CHICAGO (AP) — Baseballs and
jerseys are a dime a dozen, but
here is something most sports fans
do not have: a wooden leg.
Next month, a Chicago auction
house plans to auction off former
Chicago White Sox owner Bill
Veeck’s wooden prosthesis, the
Chicago Sun-Times reported Tues
day.
Veeck had given the wooden leg
to a Chicago bar after having a new
prosthesis made. He signed it: “To
Rich. Can’t beat the mileage. Hope
it fits. 2-23-77. Bill Veeck."
Veeck died in 1986.

November edition.
“It’s like, all of a sudden you look
at this person who knows you, who
you feel safe with, and you say, ‘ Wait
a minute, I’ve been thinking about
sharing my life with someone who re
ally knows me and here he is.’”
Dem said she was hurt by rumors
that she and Thornton, 44, were in
volved before his divorce from his
fourth wife, who alleged abuse.
“They said Billy and I were dating
when we had just met at a Miramax
party. I think I said, M really liked Sling
Blade, [for which Thornton won a
screenwriting Oscar in 1997] and the
tabloids portrayed it as, ‘Honey, I’ll
meet you in the car.”

CROSBY
COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — Author
William Least Heat-Moon, a.k.a Will
Trogdon, is in a tiff with a boat oper
ator after he crashed while being
filmed by “CBS Sunday Morning.”
Trogdon lost control of one boat
on the Missouri River and rammed a
second boat with the camera crew
aboard last week.
“His boat starts swinging back
and forth, he hits the throttle and
lurches the boat forward into the
back end of my boat, running up
alongside and scraping the side,”
Mike Ruh, who rented both boats to
CBS for the interview, said.
Trogdon says the crash wasn’t his
fault. He says the other boat’s wake
broke the throttle and caused the
boat to speed up.
