Stabler refuses $1 million offer New Orleans Saints quarterback Kenny Stabler, facing yet another operation on his old knees, has turned down a $1 million offer to play a spring of football with the United States Football League, his lawyer said Monday.

Henry Pitts said Stabler rejected the offer from the Memphis Showboats because he felt committed to continue building the Saints. Stabler, 38, led the team to an 8-8 finish in his second season with New Orleans, tying the National Football League club's best record. "He said he was very flattered as it was a very lucrative offer," Pitts said, "but that he did not feel like the job had been completed that he started in New Orleans." Stabler was picked up by Saints coach Bam Phillips after being waived by Houston, from which Phillips had been fired before coming to New Orleans. Plagued by knee problems, he finished the season 176-311-18, throwing for 1,988 yards and nine touchdowns. He is signed to a 1-year contract at a reported $600,000 salary, which is due for renegotiation Feb.

1. Phillips has said Stabler has a job with the team "as long as he wants it." The offer from the Memphis USFL club came last month despite the fact that Stabler is scheduled for arthroscopic knee surgery this month. More football Washington Redskins' quarterback coach Jerry Rhome, a candidate for the head coaching job with the USFL's Oklahoma Outlaws, said that he had failed to come to terms with the team and would remain with the Redskins. Basketball All-America forward Sam Perkins of top-ranked North Carolina has injured a thumb but is expected to play in Thursday's game against Boston University. Perkins suffered a "moderate sprain" of his right thumb in a weekend practice session, said trainer Marc Davis.

Montana State University officials said guard Larry Hamilton has been released from a Bozeman, hospital and might rejoin the team in three weeks. Hamilton, 20, suffered a fractured skull and other injuries in a collision with a University of Minnesota player Friday.

8:05 p.m. WBmmmmmlSmmmmSBBmmmmmmm Remembering Yanks9 Berra the first time around One member of the press corps broke up the meeting by asking, "Are you signing him as a ballplayer or as the club's doctor?" It didn't occur to any of us that 37 years later, Brown would leave his practice as a Fort Worth cardiologist to become president of the American League. Or that in the interim he would set a World Series record for pinch-hitting. As for Yogi, his first appearance in the big leagues drew raucous comments about his looks from opposing prompting him to say, "You don't hit with your face." He swung the bat at a Hall of Fame pace. They laughed again when he sat down to shuffle the lineup cards as Yankee manager in 1964.

He won the pennant in his single year on the job. As manager of the Mets, his club won the 1973 pennant in one of his four seasons on the job. Only two other managers have been winners in both leagues. Now they laugh with him. (Hy Goldberg, a former columnist for the Newark (N.J.) News, is now retired.

He wrote this article for The Miami Herald.) By Dy Goldberg Knigtit-Ridder Newspapers When baseball's spring training begins in February, Yogi Berra will settle into the dugout at Fort Lauderdale Stadium as manager of the New York Yankees. His selection as one of the numerous successors to Billy Martin was not exactly earthshaking, since the unexpected has come to be expected from owner George Steinbrenner. I have a pleasant recollection of Yogi's first time around in the same role. Although two decades have passed, a sports writer never forgets the rarity of a speculative item that ultimately becomes fact. In early September 1963, the Yankees were moving steadily toward their third consecutive pennant under Ralph Houk, who had succeeded Casey Stengel in 1961.

1 was a sports columnist for the He nodded. Topping made the announcement and spent the rest of the session explaining the earlier denials. The Yankees were in a pennant race and he was fearful of disrupting the club by revealing a managerial change. By coincidence, Dr. Robert Brown became president of the American League at the same time Berra was named Yankee manager for the second time.

In 1946, they were roommates on the road with the Newark Bears, the Yankees' No. 1 farm club. (Montreal's Jackie Robinson won the International League batting crown that year with a .349 average. Brown, Newark's third baseman, finished three percentage points behind). The previous spring, Yankee president Larry MacPhail announced that the club had signed Brown, a medical student at Tulane University, and that Brown would continue his medical studies and serve his internship during the offseason.

I are involved, so the Newark News carried the story. As the Yankees boarded a bus for the Minneapolis airport, someone from the press corps read the story aloud. The reaction was uproarious. Yogi's good friends, Mickey Mantle and Whitey Ford, Jokingly vowed to quit playing the day Yogi became manager. In New York, club officials were busy issuing denials.

Two months later, I had forgotten all about the story when the Yankees called a press conference at a mid-Manhattan hotel. Walking up Fifth Avenue toward the hotel, I ran into a New York baseball writer, who ventured a guess that Dan Topping Jr. was about to be named general manager. We strolled into the meeting room and I was approached by Bruce Henry, the club secretary. "You were right," he murmured.

For a moment, I didn't know what he was talking about. Then I asked, "Both Berra and Houk?" I now-defunct Newark News when I received a call from an old friend, an ex-newspaperman who thought I might be interested in a conversation he had with Berra's accountant during a business luncheon. According to my friend, Yogi was scheduled to take over as manager the following year, with Houk moving up to general manager to replace Roy Harney, who was retiring because of ill health. An agreement had been reached months earlier at a meeting involving all parties; it was understood that there would be no announcement until the end of the 1963 season. Frankly, I didn't believe the story.

The only logical move was the departure of Harney, who had been injured in an auto accident. Yogi was an unlikely manager. He was (and still is) everybody's friend, definitely not the type to enforce managerial discipline. Nevertheless, a man's accountant usually knows his client's business, particularly when contracts Jl I- -ir- -i fc.
