  • Appears on a Players Card, It Means That You Use the K Or P Column When He Reovers a Fumble
    1981 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1981 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most. Realistic use of the players frequently below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he reovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.

  • An Organization in Transition
    An organization in transition: The Capital District Coalition Against Apartheid and Racism CD-CAAR becomes CD-CSAAR The Capital District Coalition for Southern Africa and Against Racism Box 3002 Pine Hills Station Albany, New York 12203 A project of the Social Justice Center March, 1995 A Message from Vera Michelson. .. Remembering CD-CHAR As we mark the one year anniversary of the April, 1994 elections in South Africa and the transition of the country from a racist apartheid regime to a non-racial democracy under the leadership of Nelson Mandela, the Capital District Coalition Against Apartheid and Racism (CD-CAAR) is undergoing a reorganization. The following CD-CAAR steering committe members - Vera Michelson, Mark Mishler, Mabel Leon, Debbie Maxwell, Eileen Kawola and Roli Varma - will be leaving. The new effort will be named the Capital District Coalition for Southern Africa and Against Racism (CD-CSAAR pronounced CD- CZAR). Members of the new steering committee are Josephine Burke Baptiste, Gail Byrnes, Tauheedah Madyun, Merton Simpson (Chairperson), Oswald Sykes, and James Wright. But before we end this chapter of CD-CAAR, I felt it important that we pay tribute to the many people who played significant roles in the life of the organization and the anti-apartheid struggle . Some of these people are remembered for their continuous work in the organization and some are remembered for their collaboration on special projects . Of course, this chronology only touches on the highlights of the past 14 years . This is not an attempt to capture it all . I know that we are compiling this list at great risk as it is guaranteed that we will omit people and organizations in this impossible task.
