16 Monday, July 31, 1972 Philadelphia Inquirer Eagles' Bailey Is Happy to Be Back After Operation The metal was with the use of a procedure that left hole through which dress rubberized jacket, shorts and basketball sneakers. Bailey's delayed start is the consequence of a weak, infected knee joint. "I used to think it'd be nice to sit around out there and miss practices," he said. "Boy, it's bad. People don't know what mental anguish you go through just standing out there." Bailey underwent surgery for the removal of a cartilage in his left knee last season following the 13th game.

During the Eagle rookie camp in May, an examination revealed a piece of metal, possibly a staple, floating around in the joint. much my stupidity," the runner admitted. "I went to an emergency unit in Tallahassee (Bailey's home town) and it was scrubbed and I was given an antibiotic. They told me to leave it open." A year ago, Bailey seriously considered dropping out of pro football but was sweet-talked into staying. "I was just homesick," he recalled.

"I didn't know anybody. And I had just gotten married, June 27. I didn't have a car but I thought the Eagles would pay my way home." Bailey stayed, emerged as the third-best Eagle runner in exhibition games and made the 40 man roster as a backup fullback and -bomb-squad member. It will be at least two more weeks before Bailey is allowed to enter contact work. Meanwhile, by standing still, he has lost ground.

Ahead of him at the moment are five other fullbacks in what has become a wild scramble for the starting position. NFC TEAMS lead the AFC in inter-conference play by 56-49-4 in two exhibition seasons and 50-27-3 in two regular seasons. From 1967-69, under the NFL-AFL format, the NFL piled up a 42-29-1 advantage in preseason play Tom Woo- deshick, a tireless worker in the drive to curb drug use conceded that some Eagles were popping amphetimines or uppers a few years ago. It's policed so heavy on this team that nobody is going to use them and pop them. In the last three years, I haven't seen any," Woody said.

"Our society has become so drug-conscious over the last few years that prevention has become part of an NFL program. The biggest area to curb drug abuse is starting with kids. For them to see their idols taking drags, that would be a setback." The rap by the New York Jets against tight end Pete Lam-mons was that he was losing speed.

Two maddening weeks finally end today when Tom Bailey gets to check out his pads. While his Eagle teammates were pushed through two-a-day workouts, the promising, second-year fullback practiced as a loner in feathery Ickx Wins 2d Prix in Germany NURBURGRING, Germany (UPI). Jacky Ickx of Belgium led from start to finish Sunday in his 12-cylhder Ferrari to win the 34th German Grand Prix, the eighth Formula One race counting toward the world driver's championship. The 27-year-old, baby-faced Belgian, scoring hi? second German Grand Prix victory since his 1969 win, covered the 198.8 miles in 1:42:12.3 hours for an average speed of 116.6 MPH. Switzerland's Clay Regaz-zoni made it a sweep for the flame red Ferraris as he finished second in 1:43:00.6 hours.

Sweden's Ronnie Peterson in an STP March was third in 1:43:19.0. Howden Ganley of New Zealand was fourth in a BRM and Brian Redman of England was fifth in a McLaren-Ford. ICKX, giving Ferrari its first victory after 14 Grand Prix races, was never chal-over the 14.2-mile twisting over the 14.2 mile twisting Nurburgring circuit. He improved the ip record on almost every round and finally set the mark at 7:13.6 minutes at an averege speed of 117.74 MPH. The battle for second place thrilled 250,000 fans.

Brazil's Emerson Fittipaldi held second in his Lotus Ford until the end of the 10th lap when his engine caught fire. The 25-year-old Brazilian was able to jump out in time, and onrushing firemen extinguished the flames and smoke immediately. Jackie Stewart of Scotland, defending champion, was also hit by bad luck. Challenging Regazzoni for second in his Tyrrell Ford at the start of the final lap, he brushed the Swiss car, lost a vheel and had to retire with only 12.4 miles to go. FITTIPALDI retained his lead in the world championship standings with 43 points.

Stewart is still secord with 27 points. Ickx moved into third with 25 points, leaving the i championship open for the four remaining races in Austria, Italy, Canada and the United States.

"They were trying to get me to slow down," McCluskey said. "But when I tried it, the car didn't feel as comfortable. We set the chassis up to run fast and when I backed off, it began to push in the corners. So I picked it up again." "I'd have liked to have shook my first at him when he wouldn't slow down with a lead as big as he had," Nelson said with a laugh.

"But when he came in on his next pit stop and explained it to he, I went along with him. Everything's all forgiven now anyway."

NATIONAL BANK I An We're not saying- an Inquirer route is the road to riches. But we'll say this: As an Inquirer carrier, you" earn maybe as much as $1000 a year. Ask any Inquirer carrier. That's enough money to buy almost anything you want. With enough left over to sock away for college.

All that's required of you 'is a half hour a day before school for delivery. And a couple hours each month for collection. And get this. Because The Inquirer is a morning paper, you'll have your afternoons free to enjoy spoils and things. If you're between 12 and i6 years of age, why not give us a call to explore the possibilities of becoming an Inquirer carrier.
