     BEITOSTOLEN, Norway (AP) -- Bjorn Dahlie anchored Norway to a 3.6-second victory over Finland Sunday in a 40-kilometer World Cup cross-country ski relay.

     Dahlie, who earned a record 38th individual victory in a 10K Saturday, posted the third fastest time. Teammate Erling Jevne, who skied the third leg, had the fastest time of the day.
     Norway showed great depth, as its B and C teams finished third and fourth, ahead of such powers as Russia (seventh), Sweden (eighth) and Italy (ninth).
