From bullpen phones to bases to the huge picture of strikeout king Nolan Ryan that graced the entrance to the ballpark, the club closed a two-day sale with a 107-item auction and tours of its new stadium. Fort Worth lawyer Jim Shaw paid $1,300 for the 20-by-25-foot pic ture of Ryan pitching. When the auctioneer asked what he was going to do with it, Shaw replied, “Build on a room to put it in." Shaw said he actually planned to give it to his brother, who owns the Fort Worth restaurant Abernathy's. “It won't fit in the (restaurant) he has right now, but he has a second one in the planning stages/' Shaw said. The most money -$5,800 -came for Ryan's locker. The prices offered on jerseys worn by such Rangers stars as Ryan, Jose Canseco and Juan Gonzalez took some collecting rookies by surprise. "We were thinking a couple hundred dollars for the jerseys/' Elsa Guajardo of Fort Worth said. “We're going to take our check and go out for dinner instead." The jersey that went cheapest was a St. Patrick's Day shirt signed by Canseco, sold for $350. A New Jersey collector paid the most — $4,400 for a jersey worn by Ryan in his final season. Harry Bryant of Cherry Hill, N.J., said he traveled to the auction from Oklahoma, where he was visiting in-laws for Thanksgiving. Bryant said he has a house full of baseball memorabilia that he collects and trades. Many fans left the auction soon after the bidding escalated into the thousands of dollars, going upstairs to buy more affordable stadium seats, bats, hats and various signs. Next door, the Rangers were giving tours of the new stadium, named “The Ballpark in Arlington." Rangers president Tom Schieffer said he was pleased by the turnout at the auction, which raised a total of $73,725 for the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation. The foundation builds youth ball fields and funds scholarships and other programs. In addition to memorabilia, the auction included meals and golf games with players, and opportunities to use the new ballpark's score- board to make a marriage proposal.

Occasionally the pieces all fit, but you didn't know why. Eventually, it became obvious. Today, you have a new set of problems and again you may find yourself getting the solutions, but not knowing exactly why. Working with Schaum's Outlines takes the guesswork out of problem solving. The Outlines provide you with the questions and the solutions in order to show you how to solve problems. The more you work with Schaums, the more obvious the solutions become. Available in engineering, math, science, economics and computer science. Look for them in your college bookstore. Schaum's Outlines m
