Vaulters mix words
INGLEWOOD, Calif. — After a week of trading insults, Billy Olson and Soviet rival Serguei Bubka will do their talking in the pole vaulting competition at today's Los Angeles Times Indoor Games.
holder at 19 feet $8\frac{1}{4}$ inches, has topped the indoor mat twice this season — only to have Olson beat both efforts. Sunday, he said the Dallas vaulter left much to be desired as an athlete.
He followed that remark Tuesday by noting that Olson has never competed in the World Championships or the Olympics.
MADRID — Renalo Nehemiah and Willie Gault, world-class hurdlers who gave up Olympic dreams to play professional football, should be allowed to compete in the Olympics, the head of track's international governing board said yesterday.
Plavers case argued
"If the big-money making tennis stars are allowed to play in the Olympics, there is no reason why Nehemiah and Gault should be banned," said Primo Nebiole, the Italian President of the International Amateur Athletics Federation.
Nebolio's comments come after the recent endorsement by the International Olympic Committee and President Juan Antonio Samaranch of a move to allow professionals to compete in the Games, subject to the approval by the governing body in their sport. Several sports, including tennis, already have approved the participation of professionals in the Olympics.
Sizzlers consider moving to Topeka
United Press International
Topeka is building the Kansas Expo Centre, which will include a 10,000-seat arena. The complex is scheduled for completion in March 1987. If the Sizzlers moved to Topeka in the meantime, they possibly could play their home games at Washburn University.
Topeka officials contacted the CBA a year ago and again this season about an expansion franchise. They made their presentation this year to Bernie Glannon, the head of the CBA expansion committee and owner of the Sizzlers.
"I am extremely impressed with Mayor (Douglas) Wright," Glannon said. "He's aggressive and has brought together the business community to hear the CBA story. He's come to games here with business
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Sizzlers of the Continental Basketball Association are considering a franchise move next season to Toneka.
So impressed was Glannon that for the last three weeks he has discussed with Wright and Topeka officials the possibility of moving his own franchise 70 miles west to the Kansas state capital for the 1986-87 season.
and political people. I have toured the new arena site and seen the plans. Topeka is a place the CBA would like to be."
"I feel very good that Topeka will have a CBA team, maybe as early as next year but certainly within two years when the Expo Centre is completed," Mayor Wright said. "I think our community is the ideal size for the CBA, and the Expo Centre will be an added attraction to the Sizzlers or any other team."
The Sizzlers have been a disappointment both on the court and at the gate in their first season. They are holding down last place in the seven-team Western Division with a 15-19 record and are averaging 2,820 paid admissions through their first 19 home dates.
"If the CBA put an expansion franchise in Topeka," Glannon said, "I believe they'd wait until the following year and then go into the new arena. But if the Kansas City Sizzlers were to move there, I believe it could be a possibility next season if (home dates at) Washburn were available."
Club officials had projected an average attendance of 3,500 in the team's debut season at the 8,700-seat Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City, Mo. The Sizlers have drawn crowds of more than 3,000 for only six home dates, including a season-high 7,012 in their opening game.
The Sizzlers drew crowds of 4,117 and 3,415 when they used the San Diego Chicken as a promotion and another crowd of 3,843 when the club gave away basketballs. Kansas City has had crowds of under 2,000 on five occasions.
"My first choice is to operate in Kansas City," Glannon said. "I started the franchise here, and I'd like to see it successful here. But you have to be realistic. We've got another 30 days in our season, and we
hope things turn around. But we have had no indication that things might turn around dramatically.
Judge hears a motion on Kapaun sanctions
"The city has treated us fairly, and we have an attractive lease. Mayor (Richard) Berkley has been very cooperative, and the lines of communication remain open and excellent. But it's no secret we're very disappointed with the attendance. We've had NBA-type talent, and we just haven't drawn."
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Judge Fred Jackson of in Shawnee County District Court yesterday considered a motion by the Kansas High School Activities Assocation asking him to dissolve a temporary restraining order that suspended sanctions against Wichita's Kapaun-Mt. Carmel High School.
