The promotor of the
exhibition, which was
staged as a public relations

the week, saying Riggs
and Austin “would only hit a

Pele bids farewell

EAST RUTHERFORD,
NJ. (AP) — The children
brought white flowers to
Pele, who stood on a plat-
form in the centre circle of
the field at Giants Stadium
on Saturday. He held their
faces in his hands and he
kissed them all. .

To them he leaves his
legacy, the soccer throne he
has abdicated to youth,
Later, he would admit: ‘I
died a little bit today,”

At halftime of his farewell
exhibition game, Pele stood
in the drenching rain that
fell from the skies as the
tears had flowed from his
eyes. A few feet to his left
was his father, whose
ambitions of soccer
greatness were cut short by
the need to feed a growing
family in impoverished Tres
Coracoes, Brazil; so many
years ago.

Pele peeled off the
Cosmos jersey he had worn

SO Proudly for three years
and handed it to the man
they called Dondinho. As
75,616 people cheered and
the world watched, father
and son embraced.

This was Pele's farewell
to the game he has played
for 22 years. And this was
the people’s farewell to him.
BEGS FOR LOVE

Heavyweight boxin
champion Muhammad
stood not far away as Pele
addressed the throng before
the game. “I want to ask

ou, because I believe love
is the most important thing
that we can have in Iife—

ople, say with me three
mes: Love! Love! Love!”

Later, when the ceremony
and the game were over,
Pele recalled the moment.
“When I was talking about
love, when I looked at
Muhammad Ali and he was
crying, I knew we were
equal and brothers.”

He has made everyone his
equal in his years of un-
surpassable achievement.
Saturday, his equals came
to say thanks.

He sent some away with a
smile, some with a tear but
everyone with a goal—the

third quarter, connected on
a pair of 10-yard passes to
Trunni ack Mark

quarter and flanker Mike

third period.

Zenon Andrusyshyn added

distance of 40 yards in the
opening period was wide for
a single. He converted both
