European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - September 28, 1978, Darmstadt, Hesse Thursday september 28, 1978 the stars and stripes Page 21 he Short up Story out of Berkeley calif., said that an 18-year-old freshman wrestler Eric Leaf had collapsed and died of an apparent heart attack after doing stretching exercises and working on the weights. We Are very sorry to report that he is the same Eric Leaf who won the 175-Pound championship for Wiesbaden in the Dodd eur Germany regional and the same title in the european invitational championship meet sponsored by the accent wrestling team last year. He also captured the most pins in the quickest time trophy in the Germany championships four in 13 minutes 30 seconds. He had a Brilliant 18-0 record in regular season Competition last year including 16 victories by pins. Leaf was very Active in Wiesbaden High school activities and had earned the respect and admiration of students coaches and administrators during his High school Days. Eric was really loved by everyone Here at general . Arnold High school wrestling coach Jerry Smith said tuesday. He contributed an awful lot to the school As a Stu Dent athlete and All around citizen. He was a great help to the wrestling team with his team spirit dedication to training and will to win. We All loved him like he was a member of the family. With the loss of Eric everyone Here at Wiesbaden is deeply prep Pickin s had the privilege of knowing Eric Leaf the two years he wrestled at Wiesbaden. He was always a gentleman and a sportsman. We offer our the football reports except one reached is sports in time for Publica Tion last week but several of the volleyball and Cross country reports failed to make it. A couple were sent through the Apo system and even though they had the is cilia i address it s impossible to expect them to get Here on time. The reporting was improved but some of the visitors details were still missing. In fact one report indicated that the visitors had scored on a pass from the quarterback to the wide receiver. Since no program was included and there was no Way to identify either player we did t even bother to try to run that report. Prep Pickin s wishes his predictions percentage was As High As the reports submitted rating but so far this in t so. We received letters from practically everyone on the we Brucken team for not predicting a Trojan opening Day win Over Pitburg. But they arrived after we had already picked Baum older to Knock off the trojans. And the Baum older Over Wei Brincken pick was t the Only one we missed last week we wish it were but our record was 9-11-1, an improvement however so slight Over our previous efforts this year. That leaves us with a 14-22-3 Mark for the year a non too Glossy .389 Mark. So it looks like we have to reckon with Trojan Power this week As we try to pick our selves up off the floor and gain some respectability. Looking for improvement this week we like Frankfurt 16, Stuttgart 14 Wiesbaden 20, Kaiserslautern 14 Heidelberg 27, Mannheim 12 Hanau 27, Pitburg 8 Augsburg 16, Munich 12 Wei Brincken 19, Berlin 0 Karlsruhe 19, Hahn 14 Bremerhaven 27, Brussels 8 Lakenheath 24, London 8 Rota 24, Torrejon red 8 Naples 28, Vicenza 22w Wiir Burg 20, Niernberg 12 is 28, Baum older 8 Ansbach 18, Bonn 12 shape 16, accent 8 u.

Last week he scored four touchdowns and moved into the prep scoring Lead with a total of 36 Points 12 More than is s Eric Schaeffer and Naples Ernie Collier have scored. There Are several Naples performers among the leading scorers and that s be cause the school is divided into two 8-Man teams the White and Green when it plays Simonella and Brindisi which Are very Small schools.
