ITEMS OFFERED FOR SALE NOT AVAILABLE TO OTHER RETAIL DEALERS OR WHOLESALERS xWE FAIVW GOLDEN RIPE DOLE BANANAS 23* Sports Old timers at bat again I or baseball Coach Bill Haywood, last Saturday was a special dav. It was the day of his annual Old Timers Game_a contest of former Western Carolina baseball players who come back and don a Catamount uniform for a true kind of fellowship and fun. Three of those former athletes are of particular interest to Catamount baseball fans. Jerry Reed, Wayne Tolleson and Rick Adair represent some of the best baseball talent ever at WCU and they are also Catamount representatives in pro baseball. All three are early in their respective careers and each has had a fair measure of success. While at the reunion each talked of their careers in baseball. "I feel like things are on schedule," says Reed, who was 11-4 with 10 saves, pitching for the Reading Phillies in the AA Eastern League. "My chances are good, but the Phillies have a lot of pitching talent in their organization and also a lot of long term contracts in the organization, so it's hard to say a lot about my future. I'll work hard though," adds Reed, who played at WCU from 1974-77, posting a 10-1 mark on the Catamounts 27-5 team in '77. Tolleson, who just completed his second season of pro ball as a shortstop in the Texas Rangers chain, hit .268 for Tulsa in the AA Texas League, views his future in the same confident, yet mature way. "I enjoy it. Playing pro ball was always my ambition. I feel I'm in a good organization to move, but I'm in it to make it to the top," says Tolleson, a former football star at WCU, now working as a graduate assistant for the Catamount football team. Tolleson in his second proseason starred at WCU from 1975-78. A Spartanburg, SC native, he led the nation in pass receiving in '77. Adair, the youngest of the trio, was the pitching ace for coach Haywood from 77-79, posting career highs in strideouts and victories. In his first summer of pro ball at Alexandria (VA) Adair posted a 6-5 record for the Seattle Mariner farm team. He has found pro ball to be a learning experience in many ways. "The transition from amateur to pro ball was something else," the Spartanburg native says. "The off field life was different and the money part of it was hard to get used to. It's really dog eat dog and it took meall season to adjust." After a rough start with a broken hand injury, Adair finished the season well. His era was around 2.50 (compared to Reed's microscopic 2.00). All three were important cogs during the great 1977 season, easily the finest in many fine seasons by coach Haywood. Tne oats iea tne nation in runs per game and, Tolleson ranked high in stolen bases. Adair was the top starter and Reed developed into a brilliant reliever after a bout with monoucleosis. It is no surprise then that they give Coach Haywood a great deal of credit in their success. "I feel that I was as strong fundamentally when I started pro ball as any pitcher in the organization," Reed says. "I really learned a lot from playing for Haywood." "I just remembered a lot he taught us," Adair adds. "I was prepared for pro ball because of Coach Haywood." Tolleson sums it up best,"Coach Haywood was a big part of my coming to WCU and getting to the pros. WCU was four of the best years in my life and the memories mean a lot." This winter Reed will go to Venezuela to pitch and Tolleson will get some more experience in Columbia also playing winter ball. Adair will continue work on his degree at Western Carolina. But Saturday Afternoon they were all Catamounts again.
