2B Quick Looks Thursday April 16,1998 HOROSCOPES Today's Birthday (April 16). Travel plans may seem hopeless this year but save the money anyway. In April, pay a debt to an older woman. Once that is completed, you will get lucker. Aries: Today is an 8. Taurus: Today is a 6. Do not lose your temper with a gentle person this morning. As the day continues, you'll have more power. That is good, since there is work to be done. The money certainly will come in handy. You already have thought of several ways to spend it. Gemini: Today is an 8. Love could come your way today, although you may not recognize the person as a potential love interest. You may think of him or her as a friend. If you are married, that could be the situation between you and your spouse. Things may seem too hard to deal with this morning but do not worry. The confusion clears as the day continues. Your mate or partner makes some succinct and appropriate suggestions. It is hard for you to listen when some body else tells you what to do but give it a try. Cancer: Today is a 5. To succeed, try thinking from the point of view of your boss, teacher, parent or whatever other authority figure looms prominent in your life. If you do not, you could be completely blind sided by something this person asks you to do. Leo: Today is a 9. Fun, games, romance, travel, adventure, excitement—all of this and more is in store for you. How are you going to make the most of this marvelous advantage? The obvious first step is to get together with the one you love. This could be your sweetheart, mate or a child. Virgo: Today is a 5. Your home is still in an uproar but that is OK. It may seem like everything is costing too much. You may have also made a bigger mess than you had anticipated. Not to worry. By tomorrow, conditions will be a little more fun and a little less tense. Scorpio: Today is a 5. Sagittarius: Today is a 7. Libra: Today is an 8. Something you find difficult is ridiculously easy for a coworker. You have been trying to do it the hard way, and you have been resisting. Stop both you and will find everything getting easier. This will not make you less powerful. Master this skill and you will be awesome. Capricorn: Today is a 5. There are things going on today that need to stay confidential. That is not a problem for you, but it could be for a co-worker. Make sure this person doesn't know too much. Because you are not quite sure which person it is, you had better be careful with everything you say. Aquarius: Today is a 7. You are looking good and pushing hard. You are strong, and you have the backing you need. You and another person can seize victory with one last effort. Well, it is not even an effort, actually. It is more like fun. Congratulations and keep up the good work! It is better to put money into the bank than to take money out. Remember that if a friend tries to talk you into spending money. True, sometimes you have to spend money to make money, but right now you have to pay off debts to make money. Pisces: Today is a 5. You may experience confusion but do not worry. It's part of the learning process. As you get further into the program, everything will make more sense. You'll certainly be proud of yourself for having gone through this mess and emerging triumphant. You are going to have to put up with an older person's ridicule. He or she thinks it is funny. You, however, do not appreciate feeling like the brun of a joke. Can you lighten up about this? If not, nothing will make this assignment worthwhile. Give it a try. It might not be as hard as it looks.

KANSAS CITY, Mo.—A two-month retirement from baseball was all Mark Gubicza could stand. Longtime Royal returns to take job as instructor "It's tough being away from the game," said Gubicza, who still is listed as the Royals' all-time strikeout leader. "I found I couldn't get it out of my system. I love being part of it. I couldn't see myself doing something else right now." After pitching for the Royals from 1984 to 1996, Gubicza signed with the Anaheim Angels, then retired in February. But restless in his Northridge, Calif., home, he flew to Kansas City several weeks ago to speak with general manager Herk Robinson and other Royals' officials. "We actually started talking about some things during spring training," Gubicza said from California. "I just asked them if there was something I could do for the organization." The Royals are happy to welcome him back. "Every contract we negotiated, he always said, 'Now, don't forget I want to come back and work for the Royals.' " Robinson said. Gubica'a's only request was that he have plenty of time at home with wife Lisa and their three children. The Florida Bobcats, whose new arena in Fort Lauderdale will not be ready for use this season, will play the Nashville Kats on July 25.
