condition
DALLAS (AP) - The
youngest of the popular wrestl-
ing Von Erich brothers con-
tinued to fight for his life early
a Dallas hospital
today in
against a rare case of toxic
shock syndrome.——
Mike Von Erich, 21, remained
in critical condition in Baylor
University Medical Center, a
hospital spokeswoman said.
Hospital officials Friday said
his prognosis was “poor’^and
the sometimes-fatal disease had
almost completely shut down his
kidneys.
While toxic shock syndrome
usually strikes women who use
tampons, Dr. William Sutker
said men have contracted the
disease from isolated infections.
In" V6n Erich's case, Sutker
said the bacterial infection,
which attacks the body’s vital
organs, began in the shoulder
area. The wrestler had surgery
last week for a dislocated
shoulder at Morton Cancer and
Research Hospital.
The young man was stricken
just over a year after the family
lost anotHer broker to a sudden
Infection.
The 21-year-old is one of five
sons reared near Dallas by Doris
and J Adkisson. Adkisson was
once the reigning villain of the
wrestling world and attracted a
loyal following around the world.
Sutker said Friday that Von
Erich’s fever had gone as high
as 107 degrees' and he almost
died Thursday night.

The family was shaken when
Mike appeared close to death,
brother Kevin said.
“A miracle took place last
(Thursday) night, just that we
have Michael with us today,” he
said.
Mike Von Erich’s 25-year-old
brother, David, died in a Tokyo
hotel room on Feb. 10, 1984, of
acute enteritis, an inflammation
of the intestine, following a
wrestling match.

.' “They really seem to be a nice
hunch of kids,” Hefley said.
“Right now, they look like one of
the best groups I’ve had. The
overall talent might not be as
good. But if they play harder
than past groups, I think we’ll
have better luck.”
Rebel notes: A former player
binder Hefley will lend a
coaching hand1 this season.
Raleigh Farris, a teacher in the
La Porte school system, enjoyed
some strong seasons while at
LC. Farris isn’t a new face to all
(of this year’s players, since he
scouted some of them in high

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK (AP) - John
McEnroe, Boris Becker, Mar-
tina Navratilova and Chris
Evert Lloyd were supposed to
take the U.S. Open by storm.
A storm beat them to it.
On today’s weather-
restructured schedule, Ivan
Lendl was to complete his match
against Bill Scanlon on the
stadium court, followed by
McEnroe, the defending cham-
pion, against Bud Schultz, Lloyd
against Grace Kim and Becker,
the West German Wimbledon
winner, against Kelly Everndon
of New Zealand.
Navratilova, the defending
women's champion, who was to
have played Friday night’s final
match against Lisa Bonder on
the stadium court, was shuttled
to the grandstand court today.
Before the rain came Friday,
the two No. 4 seeds, Jimmy Con-
nors and Pam Shriver, advanced
to the third round with ease.
Shortly after 4 p.m. EDT, as
the daytime matches were draw-
ing to a close, rain swept across
the National Tennis Center.
On the grandstand court,
Lloyd and her women’s doubles
partner, Carling Bassett, hur-
riedly wrapped up their 6-2, 6-4
victory over Lillian Drescher of
Switzerland and Etsuko Inoue of
Japan.
On 10 other courts, players
headed for cover.
Suddenly, the drizzle turned
vicious. Lightning ripped
through the sky, thunder rocked
the steel-and-concrete stadium,
hailstones rattled like machine
gun fire. The wind tore down
fences, tents and power lines,
and uprooted trees.
The storm blew over within 10
minutes, leaving an 18-inch pool
on the center court and washing
out the rest of the day’s and all of
the evening matches.
Cavanaugh threw for two scores
and Mike Moroski guided the
drive to the clinching field goal,
Seattle Coach Chuck Knox
downplayed the loss, which left
the Seahawks 2-2.
“I don’t think it’s that impor-
tant,” Knox said, “but you’d like
to win every game you play.”
Elsewhere Friday, it was San
Diego 21, New Orleans 20; the
New York Giants 24, Pittsburgh
14; Washington 20, Tampa Bay
7; the Los Angeles Raiders 26,
Cleveland 7; Atlanta 19, Miami
17; Cincinnati 31; Indianapolis
21, and Minnesota 13, Denver9.
On Thursday, Philadelphia
beat Detroit 20-16.

San Diego required last-
second kicking heroics and got
them from linebacker Billy Ray
Smith. Kicking barefoot, Smith
made a 17-yard field goal with no
time remaining for the hosts.
Giants 24, Steelers 14
At Pittsburgh, the Giants com-
pleted a 5-0 exhibition campaign
as veteran Phil Simms con-
verted 19 of 38 passes for 233
yards and second-year pro Jeff
Hostetler threw for two fourth-
quarter scores. Lawrence
Taylor’s interception halted a
Pittsburgh scoring drive and his
third-quarter fumble recovery
set up the clinching touchdown
by Lionel Manuel.
“It means nothing,” said
Giants Coach Bill Parcells.
“Everybody is 0-0 next week.
But I thought we played pretty
well. This was our best game.”
Pittsburgh finished the
preseason 1-3, its first losing ex-
hibition record since 1975.
Redskins 20, Buceaneers 7
Washington cornerback Dar-
rell Green returned an intercep-
