The All Stars leftfielder Paul Harris roblied Edwards of a perfect day at the plate when Harris speared Edwards liner with one man on in the top of the fifth.

The Chicago CuIm are going to win the National League pennant but the Cubs will lose the World Series in 6 games to the increditable Baltimore Orioles.

There is no other manager more deserving of the title Manager of the Year" than Ted Williams. He revived baseball in Washington D.C., taking the kids off the street. But the politicians have little to fear, the splendid splinter doesnt dig the formal scene and would never choose to run. Mike Andrews of the Boston Red Sox is the liest second liaseinen in Iwscball today. Reggie Smith and Rico Petrocelli aren't far liehind him in their positions either. Boston though has perhaps the worst pitching staff of any Major League team. Imagine a game lietween Cincinnati and Boston why theyd proliably do more scoring than the Jets and Colts. Ernie Banks of the Cul is not only deserving of the name Mr. Cub", he should lie called Mr. Baseball. Banks is not only one of the game's genuine super stars but he is by far the greatest PR man liaseliall has ever had. Bill Russell shouldn't have retired until he showed Lew Alciudor how liasketliall should lie played.

But Oakland fans have nothing to lie ashamed of Reggie Jackson is he few before to win a home titles hangs up his famous going nui white shoes. Do me a favor, and figure out why people think youre insulting them if you don't endorse their home town team. I am really sorry for sports writers who call O. J.

Providence (ail lege has produced the two men who will lwttle it out this winter for the National Basketlnill Association's title of Manager of the Year. They are Joe Mullaney and Lennie Wilkens.
