Officials including Bowie Kuhn and league presidents seek to fix loopholes before playoffs. Managers LaRussa and Herzog state they would forfeit games if it boosted playoff chances.

Catlett Sees Little Trouble With Schaus As AD
Morgantown AP West Virginia coach Gale Catlett said he had little input in hiring Fred Schaus as athletic director and expects few problems working with his former coach. Catlett noted he would support whomever was chosen and recalled past feuds with a previous AD. He spoke after returning from a month long Australia trip where he viewed WVU’s 104 game stay and analyzed the team’s prospects for the upcoming season. He believes WVU could be a pretty good team if players sacrifice, train hard, and newcomers boost the squad, though several individuals may not commit.
