One has to do with a proposed move by the major league player representatives to prohibit the playing of games in weather extremes and was sent via the usual Associated Press channels. The other was a mailed release concerning the great food value, unique taste and just general delight of an "Astrodog" or, in other words, what passes for a hot dog in the Astrodome. However, after a careful weighing of all factors, it just might be determined that the story about the Astrodog is, in reality, more important. Why, even the recipe for this gourmet's delight is a deep, dark secret and the sau- SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS OLD COLONY RESTAURANT Pierre Lamarche and Bobby Rogers.

Trie story then went into more detail about how those soccer players, most of whom have imported from foreign lands, are rapidly becoming true Astrodog fans and are hoping to somehow make off with the secret recipe and carry it back to their native land. On that other deal, concerning a proposed move by the major league players relative to weather conditions, I just have to believe those folks could get quicker results if they attempted to ship someone to the moon via Pony Express.

hottest summer so long as the fans will buy tickets to see the activity. And, being hired hands although highly-publicized and highly-paid at that the players will continue to play when the owners schedule the contests and the ump hollers "Play Ball." Or, if they decide otherwise, then get into another profession. Personally, I can't work up too much sympathy for the players and have absolutely none for the owners who are in the business for just one financial reason. Or, for that matter, any sympathy for the fan who would choose some three hours of freezing to that much warmth just to be a part of the National Pastime. Tourney Here with the finals at River Hills on Sunday.

This tournament, put on by the Southern Lawn Tennis Association, has brought some 150 out-of-towners to Jackson for practically a week's stay. And, while here, they are not only enjoying the hospitality of our town but also getting to enjoy the hospitality and use of the tremendous net facilities at River Hills. It is indeed one of the finest clubs of its kind in the South or, the nation, for that matterand the participants here will be among the first to declare that fact. This is the second straight year for the tournament to be held here and don't be at all surprised if it comes back many, many times in the future.

Seems as though Hamilton and his fellow Yanks had to take the field against the Minnesota Twins with the temperature just 32 degrees at the start of the game and at a chiller 29 before the final out was made. Twin owner Calvin Griffith Immediately gave his own sentiments, that which will surely be echoed around the majors. He said: "Club owners would be fools if we ever consented to anything like that." He is so right, of course.

The owners will continue to both schedule and play the games in the coldest spring and Track Meet, Net Last scheduled event on the spring sports calendar, with the exception of the state prep playoffs in baseball which are now in full swing, is that Big Eight Conference track meet carded at Memorial Stadium today. This meet brings together the cream of the conference's thinclads and, coming as it does one week after the State Meet, the athletes are that much more advanced. In most cases, for an example, the records in the Big Eight are just a mite better than those set in the state deal and certainly you can expect some real hot competition both for team and individual honors. The Murrah Mustangs, for a fact, must again be favored but a number of other schools located around the state would like nothing to be the one which pulls the trophy-grabbing rug out from the fleet feet of the Ponies. Also on the local scene is the annual Southern Seniors tennis tournament, to be climaxed Floyd Little Signs With Denver Qui) DENVER, Colo.
