Clemente defends himself against critics as a complainer
Roberto Clemente dismisses critics who call him a chronic complainer. He cites nervous stomach and malaria as past illnesses that sparked skepticism, insists he speaks only from felt trouble, and notes his .309 career average while focusing on helping teammates Don Clendenon and Willie Stargell behind him. He earns over $65,000 a year and rarely lets home runs define him.

NCAA Championship Quintet Usually Lacks Superstar
In College Park at Cole Field House the NCAA final four weekend highlights a trend toward balanced teams over single stars. Cazzie Russell of Michigan, named Player of the Year, fell short as his Wolverines lost in the Mideast regionals to Kentucky 84-77, a result that keeps the pattern intact. Kentucky, led by cohesive play and no first team All-America, may represent the last of the balanced champions before John Wooden unveils Lew Alcindor at UCLA for the coming era.
