Citizens of Eugene, Oregon, may soon be treated to the spectacle of two movie studios tripping over each other. This summer Disney and Warner plan to shoot competing versions of Pre, the tale of legendary Olympic runner STEVE PREFONTAINE, far left, who died in a 1975 car crash at age 24. Disney, which is spending about $7 million, had the edge initially, shooting crowd scenes last year. But script rewrites slowed the pace.

...burns in the same hospital where several of the people he wounded are recovering. The staff there is on edge after anonymous callers threatened the nurses and doctors who are treating him. "There is a great deal of anger against the man," says TIME South Pacific deputy editor Steve Waterson. "Despite police surveillance inside, someone managed to write 'An Eye for an eye!' on the outer wall of the hospital. Counselors say the unusual fact that the man is still alive makes it difficult for the families of the dead to deal with their loss." Mass murderers often...
