Southwest Parkway - The Bryan Police De
partment broadcast a radio message for all
local police departments to be on the look
out for a gray one-ton CMC truck occupied
by three individuals who were suspects in
an investigation of gunshots being fired at a
Bryan club. A University Police Depart
ment officer observed the suspect vehicle
on Wellborn Road. With the assistance of
another officer, the vehicle was stopped
and the subjects arrested following the re
covery of a loaded RG .22 caliber revolver
in the vehicle. The driver was charged with
unlawfully carrying a firearm and the pas
senger with public intoxication.

System Loop in Research Park. The letters
T, A, M and S were not recovered.
Criminal Mischief

more interested when boxes with
Sherrill written on the sides were
brought out for auctioning.
le auctioneer brought a shirt
out of a box and I could
see 'ett" on it," he said. "I wasn't
sure it was Dorsett's, but I wanted
to bid for it anyway."
Out of about 200 people at
tending the auction', Kelly said
only one other person competed
seriously for the box, and Kelly
won the shirts with a $45 bid.
Kelly had the shirts appraised
by Mark Jordan of Professional
Sports Appraisers in Bedford,
Texas, at $600 to $1,000 each.
"Jordan curbed down the value
because there were no outward
signs of game wear," Kelly said.
"There are no holes, stitching or
tears, but the lettering is faded,
which probably means they have
been washed. (Jordan) said he
also found a small grass stain."
Kelly, an avid collector of
sports memorabilia, said he is not
interested in selling the jerseys at
this time because they are a piece
of American sports history, but he
will keep the letters of authentici
ty-
"I'll keep the letters proving
the value in case I ever do want to
sell them," he said. "For now.
I'll probably keep them in a safe
ty deposit box."
Kelly said he first began col
lecting sports memorabilia when
working at a toy store. He began
in sports cards but switched over
to plastic figures of starting lineup
players.
"Money is definitely a motiva
tor for collecting," he said. "I
"At first I thought I
wouldn't want to keep
(the jerseys) if they
are special to (Sher
rill), but I look at it as
he stiffed these peo
ple in this small com
pany. I don't feel too
bad for him." ‘
-Patrick Kelley
spend six or seven dollars and
one year later they are worth as
much as seventy dollars."
To learn more about the histo
ry of the jerseys, Kelly said he has
mailed a letter to Sherrill.
At first Kelly' believed the jer
seys were not important to Sher
rill because he left them in a stor
age space in which he failed to
pay rent. But now, he is not so
sure.
"The more I think about it,
there has to be something to these
jerseys," he said. "Why would
Sherrill carry them around for 17
years if there wasn't."
Kelly said he did not know
what he would do if Sherrill said
the jerseys were important to him.
"At first I thoughj, ^ wouldn't
want to keep them if they are spe
cial to him, but I look-at it as he
stiffed these people in this small
company," he said. "I don't feel
too bad for him."
There was nothing else of val
ue was in the box, and this is how
auctions usually work, Kelly said.
"You never really' know what
you are going to find; it's mostly
junk," he said. "You stand
around for four or five hours, and
sometimes you get lucky."
