shares the
‘good life’
United Press International
MALVERN, Pa. — When Patty
Sheehan says, “I’m having a pretty
good life,” no one doubts her in the
least.
After her victory Sunday in the
$350,000 LPGA Kids’ Classic, Shee
han leads the 1984 women’s tour in

victories, three, and official money
winnings at $164,982.
The tournament was sponsored
by McDonald’s Corp.
But it isn’t just the money. The
27-year-old Californian showed
gritty determination in the sauna
like conditions at the White Manor
Country Club to outduel Amy Alcott
Sunday in the final round. In addi
tion to Alcott, there was the pressure
of a $500,000 bonus that was peck
ing away at her concentration.

United Press International
Away from golf, Sheehan also has
a keen awareness of her life and
those around her. Her involvement
with a home for troubled teenaged
girls in northern California means as
much to her as the money and rec
ognition she gets from golf.
The facility, known as “Tigh
Sheehan” which means “House of
Sheehan” in Gaelic, offers counsel
ing and education in a home envi
ronment. She purchased the house
two years ago.
“I’m having a pretty good life and
I’d like to share it with others who
aren’t so fortunate,” said Sheehan,
sipping champagne Sunday after
collecting the $52,500 first-prize
check and the bonus.
“I’m real fortunate to be able to
give back a little bit. I picked it (Tigh
Sheehan) because it’s close and I can
see the progress the kids are making.
There are quite a few real success
stories and it means a lot to me to
know that maybe I had something to
do with them. The house is a very
special part of my life.”
MAMARONECK, N Y. — The
star of the show a few miles down
the road, Scott Simpson took on his
more familiar role as just another
anonymous face in the crowd Mon
day when golfing’s elite gathered for
the U.S. Open.
It is ludicrous, of course, to sum
marily dismiss a $500,000 tourna
ment, but because of unfortunate
scheduling, the Westchester Classic
merely served as a tuneup to the
grand show which starts Thursday at
Winged Foot.
The distance between the West
chester Country Club and Winged
Foot is little more than 5 miles, but
many of the game’s top names, such
as Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, Ben
Crenshaw, Hale Irwin and Lee Tre
vino, elected to bypass the Westches
ter to give themselves more prepara
tion time for the Open.
For Simpson, though, the detour
was well worth the trip and in his
subdued, easy-going manner, win
ning the Westchester was just about
as good as winning the Open. When
you haven’t been able to win any
where on the circuit in four years,
winning something is all that mat
ters.
“I had about five second-place fin
ishes since winning the Western (in
1980), but I couldn’t quite get over
the edge,” Simpson said Sunday af
ter his 6-under-par 65 gave him a
five-stroke victory and the $90,000
first prize, only $4,000 less than the
Open winner will earn. “I Figured it
would come around, and I’m glad it
came around today.”
The 28-year-old Californian
knows full well the value of winning
the Open, and it is a title he dearly
would love to have, but Simpson isn’t
about to place added pressure on
himself.
“I hate to say it, but if I don’t play
well or don’t win it, it’s not the end of
the world,” he said. “I’ve got a great
wife, I’ve got a great little girl and
I’ve got a great house in San Diego. I
enjoy my golf, but I don’t won
about it. I’m not rich by any men
I’m well off. It’s just the satisfact*
of winning.”

Another special part of her life
came Sunday when she took home
what officials said was the biggest
one-day payout in the history of pro
fessional golf. The $500,000 bonus
was awarded to Sheehan for her vic
tories here and in the LPGA
Championship the previous week
end.
Ex-Cowboy sentenced
to jail for sexual assuall
United Press International
“This is a thrill that ranks up there
with my first tour victory (a 1981
event in Japan), my first major (the
1983 LPGA) and my first half-mil
lion dollars in winnings,” she said.
“It’s nice to know I’ll have a nice re
tirement.”
The bonus money, put up by
sponsors of this tournament, the
LPCA and the Corning Classic, is
payable in 10 yearly installments of
$50,000 each beginning in 1994.
LONG BEACH, Calif. — Former
Dallas Cowboys linebacker Thomas
“Hollywood” Henderson was sen
tenced Monday to five years in
prison for sexually assaulting two
teenage girls and offering them a
bribe to stop them from testifying.
Superior Court Judge Ernest
Kelly could have sent Henderson, a
two-time All-Pro linebacker, to
prison for as long as 18 years.
Kelly, who revoked Henderson’s
$16,000 bail, also recommended
Henderson serve his four-year,
eight-month sentence in a minimum
security prison.
Henderson, a member of the Dal-'
las Cowboys’ Super Bowl teams in
1976, ’78 and ’79, pleaded no contest
to four charges stemming from a
November abduction and sexual as
sault on a 17-year-old quadriplegic
and her 15-year-old girlfriend.
The former football player, who
retired in 1981, had also pleaded no
contest to charges he offered the two
girls a $10,000 bribe to testify he had
not molested them.
In California, a “no contest” plea
carries the same penalties as a guilty
plea, but does not admit to guilt.
Prosecutors said Henderson lured
the two girls to his Long Beach
apartment on Nov. 2, forcedtte
gunpoint to disrobe, subjectedtk
to oral copulation and gave drug!
the teenagers.
Henderson originally claimed
picked up the girls after they
ited him on the street. He
claimed he pulled his unloadedg
on the girls when he found out
them stealing his money.
The police confiscated a So
her handgun from his residence.

Detroit Tigers not just leading AL East
United Press International
NEW YORK — The Detroit Ti
gers, who have held a large lead in
the American League East for most
of the season, have three players
leading and another in second place
in the first weekly report on voting
for the All-Star team, the AL an
nounced Monday.
The 1984 All-Star Game will be
played on July 10 at San Francisco’s
Candlestick Park. Balloting contin
ues through June 30 at all major-and
minor-league ballparks and at thou
sands of retail stores around the
country.
Second baseman Lou Whitaker,
catcher Lance Parrish and center
fielder Chet Lemon, three-fourths
of Detroit’s potent up-the-middle
defense, are bidding for their first
All-Star starts.
The fourth defensive stalwart,
shortstop Alan Trammell, is runner-
up to last year’s AL Most Valuable
Player, Cal Ripken Jr. of Baltimore.
Whitaker’s closest pursuer is To
ronto’s Damaso Garcia, who has
helped the Blue Jays to the second-
best record in baseball. Parrish’s
main competition comes from Chi
cago’s Carlton Fisk, a seven-time All-
Star starter.
Two other leaders — California
first baseman Rod Carew and Kan
sas City third baseman George Brett
— are bidding to continue consec
utive selection strings. Carew is seek
ing his 15th in a row while Brett is
after his ninth.
Bill Buckner, traded on May 25
from the Chicago Cubs to Boston,
ranks sixth among AL first basemen.
His name appears on the National
League side of the ballot, but so as
not to deprive Buckner of votes re
ceived, his NL total and AL write-ins
are being combined.
California’s Reggie Jackson leads
the outfield vote-getting, which is
the tightest race of all. The 10-time
