News-Review June 10, 1971, i . THE NEWS-REVIEW I SPORTS Freeman ; GIBSON BOWS The St. Louis Cardinals fire-balling righthander, Bob Gibson, is on the “shelf’ for twenty-one days but not because he wanted to be or chose to be. He’s there because he was injured recently in a game between the Cards and the Atlanta Braves, and the manager placed him on the disabled list where he must remain under league rules a minimum of twenty-one days. Gibson told a reporter recently that he did not favor the decision to put him on the disabled list, for he felt it would take a few days and not three weeks to get healthy again. Unfortunately the last word did not rest with the big super star, but with Red Schoendeist, the manager. The Cardinals have been on a tear for the past week or so without the effective pitching of Gibson, with Steve Carlton and some relatively new “chunkers” giving good performances. The Red Birds have become the class of the eastern division of the National League. Our Atlanta Braves can attest to that. If Gibson can come back after twenty-one days inactive and perform like he has over the past few years, we just might see a play-off for the National League championship in the fall between the streaking San Francisco Giants and the St. Louis Cardinals that would be a series filled with big names in baseball. LANEY’S “LITTLE GENERAL” GRADUATES; LEAVES FOOTBALL BEHIND After ably performing on the gridiron for David Dupree at Lucy Laney High School, pint-size quarterback, Ricardo (Ricky) Daggett, graduated last week. With graduation, Daggett said “good bye” to football as a player. The young footballer was noted for his quick hands and deft passing as he guided the Laney Wildcats’ offensive attack for most of two seasons. Only his size is keeping him from furthering his gridiron aspirations at some college. THE BIG QUESTIONS: What’s happening to the graduating athletes at Laney and Josey this year? Is it that grants-in-aid are not given in this area? LMIWhAVE! SAVE! LIMITED CAO/ AEE INDOOR QUANTITIES QU/0 VI ■ OUTDOOR $2.99 & $3.99 Sq. yd. Rubber-back R.A.

The win kept the Cubs on top in Ogeechee League play as the Savannah entry defeated Millen in two games at Savannah. The Cubs have lost only two games this season, both coming at the hands of the strong Millen team. It is the Millen team and Savannah that pose the biggest threat to Pete Coleman’s Cubs holding on to first place in the league. Supporters of the Cubs will not get a chance to see them play again at home until Sunday, June 20 when they will play host to Savannah.

Banner Night this season for the Braves is coming up on Friday, June 25, and will include a parade of the works of art around the field between games of the Braves-Reds doubleheader. Cash prizes will be given for the best banners in the following categories: 1) SIOO goes to the Most Colorful Banner, 2) SIOO to the Most Original Banner, 3) SIOO to the banner that Best Depicts the Spirit of the Braves, and 4) S2OO goes to the Best Overall Banner. Banners in the past have included everything from painted bodies to a tepee with the pictures of the individual Braves painted on it. But no matter how it looks, any banner is fun to make, and the cash prizes awarded by the Braves on Banner Night can make the time spent in making a banner well worthwhile. What has been the most enjoyable thing about the NUMBER ONE Package Shop "PARTY PRICES" 2856 Deans Bridge Rd. "Across From Cadle's Motel" Dent Falters In Atlanta Tournament Jim Dent, Augusta’s current “contribution” to ‘ professional golfs touring professionals, made his bid to get into the spotlight last week when he played in the Atlanta Golf Classic. Being only a “hop” and a “skip” from Augusta, he no doubt wanted badly to prove that he could hold his own. After shooting a fine 68 on Thursday, the first day of the Classic, Dent lost Iris touch and shot a 75 on Friday and 76 on Saturday and Sunday. The above-seventy scores of Saturday and Sunday knocked the ex-Lucy Laney High footballer out of contention for any of the big prize money that awaited the low scorers. 1971 Braves? The answer’s easy. The play of Ralph Garr has been exciting and entertaining to everyone. A recent poll in New York revealed that the Braves were the single team that Mets fans most wanted to see this season. The reason, they said, was to see Ralph “the Road Runner” in action. They got their wish a couple of weeks ago, along with millions of other Americans on national television. Ralph responded by stealing bases the first two times he reached base and hitting a double to start a late inning rally for the Braves. The Mets finally won the game in extra innings, but nobody walked away disappointed by Ralph Garr. The recent four-hitter by big Braves righthander Tom Kelley in Montreal brought back memories of Kelley’s entry to the big leagues in 1965 with the Indians. He had just finished winning 11 consecutive games for the Portland farm club for Cleveland, and then a 19-year-old, he was considered by many as the best young pitcher in baseball. Kelley injured his pitching arm the next season, and only a self-paid-for operation enabled him to come back and sign with the Braves as a free agent last year. He proceeded to post a 7-1 record with a 2.61 ERA for the Braves’ Shreveport farm team last season. The Braves new shortstop, Zoilo Versalles, says he is back to the form that made him an American League All-Star in 1965. Zorro, as he was called in his years with the Twins, injured his back in 1968, but an operation for a slipped disc has allowed him to play easily now for the firs' time in three seasons. Maury Wills, who was Zoilo’s manager in winter league this year, says the Braves’ new acquisition can be the best shortstop in the National League right now. The date and opponent has been set for the 1971 Braves Old-Timers Game. The Braves of old are scheduled to play the best of the St. Louis Cardinals’ former stars in the contest that will take place before the regular Braves-Astros game at the Stadium on Saturday, August , 14.

