C Veterans settle for pay cut
Salary cap forces teams to reduce pay to players
' CARLISLE, Pa. (AP) — For
Washington Redskins linebackers
Kurt Gouveia and Monte Cole
man the choice was between a
pay cut or a final cut.
“We make a lot of money, and I
feel blessed to have an opportuni
ty to come out and play,” Coleman
said. “Even with the pay cut, I
feel blessed.”
Coleman tied for the team lead
with six sacks and two fumble re
coveries last year, his 15th with
the team. He has played in four
Super Bowls and on three cham
pionship teams.
He is also 36 years old and last
month accepted a cut in his
salary, from $525,000 to
$400,000.
“I’ve got five kids and I’ve got a
wife, that’s why I do it,” Coleman

said. “It’s a pride thing. As you
look around the league now,
there’s a lot of players, all-pros,
that are making less money than
I’m making. That didn’t hinder or
help my decision, but this league
has changed.”
Gouveia, an eight-year veter
an, led the team in tackles the
last two years. He has been in
jured frequently and plans call for
him to share time at middle line
backer.
Gouveia’s $1.02 million salary
made him an expensive addition
under the salary cap. He was re
leased in late June but resigned
July 5 for $500,000.
Safety Brad Edwards is the
latest Redskin to leave rather
than accept a pay cut. Others who
quit over money are Art Monk,
Charles Mann and Mark Rypien.
Some in the league have swal
lowed their pride for the chance to
keep playing.
Arizona Cardinals defensive
back Chuck Cecil was to make
$1.2 million but was cut to
$350,000. Eric Bieniemy, a run
ning back with the San Diego
Chargers, was lowered from
$377,000 to $250,000. And former
Redskin wide receiver Gary
Clark, now with Arizona, took a
30 percent salary cut to $915,000.
The kick's away and it's good!
Former Texas A&M place-kicker Terry Venetoulias attempts a 55-yard kick while his brother
Manoli holds. The kick was good. Venetoulias, who graduated last year, was practicing with
his brother, who will be a freshman at A&M this fall and is hopeful for his older brother’s vacat
ed position.

‘88 it was a big success,” said Pat-
tie Sears, of the Convention and
Visitors Bureau. “We bid for it
again and got it.”
Steve Beachy, of the College
Station Parks and Recreation De
partment, said the Games also
gives the community the chance
to show people it is not just an
other college town.
“It gives the opportunity for
many people who have never
been here to see that it’s not just
another small college town,”
Beachy said. “It gives us a
chance to show the community
off.”
The event organizers will use
volunteers from around the area
to help orchestrate the events.
Approximately 1,500 volunteers
will serve over the three days of
the Games. Sears said it was
nice to have so much support.
“It’s a big community effort,”
Sears said. “It’s neat to see
everyone out there and helping to
get this done.”

Switzer
Continued from Page 3
FVetty soon it goes away.
“The players have been
great. They’ve been working
very hard and I feel comfortable
being back in the game again.”
Switzer said all the contro
versy that surrounded his hir
ing by owner Jerry Jones will
go away if the team wins.
Switzer hasn’t coached in five
years since he was forced to re
tire at Oklahoma, where he
won two national champi
onships.
“Winning takes care of
everything,” Switzer said. “I
know I’ve really missed the
game, being around the play
ers. It’s good to be back.”
Switzer spent the first part
of training camp evaluating the
players, particularly the defen
sive line, where some young
sters must come through.
Hall of Famers getting fewer
Players from 1 920s, 30s see changes in the game
UNDATED - Only a dozen
members of the Baseball Hall
of Fame who played in the
1920s and ’30s are still alive
and, as one of them wryly ob
serves, they’re getting closer
to end of the bench.
Bill Dickey died last fall,
Ray Dandridge early this year.
Ted Williams is recovering
from a second stroke. Early
Wynn, Buck Leonard and Lou
Boudreau are ailing, too.
Rick Ferrell is plugging
along nicely at 88 in Detroit,
as is A1 Lopez at 85 in Tampa.
Joe DiMaggio still loves to go
to the race track in Florida
and keep to himself. Bobby
Doerr lives comfortably on a
farm in Oregon, Enos Slaugh
ter on his farm in North Car
olina. Monte Irvin is doing
fine in Florida, Red Schoendi-
enst in Missouri, and Bob
Feller can often be found at
Cleveland Indians games.
They are a trove of wonder
ful stories, and when they are
gone a significant part of
American sports history will
disappear. As three new mem
bers of the Hall of Fame await
induction Sunday — Steve
Carlton, Phil Rizzuto and the
late Leo Durocher — some of
those who preceded them
spoke about the way baseball
was when every game was
played on grass and every
team rode the rails.
