“I don’t know whether he bumped me
or I bumped him," said Merrill, who
said the foot of New York’s Chris
Chambliss was not on the bag when the
relay arrived.
There was an argument; that might
have been most normal of all. Umpire
Durwood Merrill called Minnesota's
Rich Chiles safe at first on what seemed
to be the back half of an inningending
double play in the fifth. Figueroa,
enraged, charged the umpire and
bumped him twice.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -
Okay men! Start planning
ahead if you want to marry an
attractive young lady whose
quick stardom on the women's
pro golf tour has produced a
bank account that could help
insure financial stability
“I think I'm just like any oth-
er girl my age. I want to get
married and have children,”
said Nancy Lopes, the 21-year-
old rookie whose record five
consecutive victories this year
shot the popularity of women’s
golf to its highest level in his-
tory.

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (AP) - The
law, according to Billy Martin, was
neatly typed on 3% pages of New York
Yankees letterhead and placed in each
cubicle of the team’s dressing room at
Metropolitan Stadium.
Rules governing “1) personal ap-
pearance, 2) personal conduct off the
field, and 3) conformance with team
requirements for reporting, travel and
lodging" awaited the team after a 2-0
victory over the Minnesota Twins
Wednesday night.
Included in the text were specifics of
the team curfew, “1 a.m., except after
night gam.es," and a prohibition of
group card games after curfew — at the
risk of a 3100 fine per participant.
Martin said the memo was not an
attempt to create stricter team
discipline. “No," he said, “The rules
just have to be spelled out in case the
players have a grievance and go to the
competitively for 15 more
years
“I don’t think I’ve reached
my peak,” she said. “And I
don’t know when I will. I try not
to think too far ahead. I find I'm
getting a lot older quicker than I
like."
Success on the golf tour is
bringing additional rewards
and making additional demands
on the spare time of Lopez, who
hopes to improve on last year's
runner-up finish In the Open in
her final tournament as a
rookie.
“I’ve learned to say ‘no’ when
I feel something interferes with
my golf," continued Lopez.

“I was over there (Scotland)
preparing a week before the
British Open," said Weiskopf,
who finished tied for 17th at St.
Andrews. “And usually after I
come back it takes a week to be
myself.”

"It's not in my immediate
plans,” said Lopez as she pre-
pared for today's opening of the
26th Women’s US. Open Cham-
pionship at the Country Cub of
Indianapolis, “but hopefully
within the next four years I’ll
get married.
“I wouldn't want to have my
husband and children following
the tour like some families,"
she said. “I’d like to have them
at home and spend a lot of time
with them."
But she doesn't plan to leave

rules out so that everybody knows what
they are."
Martin already has made one rule
very clear: “All I ask of a player is that
he hustles and obeys orders. They’ll
never have trouble with me if they do
that.”
That statement appeared aimed at
the ears of Reggie Jackson, who
reportedly spent the second day of an
enforced five-day exile with friends in
San Diego. Martin suspended the
controversial slugger without pay late
Monday night for bunting - ignoring
orders to swing away — during New
York’s 9-7 loss to Kansas City.
"His lawyer has been notified, and he
(Jackson) has been notified, by
registered mail, that we expect him in

not to expect him to be in Chicago

Manager Cedrick Tallis. “We don’t

There was a mild return to normalcy
Wednesday night. Right-hander Ed
Figueroa pitched a six-hitter for his
first victory since June 13, and was
supported with RBI singles by Thur-

third time In 12 games.

IRVINE, Calif. (AP) -
Dallas Cowboy rookies fell to
San Diego in a controlled
scrimmage Wednesday, but
Cowboy Coach Tom Landry
found a few things to smile
about anyway.
Landry’s youngsters lost,
four touchdowns to three, but
he pointed out that San Diego
had more veterans in camp
and participating. “But we
had a lot of people bustling
and hitting so it was a good
evaluation overall,” Landry
said.
“Actually, working
against more veterans gives
our rookies a chance to have
a little bit better
evaluation,” said Landry.
“I've said all along that
the squeeze is on the rookies
with the veterans’ later
reporting date and the
shorter preseason
schedule."
Dallas scores came on a
40-yard interception return
by linebacker Harold
Randoph a 58-yard pass from
quarterback Glenn Carano

Christensen rushed for 42

caught three passes for 27

“He’s an excellent
