The autopsy found that Cash, 51, had 0.18 percent alcohol in his blood when he died nearly twice the 0.10 percent level considered legally intoxicated, Lasater said.

The sheriff said Cash apparently fell while trying to climb aboard his 33-foot cabin cruiser that was moored at the dock. Friends and acquaintances said the hard-drinking Cash had been in a good mood before leaving a bar on the isolated island the night he died. Cash, his wife, Dorothy, and a friend, Bernard LaBlance, had gone to the island that day, LaBlance said. "He-was looking forward to spending his summers here (in Charlevoix) and his winters in Florida," LaBlance said. Cash, a native of Justiceburg, Texas, played for the Chicago White Sox in 1958-59 before joining the Tigers in 1960.

He played for Detroit until 1974 and had a lifetime .271 major league batting average. Cash led the Tigers with a .385 batting average in the team's 1968 World Series victory over the St. Louis Cardinals.

CINN DETROIT K.C. S.D. DENVER RAIDERS MINN WASH NY JETS SEATTLE LA RAMS CHICAGO DOOI, pseudonym for a professional handtcapper, appears in these newspapers daily. Bold face indicates home team. By MARY SHUSTACK Staff Writer NEW YORK Two-time defending champion Orlando Pizzolato of Italy looks forward to defending his New York City Marathon title Sunday but knows he will be battling favorite Rob de Castella of Australia, this year's Boston Marathon champ.

"It depends on how fast he (de Castella) runs," said Pizzolato, 28, in a news conference at the Sheraton Centre Wednesday. "If he runs a 2:09, 1 will be able to stay with him. If he runs a world record, I can't keep up." To win the Boston Marathon in April, de Castella ran a 2:07.51, the fastest clocking so far this year. Pizzolato was third in 2:11.43. But Pizzolato's success in the New York race has been impressive.

In 1982, he did not finish but the next year came in 27th. Battling extreme humidity and heat in 1984, he won by 43 seconds in 2:14.53. Last year he won in 2:11.34, over taking runner-up Ahmed Salah by 55 seconds. His personal best is a 2:10.23, set in the 1985 World Cup at Hiroshima. This year, his 2:10.57 at the European championships earned him a silver medal.

Pizzolato certainly has experience on the New York course. "The first half is very fast but usually you are very emotional about the crowd, about the beginning," he said. "It is a very special race in New York." Pizzolato will also have a chance to battle Gianni Poli. Pizzolato lost the Italian national record to countryman Poli who ran a 2:09.57 in the Chicago Marathon in 1985. "I won New York and he said it (the record) was revenge," Pizzolato said.
