94.2 Million Volunteers.
Imagine what our communities and our country would be like if all those volunteers suddenly disappeared. It's a frightening thought, isn't it? That's because volunteers make such a critical contribution toward solving the serious social problems plaguing our community and our nation.
Now imagine the tremendous things that could be accomplished if that 94.2 million volunteers grew. Let's start with you.

Detroit manager Sparky Andersen wasn't especially impressed with the Royals offensive attack.
"They had 10 hits," he said of the Royals. "But half of them never should have been hit."

DETROIT — Gary Gaetti's hitting philosophy yesterday was a simple one.
"Today, I just closed my eyes and swung real hard and hoped I hit," said Gaettl, who belted two homers and tied a career high RBI total with six, as the Kansas City Royals spoiled Detroit rookie Jose Lima's major-league debut with an 11-6 victory against the Tigers.
Gaetti last drove in six runs on Sept. 1, 1992, against Cleveland. He also had six RBI in Tiger Stadium on May 2, 1990. ... Wells had arthroscopic surgery on his left elbow yesterday and will be out a minimum of four weeks. Lima will stay in the rotation. ... Kansas City has won 151 consecutive games in which it led after the eighth inning, the longest such streak in the majors over the last 50 years. The Tigers have had at least one double in each of their last 12 games. The Royals have made only one error in their last six games. ... Cone was 0-1 with a 4.37 ERA in three strikes against the Tigers in 1993. ... Detroit was 10-5 after its first 15 games last year.
Gaetti, who went 3-for-5 and raised his average to .298, launched a three-run homer to left field off Lima in the second inning and added another three-run shot off the right-field foul pole in the fifth off reliever Bill Krueger.
"Anytime something like this happens for you it's great," Gaetti said. "It's even better we won."
The Royals, who have won six of their last seven games, have scored five or more runs in eight of their last 10 games. No one appreciates that more than yesterday's starter, David Cone.
Kansas City scored nine runs to back Cone, 2-1. — the most support he has received since coming over to
"It felt great," said Cone, who allowed five runs and nine hits in six and one-third innings. "Gaetti came up big today, and it's been someone different every day. That is what's good about this."
"I knew coming into this season we were going to score runs in some way," Royals manager Hal McRae said. "With the exception of a series in Baltimore, we're scoring runs and hitting the ball out of the park."
got around on it and pulled it," Lima said. "With Henderson, I had to throw a fastball, and he got it."
Lima, 0-1, who was recalled from Class AAA Toledo after David Wells went on the disabled list Tuesday, pitched four innings and surrendered six runs on five hits. He walked two and struck out four.
Mike Macfarlane and Bob Hamelin drew walks before Gaetti hit his second home run of the season. Henderson followed with a shot over the wall in left.

'Big 12' birth waits on SWC death
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The sooner the Southwest Conference disbands, the sooner the "Big 12" could become reality.
A two-year timetable for the beginning of competition in most sports among the full new membership was set last month when four SWC schools accepted an invitation to join the Big Eight. But with three of the four remaining SWC members announcing Tuesday that they're going into an expanded Western Athletic Conference, the birth of the "Big 12" may not be two years away.
"We will not do anything on the competitive side in the Big Eight until two things happen," Deloss Dodds, athletic director at Texas, said yesterday. "The four institutions we're leaving agree to it. And, No. 2, the Big Eight says we're ready."
Because of contracts with the College Football Association, 1996 is almost certain to be the first year.
the big 12 will integrate football schedules. But the other sports could be brought into alignment quicker than expected depending on what happens at a meeting of SWC athletic directors April 29 in Dallas.
Texas A&M athletic director Wally Groff said the meeting was to "discuss how we're going to close down the conference."
The eight original Big Eight members and newcomers Texas, Texas A&M, Baylor and Texas Tech havea four-day meeting scheduled in Kansas City the second week in May.
Three of the four remaining SWC schools, Rice, Texas Christian and Southern Methodist said they would join a new 16-team WAC. Houston would be the only SWC school left.
"If those four tell us, 'We would prefer to do something on our own, you guys go ahead and do your deal,' then we're going to the Big Eight and saying, 'We're free to do these kind of deals right now, are
you interested?" Dodds said. "I don't think anything will happen in football until 1996. The other (sports) could happen sooner, and that includes basketball. But I think football is a 1996 subject."
Some important decisions could be made at the meeting in Kansas City next month, including the new league's official name.
"These things could be decided at the May meetings," said Prentice Gautt, associate commissioner of the Big Eight. "You could see baseball and the Olympic sports be brought into competition a lot quicker. But the CFA package will still be in effect."
Dodds, a former athletic director at Kansas State and associate commissioner of the Big Eight, said he was still having trouble making the mental adjustment to the new league.
"I know it's done. I know we're doing the rest of it, but it's hard for me to get the rest in my mind," he said.
