Herzog remains quiet about Royals contract
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - Joe Burke, vice president of the Kansas City Royals, said yesterday he had not heard from Manager Whitey Herzog despite indications they would get together to try to come to terms on a new contract.
Herzog and Burke met for Monday what was described as a "cordial" talk on the one-year baseball pact Herzog criticized last week. Burke said he evidenced that he had insulted them and there had been indications that the answer could have come Tuesday.
BUT BURKE said at mid-afternoon yesterday he had not heard from Herzog since Monday's meeting.
"I thought we would talk today, but we haven't," Burke said. "I don't know when to expect a call from him."
The Kansas City Star reported that a source close to the club said Herzog was no longer balking at the terms or length of the one-year contract and was close to it.
A Royals spokesman said Herzog came to by visit Burke Tuesday morning, but Burke was away attending a meeting. When he returned, Burke called Herzog's home and left word for the manager to call back. Herzog was on vacation by yesterday afternoon and club officials said they could not reach Herzog by phone Tuesday or yesterday
Hometown star won't miss Irish
David Magley went into the record books as Mr. Basketball—chose the best prep player last year in Indiana. He averaged 25 runs and 4 steals, a game despite having a separated shoulder.
Yet he wu't recruited by Notre Dame,
and he's invited in his hometown of
South Bend, Indiana.
But none of them had come from South Bend, either.
It's true that Notre Dame could afford to be a little picky last winter. After all, the Fighting Werest were destined to be the NCAA with the top players and had done it with a team of young players.
"Coach Digger Phils has a thing about hometown ballplayers," Magley said this week, as KU's practices began. "He doesn't know enough. There are any ballplayers good enough."

"A MAN IS entitled to his opinion. I'd like to think he's wrong."
Kansas head coach Ted Tews thinks so too. Owens signed Magley along with two other prep players during a one-day cross-country jount. All three have All-American status.
Magley, a 6-7, 200-pound forward, was a two-year all-stater, according to wire services. He averaged 31 points a game in his first season and he pick up a 58-16 record in his three years.
And he's a tough kid. He played all 27 of his senior games, many of them with a separated right shoulder wrapped in a brace he still wears.
If he had been granted the chance, he might have gladly wern the Irish Gold and silver from his land.
"M A L T I L Y. spiefeid toward them," he admitted. "I would have like to stay in South Carolina."

she died late in the year. But it called Mageley that Phelps hadn't recruited him before that, when Phelps knew that Mageley was very interested in staying close to her.
He relied a lot on his mother for support and guidance.
"She had this thing about me being a man when I turned 18," he said. "I got the impu-

"Sometimes at night I could hear her yell,

MAGLEY'S 18TH birthday was Nov. 24.
His mother died Dec. 8.

THINGS WILL BE different in Allen Field House, he sure's. Owens put him at a swing position—a hybrid guard-forward. He'll be able to bring the ball up court, shoot from the outside and rebound, all of which are among his favorite moves.
