As a precaution, American track-and-field athletes at the 2004 Athens Olympics might be discouraged from wearing red, white and blue or anything with "USA" when they are not competing in Greece.

Jill Geer, USA Track & Field spokeswoman, said that "off-track uniform issues are governed by the U.S. Olympic Committee."

Williams said track officials have suggested ways to lower the profile of American athletes around Athens.

"They said it would be good if we low-keyed it," he said.
