The cagers. last of the U.S. contingents to arrive, went straight to practice on Monday while the rest of the American athletes awaited the issuing of special passes that would finally free them from the university grounds and allow them to gain access to the "city outside."

"We were able to move freely with our visas in all the other Iron Curtain countries. "But maybe al! this is good especially after what happened last year in Munich.

Aaron. 39. who is 13 home runs short of Babe Ruth's career record 714. has been receiving hate mail throughout the season from persons who want to see Ruth's record stand. "K very body knows Aaron has been receiving hale mail and I guess the ball clubs have decided to give him extra protection." said Donald Davidson, assistant to the Braves boardchairtnan. "It ail began in New York a few weeks ago," he said. "There were extra police to take him from the team bus oumide the stadium to the ciubhouse." Aaron played only Saturday in a three-gamscries with the Pirates, and two extra policemen reportedly were stationed in section a photographer's adjacent to the Pirate dugout.

It's the very least I can do," e relief says the stocky ace. "I owe my life to others very similar to these people we have here in our program. By tneir example, they gave me the faith that I, too. could overcome my illness. "Alcoholism is a disease, the same as heart trouble or any other. An alcoholic is no more to blame for his illness than any other afflicted person. One of the problems is that alcoholism is a stigma disease. Nobody wants to say he's an alcoholic: nobody wants to say anybody in his family is." Duren put in time with the Orioles. Angels. Phillies. Reds and Senators as well as the Yankees during his seasons in the majors. The one thing he always could one-tim- do was throw hard, extraordinarily so. His strikeout p'io per inning actually was better than such Hall of Fsmers Grove as Waiter Johnson. Lf-ft- and Carl Hubbell. that's he threw. He pitched in two World Series and was named on r four teams. "Washington was the last club I played for in 1965. says Duren. "I really hit the juice hard after that. Most people thought all it took was 2 or 3 beers to get me drunk, but actually you generally saw me with five times what you thought I was drinking. I was sneaking the drinks. First you'd see me at one end of the bar. then the other. I'd have a drink going at each end." Duren remembers one night in San Antonio. It was New Year's night and he felt like celebrating the fact he hadn't gone out the evening before. So he got himself all nice and juiced up. staggered somehow to his car and drove it smack on to a railroad track. "I just parked it and left it right there." he says. "I saw this guy running a switch engine, and said to him. "Go ahead and hit it. you big bastard! You big guys are always shoving us little guys around.'" Cops Came Along Pretty soon the cops came along and hauled "little" Ryne how-har- and 200 pounds, off to Duren. jail. Sometime later Duren entered San Antonio State Hospital and remained there 82 days. ' I got out in March of 1966 just in time for spring training." he smiles wryly.
