However, Staubach, 38, who was knocked unconscious five times last season, refused to say he would play even if he gets the green light from the physicians. “That (the result of the examination) will be part of my decision,’’ said Staubach. “But there are other factors. Right now I just don’t want to put myself into a corner on making a decision.” * * ♦ Los Angeles Kings rookie goalie Doug Keans was nervous about the prospect of playing a mere 100 miles from Saginaw, Mich. Last year, Keans, 22, was an amateur with the Saginaw Gears. He signed a pro contract with the Kings over the summer but was in the nets again for Saginaw when the current season began. In February Keans was promoted to the Kings’ Binghampton, N.Y., farm club of the American Hockey League and two weeks ago was summoned to the parent club. He was not nervous in his first NHL game, but the second game was in Detroit. “That’s a bit too close to Saginaw for comfort. I was afraid that if I didn’t play well they’d send me back there, ” he said. © 1980, McNaught Synd. Weekend Sales into tell you how Bv SAUYand JIM/WAMS COMPLAINING If your new toaster doesn’t work properly, if a leg comes off the new sofa — complain. It’s your right. Said a spokesman for the Federal Trade Commission: “Let your true indignation be heard.” Effective complaining demands technique, otherwise you may get the runaround. If possible, go in person to the store where you purchased the faulty product. If you can’t, write a letter. Don’t phone — phone calls are easily brushed off, and easily forgotten. To be effective, your letter should follow certain ground rules. Keep it short — no more than a single page. Don’t be abusive or use obscenities. Use a typewriter. Divide the letter three parts. First, when and where bought the item, much you paid. Second, explain clearly what went wrong, how the product is at fault. Be specific. Third, make your demands. State whether you want repairs, replacement, or a refund. Set a ? 2ic deadline for action. Make three carbon copies. If you get no reply or no satisfaction after three weeks, send a carbon to your local Better Business Bureau, another to your state’s Attorney General’s office. If there’s a Consumer Fraud office in your area, send a copy to them. These offices and the BBB are becoming very tough on frauds. If all else fails, write to the president of the company that makes the product. Many firms now have customer relations departments just to answer such complaints. They realize that hearing from disgruntled customers helps to improve the product. © 1980, McNaught Synd.
