Leatherman follows Seahawks to old hometown
It will be a trip back into history for
Jack Leatherman, who is preparing to
leave this week for Miami and Satur-
day's AFC semi-final featuring the
Seattle Seahawks and Miami Dolphins.
Leatherman, born and raised in
Florida before settling in Marysville in
the early 1950s, hasn't seen the insides
of the Orange Bowl in 35 years. ,
"I didn't play any football; I played
baseball and basketball," says
Leatherman, who went to college at
both Florida and Missouri.
"But I was a spotter for football, sit-
ting in the box calling off numbers and
names. ' '
Leatherman was a cub reporter with
the Florida Times Union in Jackson-
ville in his senior year of high school in
1946 and in his first year of college at
the University of Florida at Galnsville.
In 1948, he transferred to Missouri
to pursue studies in journalism -- dur-
ing the time writing sports and general
news for the campus newspaper.
Circumstances prompted him to
switch from journalism to a major in
business administration, and saw him
return to the University of Florida
where he studied for another two years
before a four-year enlistment in the
Navy, beginning in 1951.
Hc was transferred to the Pacific
Northwest, where he met his wife,
Maril~'n, in the spring of 1952. The
following year, August of 1953, after
his return from assignment in Japan,
he and Marilyn were married.
After his discharge from the Navy
on Thanksgiving of 1954, the Leather-
mans moved back to the east coast. But
16 months in New Jersey changed his
mind about residing in the East, and
they returned to the Pacific Northwest
in 1955.
He then earned his teaching creden-
tials while attending Western
Washington State College and the
University of Washington -- and settl-
ed down for a long teaching career in
the Lake Stevens School District,
beginning in 1958.
He retired January of this year at the
age of 54.
Leatherman, looking for a local
angle on this Saturday's game, has
made one other trip back to his old
stomping grounds -- that one last year
when he got together again with some
of-his old Julia Landon High School
(Jacksonville) classmates for their 35th
reunion.
With a little extra time, Leather-
man's hands have returned to the
typewriter.
Getting back into the sportswriting
game can have its ups and downs, as
Leatherman experienced on Christmas
Eve at the Kingdomc.
His ears still ringing from the roar of
the celebrative crowd, Lcatherman
departed the grandstands and headed
for the Seahawks' post-game locker
room
"I was going to wait for one of my
friends who had to run back upstairs
for his stats computer," Leathcrman
related of his post-game plans.
"But he told me to just go in and
he'd meet me inside. So, I did. There
was no name on the door, but I didn't
pay much attention.
"This didn't look like a locker room

Does deregulation
mean an end?
Or a beginning?
A lot of people have expressed concern over
how deregulation will affect the quality--and cost
--of their telephone service.
Well, as a General Telephone customer, rest
assured.
Basic monthly service rates will still be set by
state regulatory agencies. And we'll continue to
work closely with them to make sure you still get ......
the best possible service for the lowest possible
cost. ....
But some changes are in effect now. With more
on the way.
For instance, you already have the choice of
buying or renting your phones. And the selection
of styles, colors and features is virtually limitless. ~:~
In addition, you can save money by installing
your own telephone outlets with easy-to-use do-
it-yourself jacking kits.
Further, since in many areas AT&T isn't the
only long distance company anymore, it pays to
shop around. Because it's become possible to
save money with less expensive long distance
rates from other companies.
In any event, long distance rates will decrease
gradually. In the past, AT&T's monopoly long dis-
tance rates were set higher than necessary to
help subsidize local service rates. In fact, roughly
forty cents of every long distance dollar was used
to offset the cost of providing local phone service.
But growing competition in the long distance
business and increasingly available technology
are ending these subsidies. Concerned with this,
the Congress, the Courts, the Federal Communi-
cations Commission, and the telephone industry
itself are continuing to review alternate pricing
methods aimed at maintaining the world's finest
phone service at continued, affordable rates.
Eventually, General Telephone customers will
one day be able to have even more ¢ontrot of
their phone bills. You'll be able to keep costs
down by paying only for the local calls you make,
and the services you use. And nothing more.
Importantly, as we look to the future, you can
expect fantastic new services from your phone.
Services that let you do everything from ordering
merchandise from your favorite stores to protect-
ing your home with the most advanced security
systems. And much, much more.
So to answer the questions, "Does deregula-
tion mean an end? Or a beginning?," it's both.
Because it's really a matter of preserving the best
of the old, while permitting--and encouraging--
the unlimited possibilities of the new.
Changes for the better.
