81 Thursday, January 18, 1996 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Boston may get ex-New York Met The Associated Press BOSTON — The Boston Red Sox, already loaded with potential designated hitters and right fielders, are considering signing free agent Darryl Strawberry, who has interest in the team, according to published reports. "We're going to explore the possibility and see if there is a fit there for our team," Red Sox general manager Dan Duquette was quoted as saying in today's Boston Globe. "He has power. We know he can hit." Boston has Jose Canseco, Reggie Jefferson and Troy Cleray as possible designated hitters. Last season, Canseco was almost exclusively a DH and O'Leary primarily played right field. The Red Sox plan to try Canseco in right field this year. Darryl Strawberry Duquette told the Globe, "You do everything that is possible to try to improve this ball club." The matter was complicated by the death Saturday of Bill Goodstein. Strawberry's agent. Strawberry, who flew to New York for the funeral Tuesday, said he was devastated by Goodstein's sudden death. He also suggested to The Record of Hackensack, N.J., that negotiations were far enough along that he would not try to find another agent right away. "I don't know who I can trust anymore, so I might as well do this deal myself with the Red Sox." The Red Sox had told Goodstein twice that they had no room for Strawberry on the roster. But Duquette apparently changed his opinion. Horoscopes Today's Birthday (Jan. 18). You're a powerhouse this year. Expect complications, though. Just keep after your goal and you'll get it, eventually. Make plans now, anticipating changes. Buy a tool to help in February. Learn how to use it by taking a class in March. You may find romance there, too. May's good for a marriage, but you may not get far on your honeymoon until September. You may find the clue that solves a personal mystery in December. Arles (March 21-April 19). Make a list of your attributes and all the work you currently handle flawlessly. You may get a chance to defend you position soon. If there's an area that needs improvement, put in the correction now. The boss has problems bigger than yours, so be nice. Taurus (April 20-May 20) It's a good day for a meeting. Work out a strategy to get through hard times. Even if you've been spared so far, it won't hurt to practice. You have lots of good ideas. Share them with your co-workers. Tonight, go through the same drill with your family. Gemini (May 21-June 21). Don't be flipppart if your boss asks you to do something slightly different. Instead, stay cheerful and enthusiastic. You're one of the people the others look to for encouragement. You'll be luckiest in love for the next few weeks if you listen, instead of talking. Cancer (June 22-July 22). There are a lot of different ways to take care of your family. If you want to learn more, ask an older person to teach you. There may be more cold weather ahead. If you're looking for love, look again. You may have passed right by a gentle, caring soulmate. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). There could be a shake-up concerning you business today. So just to be on the safe side, make yourself invaluable. Even better, think of ways to market your other skills. Don't depend on one source of revenue. If you diversify, you'll become stronger. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).) The most obvious place to look for an error today is in the numbers. If you can find the problem now, you may save yourself a lot of trouble, and money, later. A change in plans this evening could work out well. You and your date may come up with a better idea. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Put your talents to work and make what you need! This could even develop into a sideline, to bring in more money. Somebody at work has a crush on you. That one may not be your type, but be nice anyway. You can never tell what might develop. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What you don't know, you can learn. You could make your own fortune, your own way, through your own creativity. You might not succeed the first time, but that's OK. You learn more with every try. Ask a wealthier friend to help you work out the details. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Don't run out and buy a bunch of lottery tickets today. More likely, it's your experience that will pay off. You may also benefit from something you do as a hobby at home. That's where you should be tonight. Your family needs more attention. Capricorn (Dec.22-Jan. 19). You can trust your instincts today, and your experience. A communication might get garbled, though. Check all facts carefully before acting on them. You may benefit from an unexpected source. Don't worry about love. A gentle friend will stand by you. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). If you're so smart, why ain't you rich? If you listen today, you should be able to pick up a few business tips. Don't make the same mistake an older person made. Learn through somebody else's experience. Buy your mate a special treat tonight. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Although you may be shy, you're very attractive today. Consider an offer made in the afternoon. Things may not turn out as expected, but the outcome should be positive. Don't take an older person too seriously. Watch for a tell-tale twinkle in the eye.

He's posed naked in Playboy and has promised and dishing off a career-high 10 assists. It was his first triple-double in 700 NBA games and it helped the Bulls improve to 32-3 overall and 19-0 at home. 864-9500 "Right now, he's probably the fans' favorite," Jordan said. "They respect his work ethic. He does his job and deserves some reward." Our readers are hereby informed that all jobs and housing advertised in this newspaper are available on an equal opportunity basis. Chicago fans fell in love with him almost immediately. An enemy during his days with the Detroit Pistons, the Worm often draws more cheers than Jordan. Rodman had one of his best games ever in Tuesday's 116-104 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, pulling down 21 rebounds, scoring 10 points All real estate advertising in this newspaper is subject to the Fair Federal Law Act of 1985 which makes it illegal to advertise any "qualification or discrimination on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status" and makes it illegal to make any such experience or discrimination. It hasn't happened. All Rodman has done is help turn an outstanding team into, perhaps, a team for the ages. "He prides himself on rebounding, but he's doing other things for us," Jordan said of the four-time league rebounding leader. "He showed he could play an all-around game. People have to respect him." Sure, there's Michael Jordan to score just about whenever he wants. And there's Scottie Pippen to do everything else. But would the Bulls be a threat to achieve an NBA-record 70 victories without Rodman? Would a fourth league title in the 1990s be possible without the Worm? Rodman helps Chicago bull through opponents Even Jordan, Pippen, Coach Phil Jackson and other Bulls wondered if "Now," said Philadelphia center Sharone Wright, "they have Superman, Batman and Rodman." CHICAGO — A distraction, a disruption, a crash. Skeptics said Dennis Rodman would be all those things and more. He'd turn the Chicago Bulls into a freak show. The Associated Press to name names in an outrageous autobiography to come out this year. But unlike his time with the Spurs, he's been a dedicated practice player, hasn't shown up late for workouts and hasn't defiantly ignored team huddles during games. "This is the happiest I've seen him," said Philadelphia coach John Lucas, who was San Antonio's coach during Rodman's first season there. "I'd attribute it to Dennis being in his last year, looking for a huge contract." Maybe the Bulls' big risk wasn't much of a risk at all. If Rodman wants megabucks next season, when he'll be 35, he needs to show that he can both play and conform. So far, he's been the ideal complement to Jordan, who is gunning for an unprecedented eighth NBA scoring title, and Pippen, probably basketball's best all-around player. 832-0818 Classified Policy The Kansan will not knowingly accept any advertisement for housing or employment that discriminates against any person or group of persons based on race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, rationality or disability.
