Garber-has to be the most effective Brave relief pitcher since Cecil! Upshaw saved the 1969 division pennant Dean George Griffin reminds me that I overlooked the fact that Bob Davis, All-America tackle at Georgia Tech in 1947, has been elected to the National Football Foundation's Hall of Fame.

Belated congratulations to Bob, who is a former mayor of Columbus and now resides in Chattanooga, where he is president of Dixie Yams. Former pro linebacker E. J.

For the second year in a row, the Vikings have cut off season-ticket sales at the 41,500 markujf Jim Irsay, a walk-on linebacking candidate at SMU, makes the i team, he should rank high on the Baltimore Colt draft list Dad Robert owns the Chlsox owner Bill Veeck ousted Bob Lemon and named Larry Doby manager, it was only the second time be has changed pilots in midstream. Veeck fired Rogers Hornsby in 1952 when he owned the late St. Louis Browns. Don't tell Marvin Miller, the baseball onion chief, that today's players are overpaid. Marvin vows that only 26 percent of baseball revenues go to players, a smaller percentage than SO years agoMost unbelievable statistic in sports is Richard Petty, all-time king of the NASCAR road, being 0-for-S0.

A Yankee fan recently sent Manager Billy Martin an engraved plaque that reads: Extraordinary Achievement Award to BUly Martin for Having Reached the Age of Fifty Without Being Murdered by Someone to the Amazement of All who Know When stats are involved, yon cant top the NFL Someone has figured air miles teams will travel next season. The 49ers lead the league with 30,536, and the Bedsides are last with Cincy Manager Sparky Anderson, who knows one kid who cast 5,000 ballots in this year's All-Star election, wants to see the system changed.

Kelso as Hie all-time money winner the next time he visits the winner's of racing loot, Darrel McHargue and Steve Cauthen have already booted in winners this year collecting more than $0 million in total purses.
