That surpassed the world standard of 53.38 established by Morales last month in the U.S. Olympic trials. Morales, 19, whose parents moved to the United States from Cuba in 1957, also was under his previous world mark, clocking a 53.23 after leading most of the second lap of the two-lap race. "This is absolutely unbelievable," Gross said. I cannot believe it. It is amazing, can it be. I thought perhaps I could swim a 53.5, but 53.0, that is amazing. Iam almost speechless." "I SWAM my best time and got beat by a great athlete," Morales said. In the qualifying heats, Morales and Gross both erased the last listing of 1972 Olympic hero Mark Spitz from the record books. Spitz, who won seven golds and set seven world records in the Munich Games, went into the day with the Olympic record of 54.27, but he said before the prelims he expected the record to fall and it did. Glenn Buchanan of Australia was third in the final, taking the bronze in 53.85. IN ANOTHER medal final, the United States got a 1-2 sweep in the women's 200 freestyle from Mary Wayte of Mercer Island, Wash., and Cynthia Woodhead of Riverside, Calif. Baumann, who wears a diamond stud in his left ear and a red maple leaf tatoo on his chest, was timed in 4:17.41 in the individual medley. Former world record-holder Ricardo Prado of Brazil was second in 4:18.45, while Robert Woodhouse of Australia was third in 4:20.50. Americans Jesse Vassallo and Jeff Kostoff, both swim- ming with shaved heads, were fourth and sixth, respectively, in the first swimming event that the United States failed to win a medal. 0 OLYMPIC ROUNDmUP: U.S. triumphs in small-bore rifinKg 0 CHINO, Calif.

(UPI) - Japan rallied from a surprising 15-8 first-set upset to claim a 15-11, 15-2, 15- 7 victory yesterday over Korea in the opening of the women's Olympic volleyball preliminaries. The two Group A openers at night featured China against Brazil in the first game and the United States making its debut against West Germany in the second. KUMI NAKADA, 18-year-old setter for Japan, rallied from a shakey first set to regain her accuracy and repeatedly put hitters Sachiko Otani and Yuko Mitsuya in position for kills. Yumi Egani and Emiko Odaka also began blocking more shots that Korean setter Un-Yim Lee was get- ting to her attackers, a key to the underdog's first-set success. "At the very beginning I was incredibly nervous," said Otani, whose 18 kills equal her age and tied Kimie Norita for the team lead, "and didn't know what was really going on." men's Basketball INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP), - U.S. basketball Coach Bobby Knight had little to complain about in the Americans' opening 97-49 romp over China in the Olympic tournament. In fact, Knight, known for his badgering of of- ficials, patted the referee on the back after a brief discussion in Sunday's game. BUT THE opening day of the tournament, featuring eight men's games, was not without con- troversy. In a ruggest contest, Uruguay edged France 91-87 in overtime and the French coach charged the Uruguayans with illegal tactics. Other games saw Yugoslavia, the 1980 gold medalist, beat West Germany 96-83; Italy, the European champion, rip Egypt 110-62; Australia top Brazil 76-72, and Spain defeat Canada 83-82. boxing LOS ANGELES (AP) - Paul Gonzales became the second American boxer to advance at the Olympics when he dominated Kwang-Sun Kim of South Korea yesterday in a opening round match in the 106-pound class. The 5-foot-8% inche Gonzales, of East Los Angeles, cheered on wildly by a pro-American crowd at the Sports Arena, peppered the shorter Korean with head punches and knocked him down with left-right to the jaw in the first round. Gonzales, ranked third by International Amateur. Boxing Association, also forced him to take a stan- ding-8 count in the first round and never let the Korean get into the fight. World champion Rafael Sainz of Cuba, which is not participating in the Games, is ranked No. 1. Weightlifting LOS ANGELES (AP) - Finland's Arvo Ojalheto, a four-time Scandinavian champion, hoisted 303 poun- ds 137.5 kilograms in the clean and jerk to take the early lead yesterday in the Olympic 123-pound 56 kilogram weightlifting class. Ojalehto's total was 5341/2 pounds 242.5 kilograms - the same as Algeria's Ahmed Tarbi - but he earned first because he weighed slightly less than the African record holder. Gold medal favorite Wu Shude of China and his ex- pected challengers, Lai Runming of China and Romania's Gheorghe Maftei, were to lift in the evening session at Loyola Marymount University. Ojalehto, a 25-year-old carpenter from Kauhajoki, took the early overall lead after successfully racking the weight on his chest and thrusting it upward on his third clean and jerk attempt. 6 4' a
