With that in mind, here are some sure bet predictions for the 1987 season: -Catfish Hunter, Bert Campaneris, and Sal Bando come out of retirement and join Reggie Jackson with the Oakland A's to see if they can recapture some of their 1970s magic. The plan backfires-Oakland wins seven games all season. -Longtime Detroit News ,sports editor Joe Falls resigns when he learns that the Boston Red Sox are going to tear down his beloved Fenway Park in order to build a new domed stadium. Falls is so heartbroken that he vows never to watch another baseball game as long as he lives. *With talks of player and umpire strikes looming in the air, the bat boys shock the baseball world with a strike of their own, demanding six-figure salaries. 'The San Diego Padres' fiery new manager Larry Bowa does not make it past the fourth inning of any game all season without being ejected. 'Calvin Schiraldi of the Red Sox cannot rebound from his subpar post-season performance last year, and at midseason finds his earned run average hovering around 50.00. Manager John McNamara finally gives up on him and sends him to the minors, never to be seen again. *Pitcher Al Nipper, also of the Red Sox, demands that Boston trade him to a National League East team so he can pursue his newfound love affair of beanballing the New York Mets' Darryl Strawberry. 'Former American League outfielder Gorman Thomas is seen playing softball at Softball City in Detroit. Gorman always looked like he belonged on a softball diamond drinking beer with the boys, didn't he?. 'San Francisco Giants' manager Roger Craig gets caught up in the music video craze and makes his own video on how to throw the split- fingered fastball. His prize pupils Mike Scott, Jack Morris, and Mike Krukow make special guest appearances. 'The Atlanta Braves' Damaso Garcia holds another one of his uniform-burning ceremonies and quits the team when he hits just .054 for the month of April. He blames his slump on manager Chuck Tanner for refusing to give up his uniform number seven, the number Garcia wore with the Toronto Blue Jays where he was a .280 hitter. 'While broadcasting NBC's game of the week, broadcaster Vin ,,Scully comes up with one of his super duper stats: "Did you know, Joe (Garagiola), that (Don) Mattingly bats .567 on Saturday afternoons against righthanded pitchers with mustaches on fields with natural grass when at least 35,000 people are in the stands, and he's had pancakes for breakfast." Uh, yeah. 'Finally, the Cleveland crse continues when the Indians lose in the American League playoffs to the Texas Rangers in extra innings of the seventh game. This coupled with the Browns' loss to Denver in the NFL's AFC championship game last season causes Clevelanders to lose all hope of ever winning a championship-in anything. The heat is on. This summer may be your last chance to graduate from college with a degree and an officer's commission. Sign up for ROTC's six-week Basic Camp now. See your Professor of Military Science for details. But hurry. The time is short. The space is limited. The heat is on. BE ALL YOU CAN BE. ARMY RESERVE (FFICERS' TRAINING CORPS By IAN RATNER After a season of tremendous adversity, four Michigan wrestlers have an opportunity to go out in a blaze of glory or simply flicker out at the NCAA nationals this weekend in College Park, Maryland. Doug Wyland, John Fisher, Joe Pantaleo, and Mike Amine qualified for the nationals in the Big Ten tournament two weekends ago in Madison. Iowa captured the Big Ten crown and will be seeking a record tenth consecutive NCAA title. In college sports, only Yale's golf team has been so prolific, also winning nine straight national titles. Although winning the national championship is an impossibility for the team, gaining All-American status and placing in the top ten remains within reach for the four Wolverine participants. "We've got some guys who can do something here," said head coach Dale Bahr. "If we get three All- Americans then we can finish real high." Here's a look at Michigan's four competitors: -With the effects of mononucleosis lingering, sophomore Doug Wyland still managed to qualify for the nationals at 118 pounds with a third-place finish at the Big Ten tournament. His 26-4 record and top ten ranking make him a legitimate threat for the 118 pound title. "Doug's feeling better than he did at the Big Ten's," said Bahr. "He looked and acted real tired before the Big Ten's. He's a lot spunkier this week and a lot more positive." Wyland qualified for the nationals last year and was named "Best Freshman" by Amateur Wrestling News . He won one match at last year's championships, but he has his sights on more lofty achievements this time around. Wyland's biggest obstacle is North Carolina's Al Palaces, the tournament's only undefeated wrestler(40-0). -John Fisher returns to the nationals after missing last year's event with a shoulder injury. The redshirt sophomore, wrestling at 134 pounds, was named the nation's most outstanding freshman as he took third in the Big Ten's and fourth in the NCAAs during his freshman campaign. Fisher has been a terror on the mats this season, going undefeated since December and cruising to a Big Ten title. Sporting a 34-3 record and number three national ranking, Fisher is primed to win it all this weekend. -Joe Pantaleo, frustrated by a third place finish in the Big Ten's, would like nothing better than to make amends this weekend at College Park. The 158 pound sophomore heads into the tournament with a 37-6-1 record. -Mike Amine (167 pounds) failed to qualify for the NCAAs as one of the top four seeds at the Big Ten's, but a strong showing in the league's toughest weight division earned him a wild card berth as selected by the conference coaches. Said Amine, "I'm going to take it one match at a time. But I'll be shooting for an All-American ranking, a finish in the top five."

UNIVERSITY (2nd Floor) Located at: S. STATE & N. UNIVERSITY Hayes remembered by lBoamu COLUMBUS (AP)- Woody Hayes was remembered as both a fierce competitor and a man of compassion yesterday at a memorial service on the field where he coached Ohio State University's football team for 28 years. A crowd estimated at 15,000 heard tributes by Hayes' only son, Steven; his successor at Ohio State, Earle Bruce; his fiercest coaching rival, Michigan coach Bo Schembechler; former players, and university officials. HAYES, who won 205 games at Ohio State, more than any coach in the university's history, died at 1l others age 74 of a heart attack last Thursday at his suburban Columbus home. S Schembechler, who played for Hayes at Miami of Ohio and assisted him at Ohio State before becoming coach at the University of Michigan, said the Ohio State- Michigan rivalry enhanced the friendship of the two men. "When you know you're competing against the best...no matter how fierce the competition gets, it just brings you closer together," he said. He said Hayes, "was the greatest football coach the (Big Ten) Conference ever had ."
