Will IU deliver too?

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) - What do you make with a ton of dough, 160 pounds of pepperoni and 230 pounds of cheese? If you’re delivering pizzas to Indiana University during today’s NCAA semifinal game, it’s only a head start on a busy day. “We have people on call in case they win Saturday,” Christopher Ramsey, a manager at Pizza Express, said Friday. The restaurant is within a short walk of five dorms. “If they win, this place will go crazy the whole town will.” Television sets are in big demand, especially the largescreen models. One downtown tavern boasts 10 sets and red beer for those watching the Hoosiers take on Nevada-Las Vegas. Steve Deckard said his Full-O-Pep TV & Appliance was looking for televisions to rent out to fans. “You don’t know where I can get a dozen big-screen TV’s, do you?” he asked jokingly. “We’re all out of big-screens, and we’re running awfully low on portables.” Deckard said his store had been renting 10 or 12 sets a day for most of the week. On campus, meanwhile, more than 300 fans saw the Hoosiers off in a brief rally at Assembly Hall Friday. The cheering, pomponwaving crowd surrounded the university bus that took Coach Bob Knight and the team to the airport.

Knight and the players made no remarks as they boarded, but just the chance to see them off was enough for Linda Ridge of Bloomington. “It’s great,” she said, crying and laughing at the same time. “I’m in tears, I’m just so excited. I hope they win and go for it all.” “It kind of gives you goose bumps. It gives you cold chills,” said a man who carried a toddler on his shoulders. “I went back in after the players came out and saw Bobby Knight come down. He walked right by me, and that was kind of exciting.” Some of those who came to see the team off talked hopefully of victory celebrations tonight in the entertainment district next to the campus. But university officials acted Friday to head off potential problems by draining Showalter Fountain, site of numerous impromptu victory baths in previous years. The university’s police department said it would station extra officers around the fountain and block Seventh Street to prevent celebrants from driving onto campus. Vandals overturned cars and broke windows in the downtown following lU’s 1981 championship victory, and local police said 20 to 30 extra officers would be on standby over the weekend to handle any disturbances.

Strawberry never one to back down

By DAVE ANDERSON c. 1987 N.Y. Times News Service NEW YORK Even before the thrill of last year’s World Series, the Mets’ motto across the outside of Shea Stadium was “Baseball Like It Oughta Be,” although the Red Sox wouldn’t agree. In other years, it was “The Magic Is Back,” long before the magic really returned. And now, it’s simply “1986 World Champs.” But for opening day on April 7 the Mets should update their Shea Stadium sign to read: “We’ve Put That Behind Us.” Darryl Strawberry is the latest Met to “put that behind” him his squabble over a $1,500 fine by Davey Johnson for having been three hours late for one workout and for having stalked out of another workout. Back when spring training began, Strawberry was asked about his squabble with Johnson when the manager removed him from the sixth game of the World strategic double switch.'That night in October the now 25-year-old slugger snapped that he didn’t want to talk to the manager ever again. But when he arrived at spring training, he smiled. “I want to put that behind me,” Strawberry said. During the off season Dwight Gooden was placed on probation for three years after having pleaded no contest to two felony charges pressed by the Tampa police. But when he arrived at spring training, the 22-year-old right-hander smiled. “I want to put that behind me,” Gooden said. Three weeks ago Ron Darling and Tim Teufel had their one-year probations lifted by a Houston judge after the two Mets pleaded no contest to misdemeanors stemming from a scuffle with off-duty policemen in a Houston nightspot. “Now, I’ll be able to put that behind me,” Darling and Teufel each said. But the Mets, individually and collectively, will never really put these incidents behind them. They are part of the franchise’s history now, part of each player’s history. Whenever any of these players is involved in a new incident, his past will be dredged up, fairly or unfairly. Strawberry’s past, in particular. He has dared to confront the manager twice. And when he’s introduced on opening day, he’s likely to be booed. If he wonders why, he has only to look in the mirror. Fans often disagree with a manager’s strategy. But fans and teammates will always side with a winning manager against a whining player. “Not only are you wrong,” Dan Bankhead once scolded Jackie Robinson in the Brooklyn Dodgers’ clubhouse, “but you are loud wrong.” In an era when most fans resent the big salaries in baseball, fans aren’t about to sympathize with a 25-year-old outfielder making $1 million a year who’s protesting a $1,500 fine for not showing up for work one day and then leaving work the next day. Especially when his work is swinging a bat and shagging fly balls in the warmth of the Florida sun. Imagine his attitude if he had to get up and go to a real job. And during the World Series the fans didn’t sympathize with Strawberry’s complaint about having been removed from the memorable sixth game that the Mets won. Instead of sharing his Mets teammates’ improbable victory with two out in the 10th inning of that sixth game, Strawberry sulked, vowing

