Top American sprinter Maurice
Greene, who took second in the
men's 100-meter dash, said track and
field needs days like Saturday to take
the focus off the steroid controversy.
"This is what it's all about," Greene
said. "For the fans in the stands. If it
wasn't for them, there wouldn't be a
meet for us." There is no doubt that a
negative image is being associated
with track and field around one of the
most important times in the sport:
The United States Olympic Trials
wtwmsetea&w*
begin at Sacramento in three weeks.
Jones, who is at the center of the con
troversy, is arguably the most popular
women's track athlete of all time. When
reporters met with the three-time
Olympic gold medalist, eight of the 11
questions asked during the six-minute
interview dealt with the drug scandal.
"Off the track, it's definitely affecting
me," Jones said. "But in terms of my
training and my competing ... I think
I'm doing as well as can be done. I'm
trying to stay as focused as possible. I'm
hopeful that I'll be competing in Sacra
mento and give everybody a run for
their money and make my second
Olympic team and then be in Athens."
With the Summer Olympics right
around the corner, it is necessary the
several dozen athletes under investi
gation and LISADA find a solution. If
not, questions will linger around the
results of what should be a true test of
the world's best athletes.
I low long will this drug scandal last
until it is resolved?
"I see it going through the Trials
and probably right up to the Games,"
Jones said.
What a shame.

students," Du Four said.
Housing standards, or Eugene's lack
thereof, has long been a focus of ASIJO
efforts and is "one of the campaigns in
which strong voter registration is real
ly the key, because [city councilors]
need to know that we can affect their
positions," Petkun said.
The administration hopes that a
strong voter-registration drive will
lead to a strong housing standards
campaign and a greater student
awareness of ASIJO, Petkun said.
Most pressing on the publicity agen
da is the need fora functioning Web site
where students can go for information
about ASIJO projects, Public Relations
Director Nathan Strauss said. 'Through
that I think we can build sort of a plan
to publicize ASIJO," he added.
Once positions are filled and proj
ect plans are organized and finalized,
the administration can begin building
momentum for the year, Petkun said:
"The more work we put in now the
easier it's going to be for everyone and
the more effective we can be for the
rest of the year."
ASIJO Vice President Mena Ravas
sipour said she feels the ASUO staff is
organized.
"We're looking forward to making
things happen and working together,"
she said.
