Several Tiger players
unhappy with strike

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) -
Several members of the Detroit Tigers
reportedly are unhappy about how the
current baseball strike is being conduc-
ted and feel they have not been con-
sulted enough by their team's player
representative.
Champ Summers, a Tiger outfielder
who left Monday for business dealings
in Arizona, said both sides should "bend
a little" in the negotiations.
"I WISH I could afford this, but I
don't want anyone playing chess with
my money," Summers told The Grand
Rapids Press. Summers, a 33-year-old
i outfielder, said he would not object to
surrendering service time, one major
obstacle in the talks.
"Service time does not hurt me," he
told the newspaper Monday. "I won't be
a martyr and give up $200,000 so Steve,
Kemp can become a free agent."
Kemp, another Tiger outfielder and,
the team's alternate player represen-
tative, said he had no bad feelings about
Summers' sentiments.
"HE WANTS to put food on his table,
but it's too bad he thinks this deals with
me because there are a lot of people
concerned," said Kemp in a telephone
interview from his Laguna Niguel,
Calif. home.
Kemp said he has not been contacted
by the team's player representative,
Milt Wilcox.
"I don't know. why Milt hasn't called
and why Phil Garrrer (player represen-
tative for the Pittsburgh Pirates)
knows exactly what's going on," Kemp
said. "I just talked to Jason Thompson
and he said Garner is polling all the
Pirate players to see if they're willing
to strike the whole season.
"JASON SAID Garner told him the
situation is not good. Maybe a few

players are willing to give up
everything they have. I'd have to file
for bankruptcy and start over. I could
lead a normal life, but I'd have to give
up a lot of things."
Pitcher Dan Schatzeder, contacted in
his home in Aurora, Colo., said he felt
the 650 players have not had sufficient
involvement in the negotiations.
"Every time something is said, they
talk about how this affects the 'big
boys'," Schatzeder said. "Reggie
Jackson has his Panasonics, but the
majority of players haven't had enough
of a voice.
"MILT HASN'T called me. We're not
getting feedback and if our player reps
don't know how we feel, then Marvin
Miller doesn't know."
Outfielder Lynn Jones said the strike
is a "matter of principle or money, and
money is a sacrifice people have to ac-
cept."
"The only thing we did wrong is paint
ourselves into a corner so we had to
strike," Jones said. "We should have
been more strategical, but things were
overlooked." He did not say what things
had been overlooked. -
SUMMERS SAID the owners were
using "stall tactics" and "propaganda"
while collecting their insurance
payments for the lost games.
"The owners definitely want to break
us down," Summers said. "I'm afraid
that ifa poll was taken, half the players
would break down. That would show
weakness. I don't believe three-fourths
of them know what's going on."
The strike started June 12 over the
inability of the players and the owners
to reach agreement on how a team
losing a top-quality player to free agen-
cy should be compensated.

1968 - Year of the Tiger
It doesn't matter if you side with the players or the owners in the
current baseball strike, there is one thing that everyone agrees on-it is
an unfortunate situation. So in order to partially relieve the misery of
any baseball junkies going through withdrawal, throughout the
duration of the strike the Daily is providing a look back to a more
pleasant time-1968. There was no free agent compensation, no
NLRB, no court injunctions-and no strike. And for those of you
who don't remember, in 1968 the Tigers were winners, World Series
winners, in fact. Each day the Daily relates the results of the previous
evening's Tiger game-minus 13 years.

DETROIT (UPI) - The incredible
shrinking man was nothing com-
pared to what happened to the
Tiger's American League lead since
the All-Star break.
The Tigers' lead, which stood at
nine and one-half games as recently
as 10 days ago, was cut to five and
one-half today as skidding Detroit
dropped two to the fast moving
Baltimore Orioles by scores of 5-2
and 4-1.
BOTH BALTIMORE and
Cleveland which split two with the
New York Yankees, occupy second
place and the two play a three-game
set which starts tonight.
Pesky Dave Johnson, who must be
batting about .946 against Detroit
pitching, cracked five hits in the two
games and drove in three besides
scoring three times himself.
The Baltimore, second baseman
got his team off to a flying start
against Earl Wilson, pitching on a
two-day rest, in the first game when
he singled and scored on Larry
Haney's double.
A DOUBLE by Mark Belanger and
a single by Frank Robinson made it
2-0 in the fourth before Tom Mat-
chick, the hero of Friday's 5-4 win,
stroked a home run with Bill
Freehan on base to knot the game in
the fifth.

HOOK TWO RECRUITS:
* Harriers look to top
By JOE CHAPELLE
Daily sports writer
Michigan's cross country team looks at the 1981 season very optimistically. With
a group of excellent, new recruits, coach Ron Warhurst predicts that the
Wolverines should finish in the top three of the Big Ten.
Two entering freshmen particularly stand out as excellent additions to the
harrier squad. Carl Allen, from Ann Arbor's Huron High and a runner-up at the
state cross country championships last year, will join Bill Brady from Mt.
Clemens, last year's state champion, on the 1981 team.
"IT'S HARD TO say how they will do. That depends on their experience. It's
hard to go up against the experienced runners," said Warhurst.
Allen and Brady will be running with some of the Big Ten's best this season. Ac-
cording to Warhurst, Brian Diemer, an experienced harrier, is one of the top can-
didates to win the Big Ten Championship this year. Gerard Donakowski, who was
hurt last season but ran well during the Wolverine track season, should also
provide the Michigan harriers with leadership.
Dan Beck and Bill O'Reilly both ran well with the Wolverine track team and
should be two more of the Wolverines' top runners this year.
Steve Brant and Dan Heikkinen, another Wolverine track standout, should also
perform well for the harriers.
Warhurst points out that a nucleus of four funners, Donakowski, Diemer, Beck,
and O'Reilly, should provide the cutting edge for the Wolverines and put them in
contention for the Big Ten cross country championship along with Indiana, Illinois,
and Wisconsin.
With all the talent that the Wolverines already have, however, the new freshmen
should not be discounted. Both Allen and Brady come to Michigan with excellent
i credentials. Warhurst points out that, at first, he thought Diemer would not be one
of the team's top runners during his freshman year. "I told him to give it a shot,"
said Warhurst. "I gave up telling kids that (at first it might be very difficult to
compete with older, more experienced college runners) years ago."
