The Bulls Should Play More Sunday Games By Elson Armstrong, Jr. It's hard to criticize i the operation - of the ' ' Durham Bulls over the past couple of years since j they returned and filled a summer sports vacuum in central I North Carolina. : ' V The Durham Athletic Park is a great place for baseball, the team is ex citing, and ' the : park workers from the front loffice to the usherettes , give a 100 per cent effort to make the paying, public enjoy their baseball outings. The only thing that Durham has failed to doi on a regular basis is play Sunday afternoon games. In 1980, I favored the Sunday night only con cept, but now after talk ing to fans, media, peo: pie, and Bulls Manager Bobby Dews, I say that it's time that the Bulls play at least half of their Sunday games in the afternoon. I think the fans would definitely go for it. Sunday afternoon games are as American as apple pie. It is true that many minor league teams don't draw well on Sun-, and August heat waves, day, but as has been pro- might make an after ved . time and ' again, y noon game unbearable. Durham is not just any But April, May and even . minor league city.

And we don't blame them. Because every time we build one, the rates go up. We re not happy about building power plants either. But the truth of the matter is, we have to. It's our job to provide the electricity bur customers need, when they need it. And the demand for electricity keeps increasing all the time, thanks to population growth, industrial expansion to provide needed jobs, and an increased standard of living. A standard of living that includes color television sets, washers, dryers, disposals, you name it; chances are it's done with electricity. So as long as those needs exist and continue to grow.thereH always be a heed for more power plants. We can't stpp new. pwrr, plant constmction.but we can slow it down. And in doing so keep your rates from rising so fast. In fact, we can save more than $10 billion in construction costs by the year 1990. And a whole lot more money in decades to come. It all has to do with something called Peak Demand and Load Management. lNTMSENDIMIEAI(DB(AND Customer demand for electricity isn't the same all the time. It has peaks and valleys.Tne highest demand for electricity the peak usually occurs on either the hottest or coldest weekday of the year. In addition to all the normal uses of electricity in homes, businesses and industries, that's when heating or air-conditioning systems the biggest electric users of all are running full blast. j The following graph shows what happened on January 11 of this year when you and other customers used the most electricity in the 78-year history of Duke Power. lj- 11.500 can be accomplished through a series of plans we've been working on for years.
