ankees win first title in 12 years
:i;c
Associated Press
EW YORK — The New York
akees are back in the World Series
the first time since 1964, thrust
re on a dramatic home run by
ris Chambliss that decided the
lerican League pennant in the
th inning of the fifth and final
ivoff game.
|rhe series opens Saturday in Cin-
ci|nati and, after their emotional 7-6
tory over Kansas City, the Yan-
|es could have that intangible
led momentum on their side,
ertainly there was no fear of the
esome Big Red Machine as the
nkees spilled their first cham-
ne in a dozen years last night.
The Reds are beatable, said
nager Billy Martin.
We have five or six hitters who
rip the ball. Their pitching is
|ht. I think our pitching is better
bn theirs and it’s over the hump
now and will do a better job in the
World Series.”
Martin said he would name his
first game pitcher today with Dock
Ellis or Ken Holtzman the most
likely candidates. “Catfish Hunter
will probably go in Game 2,” the
Yankee skipper said.
World Series pitching very nearly
wasn’t a problem for Martin. That’s
because the Yankees came ever so
close to blowing the pennant,
squandering a three-run lead in the
eighth inning of Game 5 when
George Brett slugged a dramatic
home run to tie the score.
Then, a controversial call at sec
ond base ended a Royals’ rally in the
ninth with Brett, the American
League batting champion, waiting
for one more swing. He never got it
because Chambliss ended the ten
sion with ondyswish of his bat on the
first pitch from reliever Mark Littell
in the bottom of the ninth.
The Yankees had constructed a 6-3
lead after seven innings, mostly on
the hitting of Mickey Rivers, who
ripped four hits and scored three
runs, and Thurman Munson, who
had three singles and drove in two
runs.
With the crowd of 56,821 sensing
a pennant approaching, Ed Figueroa
went to work in the eighth. But he
didn’t last long. When Al Cowens
opened with a single, Martin came

out to get his starter.
“Figueroa was just out of gas,” the
manager explained.
“We had hoped for five innings
tonight from him and he gave us
more.”
Grant Jackson was the reliever
and pinch-hitter Jim Wohlford
looped a single to right, bringing up
Brett, the American League’s lead
ing hitter this season. He drilled

Jackson’s second pitch into the lower
stands in right field and suddenly the
score was tied.
An inning later, the Royals tried to
take the lead. With two out, Buck
Martinez collected his third hit of
the game and Cowens walked.
Wohlford hit a bouncer and third
baseman Craig Nettles charged the

Like it or not, security is what buys most
people peace of mind. Protection for the family.
Savings. Additional income.
And that’s what life insurance can give you.
Trouble is, most students don’t have money to
buy it.
With our Student Premium Financing Plan,
you can take out a policy before you can afford
the full premium. We advance the cash you need
at 6% interest and you have three years to meet
the maturity date. It’s that easy.
Stop by our campus office and let’s talk
about life insurance and peace of mind. Yours.
