HERNDON, Va. (AP)?After two
days of labor talks, owners and players
are no closer to an agreement
than they were months ago.
A 2 1/2-hour joint session was
mainly a question-and-answer conference
dealing with management's
new proposal for a taxation plan.
The owners made a taxation offer I
Thursday, which calls for teams with
payrolls above the league average to
pay a progressive tax. The union re- ;
jected the monetary figures of the *
proposal. .j
Under the proposed tax plan, a 1
surcharge would be levied on any
team with a payroll above the league ?
average, which was $36 million last
season including benefits. Each |
$250,000 or $500,000 jump in payroll
would increase the tax rate, and |
there would be no pre-set top rate.

Dallas Cowboys $10,000 for violating
the league's policy on reporting
injuries.
According to the league, the defending
Super Bowl champions failed
to follow proper procedures last Friday
after quarterback Troy Aikman
ir\jured his right thumb during practice.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said
the injury was too minor to report
and said the team will appeal the
fine.
NHL
BOSTON (AP) ? Hope replaced
seven weeks of strife as negotiators
in the NHL labor dispute wrapped
up two days of "very constructive dialogue."
Much like the Major League Baseball
strike, the dispute centers on the
onwers' demand for a payroll tax.
Therefore, teams spending more on
salaries than the average of all teams
would be taxed on the excess. Players
interpret that as a form of a salary
cap, which they oppose.
Today is the 50th day of the lockout.
The sides meet again today.

The University of South Carolina
swim teams were defeated at home in
a dual meet against Louisiana State
University on Saturday afternoon.
The Lady Gamecocks held the lead
until the last event, when they were
passed by LSU in the 400-meter relay.
"Our women's team is really strong
this year," senior Alison Klinakis said.
"There is a lot of good senior leadership
as well as talent from the underclassmen."
Jay Telford of USC won the 1000yard
freestyle and the 500-yard freestyle.
Telford, a sophomore, won over LSU last
year as well.
"I wasn't sure that I would win again,
but I was sure that it would be a close
race," Telford said.
"Most of our team are underclassmen
who haven't had that much experience
yet," senior co-captain Mark Dicus
said. "This has been one of our best
meets."
Despite the overall score of 266-216,
the USC swimmers gave LSU tough
