June I 9 l h the finest athletes in the United Slates took the track for the final day of decathlon competition. The Olympic decathlon winner is gener ally recognized as the finest athlete in the world. I t is today the culmination of all those dreams, those long hours of train ing, that it is all pul on the line. Unfortu nately, Oregon’s Craig Brigham was put on the line two months earlier. W hile at the peak of his training program Craig was hit with the strength sapping illness called mononeudeosis. Six weeks ago the lymph nodes in Brigham's face were so swollen that the very movement o f his eyeballs was pain ful. Just four weeks ago he was dragging and could barely make it to class. Saturday he almost made it despite the illness. One event to go. the most gruelling of all - the 1500 meters. This is the rare that has shattered many hopes and dreams. “I was thinking I had to stay up with Fred Samara." said Brigham of the man who subsequently got the bronze. “Fred went out fast, but so did 1. Too fast, really, but that was okay because 1 Great holiday weekend ***+ l * * * * * * * For the nation’s 200th birthday w e will be CLO SED T H E 4th buys. was up with him. "W ith two laps to go I passed Gough and said to myself, now pull on Samara', but it just wasn't there. M y brain said, "Go" but the body couldn't respond." Four years ago Brigham was a do-it-all track man at South Eugene.And if my hunch is correct, four years from now Craig Brigham w ill represent the United States in the Olympic Games. Craig Brigham is 22 years old. This fall he goes to Northw estern Medical School. “I w ent through my undergraduate work giving academics my first priority," he said, "and I ’ll do the same in medical school. I ’m predicting what I will do. I'd like to continue competing, but I just don't know w hat I'll do." (Photo: Debra Mischiar) Saturday night. Timbers win at last! The hand of Fate finally switched sides and the Portland Tim bers beat the San Jose Earthquakes I - 0 Saturday night at the Stadium. Portland had loot tw o earli er games to penalty kick«, but finally got the referee on her side. N eil Rioch scored for Portland a fter San Jose's John Row lands was called for tripping inside the penalty area. The game contained only occasional excitement. The Tim bers had several shots on goal, but none came close to going in. San Jose's offense was .neffec five throughout the game, but Portland goalie,Jim Cumbes bad to make tw o good saves, tim b e r newcomers. Hank L iotart and John Rogers played very well but P o ta r t was obviously out of shape. He had been used only sparingly by the Seattle Sounders before being sold to Portland. Jim m y K elly had another great game, as did Paul Hendrie. Besides Rioeh'a penalty kick the only really exciting moment in the game came w ith 1:40 le ft in the game. Seldom-used Roger Goldingay headed the ball into the net for w hat apparently was his first ever N A S L goal. The crowd roared and the Tim ber players gathered around Goldin gay. But a fter deliberating w ith a lines man, referee W erner Winsemman disal lowed the goal, ruling Goldingay offside«. The win ended Portland’« five game losing streak, their longest ever. M r. K ie k -It spends half his tim e leading cheers and the other half being pelted w ith litte r from the stands.

A short two years ago on this same Oregon track Curry captured both the 100 and 220 in times of 9.6 and 21.7. When asked how he liked running for the University of Oregon he replied, “It's really great to run here. These Eugene fans are something else. They really turn you on." Curry figures he had a good year this year but ia adm ittedly looking for ward to next season. “The training nere is tough. There’s no comparison between my training in high school and w hat I do now. We start working out in February and never stop." Curry has gained three pounds since ma triculating a t Oregon. He feels that extensive work in the weight room has made him stronger. All through high school Curry felt the 100 was hia beat race, but after a couple of years in Eugene the 200 has become his favorite. On thia beautiful day in Eugene Robert Curry stood proudly in the middle of the track and said, "You know, today I'm here as a spectator but four years from now I hope to be here (Olympic trials) as a participant."
