Yanks must stop Dodgers tonight

Series getting more bizarre
United Press International
NEW YORK — What this World Series
needs is a little pizazz.
After all, besides the Los Angeles Dodgers
making their usual comeback, the New York
Yankees owner breaking his hand in an eleva
tor, the Dodger infield playing in handcuffs,
the Yankee outfield performing in leg irons,
the Dodger manager hugging everything that
moves, and the Yankee baserunners acting like
confused roadrunners on a freeway, what has
really happened?
Well, Dodger right-hander Burt Hooton
opposes New York lefty Tommy John tonight,
weather permitting, with a chance to give the
Dodgers their first North American title since
1965. A forecast of rain could put the game in
jeopardy, though. No, Johnny Carson will not
be the home plate umpire.
“This team is loose and that’s one big reason
why we do so well in tight situations, ” said the
Dodgers’ Jay Johnstone, who clouted a key
two-run, pinch homer in Game 4 to spark an
8-7 triumph.
If the Dodgers are loose, they sure belong in
this Series. They have yet to play a crisp,
flawless game and they still lead, three games
to two. New York once led this affair 2-0 and
has taken considerable pains to wind up in the
danger zone.
“The last two games we beat ourselves,”
understated Yankee catcher Rick Cerone.
Yankee outfielders Reggie Jackson and Bob
by Brown helped cost the Yankees a game with
fielding blunders. Larry Milboume and Aure-
lio Rodriguez have made basic baserunning
mistakes. And $20 million man Dave Winfield
was so happy about finally getting a hit he
called for the ball.
But like a team serious about winning, the
Dodgers are making sure to capitalize. They
have already come back in two postseason
series and need just one victory in two games
in Yankee Stadium to complete a third. They
believe this is their year.
Dodger manager Tommy Lasorda just keeps
praising and hugging. You get the feeling that
he’ll put the ballboys in the Hall of Fame if he
wins this thing.
“The three games we just played in Los
Angeles, that we each won by one run, were
three of the most exciting games anyone could
associate with,” said Lasorda, who also
chanted, “The Fall Classic, The Fall Classic. ”
Yankee owner George Steinbrenner added
more daffiness to the Series Sunday night by
reporting he had scuffled with two belligerent
Dodger fans in a hotel elevator, breaking a
hand.
“I was coming down the elevator to have
dinner,” Steinbrenner said in an interview
with ABC television Monday night. “There
were two people, one in the elevator and one
holding the door. One had a beer in his hand.
Then he said some things about New York City
and the people who live there.
“The next thing I knew he hit me. I’m get
ting too old for that. I don’t condone that sort of
thing. I get tired once in a while of people
knocking New York. The fight was started not
by me. We were treated beautifully in Los
Angeles.
“I’ll say something for Tommy Lasorda and
the Dodgers. They never gave up. He kept
saying they wouldn’t give up and they didn’t.
It’s a different team than the ones we saw in
1977 and 1978.”
Hooton and John have faced each other
already in the Series, with John emerging the
victor in Game 2.
“I’m hoping and praying Hooton can lock it
up tomorrow because he was the guy who
pitched the big one against the Astros and the
Expos,” said Lasorda.
John said he will take a relaxed attitude to
the mound and hope for the best.

the 42 coaches who comprise the

Syracuse, held steady at No. 2,

points.
North Carolina, rated No. 3 last
week, suffered its first defeat in
seven games — a 31-13 loss to
South Carolina — and tumbled to
No. 11.

It is a tall order. Yet, it is a challenge that must be met.
Our future as an industrial society depends on our ability
to find more efficient ways to use our limited fuel
resources. At Fluor, we are working hard to find the
answers.
For over 60 years, we have helped the energy industries by
designing and building modern refining, petrochemical,
chemical and natural gas facilities. During that time, Fluor
engineers have been in the forefront of energy related
technology.
At present, we are applying new methodology in the
extraction of oil from tar sands and shale, coal gasification
and the refining of high sulphur feedstocks. This is a
challenging, exciting time for engineers who are interested
in solving complex problems.
