Hurricane blowout
University of Oklahoma kicker Todd Thomsen of Sapulpa attempts a punt
Saturday, with Tulsa’s Craig Jones staring him in the face. The top ranked
Glenpool resident
is contest winner
By the Herald Staff
Sherri Legg of Glenpool won the latest Herald football contest by miss-
ing throe of 25 games.
She defeated a total of 156 other entrants to gain the $30 first place
prize.
Legg incorrectly predicted the Arkansas-Mi ami, Louisiana Tech-
Kansas and Georgia Tech-Clemson outcomes.
Nine people missed four games, placing them in the running for the
second place prize of $20. But, CJ. Satterfield of Sapulpa won second
place with (he tie breaker, correctly predicting that Rogers would beat
Sapulpa’s Chieftains.
Not one of the winners or runners-up correctly predicted that Georgia
Tech would defeat Clems on. Only two of the top entrants correctly
predicted that Citadel would defeat Army.
Besides Satterfield, those missing four games were: Jim Hendrix, Shea-
na Goodman, Jeannette England, Ida Campbell, Bobbie Lashley, Mae
Baxter. Jerry Lashley, all of Sapulpa, and John Runte of Tulsa. These eight
people came close but did not win a prize this week because they predicted
Sapulpa would defeat Rogers in Friday night’s football game.
A total of three games in this week’s contest could not be counted
because they ended in a tie score. They were: Ohio State-LSU, Northern
Illinois-Northwestern, and Aubum-Termcssce.
The entry farm for this week’s football contest is included on Page 7 of
today’s Herald.

Forecast
Tonight: A 40 percent chance of
showers and thunderstorms and a low
near 60. North wind 5 to 15 mph.
Tuesday: Decreasing cloudiness
and cooler. High in the mid 70s. North
wind 5 to 15 mph.
Wednesday through Friday: Fair
with mild days and cool nights. Highs
mostly in the 70s. Lows 40s in the
Panhandle to 50s elsewhere.
Statewide: Heavy thunderstorms
rumbled across parts of Oklahoma
early today, bringing high winds, rain
and some hail, but no reports of
damage.
A line of very heavy to severe thun-
derstorms formed along the
Oklahoma-Kansas border and drifted
slowly to the south during the early
morning hours. At 5 a.tn., the thunder-
storms were moving south through the
central part of the state and extended
from near Hobart to Oklahoma City to
south of Tulsa.
There were reports of winds reach-
ing 50 to 60 mph, with numerous
reports of winds in excess of 50 mph
coming from the northern half of the
state.
Several severe thunderstorm warn
ings were posted for a few areas before
dawn, but all had expired by daylight.
The cause of the severe storms was
a strong cold front that had stalled
temporarily in southern Kansas. Since
these storms had moved far ahead of
the cold front, they lost support and
diminished below severe limits around
sunrise as they moved into southern
Oklahoma.
The cold front is expected to make
its big push through the state later this
afternoon and tonight so that another
round of very heavy thunderstorms
was possible later
across the state.

Woodward stands
by his Casey claim
WASHINGTON (AP) — Journalist
Bob Woodward stands by his claim
that former CIA Director William J.
Casey admined in a deathbed inter-
view he knew of the diversion of Iran
arms sale money to the Nicaraguan
Contras even though Casey’s widow
says such an interview could not have
taken place.
Writing in his new book, “VEIL:
The Secret Wars of the CIA,
1981-1987,” Woodward said Casey
nodded affirmatively when asked if he
knew about the funds diversion at a
time when Congress had banned U.S.
aid to the rebels.
But Sophia Casey took issue
Sunday with the depiction of Casey's
views of President Reagan and Wood-
ward’s contention that he eluded
security at the hospital and met with
the dying Casey.
In an interview with CBS -TV’s' *60
Minutes’’ on Sunday evening, Wood-
ward, an assistant managing editor at
The Washington Post, reasserted his
story while acknowledging there were
no witnesses to the meeting. He said
the four-minute interview occurred a
few days after he had been ejected
from the hospital by guards, and that
the meeting was arranged with the
help of a source he would not identify.
* ‘ He was dying. It was not the Casey
I knew physically,” Woodward said.
“And so I got one question, and... that
question was: ’You knew about the
diversion, didn’t you?' ... And he
nodded.... And 1 said ’Why?’ And he
said, ‘I believed.”'
Poulos takes
racing request
to commission
Fatality accident—
A Sapulpa man died Saturday when the car he .vas driving went left of

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Will
Rogers Downs track president Bill
Poulos has said he won’t take no for an
answer from the Oklahoma Horse
Racing Commission, when it today
considers his request for a 70-day pari-
mutuel racing meet.
The request has been hotly opposed
by developers of Oklahoma City's
Remngton Park race track.
“We’ve got some options that
allow us not to even deal with them,”
Poulos said recently.
The Will Rogers Jockey A Polo
Club wants to race horses for money
from June 4 to Aug. 26, 1988, at its
new $9 million facility along Oklaho-
ma 20 east of Claremore.
Track officials have said the Will
Rogers Downs racing dates would not
conflict with the 70-day racing meet
already approved for Remingt' n Park,
the huge pari-mutuel track that is sche-
duled to open next fall.
The Remington Park meet is sche-
duled to run from Sept. 1 to Dec. 4,
1988, while Blue Ribbon Downs, the
state's first pari-mutuel track, is seek-
ing 171 racing days in 1988, for a
season from Feb. 20 to Nov. 27.
But Remington Park officials
contend the commission is bound by a
promise not to approve any other
major tracks in the stale until the
combined handle from Remington
Park and Blue Ribbon Downs exceeds
$230 million for two years.
Gordon Hare, executive director of
the commission, has suggested the
commission may waive that rule.
The Oklahoma Horse Racing
Commission will hear arguments for
and against the Claremore track's pari-
mutuel plans Monday, but the
commission staff has recommended
no action be taken until Sept. 30.
Poulos says he’s not optimistic
about the commission decision. “I've
got to be a little scared," he said
recently.
Traffic fatalities
down in August
Asked what Casey “believed,"
Woodward answered, “That we can
change the world. That we can reshape
it. That we can support the Contras,
and we can do what he used to call
‘these things' — covert action."
In the book. Woodward says, "To
this day I do not know why” Casey
agreed to speak to him. Woodward
describes a Dec. 3,1986, phone call in
which he quotes Casey as saying, “I
don’t know why I take your calls.”
Casey died May 6 of complications
after being diagnosed as having a
malignant brain tumor.
Mrs. Casey told The Associated
Press in a telephone interview Sunday
from her Long Island home that
Woodward “was never in the
hospital.”
She said family members were with
Casey constantly when he was hospi-
talized in Washington and on Long
Island and that Secret Service security
officers were posted at his room door
and the elevator door around the clock.
The book also came under attack
Sunday from the Saudi government,
which Woodward alleged provided
money and help to Casey for his
private covert operations, and from
Sheik Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah,
leader of the militant Hezbollah
faction in Lebanon, whom the book
alleged had accepted a $2 million
payoff to stop attacks against Ameri-
cans and U.S. facilities.
Excerpts of Woodward’s book
appeared in today’s and Sunday’s
editions of the Post.
By the Herald Staff

Department of Public Safety show that
