Cy JinEcy -
Within a month, everytMng at the new
$14 miIcn UU Sports Gempiax on the
eit2 fairgrounds should be running st full,
cepacity-flneily.
Thet wes the carservetivs estimata given
by Jim Ross, Sports Ccmp!sx manex.
Roes seiJ there are a few "litila" things
thct stiil need to be corseted.
The scoreboard in the basketbsSl saa
js being put up and that w21 be completed
in tsro trab," floss sssd. "The wrestling
practice area is t3 dsns except for the mats .
3 en the wes and rra're doing that
ourselves. That wilt be finished within the
momfr."
Ross ssM the swimming area already
m;tt . haes been finished except far a
nunar probSstn.
"We had some problems with the tile

floss said the sssts for the new irsdacr
"trade facility will bein'to be instsTgd next '
-.week and .should be m place-in two to
three weeks.
Head trade coach Frank Semens sakf fite
new indoor track would he!p his prcysn
in the Feng run.
It will he!p our program ovcra!!,"
Savins se;d "but it wilt hsfp our recruit
ing program vary little with the FICAA re
cruiting limitations. It makes -the whele
. situation a little ridiculous aftsr spending
$14 million to bui.'d a beautiful feei.'ity
like that."
Sti3, Seviis said he locks forward to
the opportunity to compete in the new
track area. ;
V.YII have ail hasne meets this seseon,
so this wE! help our budget by staying at
home. I think well see same income from
the track, season. Whatever comes in is
gravy and people will want to come here to
run assnst us. It's one cf the better com
pfaxes in the United States."
floss echoed Sevijne's fedinjs.
"OveraS. there is none better," Ross
ssU of the complex. "There might be
others with larger capacities or better in
dividual swimming and track facilities."

Ross said that thus far, there has been
no decision as to who may use the new
facilities.
He stressed that it woufd be difficult for
the ccrrrpiex to remain sclfpcrtstg if
the facilities alleys are epen to U.L
faculty and students.
"It would cost us to kssp these areas
cpan end to operate them with nothing in
return," Roes seid. "The indoor tennis area
will prcbatfy be the meet widefy used
facility. We woJ prcieth hsve to char;
a szxzll fee for the use cf the courts.
"Another a!ternetres woidd be to charts
the Cty Rsereetlent, Dept., which uses
several ferities and buidins on this
Rees added that he didn't want to shut
faculty and students out.
"The final decision is net mine," Ross
said. "We don't want to keep anybody cut,
but it wotdd be hard to let them in without
getting anything in return."
