1968 - Year of the Tiger It doesn't matter f 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 theresults of the previous evening's Tiger game-minus 13 years. July 28-Orioles 5, Tigers 1 The Michigan Daily-Wednesday, July 29, 1981-Pagel11 Gridder to sacrifice career to save sister BALTIMORE (AP)-The second place Baltimore Orioles, riding the three-hit pitching of Dave McNally, easily handled the league-leading Detroit Tigers, 5-1, to cut the gap separating the two teams to 61/2 games. Frank Robinson led the Oriole assault by ripping a first inning two- run homer off losing hurler Mickey Lolich. Lolich, who was pounded for seven hits in 11/3 innings of work, lost to the Birds for the first time since May 26, 1964. He had beaten the Orioles the nine previous times he faced them.

The 17-year-old Long Island honors student, who graduated last month. from St. Paul's School in Garden City, was chosen by medical experts as the donor over his parents, Valerie and George; his brother Eric, 18 and his other sisters, Coleen, 14 and Amy, 12-all of whom volunteered a kidney, too. "I WANTED it to be me," Gregory said. "I always felt very close to Celeste, maybe because we sit together at the dinner table." "I had a good feeling_ about the operation," he said, explaining that if he were the donor, "everything would be all right." His father, George, wished it had been otherwise. "My wife and I would be happy to donate our kidneys. That would be sort of a duty," he said. "But one child doing it for another is remarkable." BRONX SUPREME Court Justice Joseph DiFide, who had to approve the action since Gregory is a minor, gave his permission Monday after a hearing at which witnesses testified that tfte transplant was necessary and that young Campbell knew what he was doing. Dr. Robert Weiss, assistant director of the Children's Kidney Center at the EinsteinDivision of Montefiore Hospital in the Bronx, said the operation,} scheduled for Wednesday at Einstein, has greater than a 90 to 96 percent chance of success. "This is an excellent, excellent tissue match," said Weiss, explaining that the only match better than two siblings would be identical twins, for whom there is a 100 percent rate of kidney transplant success. THE 5-FOOT-4 girl has suffered from kidney disease for the past five years and currently weighs 10 pounds. At one point two years ago, one doctor said she might not live more than another year. Doctors opted for the transplant operation now because her condition currently warrants either that or a dialysis machine, Weiss said. "If there's, no tra'nsplant, her other options are dialysis or death," Weiss said. After a successful kidney tran- - splant, Weis$ said Celeste would "gain weight, feel a lot better and be able to undergo normal activities." WEISS SAID the risks to Gregory as a donor are "negligible" and that he will be able to pursue swimming and baseball, sports he excelled at during high school and which he'hopes to pur- sue after entering Dartmouth College this fall. "He's just a top boy in all respects," said Dr. Claude Case, head master of TOTALS. 30 1 Baltimore 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 AB R H RBI Stanley....354 52 BufordIft......4 1 2 0 Nrthrp 367 51 88 15 Belanger,ss........... 3 1 .1 1 Matchick.. 125 it 31 3 FeRoinsonr.. 4 2 2 2 Cash ...... 215 24 45 13 Powell, lb ............. 4 0 3 2 Weet 322 30 66 10 BrRobinson,3bh...4 0 0 0 Price ...82 9 16 10 BObhnsn, 2b........ 4 0 1 0 Matthews . 36 4 7 3 Blarct........ 3 0Tracewski . 94 15 18 3 Etchebarren, c........ 3 0 0 0 Oyler ......192 13 29 1 McNally, p . 3 1 1 0 Comer ....'23 ,4 2 0 TOTALS ............ 32 5 10 5 TOTALS .. 3358 415 761 110 Campbell ... kidney donor r St. Paul's, adding that he came from a "fine Christian family and very close knit." Campbell was also captain of the football team for two years and Weiss said the doctors are not ruling out his playing that sport, adding that if Gregory could be provided with "a suitable protective device, we would like to see him continue playing foot- ball. HOWEVER, Campbell says he'll wait until after the operation to decide whether he feels "up to" a football future. "If I can't play, I can't play. It's a small sacrifice for what's going to hap- pen to Celeste," he said.
