09i6 Th Reporter, Thuwdoy, Nov. 1981 get the mea ge Carried Away and will continue to bother him until the fans start coming to County Stadium as they did in the past, often out of blind loyalty. That loyalty will have to rekindled, so Selig, who has never missed a chance to turn a buck in the past, has done so now to show the fans that he has received their message and understands their feelings. He'll take a financial loss because he knows how hard the Brewers worked to earn the support and loyalty of those fans who felt slightest by the strike. For Selig knows that losing some revenue is one thing; losing those fans is quite another.

News item: It now costs $1.40 to buy a beer at Milwaukee County Stadium. That's right, folks, if you want to watch the Packers almost blow a game to the New York Giants or the Brewers lose a chance to win a playoff with the Yankees, it will now cost you more to drown your sorrows. Packer fans, who have had enough troubles in recent years, found out they had more last Sunday when they arrived at County Stadium to discover that 12 ounces of the product that made Milwaukee famous now costs the grand sum of $1.40, which is IS cents more than the former price. Whatever happened to "10 Cent Beer Night?" Yes, in Milwaukee, where beer has always been revered, you now must pay Wisconsin Sportservice which handles concessions for all County Stadium events, 14 times what a dime beer used to cost if you want to quench your thirst. And, you have to drink it out of a cup, too.

No glasses allowed in these outdoor saloons. Too dangerous. This price increase came about, a spokesman for the concessionaire said, because of a 17 percent increase in the price of beer. It also brought forth an interesting response from one Richard Niklewicz a good burgher of Milwaukee and a member of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors. Niklewicz took note of the fact that the Brewers, who have a contract with Wisconsin Sportservice to handle concessions at all County Stadium events, had recently urged the county to avoid increasing its parking lot fees.

And now this. So, Niklewicz resurrected an old idea that might make Oliver E. Kuechle, the former sports editor of the Milwaukee Journal, roll over in his grave and belch. For it was Kuechle, in the early years of the Braves' reign in Milwaukee, who used his column in the Journal to eradicate the practice of fans carrying their own beer into the Stadium. Kuechle, much to the chagrin of the Milwaukee fans, was successful in his campaign to ban carry-ins, and I always found this rather ironic since Oliver E.

was known to enjoy a taste of the brew. Niklewicz and his fellow supervisors have suggested that perhaps the fans should be allowed to renew the practice of bringing their own spirits to the ballpark. "If the Brewers want to raise prices, fine," Niklewicz said. "This will just inject a little competition." The Brewers, naturally, don't favor the idea, as well they shouldn't. At times, they have had enough trouble controlling their fans without these fans being able to supply themselves with liquid encouragement.

But, really, $1.40 for a cup of beer? That's a bit much. Will you get a discount when there is too much foam? What if someone spills the beer before it is passed to you? While the price of beer is outrageous, perhaps it will have a sobering effect on the consumers. Maybe, like the fans last summer, they will boycott this raise in prices. Of course, if you believe that you also must believe that Jim Finks can turn around the Bears, that Bart Starr can win at Green Bay and that George Steinbrenner is loved by his employees. NEWS ITEM: "BUDGET" BCD SELIG, America's favorite automobile salesman, announces that the Milwaukee Brewers won't raise their ticket prices in 1982.

Ah yes, the pecuniarious one has gotten the message that the Brewer fans sent his way last sum-, mer. So, though it will hurt him where he least enjoys being hurt in his pocketbook Selig came to the inevitable decision the other day. Not raising ticket prices to watch his Brewers perform is one of the wiser and better decisions Selig has made in recent years. Bud realizes what the baseball strike did to his andom last summer. What it did, in short, was to turn off many people.

Which, when you consider the makeup and the conservative nature of the residents of our fair state, is entirely understandable. It has long been held as an article of faith that Wisconsin's sports fans cannot be slighted. Oh sure, they will put up with repeated mediocrity, as they have long demonstrated by their affection for the Packers, Badgers and even the Brewers in their early days as long as you don't take away their tail-gate parties and beer drinking which help them forget just how bad the teams they support might be. But, even these most understanding and undemanding of fans can be pushed so far. This summer, baseball went too far, and the Brewers and Selig bore the brunt of the anger and frustration of the fans of this state.

