Trail Blazers trample Bulls By Landon Hall The Associated Press PORTLAND, Ore. — Arvydas Sabonis scored 16 of his season high 23 points in the fourth quarter as the Portland Trail Blazers ex tended the Chicago Bulls’ losing streak to 12 with a 92-81 victory Tuesday night. Ron Mercer scored 22 despite the flu, and Elton Brand added 18 points and 12 rebounds for the Bulls, who started a five-game trip by falling to 2-21 on the road. Steve Smith added 18 points to lead a surge by the Portland re serves in the final period. After an alley-oop dunk by Rasheed Wal lace to start the fourth quarter and a jumper by Bonzi Wells, the bench players scored the next 23 points. Sabonis had missed three straight games due to back spasms, and he picked up two fouls in his first four minutes. But with the Blazers struggling on offense, his teammates found him again and again underneath. Portland came back from eight points down in the third quarter to take a 59-57 lead entering the fourth. A jumper by Brand cut it to 67-66 with 8:03 left, but Sabonis made a re verse layup and got fouled. A reverse layup by Brad Miller pulled Chicago within 78-74 with 5:07 left, but Sabonis responded with a jumper after a steal by Smith. Smith then drove for a layup and Sabonis scored from inside to make it a 10-point lead with 3:45 left. Wallace, named a reserve to the West All-Star team earlier in the day, was held to 14 points, and coach Mike Dunleavy pulled him with 9:41 to play after he lost a ball out of bounds. The Blazers got Sabonis back just in time. Earlier Tuesday, the team announced that Scottie Pippen had undergone surgery to remove a bone chip from his sore right elbow and would be out indefinitely. Exactly five years earlier, on Jan. 30, 1996, Pippen had 28 points to lead the Bulls past Houston to seal a perfect 14-0 record in January. This season’s Chicago team went 1-13 for the month. Wallace opened the third quarter with a dunk, but the Blazers went the next 6:15 without a basket, re calling their brutal 58-point effort at Cleveland last week. A reverse layup by Brand, fol lowed by his fallaway jump shot and Mercer’s fastbreak jumper, put the Bulls ahead 57-49, bringing boos from the Rose Garden crowd. Portland then closed the period with a 10-0 run, capped by Smith’s layup off a rebound by Wells. Portland’s sloppy play made the game competitive from the start. The Blazers committed seven turnovers in the first 61/2 minutes of the next period, but Chicago could only outscore them 6-3. A 3-pointer by Hoiberg made it 35-34, but the Blaz ers went on a 10-2 run, all on long jumpers and free throws. Golf brief UO men’s golf finishes ahead of 11 teams Paced by junior Aaron Byers’ tied-for-fifth-place individual fin ish, the Oregon men’s golf team completed the Ping-Arizona Inter collegiate tournament Tuesday in ninth place. The Ducks’ three-round score of 22-over-par 874 placed them one stroke behind the host No. 10 Ari zona Wildcats and one stroke ahead of in-state rival Oregon State. No. 16 Southern California ex tended its lead from Monday’s play and captured the 20-team tournament with a 19-under-par 833 — 22 strokes ahead of second place California. USC was led by Alex Kuyumjian, who captured the individual title with a 7-under par 206. The two-day tourney was held at The Raven at Sabino Springs in Tucson, Ariz., a 6,776 yard, par-71 course. Basketball continued from page 5 Ducks are again on top of the con ference in attendance, bringing in 4,799 fans each game. For the Jan. 13 game against Stanford, the Ducks attracted a Pac-10 season-high 7,602 people. Statin’ it up Statistically, Oregon is among the Pac-10 leaders in most of the major categories. The Ducks rank first in scoring defense (allowing 58.1 ppg), first in field-goal percentage (.467), first in field-goal percentage de fense (.370) and first in three point percentage defense (.278). Oregon held UCLA to a season best 22 percent Saturday, the worst shooting performance in the Pac-10 this year. C3 refill you might just find what you’re looking for.

Give them a break and tell tliem, if they're nice. GEMINI (May 21-June 21); Today is a 6 ; Travel is not a good idea right now, even though your friends are enticing you to try something new and exciting. It may not be quite as won derful as it looks in the photographs. This time, the fantasy may be better than the reality. CANCER (June 22-July 22) Today is a 7 ; Working or shopping could cause a delay. You may be late for a get-together with friends. You can usually use your cellular phone to call if you get stuck in traffic. Technical difficulties could interfere, however. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22); Today is a 6; You'd be wise to simply hold your position. Others will be pushing and shoving, trying to get you to change. Don't let them make you do something you wouldn't have done otherwise. Just take a stand and hold onto it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22); Today is a 7; You could finally get through to your sweetheart.

The ml you find so con fining could be the path of least resistance for them. Be patient and respectful. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19); Today is a 6; Your mind's on love today, not money. But it looks like you need to pay somebody who's tak en over part of your job. When you've generated a little more time, you can spend it on romance. Don't lie; that will only make matters worse. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18); Today is a 7; You need to get all the test questions right be fore you can get that A-plus. Also do the extra credit.
