Edward Kod il Aug. 19, pn United Press International NEW YORK(UPI) — In the 1 'Jaseball world, thumbtacks have L* 01(1 lore to do with Rick Honeycutt Bbulletin boards. 7 Aife Honeycutt, who suffered Ojll^ouf’h a string of 14 losses in 15 j&cisions last year, was nabbed rith a thumbtack taped to the fin- >nipetitioim: er 0 f his glove hand by umpire elf leasing filjll Kunkel Sept. 30 while he was he nationitching against Kansas City, natural resoc He was promptly suspended ild said )r 10 games.

I would athschild s ,ave used a chainsaw if I thought it /ould help me. “It was nothing anybody told ne jto do. I should have asked for dp instead of doing what I did. I IBwant to forget about it.” Sin ce the trade, however, Hon- ycutt has proven that the only elp he really needs is a few hits ndjsome steady fielding. He got those hits in the first pig Tuesday night when Bump Vills, Al Oliver and Buddy Bell troked consecutive singles to give KlRangers the only run they ceded to hand Dave Righetti, dicf struck out a career-high nine Iters in six innings, his first loss ur decisions. “I know we’ve got good hitters,” d Oliver, who had two hits off Brock named Ag softball coach Bob Brock, former Baylor Uni versity softball coach, has been hired as the new Texas A&M women’s softball coach according to Kay Don, women’s athletic di rector for Texas A&M. Brock graduated from Sam Houston State University in 1969 with a degree in sociology. In 1978 he received his master’s degree in criminal justice from American Technological University. Brock has an extensive back ground in the law enforcement field, having served three years with the Texas Department of Corrections. After he left the de partment he worked three years as adult probation officer and four years as a deputy sheriff. He began coaching in 1977 when he took a girl’s fastpitch team to the state championship. In 1979 he coached the Texas Teenage Girls State Champions. Brock joined the Baylor staff in the fall of 1979 in the part-time position of softball coach. While at Baylor his teams rep resented the AIAW Divison II College World Series in 1980 and ’81 and was widely respected among his peers for his knowledge of the game. His 1981 spring record at Baylor was 29 wins, 27 losses, most of those coming at the hands of Divi sion I teams. “He’s a super person. Very en thusiastic and energetic,” Don said of Brock. “I have every confi dence in the world he’ll do a good job.” Brock will be hardpressed to fill the shoes of Bill Galloway, who before he left, guided the Aggies to three consecutive trips to the Division I World Series. “I feel he will do a good job. He took Baylor to their Series and we have several outstanding players returning. He thinks we have a team that is unbeatable,” Don said. Don also said Brock is also a good recruiter, having had two good recruiting years in a row. The position was left open when Bill Galloway resigned to take a similar position at Louisiana Tech University July 7th. Brock, who is married and has three children, will assume his re sponsibilities shortly. DIETING?

OPEN .Monday through Friday 10:45 AM-1:45 PM QUALITY FIRST Righetti. “I’ve always felt that if we could get some good pitching we’d be a top team. Tonight we got good pitching.” The Yankees have just seven hits in their first two games of the second season but Manager Gene Michael says his team will come around. “The hitters are behind,” said Michael. “The only thing the pitchers lack is endurance. They throw hard early and they make good pitches, get relieved and the next guy does the same. You can always take the pitcher out but the batters need more at-bats.” Michael said he didn’t see Hon eycutt do anything illegal Tuesday night. “I was watching him closely,” he said. “I don’t think he fooled around at all.” Righetti, despite suffering the loss, was pleased with his per formance. “I’m not really disappointed at losing, ” he said. “I thought I pitched well. My fastball was mov ing. This will give me confidence in my next start. Oliver, in his 14th major league season, confirmed Righetti’s assessment. “He’s, got a super fastball,” said Oliver. “When he gets it up, he’s unhittable. I was really impressed with his heat.” Jim Kern came on for Hon eycutt, 7-1, with one out in the sixth and Rick Cerone on second. He got the next two batters out and went into the ninth inning, before the Yankees produced their biggest threat. Willie Randolph opened the ninth with a single and Jerry Mumphrey’s sacrifice moved him to second. John Johnson came on for Kern and retired Oscar Gam ble on a groundout with Randolph taking third. Rookie Dave Schmidt was brought in and got Dave Winfield on a grounder to shortstop to pick up first major- league save. Simply Great Mexican Food.

Calling is a type of prayer for it is a part of our prayer, but calling is not merely praying. The Hebrew word for call means to “call out to,” “to cry unto,” that is, to cry out. The Greek word for call means “to invoke a person,” “to call a person by name.” In other words, it is to call a person by naming him audibly. Although prayers may be silent, calling must be audible. Calling on the Lord began in the third generation of the human race with Enosh, the son of Seth (Gen. 4:26). The history of calling on the Lord’s name continued throughout the Bible with Abraham (Gen. 12:8), Isaac (Gen. 26:25), Moses (Dent. 4:7), Job (Job 12:4), Jabez (1 Chron. 4:10), Samson (Judg. 16:28), Samuel (1 Sam. 12:18), David (2 Sam. 22:4), Jonah (Jonah 1:6), Elijah (1 Kings 18:24), and Jeremiah (Lam. 3:55). Not only did the Old Testament saints call on the Lord, they even prophesied that others would call on His name (Joel 2:32; Zeph. 3:9; Zech. 13:9). Calling on the name of the Lord was practiced by the New Testament believers beginning on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:21). While Stephen was being stoned to death, he was calling on the name of the Lord (Acts 7:59). The New Testament believers practiced calling on the Lord (Acts 9:14; 22:16; 1 Cor. 1:2; 2 Tim. 2:22). Saul of Tarsus received authority from the chief priests to bind all that called on the name of the Lord (Acts 9:14). This indicates that all the early saints were Jesus-callers. Their calling on the name of the Lord was a sign, a mark, that they were Christians. If we become those who call on the name of the Lord, our calling will mark us out as Christians. Paul the Apostle stressed the matter of calling when he wrote the book of Romans. He said, “For there is no difference between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord of all is rich to all who call upon Him. For, whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Rom. 10:12-13). Paul also spoke of calling on the Lord in 1 Corinthians when he wrote the words, “with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their and ours” (1 Cor. 1:2). Furthermore, in 2 Timothy he told Timothy to pursue spiritual things with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart (2 Tim. 2:22). By all of these verses we can see that in the first century the Christians practiced calling on the name of the Lord very much. We can also testify that as we call upon our dear Lord’s name out of a ure heart, we are inwardly refreshed, enlivened and strengthened. For whenever we call upon the Lord’s name we ceive the riches of the Lord Jesus Himself. Optical Shoppe BACK-I0-SCH00L SALE! That's Right!