What the fans did was this: They, in effect, boycotted the Brewers in the "second season," and they carried this campaign of indifference into the playoffs when, much to Selig's chagrin, his stadium was half-filled for games with the New York Yankees which in normal times would have attracted capacity crowds. The Brewers failed to retain their fan appeal in baseball's "second season" for two reasons, it seems: 1. Milwaukee fans are not as tradition bound as those in such baseball strongholds as New York, Detroit and Chicago. 2. While fans in other cities might have adopted a "forgive-and-forget" attitude, Milwaukeeans, burned once when the Braves fled the city which had supported them with record crowds, were not so willing to grant absolution to the sins of baseball.

Many fans who had flocked to County Stadium in the past decided to no longer reach in their pockets and support the guys who helped ruin their summer. Or, at the least, alter some of their leisure-time activities. They will probably be back next season, but in the meantime they have given Selig and his associates reason to pause. You can bet that the Brewers will mount perhaps their greatest merchandizing offensive this winter as they try to reclaim the fans they lost last summer. Selig's decision not to raise ticket prices is the first step in that direction.

As he says, "It's one way of telling our fans we really do care about them. What happened last summer was a telling blow to Selig and the Brewers, who had sold more than 1 million tickets before the season and felt assured of an attendance of 2 miillion or more. But, Milwaukee lost 31 prime dates through the strike and wound up with an attendance of 878,432, which was almost 1,000,000 below the 1,857,408 the team drew in 1980. Selig is known as a fuss Bud-get, and you can bet the decline in attendance has been bothering him Rademann makes 2nd unit Cards Hanked on Valley team Bucks top Nets for 4th victory -1 c2 i i over the top is very difficult," said Dave Wohl, Bucks assistant coach. "Everytime they got close, we tightened up on them defensively." The Nets lost any chance of taking the lead when they became mired in foul trouble.

Milwaukee's final 15 points came on free throws except for a single basket by Bridgeman, who finished with 16 points. First round draft choice Albert King, who played just seven minutes coming off a knee rehabilitation managed 10 points for the Nets, including two baskets and a three-point field goal in the final two minutes. For the Bucks, first-round draft choice Alton Lister came off the bench to score six points and grab five rebounds while blocking three shots. "It really felt good to be in there at an important time of the game," the 6-foot-ll Lister said. "I'm getting some confidence and some experience in different situations, and being in there at the end was a real confidence booster."

Johnson, Milwaukee zone defense 3. New Jersey zone defense. By RUTH BON APACE EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) Even without star forward Marques Johnson and shooting guard Brian Winters, the Milwaukee Bucks managed to romp over the New Jersey Nets 100-88 Wednesday night. Center Bob Lanier, hampered by recurring knee problems, scored a game-high 20 points in the National Basketball Association contest, but he wasn't satisfied with his squad's performance.

i "We were out of sync tonight," Lanier said. "We should be undefeated right now. We have not been playing the kind of game we should be playing. "It's a confidence factor. We should feel that each time we step out on the floor that we can blow people away.

That hasn't happened yet." Johnson, embroiled in a contract dispute, has not reported to the club, which is 4-2 so far this season. Winters had been producing more than 19 points per game until he suffered a groin pull Tuesday. The injury forced the Bucks to start Junior Bridgeman, widely regarded as the best sixth man in the NBA. The Nets (1-6), with injuries and inexperience difficulties of their own, were tied 45-45 at halftime. After falling behind in an ensuing 16-5 Milwaukee rally, the Nets managed to pull within 81-80 in the fourth quarter.

Darwin Cook threw away an opportunity to tie the game by missing one of two free throws. "You can score eight or 10 points and catch up, but to go Stengel. Martin, who is shown call with an umpire, turned the A's into a championship team Billy Martin, left, combative manager of the Oakland A's, has been named Associated Press American League Manager of the Year for a fourth time, tying the league record set by the By TOM KOHL Assistant Sports Editor For the first time since 1964, Fond du Lac is out in the cold. The Cardinals, who used to dominate these post-season productions, failed to land a player on the Fox River Valley Conference all-conference football team, announced today by the coaches. Senior tailback Rick Rademann did gain a berth on the second team i the only Cardinal so honored.

