LOCAL BRIEFS 'A Stewart, Baron go in final Thome, Campbell in the 3-4 singles Fourth-seeded David Stewart of SD will play third-seeded Yoram aron of U IU in today's 11 a.m. fmal of the 1-2 division in the San Diego Intercollegiate tennis tourna- ment at USO. Stewart defeated Tim Fresenius of Cal Poly San Luis Obispo 6-2, 7-5 in yesterday's semifinals. Baron made the fmal when USD' Jo ·e Lws No- riega had to default their emifin~l match. Noriega sprained an ankle m a quarterfinal win over Tole Marin- kovic, San Diego State's No. 1 player. Top-seeded Ken Thome and fifth- edcd Steve Campbell of Rice will play In the 3-4 singles final at 9:30 am. IISQ teammates Dan Mattera and Rick Matheson will play m the 5-6 finals, also at 9:30. Top-seeded Mat- tera defeated SOSU's Bill Kearsley 6- 6-2 in one semifinal; second-seeded Matheson beat fifth-seeded Max All- man of SLO 6-1, 6-1 Matheson won last year's 5-6 title; Mattera won it in 1987. In No. 1 doubles, second-seeded Marinkovic and Joe McDonough play USD's seventh-seeded team of Eric Toomey and Mark Farren in a semi- final match at 1 p.m. Stewart and Noriega were top-seeded but had to default because of Noriega's mjury. All three doubles division finals are at 2:30.

Dottin had three points, Randy Thompson two, Keith Colvin two and Kelvm Woods one. But USO Coach Hank Egan still felt his young team was not out of it. The Toreros shot much bet- ter 04 of 28) m the second half pulhng to within nine with 7:38 remammg, but the Gaels pulled away with a 9-2streak. Said Egan of the halftime atmosphere in USD's locker room. "The kids were a little disc~uraged. But I told them I didn t thmk we were playing th at badly We just weren't shooting well." St. Mary's has a way of doing that to opponents. The Gaels are third in the NCAA in scoring def,:,n, ( 58.2 points) field goal percentage defens~ (39 7%) and scoring margin (plus20.l). USD's 13 points at the half were the fewest of the season. The previous low was Wednes- day when the Toreros trailed St. Mary's, 32-16, at halftime. At 14,50 of the second half USD pulled to withm 34-24 on~ Woods layup after Bell blocked a Dan Curry shot. After a Danny Means basket, the score was 37-26, but USO missed shots on its next four posses- s10ns. Later, a 6-0 run featuring a Bell slam dunk and two free throws left USD trailing, 41-32. A 9-2 run by St. Mary's made it 50-34. . Bell finished with game highs m pomts 07), rebounds (10) and blocks (three). N O other To_rero had more than seven pomts.

compete a lot better here than we did up there," said USO coach Hank Egan, the imprint of seeing his team lose its fifth straight game still on his face. "The positive note is we com- peted. The negative note is it's a loss." USD (6-18) has lost 11 of 12 in the West Coast Athletic Conference. St. Mary's (22-3, 10-2) kept a share of the WCAC lead (with Pepperdine) de- spite the absence of two senior start- ers, 6-foot-7 forward Robert Haugen (strained knee ligament) and 5-9 sen- ior guard David Carter (flu). Al Lewis and James Dailey st ood out as the stand-ins. Lewis hit 5-of-9 "We didn't try to do anything fancy," said Gaels coach Lynn Nance. "We just tried to concentrate on defense. We don't try to waste guys on covering non-shooters." That was the entire USD team for one seven-minute scoreless stretch, which St. Mary's used to nurture a three-point lead into 17. After scor- ing a flurry of two field goals in 83 seconds - from 15:20 to 13:57 - the Toreros didn't score again until Bell hit two free throws at the 7·14 mark. Free throws, in fact, accounted for six of USD's 13 first-half points. "We just dug a big hole in the first half," Egan said. "We had a lot of shots go down and come back out. We make a couple of those baskets early, and they can't jump out to ere-

For the benefit of those who didn't see St. Mary's disassemble USO ear- lier this week, the teams ave a near instant replay last night in the USO Sports Center. St Mary's Gaels ball-hawked their way to a 15-point halftime lead and then let the laws of nature - The team with more speed, size and expe- rience will prevail - carry them to a 65-47 victory The one difference from Wednes- day's 70--45 blowout in St. Mary's McKeon Pavilion is that the Toreros made a run at the Gaels midway through the second half. Two Dondi 14 points, and Dailey had nine re- bounds. Dan Curry, the Gaels' 6-9 center, helped in both departments (13 points, eight rebounds). When you discuss St. fary s statis- tics, however, offensive totals are not the place to look. The Gaels' game is founded on unhinging the opposition's offense, which is why they're the na- tion's No. 3 team m scoring and field- goal defense. "They've got it all together," Egan said. "They don't make mistakes, so when you do, it's two points." The Gaels spent most of the first half transforming USD turnovers into breakaway baskets. Eight of the Toreros' 11 turnovers were in the first half. Their scoring rate wasn't much better, even when they were Bell free thr ed t M ry'

