Houston, at nght guard
Audrey McMillian has
moved from quarterback to
free safety leaving Wilson as
the lone returning letterman
at the position Wilson’s early
fall practice will be critical
because he missed spring
drills because of arthroscopic
knee surgery
Lionel definitely could
have used the work in the spr-
ing There s no doubt about
it. Yeoman said He really
needed to work on his tuning
with the receivers
Houston returns a strong
receiving < orps including
split end Larry Shepherd.
Our offensive line,
although it is not real deep
looks like it can play a little
better, Yeoman said
Guard Scott Marshall is the
lone returning starter in the
offensiveline
Biles said Perry’s arrest
had absolutely nothing to
do with the decision to put
him on waivers
Well only keep three
safeties, and Vernon wasn t
rated at the top of the group
Biles said There s an awful
lol of competition among the
defensive backs and the
coaches felt like the others
were doing better
By waiving Vernon now
he U have a better chance to
catch on with another team
than if we d have waited until
the final roster cut-down,"
Biles said

Monday
I've done a lot of

like I can go anywhere and

ting that chance here I just
felt like it was tune for me to

Oilers Coach Ed Biles said

inventor of the veer offense
is joining the trend toward
the I formation
We ll probably run some
of the offensive formations
from the I everybody else
does Yeoman said Being
in the 1 is not going to bother
us.”
Yeoman hopes use of the I
formation will help the
< ougar offense dig cut from
the doldrums that con-
tributed to last season’s 5-5-1
record
Another change however,
has nothing to do with offen-
sive formations
At the quarterback spot
and this doesn’t come as a
shock, we re going to have to
get more careful play
Yeoman said We c an t have
the fumbles and the intercep-
tions that we ve had the last
couple of years and still ex
pect to play the way we
should
Lionel Wilson established
12 UH records and gained
3,766 total yards in the last
two seasons for the second
highest total in UH history
But fumbles and intercep-
tions have checkered his per
formance
Wilson is a very gifted
athlete but he has to be more
I'm very disappointed
but I will be back next year.”
Ashford promised after lear-
ning that she had suffered a
torn hamstring muscle and
her recovery period would be

An AP Sports Analysis
By HI M Ht VI IK IK AP
Sports Writer
The practice” for the va-
cant World Hosing tCouncil
welterweight champion is
just what Colin Jones needed
At least that’s opinion of
Eddie Thomas, a cool
Welshman, who knew how to
fight and knows how to han
die fighters
Jones, also a Welshman,
lost at least the first five
rounds against lanky Milton
McCrory of Detroit last
March 1» at Reno, Nev , then
battled back to gain a
12-round draw in a fight for
the title left vacant when
Sugar Ray Leonard retired
last November
Now he knows how being a
champion feels or being a
half champion, said Thomas
of the 24-year-old Jones, who
will fight McCrory in a title
rematch in the desert heat of
Las Vegas, Nev , the kind of
heat that has made good
fighters blow their cool
Thomas feels that the 12
rounds against McCrory in
Marc h can only help Jones
Jones has scored 21
knockouts in winning 24 fights
his only loss was on a dis
qualification - and between
his knocking out Sakrai Ve in
the second round at London
Sept 14, 1982, and his March
fight against McCrory he
fought less than two rounds
(in Nov 4, Jones, already
the British welterweight
champion won the European
title by knocking out Henrik
Palm of Denmark in Round 2
at Copenhagen in a fight that
had been postponed when
Jones developed appen
dicitis
But what about 12 rounds in
90-100 degree heat’ McCrory
is an Emanuel Steward
fighter and is used to training
in the hell like heat of the
Kronk Gym in Detroit, which
can get pretty hot at times
outside too
But Thomas feels Jones has
prepared for the heat
Perry Mid he was not bit
ter' about his release, but ad
ded. I don't think I was
given a chance to prove
myself
I was knocked down from
first- to third-team so I felt it
was best to go to Eddie
Biles and tell him to put me
cm waivers so I'll have a
chance to catch on with
another team "
If Perry is claimed by
another NFL team, he still
faces a possible suspension
by Commissioner Pete
Mi
Perry is trying to get the
charges dropped However if
he is convicted of possession
of cocaine, he could face a
penalty similar to that given
to Pete Johnson, Ross
Browner, Greg Stemrick and
EJ Junior All four were
suspended July 25 through
the fourth game of the
regular season because of
their involvement with co-
caine
to fight
it was very hot in Wales
while Jones was training
there 85-92. which is ab-
normal and I had him run
ning every day," said
Thomas A lot of that running
was uphill, and hill in Wales
is a hill with capital H
Then for two weeks in
Reno we trained in the open
near the swimming pool
every day at 2pm said
Thomas The temperature
was near 100 and it was 107
one day "
So. Junes appears ready to
handle the heat. and Thomas
feels he can handle MeCrory .
too
As for the 21 -year-old Me
Crory. who at 6-foot-1 holds a
five-inch height advantage
but only a 1, reach advan
tage over Jones Thomas
feels hell jab and move
from the outset He says he
< an come forward and back
Colin up. and I hope he tries "
its fun to talk about boxing
with Eddie Thomas He never
fought for a world title
although he was a British and
European champion and for
three months in 1950 was the
No 1 welterweight contender
to Sugar Ray Robinson
in 10.97, leading a 1-1 East
German sweep
She was not very sym-
pathetic after capturing the
gold medal
That is her problem, not
mine, that she couldn't make
it," Gohr said about
Ashford's injury
"I know how to beat
Ashford now,” she added 1
let Ashford win yesterday 1 in
Sunday’s second-round

The injury to Ashford over
shadowed a 1-2-3 American
sweep in the men's 1M. led by
Carl lewis, and a surprising
