-D THE MIAMI HERALD Thurs June 29 1972 On a Yon ii 2 Aflilolc's Life -Vs! I tV Stovall Fears Rise in Cost of Winning BOB ELLIOTT 1 rl A explain that deep pul feeling that an athlete has uhen he wins because he knotes he paid the price It costs more today to win than it did when I was a youngster and it will cost more tomorrow I am sometimes fearful to think what it will cost when my son is old enough to compete St Louis Card star Jerry Stovall many twice his age But they loved him They liked his uncomplicated energy Stovall paid for his football glory in practice hours he estimates over 18500 and all those broken bones days? Sometimes they bother me even on sunny he admitted ask most high school players about their injuries mostly broken toes and not much more serious Well my mother break her toe in the kitchen People break toes every day and not getting any glory out of trying to Stovall noted Meanwhile Stovall finds himself in the positive talking company of Dietzel and Gamecock Baseball Coach Bobby Richardson not really Meggyesy country Thq inflated cost of victory will not make Stovall rush his own son into sports or anything else young I want him to play a number of sports I want anybody to direct my son into a single area too Barely into the over-30 generation Stovall said he felt self-conscious talking to a group of veteran educators several others drove to the Mardi Gras Do you realize how far that is? Sixteen hundred miles almost two-thirds of the way across the face of this country" he said Those are distractions that Stovall never faced He also was an all-state athlete in both football and baseball an increasingly difficult thing to do now in an era of specialization The program picture depicted an eagle-eyed Stovall with crew-cut hair an old Stovall said with a soft laugh let my hair grow about a year and a half just long enough to comb now Stovall also wears eye glasses that lend him a professorial bearing a nonstop taliier who can shift from glib platitudes to surgical social analysis without dropping a syllable THE FORMER teammate of dropout Dave Meggyesy says he hears only static on wave length a very alarming and disturbing situation and not sure at all what Minors Bill Deserves Full Aid When- Richard Pallot chairman of the State Board of Business Regulation and members of the thoroughbred advisory committee staged a press conference last week one fact came out that disturbed me considerably It also had to have the same effect I would think on local thoroughbred track operators referring to what appeared to be a rather lukewarm attitude on the part of advisory committee chairman Bob Mackle toward lowering the age limit for attendance at thoroughbred tracks For several years I have been a strong booster for legislative action which would drop the age limit for race track patrons from 21 to 17 or 18 or even lower The horse tracks have made several attempts to get a so-called passed by the legislature but the Senate has proven too big a stumbling block In the 1969 1970 and 1971 sessions such a bill got out of committee in both the House and Senate but that was the end The House did pass a minors bill twice but it sat in the Senate calendar until adjournment Greyhound tracks and jai-alai frontons are admittedly not interested in getting the age limit lowered but as far as I know they particularly opposed to such a move where thoroughbred racing is concerned BOWLING dick evana Herald Tourney Lets Bowlers Pick Winning Moves DaDGKHSUDKl IMPORTED CAR SPECIALS 135x13 XBIack Hus 105 FE Tax Will Help Attendance WHY SHOULD THE AGE LIMIT be lowered for admittance to a Florida horse track? From my standpoint simply because it has to be at least one answer to one of the major problems confronting the thoroughbred plants a steady and alarming drop in attendance over the last few years Horse racing is simply not attracting new customers By the time an individual reaches 21 and by law can attend the races he or she has usually found other uses for his or her leisure time Pallot himself is cognizant of the need to bring new faces into horse racing attendance Track operators definitely realize this fact as they look at diminishing crowd figures A minors bill certainly be the cure-all but it would unquestionably help a great deal By EILL SHELDON Herald Jportt Wrltar Jerry Stovall retired from the St Louis football Cardinals last fall after nine bone-shattering seasons Often the bones were his own A bad knee finally betrayed him my years of football I have suffered a broken nose a fractured right cheek five lost teeth and a broken right Stovall said I have had a ripped sternum seven broken ribs and a calcium deposit in my right arm that prevents me from straightening it I have broken 11 fingers not too smart but I know broken one finger twice hurt my right foot so bad I almost lost it injured my right arch and broke my right big toe three He recited this awesome medical history for several hundred delegates to the National Federation of State High School Associations to illustrate the cost of victory for one football player himself BUT STOVALL admits he already misses his playing days despite all that explain that deep gut feeling an athlete has when he wins because he knows he paid the he said The onetime All-Pro defen- sive back was an all-purpose performer at Louisiana State and Heisman Trophy runner-up Stovall spoke about the cost of victory It was not a budget message costs more today to win than it did when I was a youngster and it will cost more tomorrow I am sometimes fearful to think what it will cost when my son is old enough to said Stovall a two-time All-American Stovall knows he had it both tough and easy back in West Monroe La where he grew up He had less temptation never had a car in high said Stovall boy or girl can commute 100 miles a day to school and think nothing about it today but 100 miles for me was a vacation with Mother and HE HAS joined Paul Diet-zel his old college coach at South Carolina we had three or four boys at South Carolina