Prior to this season, Fond du Lac hadn't been shut out on the first team since 1964 when the Cardinals finished winless in eight games. This year's team dropped its first six games, but won its last three all in the conference and finished in a three-way tie with Green Bay East and Sheboygan South for fourth place at 3-4. In contrast, third-place Green Bay Preble the Hornets wound up 4-3 landed the most spots on the first team eight. Conference champion Green Bay West (6-1), which claimed four spots, monopolized individual honors. Rademann (6-1, 195), who gained nine points in the voting, was switched from fullback to tailback this season.

He finished second to Manitowoc's Matt Pekarske in conference rushing with 533 yards in 141 attempts, a 3.8 average. 1 Pekarske, a slippery 5-7, 150-pound senior, led with 762 yards in 153 attempts, a 5.0 average. He is the only unanimous selection on the first team with 14 points, but placed second to West quarterback Keith Nelsen, 11-10. in Back of the Year balloting. Nelsen, a 6-1, 181-pound completed 81 of 133 passes, a percentage of .609, for 953 yards and six touchdowns.

He was West's main man as the Wildcats won the undisputed title. Nelsen's favorite target, 6-4, 180-pound senior end Todd Kornely, gained Offensive Lineman of the Year honors. Kornely grabbed 34 passes for 392 yards, a 11.5 average. West's veteran mentor Mike Miller was a unanimous selection for Coach of the Year. Joining Nelsen and Pekarske in the first team backfield are a pair of power runners, 5-10, 205-pound senior Pete Borremans Rodgers runnerup in voting Martin top skipper of Sheboygan North and 6-1, 180-pound senior John Effland of Preble.

Ryskoski and Effland tied in the voting for Defensive Back of the Year with five points each, while Southwest's Joel Gmack was picked the punter and Green Bay East's Mike Hess the place-kicker on the team.

Liter and 205-pound center Steve Schinker help open holes for halfback John Ronca, who has rushed for 1,600 yards and an 8.5 per carry average, and fullback Jerry Swita, who has 900 yards rushing. Ronca, a first team all-state player last year, is a 6-1, 195-pounder with 4.6 second speed at 40 yards. Mosinee quarterback Chuck Allen has thrown only 24 passes, but has completed 11, seven of them for touchdowns.

The Indians have given up 38 points and have shut out seven opponents. "This is one of my three or four best teams, no doubt about it," said Coach Bob Coy, who has a 152-20 record in 18 years at Mosinee. "With only four kids playing two ways, we've got some depth.

Scott Reinert and Brent Schneider both have rushed for more than 1,000 yards, and Reinert has led the Capitol Conference in scoring the last two seasons. The Norskies don't pass much, but junior Todd Oberg has completed 65 per cent of bis attempts. De Forest has outscored opponents 456-70.

"We thought we would really have to control the football to have a good season, but the defense has contributed more By HAL BOCK AP Sports Writer Combative Billy Martin, who turned the sadsack Oakland A's into a championship team, was named American League Manager of the Year by The Associated Press today for a fourth time, tying the league record set by the legendary Casey Stengel. It was the second straight AP award for Martin, who was Stengel's prize pupil in the days when Casey managed the New York Yankees. He also was named Manager of the Year in 1974 when he led the Texas Rangers to a surprising second-place finish in the AL West and again in 1976 when he piloted the Yankees to their first pennant in 12 years. Stengel won the award in 1949, 1952, 1953 and 1956. Martin was an easy winner this time, receiving 386 votes from a nationwide panel of sports writers and broadcasters.

Bob Rodgers of the Milwaukee Brewers was second with 62 votes and Sparky Anderson of the Detroit Tigers finished third with 31. Ferragamo to Billy at work Tommy Lasorda of the Los Angeles Dodgers was selected National oleague Manager of the Year by The AP earlier this week. Martin guided the young A's to the West Division title, gaining an automaic playoff berth by leading the division when the strike began and then eliminating Kansas City in the first round of the playoffs. Oakland was beaten by the Yankees in the league championship series. The A's opened the season with a rush, winning their first 11 games to establish a record for start-of-season success.

