Coach turns teams around, WSU athletic director says
WICHITA — Ron Chismar of Arizona State was named head football coach at Wichita State partly because he helped turn around other troubled programs, the Shockers' athletic director said yesterday.
Chismar, 49, offensive coordinator at Arizona State, is Wichita State's 32nd football coach. He replaces Willie Jeffries, who resigned Jan. 27 to become head coach at Howard University in Washington, D.C.
"I hope we have great success," Chismar said at a news conference at Wichita State yesterday. "I realize I'm not operating in a dream world, and I don't think this thing (a turnaround) is going to happen overnight. I don't believe the administration believes that either. I certainly hope they don't."
they don't. Chismar was selected from a field of about 200 coaches, 10 of whom were considered seriously, said Lew Perkins, the university's athletic director.
"We were looking for a coach with experience," Perkins said. "We looked for somebody who has been in programs going through change before. We looked for somebody who would come in and give us some stability.
NBA suspends two players for fight
NEW YORK - Cleveland's Lonnie Shelton was suspended for two games and fined $2,500 and New Jersey's Buck Williams was suspended for one game and fined the same amount for fighting during a Tuesday night game between the teams, the National Basketball Association announced yesterday.
unhandled yesterday.
The suspensions of the two players, who were involved in another fight earlier this season, will take effect immediately. Shelton was fined $2,500 for the last fracas.
Scotty Stirling, NBA vice president for operations, said Shelton was suspended an additional game because he went after Williams after the two had been separated.
WBC may oppose Leonard's return
MEXICO CITY — The World Boxing Council said yesterday that it would oppose boxer Sugar Ray Leonard's return to the ring if there was the slightest doubt about his physical fitness.
Leonard, former undisputed welterweight champion, was forced to postpone his Feb. 25 bout against Kevin Howard because of treatment he received on his right eye to prevent the retina from becoming detached.
Leonard retired from boxing in November 1982 after undergoing surgery in May of that year for a detached retina on his left eye.
Leonard announced in December his planned return to the ring after 13 months of inactivity.
Leonard's doctor, Edward A. Ryan, said Leonard needed 10 to 15 days to recover from the recent treatment.

Los Angeles Open to feature golf's star performers
Proceeds to go to The Lawrence United Fund.
LOS ANGELES — The 58th Los Angeles Open returns tomorrow to the majestic Riviera Country Club nestled high above the Pacific Ocean with a field that includes defending champion Gil Morgan and standouts Tom Watson, Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, Johnny Miller and Ray Floyd.
The LA Open was shifted to Rancho Park last year to make room for the PGA Championship at Riviera in August.
Also shooting for the $720,001 first prize out of the $400,000 purse will be Spain's Seve Ballesteros, the 1983 Masters and Westchester champion, who will be making his 1984 debut in the United States and his first appearance since becoming an official member of the PGA Tour.
Morgan won the crown by two strokes last year, but no one has successfully
WATSON, WINNER of the LA Open in 1980 and 1982, enters this year's event as the No. 3 money winner on the tour, but only because of his $100,000 victory in January in the unusual Tuscon Match Play Tournament. Still considered the top player in the world by most fans, he has put out in his past three tournaments and said he'd tee it up not knowing what to expect.
Ballesteros has done little to disprove Crenshaw's remark.
"I untoumfortable out there right now," he said yesterday. "I have to think about all the mechanics of what happened, and it's tough to play this game like that."
Nicklaus will make one of his rare appearances at Riviera, a course that has treated him badly over the years. Trevino has never won on the 6,946-yard, par-72 layout, either, but has been in contention a few times,
BALLETEROS, THE flashy Spaniard known for his reckless play, will be competing under a rule change informally referred to by the players as the Ballesteros Rule. The PGA, realizing the drawing power of such a player, waived one of its rules to allow Ballesteros to play the U.S. circuit while maintaining his ties with European tournaments.
defended the title since Arnold Palmer won the tournament in 1966 and 1967.
along with Floyd. Miller won the tournament in 1981.
IN THE 1879 British Open, which he won, he chucked a drive so far off line that it landed in a parking lot. At the Masters in 1980, which he also won, his drive on the 17th tee landed on the seventh green. He took a free drop, hit a 7-iron over a 20-foot high scoreboard to see if he could not see, and sank the bird putie.
The rule formerly required PGA card-carriers to play five U.S. tournaments for every foreign tournament they competed in. The PGA did, however, have to adapt the two-time Masters champion play in a minimum of 15 U.S. events in 1984.
Ballesteros, who turns 27 on April 9, has won 34 international events and brought this remark from Bren Censhaw a year ago: "Seve's got shots others don't even know. He's the world's most exciting player."
But Ballesteros said he hasn't joined the U.S. tour to prove anything.
"I don't come here to show anything or challenge anyone," he said. "I think it is the best place, the only place, to play. It has the best players, best facilities, best money and best weather. "If everything was the same in Europe, I'd stay in Europe. But this is the best country in the world. I come to enjoy myself and learn more about the game."

Valentine's Day is now 364 days away.
What this world needs are BELATED VALENTINES
Valentine's Day is now 364 days away.
That day to say "I love you" comes and goes too soon.
Why not surprise someone with your own belated Valentine?
It might really say you care enough to give the very best.
The world never has too many Valentines.
So we add our Belated Valentine,
So we add our Belated Valentine,
Because God cared enough to give the very Best
