John Henry: “Whatlconomy Crunch?
99
There’s been a lot of poor-
mouthing about the economy
nationwide and statistics
proved a cause for concern.
But the crunch apparently
hasn't been felt at the turn
stiles in the South Atlantic
League and pumped up
about it all is the man who
presides over the eight-
member league, John Henry
Moss.
Several of the teams, in
cluding Gastonia, might not
be quite up to snuff in atten
dance but, generally speak
ing, the figures are positive.
The addition of Macon and
Charleston helps and the
baseball fever in Greensboro,
a Yankee-backed operation,
is running amuck.
"That’s the fertile spot, no
question about it," said Moss
with the second half of the
split season cranking up this
week, "Already, Greensboro
is approaching 100,000.
They’ve had fantastic crowds
through great promotions. Of
course, the best promotion is
their first place standing all
season long.”
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ J
Moss has always taken gef
nuine pride in the fact tha®
many of the players from th^
old Western Carolinas, which,
he founded, babied and
steered through the good and,
lean years, not only made It
to the big time, but have cut
niches for themselves in the
majors.
Names like Bobby Bonds,
Nolan Ryan, Steve Carlton,
Al Oliver and Freddie Patek
just to mention a few.
John Henry feels that the
current crop of South Atlantic
major league potential looks
promising. He’d have to start
with the Greensboro out
fielder, Don Mattingly, a .400
hitter for the Hornets, also,
unbeaten pitcher, Dave
Schmidt of Asheville,
Charleston catcher, Denny
Porter and brother of the
Kansas City Royal receiver,
Darrell Porter. Also Otis Nix
on, fine third baseman at
Greensboro and a North
Carolinian.
The Cardinals' Dave Kable,
who had a good chance of
JOHN HENRY
passing his 20 home runs
■last season, pitcher Scott
!■ /igoni and infielder Mike
Mters also have the mak-
is of big league players,
p In making plans for the
p HO South Atlantic League
sson,” says Moss, "I was
1 pmistic about the chances
S^’lf'ce of an impending dip in
Ttheconomy picture. At the
MOSS
present time, I see no reason
for altering that stand. It looks
absolutely fabulous.”
But then, John Henry is the
type of guy who’d jump from
an airplane chute-less and
count on sprouting wings to
soften the fall.
An eternal optimist no mat
ter the situation.
