Zimmer's Cub debut a success

By The Associated Press
Team manager Dom Zimmer's debut with the Chicago
Cubs was such a success that when he answered the phone in
the clubhouse afterward, he thought it was President
Ronald Reagan calling.

Manny Trillg hit a 13th-inning sacrifice fly to give the
Cubs a 10-9 National League baseball victory over the
Atlanta Braves in the season-opener Tuesday night that
included a controversial interference call against the Braves
and a record-tying seven home runs by both clubs.

“Honest, I really thought it was President Reagan
calling,” Zimmer said after the game in Atlanta.

Instead, it was Cubs’ board chairman Stanton Cook and
executive vice-president Jim Frey.

Trillo's drive to centre field scored Vance Law, who had
opened the inning with a double and was sacrificied to third
off Braves reliever, Jim Aker, the sixth Atlanta pitcher.

The Braves appeared to have won it in the ninth when
with two outs, Albert Hall singled behind second and Gerald
Perry scored after the Cubs apparently botched a rundown

Home plate umpire Bruce Foremming, however, ruled
Perry interferred on a throw from catcher Jody Davis that
struck him in the helmet and bounced toward shortstop, and
called Perry out.

MAKES CONTACT

“It was obvious to me that he (Perry) went out of his
way to make contact with the ball,” Davis said. “There was
no question about it.”

Atlanta manager Chuck Tanner said: “I thought the
game was over and we had won it. I was going out to
congratulate the guys when Froemming called Perry out.

“I argued with him, but he told me how he saw it and I
believe him. He's a good umpire.”

Kaslo fisherman
wins Dolly Derby

By CasNews Staff
It was a clear-cut case of
the one that didn’t get away
as Kaslo’s Steve Shaw reeled
in a 12-pound Dolly Varden
trout to win the $1,000 top
prize in the Dolly Derby over
the weekend.

The derby was held on
Kootenay Lake from Aril 1
4 and a total of 23 fish were
entered over the duration of

using a Lyman plug with a
three-ounce weight. The plug
was about 18-feet deep when
the fish hit.

Norm Chapdelaine of Trail
came close with his second
place catch of 11 pounds, 12
ounces. The fish was worth
$500.

Bob Harrik of Calgary
caught an 11-pound, eight-
ounce Dolly to take third
place and $250.

The seven home runs in the Atlanta game — four by the
Braves — equaled a National League record for season
openers set Monday in the New York Mets’ 10-6 victory over
the Montreal Expos before a crowd of 34,929,

Perry, Ken Oberkfell, Ozzie Virgil and Andres Thomas
homered for Atlanta while Davis, Shawon Dunston and Leon
Durham and had the Cubs’ home runs.

Astros 6 Padres

Kevin Bass pinch-hit a two-run single and Billy Hatcher
doubled in the winning run in the eighth inning, rallying
Houston over San Diego.

Mike Scott, 1-0, pitched eight innings with Dave Smith
picking up the save.

Pirates 5 Phillies 3

Darnell Coles's three-run homer highlighted a four-run
third inning that carried Pittsburgh over Philadelphia. ,

Mike Dunne pitched five 2-3 innings and earned his first
vietory with relief help from Jeff Robinson. Mike Schmidt
had his 531st career homer, putting him three behind eighth-
place Jimmy Foxx on the all-time list.

5 Giants 0

Orel Hershiser outduelled San Francisco's Kelly Downs
with a three-hitter and squeezed home a run in the sixth
inning.

Narohtbes struck out six and walked two en route to his
12th career shutout, but only his second in two years,

thletics 6 Mariners 0

Bob Welch, 15-9 last year in his finest of 10 seasons with
the Los Angeles Dodgers, pitched seven shutout innings,
yielding seven hits and striking out six in his American
League debut as Oakland defeated Seattle.

Yankees 8 Twins 0

Rick Rhoden pitched a three-hitter and Mike Pagliarulo
and Rickey Henderson homered as New York roughed up
World Series MVP Frank Viola for six earned runs before a
crowd of 55,802 at Yankee Stadium.

The Twins pulled off a triple play in the eighth inning
when Rafael Santana grounded to third with the bases
loaded. Gary Gaetti stepped on third, threw to second for
the second out and the relay to first got Santana for the third
out.

CAPS'LANGWAY
KNOWS WHAT IT
TAKES TO WIN

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Washington Capitals
defenceman Rod Langway knows what it takes to win in
the Stanley Cup playoffs.

“I've always said it and I always will, in the playoffs,
it comes down to goaltending and special teams,”
Langway said after the Capitals’ practice Tuesday. “If
you score even strength it’s a big plus. But if you have a
hot goaltender and hot special teams, you're going to go a
long way in the playoffs.”

That's good and bad news for the Capitals, who open
a best-of-seven Patrick Division semifinal series tonight
against the Philadelphia Flyers at the Capital Centre.

