NO MORE HOLDING BACK THE YEARS: USOC TO EXTEND TERM LIMITS?

          The USOC Board of Directors will vote on a proposal at
     its October meeting which would allow USOC presidents to run
     for two fully elected terms, according to Mike Spence of the
     Colorado Springs GAZETTE-TELEGRAPH.  The measure would waive
     term limits for all other USOC officers.  If it passes, Bill
     Hybl would be the first USOC President to run for re-
     election since Kenneth Wilson, who served as President from
     '53-65 (CO Springs GAZETTE-TELEGRAPH, 7/1).
