From the Renter News
. Report
NEW YORK - Former world
heavyweight champion Muham
mad Ali underwent emergency
tests today for a mysterious ail
ment that has sapped his energy,
slurred his speech and slowed his
walk to a shuflle.
As Ali, 42, underwent the tests
in the neurological ward of Co-,
lumbia Presbyterian Hospital, his
personal doctor, Martin Ecker
told Reuters he thought there
was a possibility Ali might be suf
fering from an ailment known as
Boxer's Parkinson's, but not from
Parkinson's Disease itself.
Boxer's Parkinson's results from
the trauma of being hit frequently
in the head. It produces seme
symptoms of the neurological dis
order Parkinson's Disease, includ
ing a mask-like facial appearance,
a shuffling gait and muscular rig
idity. Ecker ruled out whispered pos
sibilities that Ali was either suf
fering from being "punch-drunk"
or from Alzheimer s Disease,

which has symptoms similiar to
senility.
Howard Sraailowitz. a spokes
man for Columbia Presbyterian,
said the tests would probably be
concluded by early next week.
He declined to speculate on
what might be ailing the fighter,
who dominated boxing for years
until his retirement in 1981. Ali is
considered by some to be the
greatest heavyweight ever.
Asked if Ali had Parkinson's
Disease, Smallowitz said, "If we
had a definitive diagnosis, there'd
be no purpose in taking any tests."
Ali was discharged from the
same hospital eight days ago after
being admitted for undisclosed
reasons. He then left on a busi
ness trip to West Germany.
Ali joked and made light of his
medical problems but admitted
he did not know what was wrong
with him, at Kennedy Interna
tional Airport Tuesday night.
The terrible truth is that I
dont know. I always feel very
tired, but I don't feel no pain," he
said.

learn anything from the game,
We need to move along every
game.
The Huskers won the match
15-6, 15-6, and 15-3. Nebraska
