U.S. cagers sink Cuba
"in riot-marred battle

MOSCOW P) -- 'I saw a
Cuban grab the timer's gun and
heard it go off. I was really
scared."
So said towering Tommy Bur-
leson of North Carolina State
after the fist-swinging, bottle-
throwing brawl that marked the
last seconds of the United States'
98-76 basketball victory over
Cuba yesterday.
"I thought anything could hap-
pen," he added.
Burleson, 7-4, Olympic s t a r,
and Cuban Juan Domeco had fal-
len to the floor after dashing for
a loose ball with 12 minutes left
to play.
As the two collided and fell,
the whole Cuban bench - led by
head coach Ernesto Diaz - emp-

tied and the team came charging
across the court. Diaz chased
American Coach Ed Badger as
Franklin Standart and Domeco
picked up chairs and started
swinging them. A startled Amer-
ican team quickly backed out.
"They wouldn't fight - they
just tried to hit any American
they could from the blind side,"
Burleson said.
Standart knocked down Duane
Woltzen, an assistant U.S. team
manager, with his chair, and
then another Cuban kicked Wolt-
zen in the groin. He needed med-
ical treatment before getting
back on his feet.
Diaz caught up with Badger,
from Wilbur Wright College, and
kicked him in the stomach. The

120 E. LIBERTY-761-1472

CLEVELAND-Gaylord Perry
scattered six hits and finally got
the run he needed to win when
Buddy Bell scored on a wild
throw to give Cleveland a 12-
inning, 1-0 victory over the Chi-
cago White Sox,
Bell was walked by Cy Acosta,
7-5, and then came around to
score when, with one out, Bill
Meltdn fielded Walt Williams'
bunt and threw it into the dirt,
allowing Bell to cross the plate
with the winning run.
Perry, now 14-16, got stronger
as the game progressed, allow-
ing no hits over the last four
innings.

American bore two footprints on
his white shirt.
The court in the Red Army
gym became a circus. Police
swarmed in from adjoining sta-
diums with dozens of Games of-
ficials, and they began chasing
the Cubans around.
Wally Walker, University of
Virginia, fell on broken glass and
suffered a cut on his right hand
requiring three stitches. A bot-
tle had been thrown from the
Cuban bench.
The victory sent the U.S.
team into the semifinals against
Brazil, 61-51 winner o v e r
Czechoslovakia.
Then the next step is tomor-
row's final, where the opponent
is almost certain to be the So-
viet Union, boasting several play-
ers who ruined America's 36-
year Olympic basketball reign at
Munich. The Russiansegaineda
semifinal berth Wednesday by
beating Bulgaria 87-57.
The American women's team,
sith no confidence, gained the
final with a 59-55, incident free
triumph over Cuba, setting up
a Friday showdown with the
Russians, who beat the Ameri-
cans 92-53 in the first round.
"We are a more experienced
and poised team now," said head
coach Jill Upton from Mississip-
pi State. "We may not win, but
the Russians will know they've
been in a fight."
Meanwhile, the Russians won
three of the six events at the
Central Lenin Swimming Pool-
beating Cathy Carr, America's
world record-holder and double
Olympic gold medalist, in t h e
women's 100-meter breaststroke
-and added three gold medals
in tennis.
This boosted the Russian over-
all total to 54 gold medals, 26
silver and 25 bronze. The Unit-
ed States added three golds and
three silvers in swimming and
had a medal count of eight
golds, seven silvers and 13
bronze.
The day's biggest surprise was
the defeat of the 18 year-old
Miss Carr of the University of
New Mexico in the women's 100-
meter breaststroke,
