Galarraga hit a solo home in the first inning off Youmans and added a two- run single in the third to lead the Mon- treal Expos to a 5-0 National League baseball victory over the Phillies Even though he was trying to be charitable to his former teammate, Galarraga admitted that being aware of the problems Youmans has encoun- tered on the mound the last few seasons definitely helped *+He’s supposed to be a fastball pit- cher, but his fastball wasn’t very good tonight,” said Galarraga. **He has to throw a lot more sliders and change ups and he doesn’t get them over as much “When he falls behind, he has to throw you a fastball and you can sit on in.” Youmans, 1-4, did not agree with Galarraga’s assessment of things “IE thought my velocity was pretty good tonight, I just didn’t get the ball in the right spots a couple of times,” said Youmans, who was traded by Montreal during the off-season. “Anyway you can’t do anything if you don’t get any runs."” Dennis Martinez, 6-1, was the beneficiary of the Expos offensive heroics, firing a three-hitter for his first complete game and shutout of the season. He was almost flawless, striking out six, walking two and not allowing a runner past second base.

This fee represents an annual savings of $150 over tuition charges at the coastal universities. Bartsch said that NUC’s lower tuition rates are only part of the cost relief for students.
