The Augusta News-Review - January 23, 1975 -
Astrology ,
For the Remainder of the Month:
ARIES (March2l—April 20) You may be making big plans and be
quite boastful about what you are going to do. You should keep
plans confined closely and not talk of them in public. Things have
away of bouncing around once you’ve spoke them. There can be
lots of gossip about you and not a thing you can do about it once
it starts.
TAURUS (April 21-May 20) Someone who corresponds with
you may have things to say that you don’t want to hear. This
person can be angry due to some omission of yours during a trip
you took recently. This may be a small matter such as neglecting
to send a card. Ignore the whole thing.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21) You may have a heart-to-heart talk
with an exective and find yourself due for a raise. There can be a
change in the family, too, possibly a teenager getting married. It
may not be exactly a happy wedding where you are concerned.
CANCER (June 22-July 22) A new neighbor may make friends
with you, but it can be largely for the purpose of borrowing,
having you babysit and the like. Just don’t encourage this person
at all. Right from the start say “no” very firmly.
LEO (July 23-August 23) You will perk up a lot now and go
avidly into clothes buying. You enjoy looking your best at all
times and that’s what you'll aim for now. You may have quite a
conversation with an executive who values you. This may lead to
promise of a promotion during the Spring. You may be sure this
will be honored.
VIRGO (August 24—September 22) You may be invited out to a
splendid dinner by people you admire immensely. Be friendly and
sociable with other guests who may be there and don’t be jealous.
Show your gratitude in some special way.
LIBRA (September 23-October 22) Do not tolerate interfering
obstacles which get on your nerves and keep you from doing your
best work. If you have a pet that is too noisy, find a special place
to put it while you are engaged in work. Buy clothes if you find
good bargains; make something yourself.
SCORPIO (October 23—November 22) This is a good time to
travel to discuss major subjects with those who know them well,
to learn more about spiritual matters, and perhaps to take up
learning to use occult powers more fully. You’re busy but happy
about all this.
SAGITTARIUS (November 23-December 21) Buy clothes, give a
big party, enjoy a crowd of teenagers, but do not go in for
romance. If married, it goes without saying that you must be
truly faithful. Do not try to interfere with anyone else’s marriage,
either, even though you think it is ready to break up.
CAPRICORN (December 22-January 20) Letters and telephone
calls can come by the dozen. You may begin to see that you
really cannot escape as you thought you might. Try to make the
best of everything and be able to laugh at yourself a little. You’re
in quite a stew but you’ll get through it and find some optimistic
way of looking at things which you didn’t choose.
AQUARIUS (January 21-February 19) You may become highly
temperamental and say things to a friend that are all wrong. In
romantic matters you can find yourself a highly chosen one. But
ask some questions and you may begin to wonder just what this
all means. Go slow in romance.
PISCES (February 20-March 20) You feel on the verge of
discovering something. You have a certain potential for being
“cool” and you want that in a lifemate.

Lou Brock
Black Baseball Star
Asks For $ 400,000
St. Louis Globe-Democrat
By Jack Herman
Lou Brock soon will become
the highest-salaried Cardinal
player in history.
Baseball’s base-stealing king
is expected to ask management
for a two-year, $400,000
contract when serious
negotiations begin. At least,
Brock has been advised to seek
such a document.
Generally considered the
most exciting performer in the
industry, Brock relies on the
judgement of three close
business associates: agent Jack
Childers of Chicago, St. Louis
attorney Gerhard Petzall and
financial advisor Don Goddes
of New York.
“I c:n only recommend,”
Childers informed The
Globe-Democrat Jan. 17th. “I
really believe Lou has earned
this kind of contract.”
Ir the absence of Cardinal
general manager Bing Devine,
assistant G.M. Jim Toomey
said: “I Don’t think there’s a
problem. Lou has been out of
town. So has Bing.”
Only one preliminary
meeting has been held,
according to Childers, who
added: “Petzall agrees with me
on a two-year contract.”
Should Brock be tendered a
long-term pact, he’d join the
exclusive Cardinal ranks of
Stan Musial, Ken Boyer, Steve
Carlton and Joe Torre.
Film Series To Be Shown

Augusta and St. John Towers

Pitching superstar Bob
Gibson is No. 1 in the club’s
dollar derby at approximately
$160,000.
But Gibson, following his
11-13 record last season, may
fall off somewhat while Brock
improves his estimated
$120,000 salary.
Largely because of Brock’s
118-theft heroics - and the
club’s spirited run at the
National League East title -
the Red Birds drew 1,838,000
through Busch Stadium
turnstiles.
A source close to the club
questioned the propriety of an
SBO,OOO boost in pay, even for
a play of Brock’s stature.
“In this area,” explained
Childers, who represents such
notables as Gibson and Brock,
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Phil
Esposito, George Allen, Fran
Tarkenton and Carl
Yastrzemski, “I can only give
advice.”
“Lou will ask: ’What do you
think? And then will make up
his own mind. He’s an
excellent negotiator, you
know,” said Childers.
On the basis of his 11
seasons with the Red Birds,
Brock has produced plenty of
ammunition at contract time.
However, his off-field income
is said to equal or exceed his
baseball salary.
Brock was in Florida on
will be shown weekly at St.
John Towers, Ervin Towers,
Peabody, and Hal Powell.
Faculty members from
Augusta College will lead a
discussion following each film.
Lonnie Hamilton, director
of Scoial Services for the
Hosuing Authority, is directing
the series. Dr. Creighton.Peden
presents programs for
pre-school children of listening
age. Pre-school story hours are
scheduled at the Wallace
Branch, 1237 Gwinnett Street,
on Mondays through Fridays at
10 a.m. and at 11 a.m. At

“He’s on the banquet
circuit,” declared Childers.
“He’s one of the few players
who thrive on the constant
travel. He’ll also participate in
the Super Stars Show later this
month in Rotonda (Fla.)”
Brock and Steve Garvey of
the Los Angeles Dodgers, who
edged the Cardinal left-fielder
for the Most Valuable Player
trophy, are in the Super Stars
field.
Childers, of course, views
the salary situation from his
client’s point of view.
“I feel it’s very good for a
team that a player can earn a
big raise,” he said. “It provides
a strong incentive for all
players to do well and reach
that level.”
In addition to Brock’s think
of running wild on the bases,
the 35-year-old veteran has
improved defensively and
always hit effectively. He also
broke Maury Wills’ 12-year-old
record of 104 thefts in only
149 games.
Wills needed 16S games.
Brock now is the league’s top
dog in base-stealing with 753
thefts. Only Ty Cobb, at 892
(in the modem era), is ahead of
Brock.
“Brock deserves anything he
can get,” added Childers.
That’s the agent speaking,
Bing.

coordinating the program.
