Mets' Harrelson: This Bud's for you, Columbia
The State (Columbia, SC), January 19, 1985

In this article he reflects on what he learned the previous year at Little Falls in his first season as a professional manager. He's also photographed wearing what looks to be a ridiculously large button on his jacket.
