Riddick Bowe plans rematch
Boxers to resolve bout on Dec.14
After his riot-marred disqualification victory against Andrew Golota on July 11 at Madison Square Garden, Bowe recalled yesterday, his mother told him, "Maybe you should retire now."
NEW YORK — Riddick Bowe isn't listening to his mother.
"Because, between you and me."
A lot of people thought Bowe would have lost — perhaps even been knocked out — if Golota hadn't been disqualified in the seventh round for repeated low blows.

he was beating your butt."
Athletic Commission because of the wild melee.
"We'll take no questions about the incident, and we're not making it an issue during the promotion," said Dino Duva, president of Main Events, Golota's promoter and promoter of the rematch.
"I was bamboozled," Bowe said at a news conference to formally announce a rematch for Dec. 14. "I had never seen him fight, and I didn't train properly.
Bowe was an out-of-shape 252 pounds for the July fight, and trainer Eddie Futch recently left the former undisputed champion because of Bowe's attitude and conditioning.
Rock Newman, Bowe's manager, praised Futch as being a great trainer and fine man, and said that Thel Torrence will train Bowe.
Several people were arrested after the riot. Spencer Promotions, Bowe's promoter, was fined $250,000 by the New York State
The fight was controversial. That should help boost revenues, especially per-per-view sales, for this fight.
"I've been training to fight, so what can I say?" said Golota, a native of Poland. Golota needed 13 stitches after being cut on the back of his head by a cellular phone thrown during a brawl in the ring between supporters of Bowe and Golota. "I started thinking about the rematch right after the fight."
It will be telecast by TVKO, the pay-per-view arm of HBO. Ticket prices will range from $25 to $1,000.

Today's Birthday (Oct. 18)
Make the changes you need at home this year, and you'll finally be satisfied. Finish shopping and choose in November. Mix old and new for best results in January.
Expect the unexpected in February. Consult an older expert on a legal matter in April. July's best for selling something to replenish the nest egg.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -
Today is a 7.
You may not be marketing all your skills effectively. Look for ways to bring in more money while cutting costs. An intellectual friend may have excellent ideas, but watch a quiet type, too.
You should be full of energy today. The hard part will be getting it focused in one direction.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) -
Today is a 7.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec.
21) - Today is a 6.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Today is a 5.
You may not be as effective as you'd like to be today. If you're stymied by rules and regulations, stay rational; you may be able to change them.

learn a secret or find a treasure.
Aries (March 21-April 19) -
Today is a 6.
An older person's wishes may prevail over what you'd rather be doing today. If you're a team player, go along. If you don't like the team you're with, consider a transfer.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) - Today is a 7.
You'll be in the mood to accomplish a lot today. Don't let a lazy co-worker slow you down or get in your way. A long-distance call is very productive.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) - Todav is a 6.
Save socializing for after work, if you want to keep your job. The pressure's on to make a deadline and you can't afford to goof around.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 7.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -
Today is an 8.
You may be so much in love that you're considering going into debt. If so, look carefully at all the possibilities before making your decision. This morning's great for working toward a goal together.

Alumnus honored
By Kerry Hillard
Kansan sports writer
The memory of former Kansas baseball and football player William Robert Allison is being preserved with a plaque dedication today. The Major League Baseball Players Alumni Association is presenting the plaque at 4 p.m. today at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium.
The University of Kansas will be the first recipient of a $10,000 donation from the Bob Allison Scholarship Fund. The donation will be announced during halftime of the homecoming football game Saturday. The presentations coincide with K-Club week, which is a club for former Kansas athletes.
Allison played for Kansas in the
early 1950s. He then became a professional baseball player for the Minnesota Twins. Allison died April 9, 1995.
Kansas baseball coach Bobby Randall said Allison was very deserving of the recognition.
"Even as great an athlete as he was, he was also a tremendous, caring person," Randall said.
Forest Hoglund and other of Allison's former teammates will be attending the homecoming game. Allison's sons also will be attending.
Randall, who coached Allison's son, Kyle, at Iowa State, planned the events. He chose homeplate at Hogland-Maupin Stadium for the dedication ceremony.
He said it was like Allison was coming home.
Good start to soccer
The Associated Press
FOXBORO, Mass. — Fans stand behind the goal, sing and insult the referee. Real soccer is truly being played in the United States.
In only its first year, Major League Soccer has carved a place in American sports with its own fans and its own culture. The sport's latest attempt to gain a foothold on the professional level has been more successful than even soccer's most ardent enthusiasts had anticipated.
"I'm amazed at how well we've done," said Kansas City Wiz coach Ron Newman, who came to the United States from England in 1967 and witnessed the failure of two earlier leagues, the NASL and MISL.
"I had visions of playing before crowds of 3,000 or 4,000 and hearing all the soccer-bashing again. The game suddenly got respect it didn't have, probably from the World Cup, and we hadn't tested that respect until now."
With regular-season crowds averaging 17,416 — well above the 10,000 projected — and television ratings on cable equal to or better than the NHL and college basketball, MLS even got the attention of some of its detractors.
By midseason, inquiries about expansion teams flooded the league's headquarters. So many offered came in, the league abandoned its pledge not to expand for five years and announced it will add two clubs by 1998.
"By all measures, we have had a very good start," league commissioner Doug Logan said. "Having said that, we have no plans to take a vacation. Rather than signifying any degree of closure, we're already planning for next year, which is going to be the most critical year."
There is still one act to be staged: Sunday's MLS Cup '96, the championship game featuring Washington D.C. United and the Los Angeles Galaxy.
