But the Univel"Slty of San Diego 5\Iould buck up when I ys _a Azusa Pacific today at 1 30 for its last game. Christian Okoye won't be there. Okoye, 6-loot-l and 253 po~nds th 4.4 speed in the 40, was the first- round draft choice of the Kansas City Chiefs in 1987. USD could have pro- vided the Chiefs quite a scouting re- port. The Toreros faced Okoye, a run• ning back, five times, losing each, ugh Azusa w.o_,.,. m be- cause a p ayer was ineligible). In l984, USD had an open date to fill. Guess which school the Toreros picked? . "Real intelligent," recalled Brian Fogarty, USD's coach. ''We faced hlID twice that year l'he last two years (1985-86) were the toughest be- ause he got better and better. He ust was awesl)me He dominated - we have some former defensive layers who can attest to that ... He as playing against guys who eighed 200 and had 5-flat speed. It's ruce not to (face Okoye again). ' More good news: USD learned that ts record is 5-3, not 4-4, because !Menlo has been forced to forfeit its ames as a result of 'paperwork problems," Fogarty said. ~hat's too bad. You want it on tbe field - I ~uess it will look nice in the future, n a brochure." Azusa (5-2) lost to •enlo last week, 7·24. The Cougars present l1SD's trong defense "ith two problems, ogarty said. •Their quarterback !Brian Hunt, 71-of-154, 915 yards, eight touchdowns, 13 interceptions) an pass, but he can also run the op- ion." USD will be without sophomore ornerback Darryl Jackson, who in- jured a knee in last week's 13-10 loss o UC-Santa Barbara.

Against Men!? tt was 18-17, but earher this week Menlo had to forfeit all 7 of its wins b cause it hadn't filed the neces• sary eligibility papers on its ath- letes Head Coach Brian Fogarty might have been able to handle those los.~es better were 1t not for 3 other losses d c1ded m the final moments or the game. On the field, USO lost 5 games by an average of 3 points. 1 wice IJSD gave up a winning touchdown late m the fourth quar- ter and three times the TcrPros failed to ~core on their final drive wh n they appeared to be heading to v,~tory, Saturday was no differ• ent 1ra1hng H-13, USO drove to Azusa Pacific's 29-yard line with les than 3 mmutes remaining-but £ailed to convert on a fourth and 2 i.ituat,on. Azusa Pacific (7-1) torik over on downs and ran out thP clock The Torcros needed Just a few more yards to be within Jim Morri- son's field goal range. 1'hc sopho- more kicker had made h, first two attempts, both in the th rd quarter, fron 37 and 2.'3 yarns. ''I've never seen anything hke it," said Fogar- ty. "!l's hcen I.re story of our sf'ason." USO Fullback Todd Jackson ru htcd 21 times for 84 yards m-

eluding a second quar tPr I- yard touchdown The Toreros' defense allowed Azusa Pacific 164 yards on 53 carries. USO set a smgle season school record for fewest rushmg yards allowed with 663 for a 73.6- yard average. / ,

Trial l awyers, realizing they're as popular as Jane Fonda at an American Legion convention, insist Proposition 100 isn't really their initiative. And insuran ce companies, knowing they're as popular as lawyers, wish Proposition 104 wasn't called the insurance-companies' initiative.

force payment for the pam and suffering the broken leg caused if he can prove another person was at fault. o-fault. m its most basic form . panly reverses this trend Under no-fault, if a person suffers a broken leg m an auto accident, h,s msurance company will pay to have the broken leg repaired regardless of fault, but the vicnm receives nothing for pai_n and suffering. Some legal expens say this makes a lot of sense. "If I die," argues Jeffrey O'Connell, professor of law at the Univer- siry of Virgrnia. "my msurance compariy, diiesn ' t ask me 1f I'm at fault m any way. They don't ask did I smoke, or did I eat too many fatty foods . o, they just ask me tf I'm dead." O'Connell mamtam that trying to "quantify pam in every traffic accident" is ab urd. But others argue that by preventing people from seeking redress through the ton system , no-fault treats human bemgs like propcny. Even Allen Katz, who wrote 104, the insurers' no-fault propo ·,tion; seems to agree with this. Katz began to explam his view of no-fault by saying, "Proposition 104 treats inJury cases more like .. ... but then slopped himself He went on to ay that when one has a television stolen. one does not receive payment for mental anguish. Roben Fellmeth. of the L!w.vccsi!,y a£ an Di~enter for l..Q_w in t~nterest. suggests a compromise . H-;' argues for simple no-fault at levels less than $10,000. In other words, if less than than $10.000 worth of personal injury or property damage was done. a no-fault plan would kick in. But, if damage in excess of that amount was innicted, a plamtiff could seek relief in tort for pain and suffenng . The problem wi1h this debate 1s that there is no-fault. and then there 1s no-fault. Twenty-six states currently have a no-fault system, but they are all different. Some have been disa ters. Nevada ovenumed its no-fault law. Others, like Michigan's, are cited as successes . Unlike the no-fault initiatives, Propositions 100, 103 and 106 keep the present ton system intact, though Propos111on 106 would take away much of its appeal for attorneys. Pro71on @ N O\. EMBER 1988

would have won by four minutes," said Thompson. In Thompson's defense, portions of the course were poorly marked and many competitors remarked how the race as a whole seemed disorganized, in contrast to other stops on the first-year 12-city Coors Light Biathlon Series. In the poorly marked areas such as the site of Thompson's confusion, there were no race offi. c1als to direct competitors the right way. Reyes, 27, said he and the other leaders also began head- ing the wrong direction where Thompson made his error, but quickly corrected themselves. • In the women's race, San Diego's Tonya Grant won in her first attempt at either a biathlon or triathlon. A surprised Grant, a USP graduate who has been eye!- mg for a year and has run once in the past three months, finished in 1:31.19, followed by Laura Lowe in 1:32:27. 'I didn't want to look behind me," said Grant, 23. "I thought ev- eryone was gomg to pass me on the run."
