Seiler, 19, a freshman defensive back from Schofield, Wis., had been in a coma and was listed in critical con- ditionall week.rFrom thehstart, his chances for recovery had been described as slim. His injury came near the end of prac- tice last Saturday afternoon, when he tackled a ball carrier during a dummy drill in which players run at only about three-quarters speed. Seiler got up and went back to the, huddle, then returned to the sidelines. Later he complained of dizziness and nausea. He was uncoixz ious by the time a rescue squad arrived.

SPORTS OF THE DAILY: Freshmen pace thinclad opener Special to The Daily CHAMPAGNE, Ill. - The Michigan tracksters opened their 1979 outdoor season 0with a quadrangular non- scoring meet against Illinois, Western Illinois and Northwestern in Cham- pagne yesterday. Instead of team veterans leading the way for Michigan, however, freshmen dominated many of the races and field events. Shelbey Johnson, a freshman from Inkster, beat out a veteran field in win- ning the 400 meter intermediate hurdles in 53.56 seconds. He also finished a strong second to captain Arnett Chisholm in the 110-meter high hurdles with a 14.6 second time. Chisolm was clocked at 14.55.

"In these 50-point games it seems like a flip of the coin will make the differen- ce," said Fitzpatrick of her close mat- ch. "It was tight. It's so shsort about anything could have happened." Fitzpatrick didn't begin playing pocket billiards until she was 17, and then it was only because her boyfriend played. "I used to lose, and that was dull," she said, "so I practiced until I could beat him." ' Practice is the word. Fitzpatrick estimates she puts in at least two hours three nights a week in maintaining her talent. Lhotka is no differentk, the champion gets in his four hours a day at the table without fail. Lhotka, who fhad the highest run of the tourney with 47 balls, plans to enter the Air Force once he graduates, while still honing his pool game in hopes of a pro career. Lhotka and Fitzpatrick were un- defeated in the 'double-elimination competition, while Cockrum and Soules each had to battle back from the loser's bracket to the finals after losing to Fit- zpatrick and Lhotka respectively in preliminary round action. 36-inch barriers. "It takes time to ad- just to the college level, but I'm im- proving every week," said the lanky freshman. "Next week at the Dogwood Relays (in Knoxville, Tenn.) I'll run a 51-flat," Johnson added. Steve Brandt, another freshman, running unattached, coasted to a sur- prise victory in the grueling 10,000- meter run. Since he was a half-miler throughout high school, his win in the six-plus mile race was especially im- pressive, as was his 30:49.5 clocking against a very strong wind. "I just found out I was running in the middle of the week, so I took advantage of the opportunity. But I'm excited," said Brandt. Other outstanding performances came in the 800-meter run from fresh- men Mark Pruente and Mike Shea, who finished fifth and sixth respectively. Jimmy Ross leaped an outstanding 24-8 in the long jump. However, the veterans also posted solid efforts. Mike Lattany was runner- up in the high jump at seven feet, Dan Heikkinen easily won the 3,000-meter. steeplechase in 9:03.4 and co-captain Steve Elliott was third in the 1,500- meter run in 3:50.6. Chisolm also tied for third with teammate Darold Gholston in the 200-meter dash with a 21.5 clocking. -ANDREA POCH IOC admits China MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay (AP)- Communist China and Taiwan are now officially in the Olympic Games, provided they can work out between themselves a formula for peaceful coexistence. After three days of bargaining at its session here, the Internatonal Olympic Committee . passed a resolution recognizing the Olympic Committee in Peking. It refused to throw out its recognized member, Taiwan, as Peking has been demanding for years. - SINCE 1975, when Peking applied for recognition, a solution has appeared impossible.But in the last few days the brick wall against which the IOC had been hammering suddenly began to give. Peking, after insisting that Taiwan must be treated-as a subsidiary part of China, changed its tune. A delegtion from the Olympic Committee of the People's Republic said it would agree, as an -interim measure, to the IOC directly recognizing a separate Olym- pic committee on the island. Taiwan, which for years has ob- stinately clung to the old name of the Republic of China, agreed to consider using a different name and flag for the Olympic Games. LORD KILLANIN, president of the IOC, said, "The progress has been remarkable. I hope now we can keep the door open and help the two parts of China to reach agreement on. details. If the door is slammed now it will not be my fault."
