MU players confess to using stolen card
Six University of Missouri football players Tuesday admitted to using a stolen credit-card number to make more than $2,000 worth of long-distance calls, a university police officer said.
Patrick Overshown, Kevin Hagens, Jesse Holmes, Kenny King, Cordell McKinney and Roland Young have confessed to using the stolen number, as did Joel Gresham, a graduate student and former track team member.
The students made written confessions to university police, which turned over the confessions to the Boone County Prosecuting Attorney's office. No charges have been filed.
University Police Major Jack Watring said the case probably stems from a September incident in which the purse of a student from Rolla, Mo., was found unattended in a residence hall. Police believe a suspect copied the woman's credit-card number.
United Telephone Co., of Missouri traced the calls to the players through an investigation. The company said the individual bills ranged from $60 for McKinney to more than $827 for Overshow, a sophomore wide receiver from Houston.
Coach Woody Wendenofer was recruiting and unavailable for comment. There were no comments from the university's athletic department.
Jordan leads NBA all-stars
Chicago Bulls guard Michael Jordan, the NBA's leading score with an average of more than 37 points a game, leads the starting teams announced yesterday for the NBA All-Star game.
Jordan drew a record 1,141,733 votes in fan balloting, breaking the record set last year by Earvin "Magic" Johnson. The All-Star Game is scheduled for Feb. 8 in the Kingston in Seattle.
Jordan, an All-Star starter as a rookie in 1985,
led all Eastern Conference players in votes last year.
Other starters for the Eastern Conference are guard Julius Erving of Philadelphia, center Moses Malone of Washington and forward Joe Wilkins of Atlanta and Larry Bird of Boston.
The Western Conference starting lineup consists of Johnson of the Los Angeles Lakers and Alvin Robertson of San Antonio at guard, Akeem Olajuwon of Houston at center, and Ralph Sampson of Houston and James Worthy of the Lakers at forward.
Remaining squad members will be decided by a vote of all coaches in their respective conferences, with the results to be announced next week.
Lakers Coach Pat Riley is coaching the West, while K.C. Jones of Boston, Chuck Daly of Detroit and Mike Fratello of Atlanta are competing for the job to coach the East.
Racing proposal approved
A proposal to build a $20 million to $25 million horse and greyhound racetrack near Wichita won an endorsement from the Sedgwick County Commission yesterday.
It was believed to be the first time a city or county governing body had endorsed a track proposal since a pari-mutuel wagering constitutional amendment was adopted by veters in November, a spokesman for Richard J. Boushka said. Boushka is a Wichita businessman who is co-owner of Sunflower Racing Inc., the company that wants to build the facility.
County commissioners made it clear that their endorsement was not exclusive. They said that if other developers presented acceptable plans, those also would be endorsed.
The site that Sunflower Racing has selected is near the Kansas Coliseum on Interstate 135 just north of Wichita.
Plans call for the greyhound, quarter horse and thoroughbred track to be situated on piles acres. It would have a seating capacity of 40,000 people, said the track could generate about 700 jobs.
The Kansas Legislature must enact enabling legislation and the governor must appoint a racing commission before developers will be licensed to construct and operate tracks. Sunflower officials said that they believed endorsements such as the one voted by Sedgwick county commissioners would be an advantage when the racing commission began selecting track sites and developers.
Edberg and Lendl advance
Defending champion Stefan Edberg and top seed Ivan Lendl each recorded straight-set victories yesterday to advance to the semifinals of the Australian Open.
Edberg defeated Czechoslovakian Mileslav
Mecir in a rain-interrupted quarterfinal match
at Kooyong Stadium. The Swede who turned 21
had a chance to beat Meicir
6-1, 6-4, 6-4, on a greasy center court
Lendl had early trouble in his match with ninth-seeded Anders Jarryd before eliminating the Swede. 7 (6-7), 6-1, 6-3. Lendl next will play of the Pat Cash-Yannick Noah quarterfinal.
Edberg will meet overnight sensation Wally Masur in Friday's semifinals. Masur upset the tournament seedings Tuesday when he knocked Malcolm leaden champion and No. 2 seed Boris Becker.
