(UPI) - The Secretary General of the United States Olympic Committee said yesterday he was not yet convinced the Soviet Union would participate in the 1988 summer Olympics, but said he would personally go to Moscow in hopes of increasing the chances of a boycott-free Games. "I recently met with the president of the International Olympic Commit- tee (Juan Antonio Samaranch)," said USOC executive chief George D. Miller, "and he assures me the Eastern bloc countries and the Soviets are coming to the Games. I'm a little more skeptical. I am not yet convin- ced. I don't think the Soviets have decided yet. I think it all has to do with the political atmosphere at the time. "ADDITIONAL boycotts could destroy the Games and that is something we don't want." Miller's remarks came on the eve of the opening ceremonies of the sixth National Sports Festival, a gathering of more than 3,000 American amateur athletes in 34 Olympic and Pan American Games sports. Miller said his first meeting with Soviet athletic officials would come shortly after the end of the festival. "Bob Helmick (president of the USOC) and myself will go to Moscow 4 to try to work out an exchange arrangement," Miller said. "We want to do everything we can to make it easier for the Soviets to come to Seoul in 1988."
