Lolich avoids KP duty as World Series hero
Detroit pitcher Mickey Lolich, lauded for his Series wins over the Cardinals, is exempt from KP duty for a year by Michigan National Guard head Maj Gen Clarence Schnipke. He eyes postseason work in Detroit, possibly with an auto company, and will share about $11,000 from the Series plus a new car. Denny McLain eyes a $100,000 pact, while Mayo Smith’s salary likely rises from $40,000 as Tiger success continues.