The most successful teams in the CBA are Casper, Wyo., La Crosse, Wis., and Albany, N.Y., while teams in the larger cities such as Baltimore, Cincinnati, Detroit and Kansas City have struggled. The Toronto franchise moved to Pensacola, Fla., at midseason.
Jackson said he would make a ruling by 2:30 p.m. today whether to set aside his order or keep it in effect so Kapaun's wrestling team could compete in a regional tournament beginning tonight in El Dorado.
"The CBA trend seems to be the move from larger cities to cities in the 100,000-to-150,000 range," Wright said. "The CBA has a good style of basketball, and I'm convinced Topeka is ready for a professional sports franchise. I hope we can put it together."
He gave Randell J. Forbes, the Topeka attorney who represents the KHSAAA, until noon today to cite cases that indicate that participation in school extracurricular activities is not a right that would be lost to the students if the judge's order was lifted.
Robert J. O'Connor of Wichita, the lawyer for the nearly 200 students and their parents who fitted Tuesday seeking to overturn the sanctions imposed against Kapau by the activities association's executive board, argued that the school's nearly 550 students would be harmed if they were not allowed to compete in the wrestling and basketball playoffs.
Those sanctions included prohibiting Kapaun athletic, music and debate teams from competing
Forbes and O'Connor argued the motion in a case involving illegal payment of tuition for three student athletes at Kapaum over the past three years.
He said being allowed to compete was a property right.
"If the sanctions are imposed," O'Connor argued, "then they are irreparably harmed. These kids can't get back their chance to compete."
Rita Noll, an assistant attorney general, appeared at yesterday's hearing on the KSHSAA motion. She said Attorney General Robert Stephan thought the executive board violated the Open Meetings Act. She said his investigation was expected to be completed Monday.
O'Connor argued that the activities association issued an overly broad sanction against Kapau when it prohibited all its students — not just the three involved in the case — from participating in post-season competition.
Forbes said the three athletes and the school admitted the violations, and the sanctions imposed were no different from the National Collegiate Athletic Association's forbidding teams from competing in its championship tournaments after being found guilty of violations.

He said if the KHSHAA was found to be correct in the sanctions it imposed, it could always impose new ones on Kapau.
The students and parents who challenged the sanctions said in their petition that the executive board's ruling should be voided. They said the board violated the state Open Meetings Act by going into executive session three times during a six-hour hearing Feb. 12 without taking a vote or stating why it was closing the meeting.

Coaches Terry Holland of Virginia and Jim Valvano of North Carolina State both hope the NCAA selection committee will keep their schedules in mind when it picks the 64 teams for the playoffs.
ACC may dominate NCAA tournament
Valvano said, "Our problem is the level of play in our schedule right now is very high. We have North Carolina, Georgia Tech and Oklahoma left. I think anybody would have a difficult time coming away from that schedule with a win"
The regular-season ACC race is expected to go down to the final day, which is March 2, when Duke plays North Carolina. At the moment, the pace-setting Tar Heels have a 9-1 league record.
Duke, whose only two losses this season came in back-to-back visits to North Carolina and Georgia Tech, is 10-2.
But the ACC's automatic berth in the NCAA East Regional goes not to the regular-season champ but to the winner of the ACC tournament March 7-9 in Greensboro, N.C.
United Press International
ATLANTA — An all-Atlantic Coast Conference Final Four for the NCAA basketball championship isn't as unrealistic as it may sound.
If the National Collegate Athletic Association spreads its teams around as expected, the ACC, which currently has three of the top-five slots in the national rankings and three other teams that probably would be in the top 20 if they were playing in some other league, should dominate this year's national playoffs.
The ACC has long been reknown as a bastion of college basketball. But this season, the league has been virtually in a class by itself with North Carolina (25-1) No. 1, Duke (26-2) No. 2 and Georgia Tech (20-4) No. 5 in this week's rankings.
The league's only other nationally ranked team, at No. 17, is North Carolina State (17-9). But unranked Virginia (17-7) has won against both North Carolina, and North Carolina State and State has non-conference victories over No. 7 Kentucky and No. 11 Nevada-Las Vegas.
