Echoes of a Closing Door
Julian H. Robertson Jr.s decision last week to shut Tiger Management in Manhattan reverberated in Salisbury, N.C., his hometown. In 1997, he set up the Blanche and Julian Robertson Family Foundation with $18 million, about half in cash, the other half in his hedge fund. Our success depends in part on its success, said Federal District Court Judge Bill Kluttz, the foundation board president, after hearing of the planned shutdown. But as Judge Kluttz said, even a somewhat reduced foundation would have a great impact on a town of 25,000. It has already given nearly $3.5 million to education, neighborhood revitalization, youth health and community planning. DEAN SMITH.

Religion Journal; An Era When the Art of the Sermon Has Declined
Preachers are like comedians, said Dr. Richard A. Lischer, the Cleland professor of preaching at Duke Divinity School. Theyre always looking for new material. For good and ill, there is a lot more new material when it comes time to write the Sunday sermon. Countless books promise ministers seven simple steps to sermonizing. Magazines and manuals offer how-to guides to homiletics. And, inevitably, the Internet is changing the way many ministers prepare their weekly addresses -- just click on Easter 2002, cut and paste..

Chuck Klein Of Baker Bowl
TED WILLIAMS has mellowed, but not, it is gratifying to note, to the point of going overripe and gooey. Accepting induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame for his late employer, Tom Yawkey, Theodore Samuel couldnt resist the temptation to sink a small barb into his old sparmates of the press. You, he told Duke Snider, another inductee, are the perfect example of what I always said about the writers. They dont always know everything they think they know. They were 10 years late in getting you here. As he sometimes was in his spats with the literary set during his playing days, Ted was dead right. Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays were elected to the Cooperstown shrine the first year they were eligible. Duke, their peer in the days when New York had three teams, should have been canonized in 1970, but the voting members of the Baseball Writers Association dithered bewilderingly.

Pit-Stop to Riches: A Monastery
When a group of people decide to remove themselves from society in an atmosphere that demands round-the-clock obedience, the result can be either a software company or a monastery.

Since 1996, Mr. Turak has spent more than five months at the secluded Mepnik Monastery, where about two dozen Trappist monks live near Charleston, S.C.

WHY FRESHMAN SHOULD NOT PLAY
-being, development and maturation of the young student-athlete would be well served by the elimination of freshmen eligibility for intercollegiate varsity competition in football and basketball in Division I. The principal reason other coaches and I take this position is the need to make a strong statement to incoming freshmen football and basketball players that their academic work comes first in time and importance. The young student-athlete, like all students, must make the adjustment to living away from home, to a more demanding and competitive academic environment and to a changed social setting. In addition to these adjustments, we have been asking the freshman athlete to give many hours of time and attention prematurely to another major dimension of his college life, the high profile teams of football and basketball. It is common sense that the diversion of the student-athlete from what should be primary in his freshman year is not in his best interests. Many do not realize the major difference in time required of the varsity athlete and the freshman before freshman eligiblity was established by the National Collegiate Athletic Association in the fall of 1972.
