WHO WEARS MARINE CORPS RESERVE HELMETS

SOME OF THE FINEST
The face under a Marine
Reserve helmet could be that
of a lawyer, a mechanic, a
college student, accountant Dr
school teacher. It is the face
of a man committed to his
own life, his job, his dreams.
He is a perfectly solid citizen
who likes his golf game or
Friday night bowling and
who could easily have found
something else to do during
the two weeks of Annual
Training Duty. Why is he
trooping up and down hills
under a full battle pack? Why
did he choose the Marine
Corps and its hard working
Reserve?
There are thousands of
answers to the question —but
the common denominator of
them all would probably go
like this: There's something
bigger I feel I have to do, for
myself, my family—for every-
thing that means something
to me. And if I'm going to do
it, I'll do it well.

NEW YORK - Yogi Berra got
the ultimate in tributes from
some of the New York Mets.
Some of the players felt worse
than he did about being fired as
manager.
Second baseman Felix Millan
said: “Yogi is the kind of person
you give 200 per cent for. I
enjoyed playing with him. I’ll
miss him.”
Reserve outfielder Jesus Alou
commented: “I’ve played for a
lot of men and he was the
nicest.”
Relief pitcher Rick Baldwin
told Berra: “I appreciate
everything you did for me.”
Berra was fired and replaced
by Roy McMillan. Yogi went to
Shea Stadium today to say
goodbye to the players.
However, since his contract
runs through the 1976 season, he
may stay with the team in some
capacity.
He managed a joke about
that, saying “maybe they’ll
have me sweeping out the
clubhouse.”
cerned, Preston Gomez is still
the manager.”

CLEVELAND - One of the
hottest hitters in baseball is
Rico Carty of the Cleveland
Indians. In his last 64 times at
bat, he has hit safely 27 times
for a .422 average. Most of it has
been done as a designated
hitter. Asked about that, Carty
said “It keeps you thinking too
much sometimes. It’s good for
baseball but it can mess up
hitters. If you are in a slump it
helps, however. It does make
you think about hitting all the
time you are there.”
INDIANAPOLIS - The
makeup of the women’s
wightman cup team was an-

He says he plans to settle
