Los Angeles right now,” smiled Oerter. “The only thing that can stop me now is illness.” On a cold and cloudy night at University of Oregon’s Hayward Field, veteran John Powell, on his 33rd birthday, fin-

Neither has hit a ball yet. Glickstein was the star of the third day’s play, defeating Ramirez 4-6, 6-2, 3-6, 7-5, 8-6. He saved two match points at 5-3 in the fourth set. The first seed fell Wednesday. Hank Pfister, a 6-foot-4 power player, edged 6-7 Vic Amaya, the N 0.14 seed, 3-6, 6-4, 6-0, 3-6, 6-3.
