THE DOMINGO EFFECT: SPANISH TENOR EYES UNITED INVESTMENT

          Spanish tenor Placido Domingo "has expressed an
     interest in investing" in DC United, and "is the biggest
     name to surface since Washington Soccer put its operating
     rights on the market early this year," according to sources
     of Steven Goff of the WASHINGTON POST.  Washington Soccer is
     selling their rights to the United for an "estimated" $25M,
     and Domingo "wants to join other prospective investors" to
     operate the team.  Also interested in the team's rights is
     VA-based environmental services firm World Resources Co.
     President Peter Halpin.  Washington Soccer consists of Soros
     Fund Management and British sports marketing company
     Octagon.  Meanwhile, RFK GM Jim Dalrymple said that police
     "will have a greater presence" in the stadium for Saturday's
     Revolution-United game (WASHINGTON POST, 4/22).
