The Plain Dealer from Cleveland, Ohio (2024)

THE PLAIN DEALER, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1983. Free and Cavs far apart in talks By Gregory S. Simms The rookie and free agent camp for the 1983-84 Cleveland Cavaliers is an upbeat one. Firstround draft choice Roy Hinson appears to be one of General Manager Harry Weltman's steals. Rookie guard Stewart Granger is quick, and 6-7 shooting guard Linton Townes is looking like the real thing.

But there i is a cloud hanging over the proceedings: the question of whether World B. Free will be "in camp when the veterans report on Saturday. Free, undoubtedly, is the straw that stirs the drink, but he and the Cavs are far apart in negotiations to end World's status as a free agent. The Cavs reportedly want to pay Free, who averaged 23.9 points per game last season, about $500,000 per year for two or three seasons. Free's agent, Fred Slaughter of Los Angeles, indicated that Free wants a contract close to what the Cavs offered Portland's Calvin Natt, when Natt was a free agent.

The Cavs offered $4.5 million for six years. The Cavs don't want to offer IRATE Bucs' rooter in Canton Margaret Hughes 'Pittsburgh Marge' No.1 "By Hymie Williams PD BUREAU CANTON Through thick and thin of this season's pennant race in the National League East, Margaret Hughes, better known as "Pittsburgh. Marge," has kept the faith with her baseball favorites, the Pittsburgh Pirates. "Pittsburgh Marge" is the Bucs' No. 1 rooter in Canton.

Hughes, who works at the Mayfair Tavern, in downtown Canton, is identified by her distinctive Pittsburgh baseball cap and Pirate sweatshirt with a big booster button. "Many people just come into the restaurant to talk to 'Pittsburgh says Mayfair proprietor Joe Kelly. "First, they want to talk to her about the Pirates, and then they will order a or drink." "Pittsburgh Marge" organizes several bus trips each summer to Pirate home games at Three Rivers Stadium.

Weltman said he and Slaughter, while still far apart, were talking daily.

Slaughter said yesterday, "'The last time I talked to him was Monday. Weltman said he would get back to me." In the meantime, Slaughter said he is talking to two other teams, neither of which he would name. No team has officialy tendered Free an offer sheet. "In my opinion it makes sense for World to be there in Cleve- land," said Slaughter. "But if we can't get the terms together, we'll go elsewhere.

When I talked to Weltman Monday, I told him what the problems were. If they can offer Calvin Natt who never played for the team, who has never been in the top 10 in scoring, that amount, surely they can offer the same type of contract to World. I don't see Natt coming even close to what World does." Slaughter said Free has no desire to hold out. "He calls me every day from God knows where and asks, 'can I pick up my plane ticket "How many training camps does World have to attend to perfect his skills? How many training camps has he ever missed? None. How many training camps does he want to miss? None.

"It could be that Cleveland feels that after all the people they have signed, Phil Hubbard, Lonnie Shelton, they've got a competitive team. I don't, but I'm not Harry Weltman." Paul Thompson, 6-6 rookie from Tulane, who the Cavs hope will develop into a. good off guard, Cincy Elder gridders test state leader Moeller Friday COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) Cincinnati Moeller, The Associated Press' Class AAA state football ratings leader, faces one of its nemesis, host Cincinnati Elder, Friday night. The top-ranked Crusaders have had their most difficult time in playing Elder. The Panthers have beaten Moeller five of the 15 times they have met.

That's the most losses to one opponent in Moeller's history that has produced 203 victories and only 18 losses. Urbana and Newark Catholic also won their fourth straight games to keep the poll leads in Class AA and Class A. For the first time i in the poll's 36-year history, the leading 10 Class AAA schools remained in the same order for two straight weeks. Middletown was third Upper Arlington fourth, Cincinnati Princeton fifth, Austintown Fitch sixth, Sandusky seventh, Berea eighth, Youngstown Urusline ninth and Centerville 10th. In Class AA, Akron St.

Vincent-St. Mary climbed from fourth to third place and Fostoria moved up one spot to fourth. Ironton, third a week ago, dropped two positions to fifth after a 14-7 McKinley's Brown standout in By Hymie Williams PD BUREAU CANTON Kim Brown may be the most versatile girl athlete ever to come out of a Canton area high school. The McKinley High senior excels in basketball, track and volleyball. Her volleyball and basketball coach, Sue Davis, rates.

the 5-8, 135-pound Brown the best high school athletic prospect in Ohio, especially in volleyball where she has paced McKinley to a 10-0 record. Davis, herself a former Akron University three-sport star, has support in her critique, of f. Brown. Ohio State University last week rated Brown the No. 1 prospect in Ohio.

In basketball last season, Brown was McKinley's leading scorer, and in track last spring, she was a semi-finalist in the 400 meters and seventh in 100-meter hurdles. In volleyball, she is a paramount reason why McKinley will have a good chance to win the AAA state title. Last year McKinley was defeated in the state championship match against Cincinnati Mother Mercy. Brown and seniors Maria Barbato and Goode brothers spark Penguins in victory PO SPECIAL YOUNGSTOWN Youngstown State University's 42-14 victory over Western Illinois last Saturday night proved to be a very good game for the Goode brothers, John and Frank, from Cleveland Benedictine High. Both started the game and sparkled as the Penguins boosted their record to 2-1.

John caught seven passes for 148 yards, cluding one touchdown as a 222-pound senior tight end Frank, a 6-2, 218-pound junior linebacker, made four solo les, assisted on two others had two quarterback sacks. has 15 receptions for 282 and three touchdowns for season.
