...Chicago Blackhawk Bobby Hull is a perfect example of this changing attitude among athletes. I remember how he scored two goals in a Stanley Cup game against Detroit despite a badly broken nose. Yet when he went to the WHA, he bowed to the reality of financial exigencies. Athletes cannot make mythical tax paymenns. Thus, perhaps, it was only a matter of time before the shattering of the fans' illusion of men playing only because they love the game.

U.S. team member Cary Adgate continued his hot streak from the World Cup circuit with a narrow victory over fellow U.S. ski team members Geoff Bruce and Bobby Cochran. Bruce led at the end of the first run by .6 seconds, but both he and Cochran raced conservatively on the second run, leaving the way open for a go-for-broke attack by Adgate...
