That's the best way to describe former Newark High and Duke University athlete Brandy Davis, who put in two years as an outfielder with the Pittsburgh Pirates, in 1952-53, and is still in pro baseball, going strong at 68. A one-time national supervisor of hands in retirement scouts and a national crosschecker first Delaware i From wire reports People WASHINGTON Quietly, Art Monk went about becoming one ot the best wide receivers in Nf his with the Phillies and later with the Chicago Cubs Davis has never been in want of a job in pro ball due in part to the connections he developed with prominent baseball i.i., 7 Matt Zabitka tory. Just as quietly, he retired on Tuesday, more than a year after catching his final pass, i Monk, who failed to sign with an NFL team last season, played 14 seasons with the Washington Redskins, and one each with the New York Jets in 1994 and the Eagles in 1995. i "I had a good career, a great time and it's time to move on and do other things," the 39-year-old re people over the past MELCONIAN MOVES TO MINORS: In late May, Jim Riley, veteran manager of the Brandywine team in the Delaware Semi-Pro Baseball League, was singing high praises for his 22-year-old, 5-foot-10 catcher Alex Melconian, a graduate of Conestoga High.

Riley described Melconian as the best-looking catcher he had seen come out of the league in 35 years. With the June major league free agent draft coming up, Riley felt Brandywine wouldn't be able to hold on to the star catcher, a May 19 graduate of Seton Hall University where he majored in social and behavioral science. He was right. Melconian was a 22nd-round pick by the Florida Marlins in the draft. He left June 8 for a rookie league in Melbourne; and on June 15 was shipped to Utica' of the New York-Pennsylvania WOCKENFUSS BACK IN After leading the Albany County, N.Y, Diamond Dogs to the championship of the Northeast Independent League last summer in his first season as manager.

During his checkered pro baseball career, which included stints as a player, coach, manager, scout, crosschecker, and now special assignments, Davis has been affiliated with nine major league teams Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, Houston, the Phillies, Chicago Cubs, New York Yankees, Montreal, Detroit, Arizona.

Davis has been in pro baseball since 1951 when, at the the age of 23, he was signed by Branch Rickey for the Pittsburgh Pirates organization. Four years earlier (in '47) Rickey broke the color line in the majors with Jackie Robinson surfacing at first base for the 1947 Brooklyn Dodgers. BASILE'S FOR REAL IN HOCKEY: Carrie Basile of Camden, former athlete at Caesar Rodney High (tennis, soccer, field hockey), made an impact last fall in her first year of collegiate field hockey at Ohio University in Athens. At the school's annual field hockey banquet June 5, she was named Most Improved Player and awarded a plaque and a varsity letter. She's now in her first summer as a lifeguard at Rehoboth Beach.

Her father, Pete Basile, former head wrestling coach at Caesar Rodney and Delaware State University, who also served two years as an assistant mat coach at Salisbury State University, is out of coaching. He's assistant principal at Brown Elementary School in Camden. ceiver said. "I felt like I could have Art Monk performed last year, it was just the opportunities weren't there. Things just weren't the same.

Monk, who set several NFL records that have since been broken, still has one catching at least four decades. Late last week, he blew in to Delaware for a brief respite from his special assignment for the Arizona Diamondbacks, an expansion club that debuts in the majors next year. "I've been following the eight teams in the Class A Carolina League of which the Blue Rocks are members since the season opened," he said. "I have to make a report on every player in the entire league. I have to see each team play at least seven consecutive games in order to get a good line on the pitchers in rotation.

"And when players graduate to another league and replacements are brought in, I have to go back and report on the new guys. I've seen the Blue Rocks play at least 25 times this season. "One of the beauties about working the Carolina League is that two of the teams, Wilmington and Frederick, are within a short commute of my Newark one pass in 183 consecutive games. His last reception came on Dec. 12, 1995 a 36-yarder from Rodney Peete in a 20-14 loss to the Chicago Bears at Soldier The News JoumalBOB HERBERT Newark's Brandy Davis, standing in front of a pair of his all-star bats, is still going strong after more than 40 years in baseball.

home, compared to Kinston and Durham." Davis said that on Nov. 18 Arizona and the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, expansion clubs that begin play next season, will be participating in a draft of current major league players and minor leaguers who've played three years or longer. "Buck Showalter former manager of the Yankees has been manager of Arizona since '95, but he still doesn't have a team," Davis said. A 1989 Delaware Sports Hall of Fame inductee, Davis said the only work he does now is on the pro level, special assignments. "I don't scout amateur, high school or college teams," he said.

Last year, he was on special assign Field. The Oakland Raiders placed quarterback Jeff Hosteller on waivers, a move that had been expected since the team signed free agent Jeff George to a long- term contract in February.