The Capitals will start goalie Pete Peeters, who
could become the hot goalie. He held the Flyers to two
goals in two games and two overtime periods this season.

The Flyers will counter with Ron Hextall, who had a
1.95 goals-against average in five games against the
Capitals this season.

The bad news comes with the Capitals’ power play,
which has scored just two goals in 48 power-play chances
(4.2 per cent) against Philadelphia this year. The
Washington power play clicked at a 21.8 per cent rate
against their other 21 opponents this season.

The Flyers did a little better, scoring four in 34
man-advantage situations (11.7 per cent) against
Washington. Philadelphia scored on 18.5 per cent of the
rest of their power-plays.

Philadelphia, which has advanced to the Stanley Cup
finals twice in the last three years, fell off during an

injury-riddled regular season from a 46-26-8 record a year
ago.

“We are still a confident team,” the Flyers’ Murray
Craven said earlier this week. “No matter what's
happened this year, we still think we're as good as any
team in the Patrick Division.

“They (the Capitals) have never won the division,
never gotten out of the division in the playoffs. I don't
think they're as confident as we are.”

TOCCHET HURT

The Flyers, who lost 244 games in man-power to
injuries this year, will be as close to completely healthy as
they have been all year. Thier only questionable players
will be Rick Toechet, who is on a day-to-day basis with a
shoulder injury.

The schedule will also take its toll on the two
hard-hitting Patrick Division rivals that each: finished
with 38-33-9 records.

The two play again Thursday at the Capital Centre
and, after a day off, play Saturday and Sunday at the
Spectrum.

“I think the first four games will tell the story,”
Langway said. “You don't have any time to heal. That's
the only bad thing about four games. I like four-out-of-
seven, but they could spread it out a little. When you're
playing four games in five nights you're going to have
injuries, no doubt about it.”

The Capitals wound up the regular season winning
just one of their final nine games, going 1-5-3.

During that span, Washington defeated the Flyers
5-3 and scored twice in the final seven minutes Sunday for
a 2-2 tie that gave the Capitals second place in the
division.

“I think the fact that we've played well against the
Flyers our last two outings and came back in the third
period the other night in their building we have a pretty
good feel about our match with this particular hockey
team,” Murray said.

Dunigan dream shattered

EDMONTON (CP) — His
baseball dream shattered,
quarterback-turned outfield-
er Matt Dunigan has turned
in his bat and glove with the
Montreal Expos and is ready
to return to football.

Dunigan, 27, who retired
from the CFL's Ed

“Yes, the door is open if
Matt wants to come back,”
said Eskimos’ head coach Joe
Faragalli.

LEAVES THE TEAM

Dunigan drove to his off-
season home at Dallas. after
leaving the Expos and wasn't

ilable for Bu

Eskimos last month to pur-
sue a dream to play pro-
fessional baseball, chose to
give up the game Tuesday
after learning all the Expos
could offer him was a back-up
role in their extended spring
training program.

Mike_Barnett, his agent,
talked Tuesday night about
Dunigan returning to the Es-
kimos and the club appears
willing to take him back.

“It'll be done over the next
period of time,” said Barnett.

“There's no urgency.” Bar-
nett was more worried about
the reception Dunigan might
face in Edmonton.

“Matt needs to find out
whether he'll be invited back
to the Eskimos’ camp. He's
still on the option year of his
contract, so if he plays it'll
probably have to be with
Edmonton.

“I know Matt is certainly
prepared to honor that com-
mitment if the Esks want him
back.”

There appears to be little
doubt about that.

the Expos were straightfor-
ward about their handling of
the affair.

“I think it’s best for both of
us,” said Dan Duquette,
Montreal's director of player
development. “It was not a
good spot for him to play and
develop his skills.

“His skills — hitting, run-
ning and throwing — were
fine. He just needed a lot of
work because he hadn't play-
ed and we didn’t think we'd
have the time to work with
him.”

Dunquette said the Expos
have had a strong draft each
of the last two years and the
club has a lot of young out
fielders that it wants to
spend time and money devel-
oping.

He said Dunigan is “a great
athlete. I just wish we had
gotten him into our program
when he was 20 years old. I

was really impressed with
him. He's got all the mental
qualities a winning athlete
has to have.

“I can see why he's won the
Grey Cup.”

Dunigan, who last played
baseball as an infielder in
high school nine years ago,
batted .263 (5-for-19) in lim
ited appearances over 10
games during spring train-
ing.

gar.

Harding was recognized in
the early 1970s as one of the
greatest bolt technicians
alive,

His climbing career span.
ned 25 years, from 1954
1978, and his 22-day ascent of
Yosemite's Dawn Wall in
1970, was the last of the
major bolting and drilling
epics in the valley.

The active and controver-
sial climber was much crit-

his climbing prowess pro-
vided an opportunity for
Harding to become a media
star, a challenge he took up
with much gusto.

Appearances on
Morning America became
routine, and his rise \ to
stardom culminated in a sat
