...haven for draft dodgers (West Berlin residents are exempt from West Germany's 18-month conscription) and police-baiting left-wingers who want peace with East Germany at any price. "Rowdies once and for all will be put in their place," he says. The students are likely to resent his toughness, but they can hardly challenge his credentials. He was, after all, one of the students who founded the Free University in 1948 as a protest against Communist domination of the old Berlin University in the city's East Sector...

But most respect his toughness, and the team's new dedication to duty ("They're playing for their lives," explained a Minnesota newsman) shows in the box scores. Since Ermer took over, the Twins have played 25 games that were decided by one run-and they have won 14 of them, including a 3-2 victory over the White Sox last week that won them the league lead...
