Jon Kitna, the Cincinnati Bengals' quarterback fined by the NFL last year for wearing a baseball-style cap embroidered with a simple, white cross (NCR, Jan. 16) won't have to pay, the football league has announced. Kitna was fined $5,000 for wearing unauthorized headgear too close to game time during a television interview in December.

A local religious goods shop sold several thousand similar caps at $5 a piece over the next couple of weeks. The NFL did not say why the fine was rescinded.
