They Said It

•Darrell Royal, University of Texas football coach, when three freshmen quit the squad during spring training: "If they don't want to play football, I'd rather they quit now than in front of 75,000 people."

•Bob Uecker, Brave rookie, who has hit one home run and is rooming with Eddie Mathews: "Between me and my roommate we've hit 400 major league home runs."