who went down to Jamaica over the spring break And Riessen Wins Tennis Test ST LOUIS Mo (UPI) Marty Riessen won his first-round match in the $50-000 Holton Tennis Classic Wednesday with a 7-6 6-1 victory over Tom Leonard Riessen won the tiebreaker in the first set with seven of the first 11 points Riessen won the first four games of the second set before Leonard took his only game on his own service In another first-round match Ishail El Shafel of -Cairo Egypt defeated Jeff Borowiak 6-2 3-6 7-6 El Shafei a left hander outplayed Borowiak convincingly in the first set and broke his service three times Borowiak won the second set and took the first four games of the third set before El Shafei won five straight games In another first-round match Haroon Rahim upset sixth-seeded Bob Lutz 3-6 7-66-2 TO HITE FRIDAY SATURDAY 8L POST SATURDAY NITE 10000 SUWANNEE BELLE NORTON TIRE CO SAYS SATISFACTION GUARANTEED OR YOUR MONEY REFUNDED If for my reason you ne not eomoletely satisfied with any new passenger car tire you buy from Notion Tire I Co return if along with your original invoice within i 90 days of the dale of purchase and your money will be refunded in full no questions asked1 Commercial vehicles eicluded Problems? Sure But A STRONG RECOMMENDATION to the legislature from board' of business regulation and its thorohghbred advisory committee would be of great aid Mackle did admit that his committee would examine the minors situation at its future meetings but added "there are endless problems associated with such a Certainly be problems a lot of them but the advantages seem too great to me to be simply passed over After all 18-year-olds can be drafted eligible to register to vote Why they be allowed to go into a race track? Bobby Fischer probably would make a good contestant for The $1000 Bowling Classic which opens this weekend The noted chess champion knows how to figure winning moves and an avid bowler to boot If Fischer were in Miami instead of Iceland for the world chess championship he might figure that 16 bowling lanes were the pawns in this unique bowling tournament And the bowlers are the kings and queens And it would only follow that the bowlers were the kings and queens and that they would have to remember in the qualifying rounds without any chance of getting HOW Fischer might figure it: Town Lanes University Bowl Bowl-O-Mat and Western Sunset will be the first four bowling centers to run their qualifying It starts Saturday and runs through the following weekend (July 9) So he might decide to use four bowlers like Laura and Ed Pendergraft and Pattie and Ed Amette as a pair of probing bishops They are good tournament bowlers' good friends and would make up a good team Fischer Just might send them down to Town Lanes for his first move since he knows that the Homestead bowling center does not have a strong game plan In other words there is a very good chance they all four could qualify for the county finals since there are few outstanding scratch bowlers at Town Lanes HOWEVER Fischer would be cautious because he would realize that a bowler throwing three games on his home lanes can be dangerous no matter the average If that move failed Fisher Hi fj nr- 2 Stakes at Pompano OPERATORS of the quarter horse race meeting at Pompano Park are hopeful that a pair of stakes will give them a highly-successful holiday weekend Saturday night brings the $10425 Suwannee Belle for fillies and mares while the Tuesday July 4 program will be headlined by the $26965 Central Florida Futurity for two-year-olds Moneyed Chick a five-year-old mare owned by Costello of New York tops a field of 10 in the 400-yard Suwannee Belle Ridden by Mike Moneyed Chick led 31 candidates with a clocking of 2031 seconds in last Satur- four qualifying trials It was the third victory three starts this season for Moneyed Chick who posted six triumphs and four seconds in 11 engagements in 1971 For the first 14 nights of its current meeting Pompano handled $1826473 an average of $130455 Attendance averaged 3109 for this period POLYESTER CORD FIBERGLASS BELTED WHITE just might send the foursome up to Bowl-O-Mat to try their luck However he again would be cautious because the Bowl -O-Mat faithful could be formidable in defense of their home lanes Fisher also might spot the potential best moves in the second round of qualifying Bird Bowl Coliseum Airport and Hialeah are scheduled July 8-16 All four centers loom tough in the division but Coliseum and possibly Hialeah are very weak in the division A SIMILAR situation would pop up in the third round (July 15-23) when Palm Springs Bowling Pal-' ace Bowlerama and Congress are scheduled Bowlerama looms the easiest qualifying spot since it is not noted for its big scratch leagues The fourth round (July 22-30) at Tropical Carol City Cloverleaf and West Dixie should be tough from several standpoints First all four centers produced superb scores last year and have their own home-lane favorites Second since this will be the final qualifying round many bowlers who waited until the last hour or missed out in the other centers will be struggling to qualify The top two men and high two women from each bowling center will compete in the championship round August 6 at Western Sunset Bowl There is a guaranteed team prize fund with another $500 expected for individual awards from the $5 house entry fee All bowling will be on a scratch basis and the bowlers rolling the high games although they may fail to qualify for the finals- will earn the house awards Bowlers may attempt to qualify in any center except where they are employed like it Colorless-Easy to Us GRECIAN FORMULA-16 is not a harsh coal tar dye but a colorless liquid you apply just like hair tonic As it grooms your hair day by day GRECIAN FORMULA-16 builds up color in gradual stages until in two or three weeks you see hair color so natural you hardly remember how you looked when you were gray Occasional use keeps it that way So why look like an man now that there is a masculine way to banish gray hair?
