Those are some of the ridiculous salaries the Dodgers are having to shell out next season, and it's oven worse with the Angels where people like Hohby Grleh and Joe Jiudi are eosting Gene Autry double what they're worth. One tends to get the idea that most professional athletes are vastly over paid, and you're right.

Hut that's the way the golden goose is laying its eggs nowadays. When sanity returns, after the crash, athletes will be drawing probably what a player now receives in triple A baseball. Kevin Stanfield, a pitching star at San Gorgonio High School in 1973 74 and later at SBVC, disclosed he has just signed a pact ith the Minnesota Tw Ins' Class AAA farm club at Toledo for about what Rod Carew receives for two minutes of work. "I'll be getting the triple A minimum wage of a month," said Stanfield, who just returned from a big winter in one of the Mexican leagues. "We got $10 a day for meals last year, and it's going up to $12 this season." The 0 foot 1, 190-pound Stanfield hurled for the Los Mochis team and posted an 84 record, with a flossy 219 earned run average.

In 1977 he was ith Visalia in the Class A California League, then Jumped to 3-A Toledo last season. "I've been a starter all the way." said Stanfield. "I don't care about being a relief pitcher.

I've been invited to Minnesota's camp next week, and I have a longshot chance of sticking with the main club." The Tw ins' pitc hers and catchers report to Orlando, Feb. 21, while the rest of the players check in Feb. 28. At $900 a month, we could never say Stanfield was overpaid. Now that the Twins don't have to worry about Carew's salary, maybe they should cut Kevin in on a bigger slice.

Watson told the Monroe Journal that Padecky had tried to "dig up dirt" on Stabler and may have been "trying to get headlines" in the incident. Watson and another Stabler associate, Billy Walker, reportedly were with Stabler at the Silver Dollar Lounge in Gulf Shores on Jan. 22 when Stabler expressed to Padecky his dislike for an earlier story Padecky had written. Padecky said Stabler left and, after about five minutes, the other two men left.

Athletes are born, not made. This is just not true. Athletic excellence requires dedication and hard work. 2. You can become fit by exercising a few minutes a week.

A basic element of fitness is the capacity of the heart to do work. This is called cardiovascular fitness. To achieve cardiovascular fitness, you must push your heartbeat to more than 60 percent of its maximum for at least 30 minutes three times a week. If you're between 20 and 40, that level is about 200 beats per minute. That means you must raise your pulse rate to 120.

3. The more you train, the more fit you become. You can make a mistake by training too hard or by training too much. 4. The best way to improve your fitness or athletic performance is to train hard every day.

Every time you exercise vigorously, muscle fibers are slightly damaged and your muscles burn up their fuel and become depleted. You must allow time for your muscles to recover. 5. If you attain a high degree of fitness, you will remain fit even with a layoff. RIDICULOUS! Your muscles Including your heart muscle quickly lose their ability to utilize oxygen efficiently if they are not stressed constantly.

6. You don't have to do stretching exercises if you're fit. Hard exercise shortens muscles and makes them more susceptible to pulls and strains. Therefore, the more physically active you are, the more you need to stretch. 7.

Exercise can harm you because it enlarges the heart. Exercise puts a moderate stress on your heart, which causes it to become stronger, larger and more muscular. Heart attacks are caused by a failure in the supply of blood to the heart. In an extremely well conditioned person, the arteries supplying blood to the heart are enlarged and are therefore much less susceptible to clogging or stoppage. 8.

A normal electrocardiogram means your heart is healthy and you can safely perform vigorous exercise. Not so. A normal resting electrocardiogram means very little. A stress electrocardiogram, taken while you are exercising, is another story. 9.

Vitamin supplements improve fitness and performance. There is no scientific evidence to support this belief. Not only are vitamins usually unnecessary, in overdoses they can be harmful. 10. Vitamin B-12 injections cure chronic fatigue.