Womens final set

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) Louisiana Tech and Tennessee, a pair of underdogs expected to be ushered quickly to the exit, will meet for the sixth annual NCAA Women’s Basketball I/inal Four championship Sunday. Tech, refusing to be shaken by a partisan crowd on Texas’ home court, sent the defending national champions packing Friday night with a 79-75 victory over the Lady Longhorns. Earlier, the Lady Volunteers stunned run-and-gun Long Beach State 74-64, holding the Lady 49ers 32 points below their season’s average. Louisiana Tech, now 30-2, won the 198? title but Tennessee has never won a national championship. Nora Lewis and Tori Harrison each scored 20 points and AllAmerican guard Teresa Weatherspoon added 19 for Louisiana Tech as the Lady Techsters stunned a record crowd of 15,615, largest in NCAA history for a women’s tournament game.

DARRYL STRAWBERRY Puts feud behind him

never to talk to Johnson again. His timing was atrocious. If the Mets had lost that game without his bat being available in the 10th inning, Strawberry would have had an understandable seeortd-guess that many of his teammates would have supported. But when the Mets won, he should have known enough to feel happy for the team, not sorry for himself. At age 25, Strawberry is no longer eligible to be excused for behavior more suitable to an age that matches the number on his uniform —lB. In a crisis, Strawberry reacts as if he were a teen-age tennis player stomping and pouting rather than a team player on baseball’s best team. “I know Darryl’s got personal problems,” Johnson said Sunday, alluding to his right fielder’s divorce proceedings, “but I can’t have them creating problems on the ball club. It’s that simple.” Strawberry understandably is sensitive to his personal problems. But he’s not the only ballplayer, or the only Met, ever to have personal problems. Twice now Strawberry has had no support from his teammates in his squabbles with the manager. In recent days Keith Hernandez and Gary Carter, the pillars in the Mets’ clubhouse, have told him that he was wrong in his selfish reaction to the manager’s authority. If a borderline player had done what Strawberry did last October and last weekend, he would soon be an ex-Met. But Strawberry’s talent, as towering as his 6-foot-6-inch physique, is such that he will be tolerated unless the conflict with the manager deepens drastically. But the fans won’t be so quick to tolerate Strawberry’s behavior. He’s easy to boo. He’s lean and languid, unlike Len Dykstra and Mookie Wilson, whose hurry-up hustle is so appealing. If the Mets don’t get off to another quick start in the National League East and Strawberry struggles, he’ll really hear it from the Shea Stadium fans. They began booing him seriously late last season, even though he would hit 27 homers and drive in 93 runs. Some of those fans have personal problems, too. But when they go to Shea Stadium, they are there to try to forget their personal problems. And they expect Darryl Strawberry to try to forget his.

The loss snapped Texas’ 25-game win streak. The Lady Longhorns finished the season 31-2. Louisiana Tech Leon Barmore said he wasn’t that surprised by the result. “I thought we could come here and beat Texas if we got balanced scoring and we did,” Barmore said. “Stacy Davis did a great job on Andrea Lloyd and that was a big key for us. “We match up pretty well with Tennessee. We’ve played them before and it’s always been a pretty physical game.” Texas Coach Jody Conradt said Tech deserved to win. “It was a tough game, a good game,” she said. “The credit goes to Louisiana Tech. They played great.” All-American Lloyd only scored seven points for Texas which was led by Clarissa Davis’ 24 points. Louisiana Tech again proved to be a jinx for Texas. The Lady Techsters also have knocked the Lady Longhorns out of two regionals.
