Although a hfe-long Republican, I antici- pate little difficulty ID bringmg myself to vote Democratic in the 39th D1 trict, come Dec. 5. MARKO TEMPLE El Cajon The decision by San Diego Bishop Leo aher to exclude senatorial candidate Lucy K11lea from Holy Communion amounts to re- ligwus blackmail. To her credit, Killea has not b eked down from her pro-choice tand on the abortion issue. The attempts of the Catholic hierarchy - ostensibly a group of celibates - to interpret the emotional and domestic situations of mil- lions of American women in terms of child- bearmg would be ludicrous were it no h an immediate danger to every woman' 1 t to pnvacy in general, and to Killea' freedom of peech and opLDJon, in part c lar th a candi- date's views. Does the administration of the Catholic Church not realize that a move to excommunicate Killea invites - indeed, nee itate - the e1communication of every Catholic on Earth who favors a oman's to choose? Huge fmanclal losses ould surely result from such a mass ei:commurucation, but U the Church is to avoid h pocr· y and remain consis en these actions must be taken immediately, world- wide. I for cne, was born a Catholic and ould welcome excommunication from a church which employs such means of coer- cion. The persuasive means employed by the Catholic Church during the Inquisition have been replaced by tacti more subtle than physical torture but no less shameful. JE5SGOODMAN Pine Va ey The recent controver y o\ er Bishop Maher's action with regard to Lucy KU!ea brings up a subject that I believe is ffilSUn- derstood by the average voter.

He already has beaten the coun- try's pre-season No. 1player and won a national tournament this season. Yesterday at the un·versit of San Diego, he won the 12 annual San Diego All-College Tennis tournament singles and doubles championships for the second consecutive year. And to think, Jose-Luis oriega is just a sophomore at USD - a 19-year old with a consistent basehne game who can attack the net with the best of them. "I know a lot of people are count- ing on me this season," said Noriega, who ~at teammate Chris Toomey, 6- 4, 6-3 m the singles final. "But I never look too far forward. We're young, but we have strong players. I don't ~ant to know what people say - I Just want to play my game." It was a game that was impressive yesterday against the county's best players. Prior to beating Toomey, the top-seeded Noriega defeated San Diego State's Ricardo Herrera 7-5 6- 3 in one semifinal. Toomey ~t SDSU's No. 1 player, Tole Marinko- vic, 3-6, 6-2, 6-1 in the other.

rera-Marinkov1c 6-3, 6-4 in the dou- bles final. "He (Noriega) 1s young, but he plays with a great deal of maturity," USO coach Ed Collins said. "He's got this uncanny ability to almost always make the right decision on the court." Noriega began the year ranked No. 6 nationally, but could improve to No. 3 or 4 after last month's win at the Dupont Indoor Clay Court Cham- pionships in South Carolina. Noriega, a native of Lima, Peru, decided last year he'd rather hit his forehands for a vastly improving team like USD than for a powerhouse like UCLA. He was academically in- eligible for a month and a half early

on, but lost only once in match play. He then became the surprise of the NCAA individual tournament ad- vancing to the round of 16. No:.V he and Marinkovic and the rest of'the ~rea's top players will attempt to improve the.state of San Diego's col- legiate tennis. Noriega says it's al- most time for the UCLA's to take notice. "We always have to travel and piar the big teams," Noriega said. "San Diego tennis is getting better. ~ay~ if we keep improving and San Diego State keeps improving the UCLA's will have to come play ~s." Not many would want to play No- riega nowadays - home or away.