Actually, B-12 injections can only perk up pure vegetarians who have abstained from eating animal products for at least 10 years, or persons with pernicious anemia. 11. Athletes require more protein in their diet. Muscles are composed of protein, but scientific studies clearly show that protein requirements do not rise significantly with exercise. 12.

Steak and potatoes are the best pre-game or pre-exercise meal. Steak ranks as a poor source of immediate energy. The fat in steak can actually impair performance. The best athletic fuel is carbohydrates found in potatoes, crackers and bread. 13.

You should take salt tablets to replace salt lost in sweat. NEVER take salt tablets! Let your taste buds tell you when to salt your food. If you are low on salt, you will crave salt. If you get too much salt in your system, you may develop high blood pressure, clots in your bloodstream or heat exhaustion. Several football players have died in the heat after taking salt tablets.

14. Exercise should be avoided in cold weather because cold air can freeze your lungs. Frozen lung has never been reported in an athlete. 15. Amphetamines improve athletic performance.

If anything, they hinder it. Amphetamines only make you think you are doing better than you actually are. Johnson is honored by Pac 10 SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Oregon State center and ex-San Gorgonio High School star Steve Johnson, who totaled 69 points in a pair of Beavers' victories, has been named Pacific 10 basketball Player of the Week. The 6-foot-10 sophomore made 13 of 19 field goal attempts, scored 33 points and grabbed 14 rebounds in a 70-67 victory over Southern Cal, then hit a career-high 36 points in a 93-79 triumph over Arizona. Johnson was honored Monday by the conference.

For the week, he totaled 87 points and 27 rebounds in three games including a loss to Arizona State. Ashe, Ramirez Bohrnstedt still former Redlands High School star and USC all-American Dick Bohrnstedt. Walts fell to John Sadri, 6-7, 6-3, 64. Lewis lost to Dick Stockton, 6-7 (7-3), 6-3, 6-3. Stan Smith finally overcame the stubborn Bohrrstedt, 5-7, 7-6, 7-1.

The big boys arrive today, when, on consecutive center court matches, it's McEnroe vs. Tom Gullikson, Borg vs. Bruce Manson and Connors vs. Vladmir Zednik. In other opening-day matches, Charlie Pasarell defeated Jaime Fillol of Chile 6-3, 7-6; Victor Amaya topped Sherwood Stewart 6- 4, 6-1: Heinz Gunthardt of Switzerland eliminated David Scheinder of South Africa 7- 5, 6-3; Colin Dowdeswell of Switzerland rallied to beat Peter Feigl of Austria 2-6, 6-4, 7-5; Peter McNamara downed Bernie Mltton of South Africa 7-5, 8-3; Wojtek Flbak of Poland topped Francisco Gonzalez of Puerto Rico 2-6, 6-4, 6-3; Bob Lutz whipped Carlos Klrmayr of Brazil 6-3, 6-1 and Tom Okker of Holland beat Anggeo Gimenez of Spain 5-7, 6-3, 6-2.

(Continued from B-9) downing Brian Teacher, a tall, powerful player. Tanner's booming serve and well-placed passing shots came out on top, 6-3, 5-7, 6-3, in perhaps the best-played match of the day. Afterward, Tanner was relieved and, at the same time, looking forward to his next match (against Cliff Drysdale.) "I had a tough draw," he said with a sigh.

"Teacher is a very good player. But I didn't make many errors on my volley and I have been playing well moving well." Tanner is the defending champ here but admitted it wasn't quite as strong a field last year. "It's a different tournament this year," he said when asked about the prospects of facing the likes of Connors and Borg. "I'm not worried about who's here, though," he added. "I'm just thinking about my next match.

I'll get better and better each match. "If I keep getting to the next one, that is." It was a rough day for USC alumni as qualifiers Chris Lewis and Butch Walts both lost, as did Dr. Mirkin and Mr. Hoffman welcome questions from readers.

