Noll of the Pittsburgh Steelers,
be named to the committee
along with two cither coaches —
each selected by the players and
the owners.
“They have the respect of the
players and the respect of man
agement, if it can get rid of its
jealousy,” Beck said. “They (the
coaches) can settle it quicker
than anyone else. They are men
of good will.”
“They will have a calming
effrct on the whole process.
They will move it out of the
gamesmanship that is going on
now.”
Beck said the strike is,“a ma

ly exclusive that no agreement is
tenable. Thus, the neey for the
middle ground the coaches
tread.”
The first step, be said, is
forming a separate Commission
staffed by both uniyn and man
agement representatives, to
draft a player “Bilfof Rights and
responsibilities.”
Then, enter tie coaches.
Beck said he doesn’t propose
using the coaches to sabotage
the collective bargaining pro
cess.
“Their ro^ would not be to
actually barj&in, but to serve as a
friendly influence to both
groups,” he said.
But Beck knows friendly in
fluence a«ne will not end the
strike. He proposes a series of
deadlines be established.
Beck recommends the game
schedule be resumed Nov. 7, re
gardless of whether an agree
ment has been reached. Then,
he proposes another deadline be
set, beyond which both sides
would pay expensive penalties if
they fail to reach an agreement.
However, Beck believes there
is much more than the season
riding on the strike and its even
tual resolution.
“The way it’s settled will de
termine the game of the future.
It will dictate relations in the fu
ture.”
“It takes catastrophe for
change, and the game will be
changed by this.”
How, he said, remains to be
seen.

At least three New York
nightclubs are playing Big Bald
music to turn-away crowds aid,
in Washington, D.C., the Share-
ham Hotel has redone its bal
lroom to accommodate tire big
bands. Brock said the music also
is gaining popularity in Los
Angeles and Chicago.
David John, an authority on
Big Band tunes who discusses
the swing era and its music on, a
weekly Houston radic program,
said the emerging popularity
can he traced to people return
ing to simple things again.
“Big band is not depressing
music, but upbeat,” John said.
“It’s easy to listeiito, but not con
sidered ‘easy listening’ or eleva
tor music. I think the cheek-to-
cheek dancing is coming hack.
Who wants to be 10 feet away
from your partner on the dance
floor?”
Ronnie Renfro, a 26-year-old
disc jocke)!' and Big Band show
promoter, claims the return of
swing-era .music to the radio is
not a result of the older crowds'
nostalgia.
“People are looking for an
alternative in their music and I
think they are finding a delight
ful difference in swing,” he said.
Two years ago, Renfro
helped promote the first Hous
ton Big Band dance which
attracted 10,800 people. Last
year, 11,200 attended. A cours^
on the swing era is offered at
Rice University and Renfro said
his students range in age frqm
10 to 82.
