Cubs strike out in By Associated Press CHICAGO ? The Chicago Cubs have been thrown out in their first at-bat for lights at Wrigley Field, but hold on baseball fans, the call in being appealed. Attorneys for Tribune Co., owners of the National League team, have filed notice that tliey will appeal a judge's ruling Monday that upheld state and city laws effectively banning night baseball in a park where the game has been played exclusively in the sunshine since 1916. The notice, filed with the Illinois Appellate Court, came two hours after Cook Countv Circuit Judge Richard Currv said those laws don't violate the team's constitutional rights. CURRY SUGGESTED the Cubs owners were more concerned about making money with night baseball than they were about the potential disruption to the 55,(MX) residents of the North Side community. "The game of baseball may be everybody's business, but the business of baseball is greed," Curry said in his 64-page ruling.

The ruling, which came in response to a suit filed by the Cubs in December, was applauded by city leaders and residents around the park. "THIS RULING is further evidence that neighborhoods have the right to make critical decisions which affect their lives..." Mayor Harold Washington said. it means peace ana tranquility, saiu /xiaerman uernard Hansen, whose ward includes part of the area around Wrigley Field, the only major league ballpark without lights. But General Manager Dallas Green said in Mesa, Ari/., where the Cubs are in spring training, that he was "very, very disappointed" with Curry's ruling.

The transfer from Middle Georgia Junior College said that he wasn't sure what his role would be when he came here, but he knows now. "When I came here in the fall, coach Raines had me hitting third, and the third hitter is supposed to hit home runs and ftrivp in runs So I know now what mv role is. 1 am getting us cd to it and starting to enjoy hitting third." ANOTHER GAMECOCK who is off to a great start is Lewis Jenkins, who is hitting .333 with seven home runs and , 22 RBI. These tour newcomers lead a Gamecock team which is well on pace of breaking the school record for home runs in one season. The record stands at 83. accomplished by the 1981 team. This year's team has 61 afte[ only 24 games. The '85 squad also stands a chance at breaking the national record of 131 home runs in 74 games set by Florida Slate in 1982. "1 think we can do it," Datin said. "We still have two thirds of the season left and if we keep swinging the bats, we have an excellent chance."
