Women's coach CAROLE KLEINFELDER doesn't have to worry about early season jinxes, because nobody's picking her squad to finish first in the Ivies, especially with the decision of high-scorers ELAINE HOLPUCH and NANCY BOUTILLIER to take a year off.

Much of the grain will come from the U.S., where a bounteous harvest has depressed crop prices and made farmers anxious to sell their surplus abroad. A delegation from the U.S. Agriculture Department travels to Moscov this week with an offer to sell the Soviets 10 million more tons of grain.
