Killebrew, 39, told a news conference Wednesday he had quit the game after 22 years to do the play-by-play and color commentary for the Minnesota games on an independent television station in the Minneapolis area. Killebrew was just out of high school in 1954 when he became the first bonus baby ever to sign with the Washington Senators. He stayed with the club when it moved to Minnesota but was released following the 1974 season. Last year, he was a designated hitter for the Kansas City Royals.

The paunchy but muscular Killebrew, one of the strongest men ever to play the game, hit 573 homers during his career for fifth place on the all-time list behind Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, Willie Mays and Frank Robinson. Frequent injuries throughout his career kept him from achieving even power honors. However, no other American League right-handed hitter ever has had more home runs. Killebrew, who played outfield, third base and first base, quipped that the secret of his ability to hit home runs was that found I had to hit them out of the park because I going to run Killebrew holds numerals records for most games played in a season without a stolen base. On a more serious note, he said that hitting a God- given ability that a player has.

He said his new career will give him an opportunity to stay at home more and to take advantage of other opportunities. He said there were offers for him to play again this season and he to people in but when the television opening came along at a station where he already had worked a pre-game show for a dozen years, he decided it was time to change jobs. 3rmceton 66 Gibson Southern Continued on Page 20.

Baseball Talks MIAMI BEACH (AP) boss Marvin Miller says a clause which threatens to wipe out dozens of spring training games might be overlooked if major league baseball owners settle the labor war. The clause referred to by Miller, executive director of the Players Association, is in the expired labor contract and says that players cannot be forced to play exhibitions until they have at least 10 days in camp. The California Angels announced Wednesday they had cancelled their March 9,10 and 11 games in Mexico, because they would not be within the 10- day period.

Most camps were scheduled to open last Monday, but the owners say they will keep them closed until there is a new labor pact or sufficient progress in contract talks. The ruling could eliminate many games, since all teams are scheduled to be in action by March 13. respect to the rule, you be required to play until you are in camp 10 days, but the players could waive Miller said Wednesday after a negotiating session with the Player Relations Committee, which both sides called fruitless. Miller said he had offered on Feb. 21 to return to the owners six years of their reserve clause and added he had received no comment from them.

But John J. Gaherin. the owners' bargaining agent, said the answer to Miller was a counter-proposal last Friday. have done it without Mike He has been and is continuing to be an enormous she said, adding (hat the two are still of friends." taking it a step at a Mrs. Hiss said.
