RANGERS FIRE VALENTINE:
   Bobby Valentine was fired Thursday as manager of the Texas 
Rangers and replaced in the interim by dugout coach Toby Harrah. 
Valentine, in his eighth season, had the third-longest tenure in 
the majors behind Los Angeles' Tom Lasorda and Detroit's Sparky 
Anderson. The Rangers had lost nine of 15 games since June 8 to 
fall from a first-place tie with Minnesota.
    
STOCKTON, KIEFER LEAD SENIOR:
   Dave Stockton and Jack Kiefer share the U.S. Senior Open lead 
after matching 4-under-par 67s Thursday at Saucon Valley Country 
Club in Bethlehem, Pa. Kiefer hit every fairway and missed just 
one green. Stockton missed six fairways and six greens but saved 
par five times using 26 putts. Defending champion Jack Nicklaus 
posted a 70 and Lee Trevino finished at 73.
    
TRACK REMATCH DELAYED:
   The anticipated rematch between the USA's Mary Slaney and South 
African Zola Budd Pieterse, rivals since their famous collision in 
the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, will have to wait a little longer. 
Slaney and Pieterse were supposed to meet Friday in a 2,000-meter 
race at a track and field meet in London. But Slaney, suffering 
from a virus, withdrew from the race Thursday.
    
BONTEMPI WINS TOUR'S 5TH STAGE:
   Near-record speed and a bold move by Italy's Guido Bontempi 3 
miles from the finish line won him the fifth stage of the Tour de 
France Thursday. Canadian cyclist Steve Bauer moved up 10 spots to 
third place, 3 minutes, 11 seconds behind leader Pascal Lino. 
Three-time winner Greg LeMond gained on 1991 winner Miguel 
Indurain, although he dropped from 12th to 14th place.
