...Jordan, calls him "Crafty," a wordplay on his name, not his style. Timothy Earl Kraft, 37, has a reputation for directness and reliability as well as a dis arming aw-shucks mien and slow, quiet drawl. Says a White House staffer: "He's more of a good ole boy than the Georgians...

...leaves change color. Baltimore manager Earl Weaver looks at the Sox 50-21 record and probably thinks of 1974, when Boston had a 7 1/2-game lead on August 23, only to lose the title to the Birds in the last two weeks. Don't worry about a pennant race, boy and girls...