Although it's happened that way quite a bit on the Grand Prix circuit for Dick, the name Bohrnstedt is still a legend around Redlands. The clan accounted for eight Citrus Belt League singles titles.

His older brother, Ron, won the CBL singles title twice, and now is a teaching pro at a resort hotel in West Virginia. Younger brother Dave duplicated Dick's feat, winning the championship three straight years, and now teaches tennis in Dallas. Dick, who is now 28, married and the father of a young daughter, admits the grind of the tour is getting "harder and harder" and says he plans to slow the pace down. Off the court, that is. On the court, he's always at full speed.

Always charging, he looks like one of the tailbacks for which his college alma mater is famous. Of course you need a net in this game, but it almost seems to confine Bohrnstedt. He now lives in Laguna Niguel and plans to begin a teaching job at the Irvine Racquet Club in March that will cut into his playing schedule "a lot." "I'm not sure how much playing I'll do. I'll have to play it by ear, but hopefully the job will go well." One gets the feeling he hopes it goes really well. It's a pretty good bet the weekenders in Irvine don't have the reach of a Stan Smith or the forehand of a Bjorn Borg.

(Continued from B-9) achieving a service break, all the while handily holding his own serve. But in the second-set tiebreaker, Bohrnstedt fell victim to a seemingly rejuvenated Smith, who no doubt didn't want to lose to a player he'd never lost to before in four matches and one who had to play over the weekend just to qualify for the tournament. Smith won the tiebreaker 7-3 and then broke Bohrnstedt twice in a row in the third set to race to a 5-0 lead. In the fourth game, Bohrnstedt appeared to finally give in to Smith, who was volleying brilliantly. In the fifth game, a tired, frustrated and irritated Bohrnstedt watched one more incredible get by Smith, threw his hands in the air, and cried out, "You're too big you're just too big.

You're arms are bigger than my whole body." After Smith closed him out 6-1 in the final set, Bohrnstedt confirmed that the tiebreaker was the crucial point in the match. "The momentum switched right there," he said. "He (Smith) got more confidence. His overall game picked up. I knew if I didn't win the tiebreaker, I'd be in trouble." Still, he wasn't too displeased with his effort.

"Some parts of my game were a little streaky," he said, "but I returned serve really well for a while and volleyed pretty good. It's just that I still wasn't breaking. It got pretty discouraging after a while. What if they gave a tourney the four previous days. That tells you something about pro tennis that hordes of people won't come to watch Terry Holla-day play Pam Teeguarden, or Evert dismantle Regina Marsikova.

Should Holladay or Teacher or Bunge advance to Sunday's final, fans would have all the room they wanted to spread out and relax. One concession stand would serve the needs of all. And the Avon reps would have faces to match their company's ruby-red rouge. Because the likes of Teacher, Smith, Terry Holladay and Pam Teeguarden would undoubtedly fade into tournament history come the weekend. And the weekend is when the crowds come to a tennis tournament.

They come to watch the name players against each other. They dish out more money for bad seats then they would for good seats now. Last year, nearly 20.000 turned out for the weekend portion, hile only 13,000 filed through turnstiles (Continued from B-9) John Wrayne's want for acting in a musical. My reasoning? Quite simple. For one thing, I detest events that are, essentially, one-night stands turned into week-long extravaganzas.

I enjoy professional competition as much as anyone, but watching Kathy May Teacher pummel Anne Smith was reminiscent of a Shephard College-West Virginia State basketball game I once ol served. I observed, pondered and thought, "Maybe it's me, but this doesn't seem very significant. Perhaps if Teacher as a cousin I'd be more enthralled. Then again, I have a cousin ho goes duck hunting every October and that doesn't stir me." Or maybe it was the fact I heard myself think that, as I sat alone in the far reaches of the Forum. But even in the bustling hallways adjacent to the court, I entertained much the same conclusion: that I'm not alone in my thinking..
