The Associated Press had learned Wednesday that the 110,000-seat Los Angeles Coli seum, scene of the Olympic track and field competition, also would be the site of the U S. Trials. And that was approved by the International Competition Committee of The Athletics Congress, the national govern ing body for the sport Eugene, site of the 1972,1976 and 1980 U S Olympic track and field Trials, New York, Dur ham, N.C. and Baton Rouge, La., also had expressed interest in the event, but TAC's Site Selection Committee endorsed Los Angeies earlier in the year. "The facility is supposed to come as close to the Olympic site as possible," said Jim Tup peny, head of the International Competition Committee and the director of track and field at the University of Pennsylvania "Obviously, nothing comes as close to the Olympics as Los Angeles." Dick Hollander, who worked closely with Tuppeny on the In ternational Competition Com mittee, said Eugene, considered the capital of track and field in the United States, did not for mally bid for the Trials. "Eugene, of course, realized that the Games are going to be in Los Angeles and what having the Trials there means to the athletes," he said. "The chance to run at the venue of the Games is a great advantage to the athletes," said middle-distance runner Craig Masback, "but Eugene has such a unique atmosphere. I'm sorry to leave that atmosphere” Los Angeles was the only city to formally file a petition for the track and field Trials “I’m definitely in favor of Los Angeles," said Larry Ellis, coach of the United States Olympic men s track and field team and the coach at Prince ton University. "With the Trials being at the same site as the Games, it will be an advantage for the athletes It will give them a first hand opportunity to see the facility," added Ellis, a former standout middle-distance run ner at New York University The Trials will be held June 16-24, 1984 in the Coliseum, which is to undergo a refurbishing at an estimated cost of $7 million. Among the improvements are supposed to be a new, nine-lane track, plus better jumping and throwing areas Ollan Cassell, TAC executive director, reportedly worked out the agreement for the Trials with the Coliseum. “Ollan made a deal with Los Angeles for the Trials,” a source close to the situation told The AP ‘Hawks breathe new life i i l_i_ j — i lie oedllitf Seahawks are a reborn football team and coach Mike McCor mack is getting the credit McCormack, an admitted failure as a National Football League head coach in Philadel phia and Baltimore, stresses he hasn't given the Seahawks a secret potion "I've always believed there's no magic formula," he says "If there was, hell, everybody would follow it " McCormack, fired as Bal timore's head coach after the Colts went 2-14 last season, guided the Seahawks to a 2-0 record after the 57-day NFL players' strike During the strike, the Seattle ownership fired its original head coach, Jack Patera, and named McCormack as the club's inter COPY TIME Printing & Copying Fast Service Low Prices Self-Service Copying 884 E 13th 343-7131 Open 7 Days 7:30 am - 9 pm Mon - Sat 1 pm - 5 pm Sunday mi wuciui. iviuv^ur rnduiv jumeu the Seahawks as director of football operations this season.
