...year?perhaps to 6.3% or 6.4% next summer, in Eckstein's view ?from last month's relatively cheering rate of 5.9%. Also, the slowdown will do little if anything to temper inflation, which is expected to average 8% this year as measured by the Consumer Price Index. Robert Nathan, who heads an economic consulting firm in Washington, thinks the rate may come down a point or so next year, but he is the board's optimist.

Steinbrenner, however, reportedly did order Jackson's exile limited to five days. The Yankees won five straight games without their temperamental star. Jackson returned to the team unrepentant, telling reporters that he did not feel he had done anything wrong. That renewed Martin's rage; he approached reporters to excoriate the outfielder. Not content with that, he again tracked down writers waiting...
