NEW YORK — Darrell
Evans, who clubbed 30 home
runs this year, was picked by 17
of the 26 major league teams
and Kent Tekulve, who notched
a 1.64 ERA with 18 saves, was
chosen by 12 Monday as baseball
clubs sought to strengthen
themselves in the eighth annual
Re-Entry Draft for free agents.
Tekulve is classified as a Type
A player because he was in the
top 20 percent statistically at his
position over the past two years.
Should he be signed by another
club, his 1983 team — the Pitt
sburgh Pirates — would have to
be compe
amateur araft choice plus a pro
fessional player selected from a
pool of non-protected players.
Four others — Doug Bair,
Dennis Lamp, Tom Underwood
and Milt Wilcox — among the 45
free agents were also T>u>e A
players and two — Manny Trillo
and Ruppert Jones — were
Type B or among the top 30 per
cent, meaning their 1983 club
would be compensated with two
amateur draft choices.

Evans was exempt from such
classification because he has

UPDATE
BALL
Here’s a reminder for all you Ags about the
new SHAPE UP TWO program. This program
is offered through the Intramural-Recreational
Sports Office and it is designed for those indi
viduals who want to make a personal committ
ment to physical fitness.
The program is based on a assigned weekly
school year system where the participant must
fulfill his/her goals within a period from October
3, 1983 to August 31, 1984. This is different
from the original SHAPE UP program which
operates on a calendar year.
Weekly progress reports are available at the
Intramural-Recreational Sports Department
and weekly totals will be posted on the bulletin
board outside the office.
A SHAPE UP TWO certificate is awarded for
the completion of 250 points and a SHAPE UP
TWO t-Shirt is awarded for the completion of
500 points. If you complete 1000 points your
name will be inscribed on the SHAPE UP TWO
Hall of Fame plaque. It’s up to you Ags to get in
shape, so why not SHAPE UP?
For those who are interested, the original
SHAPE UP program still exists. It is available
for anyone who is interested in getting in shape
but doesn’t want to be obligated to achieve
weekly goals.
