S SPORTS SPORTS SPORTS SPORTS SPORTS SPORTS SPORTS SPORT Lewis shows ' em all The Summer Olympics were a time for the stars to shine. One of those stars was the incredible Carl Lewis who won a gold medal in all of the events in which he competed — the 100 yard dash, the 200 meters, the four 100 meter relay and the long jump. The fact that the commu- nist countries boycotted the Olym- pics did not bother this young speed demon. He simply left his competi- tors in the dust as the crowd cheered him on to victory. Even though the Soviets were not there, more ath- letes than ever before were present, and Carl Lewis proved to them all that he was a competitor to be reck- oned with. After the closing ceremonies of the Olympics, Lewis traded in his spikes and athletic glory for a script and au- ditions for acting roles, since his future plans included breaking into the world of show business. Mary Lou becomes U.S.A. ' s sweetheart The summer Olympics not only brought the U.S. a total of 174 medals (83 gold, 61 silver, and 30 bronze), it brought all the young girls in America someone t6 look up to. That someone was the spunky little gymnast, Mary Lou Retton. She won the all-round gold medal, led the gymnastic team to a silver medal, won bronze medals for the floor excer- cise and the uneven parallel bars, and finally, took a silver medal for the vault. But what made her a household name was her captivat- ing smile and her vibrant personal- ity. With her expatriate Rumanian coach, Bela Karolyi, she was ac- claimed to be the next Nadia Co- maneci, whom Bela had previously coached. This not-so-typical teen- ager gave up certain aspects of her social life to become one of the leading female gymnasts in the world, but in her opinion, It was worth it. win some, lose some As usual, the baseball scene was an exciting one — a season in which every team exper- ienced either the joy of victo- ry or the agony of defeat. The World Series in 1984 saw the dynamic Detroit Tigers beat the San Diego Padres four games to one. The Cubs came close to getting into the series, putting thousands of Cubs forever fans on the edge of their seats, but the Padres came out on top. In the Ameri- can League, the Royals lost their series hope in the playoffs to the Tigers. Above Kirk Gib- son of Detroit jumps for joy after scoring in game five against the Padres.