SAN DIEGO-Catcher Tim Mccarver used to teJI pitcher Bob Gibson that he was the luckiest man In baseball be- cause the other team never got any runs on the days he hap- pened to pitch Th~ same can be said of St. Marys men's basketball team. The other team always seems to shoot poorly, score few points and lose. Saturday night in front of 2,235 m the USO Sports Center t. Mary's beat cold-shooting Umversjty of Sao D111s0, 65-47. Wed~e day in Moraga, St. ary s defeated cold-shooting USD. 70-45. The victory kept St. Mary's ~22-3, 10-2) ma fir t place tie rn the West Coast Athletic Conference race with Pepperdine, a winner over Portland in Malibu. The Gaels, with two WCAC games re- mammg, control their own des- tiny because of the second I e breaker procedure (record again t opponents in descend- mg order of fm1sh) in the WCAC. USD fell to 6-18, 1-1 l with its SIXth con~ecullve Joss and remains last. After 12 minutes 45 seconds of a remarkable first half St Mary's held a 17-pomt lead.' · Amazingly, St. Mary's had JUSt 21 point.q. USD, which made Just two of 14 shots to that point, had four, The Toreros had only 13 at the half on thrcP-of-19 shoot- mg and trailed, 28-13.

Having con- tributed a 4-foot miss to four straight by USD at a time they could have cut their disadvantage to eight, Bell dunked nearly every shot from then on. "I thought Dondi played his best game in a long time," Egan said. Said Nance: "I'm just glad to get past Hank Egan. He's been around so long, and he always cooks up some- thing for you. I m not looking for- ward to seeing them m the future." Nance was tallung about seasons to come, but it could be much sooner - next month's WCAC tournament in San Francisco.

Managers- Continued from Page 1 she said. A 1985 update of the same study found that derailed women were often viewed differently than derailed men. The women were considered to have a poor image - labeled as "too whiney or too cutesy." Also, "derailed women compared to derailed men were criticized for having too narrow business expe- rience," said Rothman. Rothman acknowledged that becoming a successful manager re- quires a little luck and cautioned those who do become successful not to let it go to their heads. Rothman concluded that, "ever- ybody is a patchwork of strengths and weaknesses ... and there is no one best or only way to be suc- cessful in an organization. Rather it's if we are sensitive to the needs of others, open to listening to oth- ers, and willing to accept the feed- back, painful though it may be at some levels, we may be able to change and grow into our potential instead of getting derailed. It's re- ally the perception of other people that creates reality." The updates are held at the Manchester Conference Center. The one-hour seminars begin at 8 a.m. "Leadership: A Key to Organi- zational Effectiveness" will be presented by Dr. Dennis Briscoe, associate professor of management, next Friday.

Rothman said that the successful executives and derailers had many things in common: a good track re- cord, outgoing nature, loyalty to management, honesty, ambition and experience with subordinates. So why do managers fail? Rothman cited 10 "fatal flaws." •Decline in business perfor- mance. •In sensitivity to others, abrasiveness, having an in- timidating style. • Being cold, aloof or arrogant. delegate or build a team. • Being overly ambitious. • Poor staffing. • Inability to be strategic. • Inability to adapt to the boss. •Overdependence on an ad- vocate.

San Dl~o DaJJy Tr1UUCnpt t,,/f Wn~r "The number one factor that causes managers to fail is insen- sitivity," said Ai.soe1ate Professor Mariam Rothman of the Universi- t)' of San Diego business school. She poke Fri ay at the first of eight "Business Update Breakfast Seminars" designed to help local business executives and communi- ty leaders. The seminars will run through the spring semester. Durmg her discussion of "Why Managers Fail," Rothman cited a study conducted m the early 1980's by the Center for Creative Lead- ership in Greensboro, N.C., which analyzed the "savvy insights" of senior executives occupying the top 10-20 positions at Fortune 500 companies. The researchers found that in- formation about what makes an unsuccessful manager - dubbed derailed - proved as useful as what makes a successful one. The study ultimately focused on 21 derailed and 20 successful man- agers and, said Rothman, "the re- earch shows that the two groups were-remarkably alike."
