First Setback for Packers Coach Dan Devine
Dan Devine faced his first setback as Green Bay Packers head coach four days into training camp. Bart Starr’s reinjury shifts the offense to prospects like Zeke Bratkowski and rookie Scott Hunter, with Devine opting to rebuild from within and trade only modestly. The Packers' scoring woes last season, plus a changed receiving corps and a strong running game led by John Brockington and Donny Anderson, frame a cautious outlook as the defense stabilizes behind a rebuilt line and linebacking corps.

State Racing Commission Plans Rules
WEST MEMPHIS Ark AP The state Racing Commission decided Tuesday night to prepare new rules governing horse and dog racing in Arkansas. The commission said some old rules were obsolete and needed updating. James Black of Turrell a kennel owner who has raced dogs at Southland dog racing track in West Memphis for 13 years asked the commission to rule on whether track officials or the Racing Commission had the authority to decide if a dog owner may race his dogs at the track. He said he heard Southland officials might bar him from racing. Black said he had been barred from racing at several tracks in Florida and the Florida Racing Commission would not grant him a hearing to defend himself. Arkansas commission members told Black that his question was theoretical and the issue would be faced when and if it arose.
