...award for best magazine interpretation of foreign affairs to TIME Associate Editor Walter Isaacson and Correspondents Bruce van Voorst and Johanna McGeary for their cover story "Arming the World" (Oct. 26, 1981). The esteemed Robert Capa gold medal for photographic reporting was awarded to TIME'S Rudi Frey for his intimate coverage of Poland's Solidarity movement and the imposition of martial law.

For all his buffoonery, Finley was as shrewd a judge of talent as any in the sport since Branch Rickey. Roll the names over in the mind: Jackson, Rudi, Bando, Hunter, Fingers, Blue. But he lost them all, and others, because he was unwilling to pay them well. Toward the end, he ordered that his players' half-fare airline coupons be collected as they stepped off the planes from road trips...
