Herschel Walker, a rookie running back from Georgia, passed up his finalyear of eligibility to sign with the United States Football League's New Jersey Gener- als. He signed a contract for $3..9 million for three years, including bonuses that could give him $4.5 million during that time. This year he rushed for 1812 yards and at his mini- mum contract amount that is $717.44 a yard. This is not a bad day's pay, collecting on the average $81,250.08 a game in one season.

Steven, representing Mild- - may -Carrick School was champion in the basketball free-throw competition for 11 -year-olds at Sacred Heart High School in Walkerton on Saturday. Six other, schools were participating in the various sporting events. August Wilkie is a patient in Walkerton Hospital. Weekend visitora'with .Jim Harkness included Bob Harkness Jr. and friend Monty Desroches from the West, Mr.- and Mrs. Genrge Harkness and fa ' iily,1d= erich, and Gw -and Grant Harkness. an pitcher for Kansas City Hopis, has a contract tlkiat gives =hitn $3.2 million eves 'lour years. He made 72 -ap ranees this Year. His P for one ap- pearance is $11,111;11. This again seems, to be a .high salary for throwing a ball 60 feet six inches. The worst;.fhuag thatcould happen after receiving a large contract is a player has a bad year. Perhapsthe pressure to produce after re- ceiving a newcontract causes this fate. This could be the case with the Montreal Expo catcher, Gary Carter. Last year he revived a multi-year, $15 million con- tract. This year he suffered through a poor season. The once -heralded catcher is now the scourge of Montreal. Rookie quarterback John Elway,.. this years' National Football League's first draft choice, received a $5 million, five-year contract. He has - been acclaimed as one of the best college quarterbacks ever. But, he has not pro- duced, as yet. He was originally drafted by Baltimore but refused to play for them and subse- quently traded to Denver be- fore the season started. The topic in Denver now must be: is he really worth all the money? In illustrating these examples, one is bound to see how outrageous the salaries have become and their resultant pressures for the athletes to produce.• There is no way anyone needs a million dollars a year.
