THANK YOU, FOR A REAL GOOD DEAL: LUCY.COM ON WITH SANEX TOUR

          Online retailer lucy.com has signed a deal through
     December 31, 2001, to become the North American Presenting
     Sponsor of the Sanex WTA Tour (see THE DAILY, 4/3).  While
     terms of the deal were not released, the agreement includes
     both cash and stock.  Under the deal, lucy.com receives net
     post and sideline signage at all 15 North American stops on
     the Sanex WTA Tour, as well as on-site promotional
     activities and player appearances.  Additionally, lucy.com
     plans to feature Tour players in a "style meets sport" event
     later this year.  The deal marks lucy.com's second major
     sponsorship in women's pro sports, as the company was an
     associate sponsor of the U.S. women's soccer team's Toys 'R'
     Us Victory Tour last year.  lucy.com becomes the first e-
     commerce partner of the Sanex WTA Tour.  IMG represents the
