HALL OF FAME GROUP:

 

This global e-mail answers Al Placek and others who have e-mailed Don DeBat:

Obviously we are trying to reach out to all the people who played regularly or in tournaments with the Daily News between 1970-1978 and Sun-Times between 1979 and the present.  I sent an e-mail to Gary Thorsen about tickets and have not heard back.  We could easily have 100 players + wives & dates, so I would not be surprised it we attract 150-200 people to honor this historic 35 year run.

Dave Southwell, Bob Egan and myself are hosting an organizational get together on Nov. 17 at 7 p.m. at the West Side Billy Goat.

1. The meeting will be to come up with a list of players who we will reach out to and hopefully attract to the dinner. We are looking for phone numbes, home addresses and e-mails.

2. Erik DeBat already is designing a multi-color a logo for the Hall of Fame jackets.

3. I will bring jacket samples. There may be a chance to order a game-style jacket and a fancy winter style with leather sleeves.

4. Jacket orders will begin and likely continue until the night of the dinner.  Delivery will be March or April, 2008

5. Forward this to and eligible play for which you have an e-mail address.
