common sense dictates that long hair on a man is a disgrace, let’s stop compromising our common sense byallowing it,” Simpson said A good hair code will get the abnormal* out of athletics before they become coaches and bring their ‘losers’ standards into the coaching profession.”Simpson's article in “Texas Coach, the official publication of the Texas High School Coaches’ Association, came within weeks of an association decision to ban long hair on participants in its annual high school football and basketball all-star games.Two Houston athletes, including the most sought after prep basketball player in Texas— Eddie Owens of Houston Wheatley—said they'd boycott the games before they’d trimback their sideburns and Afros. “Whv do many coachesfir wrationalize and compromise their norms and standards of good grooming habits and ailowthemselves to be personally represented by males that look like females’’ Simpson wrote A male with long hair is a sign of rejection of authority— his own authority over himselfwas well as the authority of the laws of the establishment,” he said “Under the laws of the establishment, God designed the male to dominate the woman just as He designed Christ to dominate man.”Simpson said the Bible in-NEW YORK (UPI) The turf world wondered today if Secretariat’s lopsided victories in the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness would turn the 105th running of the Belmont Stakes on June 9 into a “walkover.”That is highly unlikely in these days of big purses With only two starters, second place in the l'a mile classic would be worth about $32,000.Although the race is three weeks away, Secretariat al ready is a l-to-10 favorite to complete his sweep of the Triple Crown classics and become only the ninth horse in history to win the Kentucky Derby, thePreakness and the Belmont Stakes.“I have no idea how many horses will start in the Belmont.” said trainer Lucien Laurin. indicating he really didn’t care His darling was back on home grounds at Belmont Park, safe, sound and ready to run again, after a triumphal road showThe big, handsome, muscular colt toured Kentucky and Maryland, smashing the 1Gmile track record at Churchill Downs and probably lowering the 1 3-16 mile record in winning the Preakness Stakes at Pimlicoon Saturday.wTwo expert dockers for The Daily Racing Form, Gene Schwartz and Frank Robinson, who probably have timed a million horses between them, each caught Secretariat in 1:53 2-5That was better than Canone-ro’s record of 1:54 set two years ago and much better than the 1:55 flat record by the electrical timer in the Preakness Satur day.Even Ted McLean, the official timer at Pimlico, caught Secretariat in 1:54 2-5 but he failed to notify the stewards as is customary and the 1:55 was posted as official Laurin has asked that thesituation be reviewed and Secretariat be credited with the record That appears to be unlikely The relieved little trainer was more interested in gettingSecretariat ready for the Belmont Stakes now that his colt is so close to turf immortality.1 don’t know of any new horses coming into the pictureWarriors sign lettersMERIDIAN Two Mendfcn High athletes have signed national letters of intent according to an announcement made Monday by Meridian athletic director Daryl KellumRandy Lindley, a 6-3. 225 pound offensive tackle has inked with Idaho State University and Greg Young, a 6-2 basketball guard, will be giving the hard-boards a try at the College ofSouthern Idahom mcu.k 111m 1. .v.w.r 1r'vIPTSERVICEWE CAN HELP YOU KEEPYOUR PHARMACEUTICALCOSTS DOWNDid you know that not all pharmacy prices are the same?