Oakland's record after 18 games was a remarkable 17-1 with the team giving a textbook demonstration of "Billyball," a razzle-dazzle brand of baseball built around speed, guile and making things happen. The term is derived, not surprisingly, directly from the manager whose teams have epitomized that approach to the game. Martin took over the Oakland job just before spring training in 1980, inheriting a disorganiz- ed, despirited team which critics derisively termed "The stay in CFL live up to expectations. He lasted a little more than half the 1981 season as the team's starting quarterback before being benched. After that, the Alouettes put Ferragamo on the taxi squad and he didn't even make the last two road trips.

Nelson Skalbania's high-priced team finished the season with a dismal 3-13 record, although they qualified for the CFL playoffs before losing 16-14 to Ottawa in the Eastern Conference semifinals last Sunday. "As far as I'm concerned, I have an obligation to fulfill mv contract and I'll be going back to Montreal next year," the quarterback said. Ferragamo said it was a matter of pcide on his part to "go back artd turn things around and make that team a winner." legendary Casey here arguing a former sad-sack to earn the honor. De Forest gets 2nd Triple A's." The suggestion was that this team of no-names might be better suited to playing in the minors than the majors. But Martin viewed them differently.

He saw in his young team raw talent that needed only to be refined in order to flourish. He soon had the A's believing in themselves and the team soared, jumping from a seventh-place finish in 1979 to second in 1980. Just as significant was the impfovement in attendance from a paltry 306,763 to 842,259. The club was sold in mid-season and Martin was given total authority for the baseball operation, on the field and off. That's something Billy, had never enjoyed before and he made it pay off with Oakland's first division title since 1975.

Attendance, even in a strike-shortened season, surged to 1,304,054. Actually, when he came to the A's, Martin did not have much choice in the matter. He had been fired by the Yankees following a celebrated hotel lobby fight with a mar- shmallow salesman and other teams weren't anxious to offer him a job. Oakland took a chance and the results were almost immediate. Dickey GREEN BAY.

Wis. (AP) Quarterback Lynn Dickey of the Green Bay Packers was listed Wednesday as "probable" to be able to play in Sunday's National Football League game with the Chicago Bears here.

LOUIS (AP) Backed by the club's owner, St. Louis Cardinals Coach Jim Hanifan-said Wednesday he will bench quarterback Jim Hart for the remainder of the National Football League season. Hanifan's decision was an-' nounced by Bing Devine, executive vice president. Tne move opens a path for rookie Neil Lomax, who has played sparingly to date. Devine said Hanifan met; earlier Wednesday with the 37- year-old the top-ranking performer among quarterbacks still active in the NFL.

During the meeting, the coach absolved Hart of blame'' for St. Louis' 52-10 defeat at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles last week, said Devine. It was explained by Hanifan that Lomax is considered the Cards' quarterback of the' future. Lomax, who started against, the Dallas Cowboys in the se--cond game of the season, has passed for 509 yards on 34 com-," pletions in 88 attempts with four interceptions. He spelled Hart last week in the final quarter of the debacle against Philadelphia.

However, he was unable to complete any of three passes and suffered an interception as well as three sacks. MILWAUKEE (AP) Bart Starr and former Green Bay Packer teammate Ray Nitschke were among seven sports heroes from the past enshrined in the Wisconsin Hall of Fame Wednesday night at the Milwaukee Arena. Starr, now the coach of the Packers, was honored for the brilliant career in which he quarterbacked the Green Bay team to five National Football League titles and two Super Bowl championships. Nitschke, meanwhile, was honored for his outstanding career as a linebacker with the Packers. Also among the seven athletes honored was Don Gehrmann, a native of Milwaukee who became one of the world's greatest milers while competing for the University of Wisconsin in 1948-50.

Vic Reinders became the first trapshooter enshrined in the Hall of Fame. Reinders, a national champion shooter, told the 875 persons in the audience that he had not thought of himself as an athlete until he considered all the millions of rounds of ammunition he had shot and the countless times he cranked up his gun. "You are indeed an athlete," Starr responded. "If you were a quarterback, we'd have a spot open on our team for you." Also enshrined was Terry Brennan, a Milwaukee native who became Notre Dame's youngest football coach when hired 1954 at the age of 25.