This means vacation time to Mom and Dad, as well as to the youngsters. Nearly everyone has a week or two to get away from it all during the summer, and besides that there are several summer weekends that will be spent on trips. Vacations mean different things to different people, but a high percentage of Georgians see this time as the opportunity to enjoy outdoor sports, including camping, fishing and boating. Many people think first of far-away places when they think of summer vacation .. .but those with budget problems may decide this is the year to stay closer to home, forego that “dream trip” and try to salvage a good time in their home state. Well, the truth of the matter is you can visit some of the best vacation land anywhere right here in Georgia, do it on a budget, and on top of that not wear yourself out with a long trip. If camping is your thing, there’s no reason you can’t stay well within your budget anywhere in Georgia. There are plenty of fine camping spots near good fishing and boating areas. If you prefer more comfort, you still should have no problem finding motels in most areas. Hot summer weather brings to mind two particular types of vacation sites .. .mountains and seashore. Georgia has both. And there is camping available at both places. The mountains have abundant National Forest land with ample camping, and offer good trout fishing. You have a choice of improved campsites, or anything on down the line to backpacking into back country. The Appalachian Trail is a favorite of the rugged walking campers. There’s a fine campground on Jekyll Island whery you’ll be on the seashore if that’s what appeals to your taste. Here you can swim or surf j SATCHER FORD PLANTATION:' • 3510 AUGUSTA ROAD • PHONES AUGUSTA • 279-4330 AIKEN-648-4301 • • "Before You Buy, Give Us A Try”| • 2 !•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••( 1229 D’ANIGNAC ST.

WATCH THIS AD EACH WEEK FOR REAL SAVING fish, rent a boat or take your own, and fish the inland saltwater or go offshore to, for example, the Sapelo Reef. There’s no need to go to other states.. .Georgia has an abundance of saltwater fishing. Many fish camps along the coast have camping facilities. These are the two most obvious directions for the stay-at-home camper to go, but if he likes warmwater lakes, he’s missing a bet if he doesn’t consider the large reservoirs. There are lakes with good camping, boating and fishing over almost all of our state. Giving suggestions of which to visit would be much like listing a directory of all the lakes in the state. Nearly all of the lakes, of course, offer anything a boater may want. All have good fishing. And most have good camping. For example, the biggest lakes in the state are built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and have an abundance of good boat ramps, public use areas, and camping areas. A suggestion here would include such lakes as Hartwell, Walter F. George, Clark Hill and Seminole. Os course, Lanier and Allatoona are popular, but for this reason are often quite crowded. These two lakes do have much to offer. In the mountains, Lakes Burton, Blue Ridge, Chatuge and Nottely can fill the bill beautifully. Camping facilities and public boat ramps are scarce at most of the other lakes, but fishing is good. You’ll have to rely on fish camps for camping areas and ramps. Good lakes to consider include Sinclair, Jackson, and Blackshear. More details about where there are fish camps and what facilities they can supply, may be obtained by writing the Georgia Game and Fish Commission, Public Information Office, 270 Washington St., S.W., Atlanta, Georgia, and ask for the Fresh Water Fishing brochure.
