...USSA. (Translation: This guy drives me batty.) "Hopefully this has created something positive, not just with Bode but with the whole team." For years Miller has challenged USSA brass about coaching, training and conditioning methods, equipment and what he considers insufficient support for his ideas. "They are not totally compliant yet," he deadpans. Yet he is serious in his purpose. The coaches, he says, "are forcing athletes to train poorly for the sport. And I find that irritating."

DIED. FRED KOREMATSU, 86, Japanese American whose refusal to report to an internment center became a haunting symbol of civil rights repression during World War II; of a respiratory illness; in Larkspur, Calif. In May 1942, the Oakland, Calif., welder resisted pleas from compliant friends and declined to be sent to a camp.
