Martin's Temper

Olympic Girls
Need Papers
To Prove It
ROME UP All the girls on
the United States Olympic team
are girls and they've got pa
pers to prove it,
"We've had some border line
cases in the past," said J. Lyman
Bingham, executive director of
the U.S. Olympic Committee,
"hut we've got none this time."
Ife took a filled in form from
his desk.
"This tells the story," he adds,
"Ti's a ST-3 form, signed by a
doctor. One has been turned in
for all of the 18 girls on our track
and field team."
Ile said every female on the
American team has been closely
questioned by a physician. The
doctor turned in the pavers when
he was satisfied all the Orls were
just that.
The question of whether a girl
athlete may not, in fact, be a
girl arose when officials of two
unnamed European countries
were reported to have questioned
the sex of a British Olympic girl
athlete.
The British treated the allega
tion so seriously that K. S. Dun
can, secretary of the British Ol
ympic Association. issued an off
statement denying that any girl
on the British team was a man.
Bingham said the ST-8 form is
a requirement of the International
Athletic Federation.
The precaution isn't as silly as
it may sound.
"There have been definite
cases," said Bingham, "of athletes
who've participated as girls who
later officially became men."

Cub pitcher Jim Brewer in
th a $1,040,000 damage suit.
hicago Cubs baseball club and
'Brewer, stems from a devastat
ing punch the fiery Martin threw
lat Brewer during the Red's last
appearance in Wrigley Field Aug.
14.
Brewer, a 20-year-old southpaw, l
suffered serious injuries from the
blow in his face. The orbital bone•
was fractured and the young'
pitcher since has undergone two
operations to correct the damage. !
He still is hospitalized and probH
ably will be out of play the reH
maincler of the season.
Martin, whom since has ex
pressed regret for the fracas,
charged Brewer was deliberate
ly throwing at him. National
League President Warren Giles
fined Martin $5OO and suspend
ed him for five days.
Martin had little to say when
served with formal notice of the
suit, although he cranked: "I won
der if they want this in cash or
by check."
The Cubs and Brewer each seek
damages of $520,000, $260.000 pun
itive and $260.000 actual damages.
The complaint, filed in Circuit
Court of Cook County said Brew
er has suffered a loss in the op
portunity to engage in profession
al baseball and therefore lost
great earning power, has suffered
bodily harm requiring hospitaliza
tion, operations and other exten
sive medical expenses.
Martin's teammates reportedly
chipped in and paid off his $5OO
fine. Yesterday they clustered
around him after the papers were
served and said: "Don't worry,
Billy, we'll all chip in again on
this thing. It'll only cost us about
$35,000 each."

might develop into the top run
