Hex Maniac Assau  &#13;
NORFOLK, Va. (AP) - Norfolk's resi-  &#13;
dent Evil Eye Fleagle, Ted Owens, has  &#13;
zonked the world champion Baltimore  &#13;
Colts and wants a $100,000 check to  &#13;
remove the hex and keep them on the pro  &#13;
football pedestal.  &#13;
Owens, who claims mind-over-matter  &#13;
psychic powers, wrote the Colts Feb. 2  &#13;
warning that "I intend to attack the world  &#13;
champions of pro football with my mind."  &#13;
The doleful result of such an attack,  &#13;
Owens says, would be that the Colts will  &#13;
dimensional effects including  &#13;
red and black units.  &#13;
It was, he says, "pretty much  &#13;
like setting the clock on a time  &#13;
bomb."  &#13;
Meantime, for whatever rea-  &#13;
son, the Colts have been falling  &#13;
apart.  &#13;
On April 7, star quarterback  &#13;
John Unitas mysteriously in-  &#13;
jured his right foot while play-  &#13;
ing paddleball.  &#13;
Halfback Tom Matte rushed  &#13;
Unitas to the hospital - and la-  &#13;
ter came down with a case of  &#13;
bleeding ulcers.  &#13;
Five other Colt players also  &#13;
are on the injured list.  &#13;
"have key injuries in the coming season  &#13;
to key players, losing games they  &#13;
shouldn't lose."  &#13;
And the threats of the Wizard of the  &#13;
Withering Look haven't gone unheeded by  &#13;
the Colt management. Colt President Car-  &#13;
roll Rosenbloom wrote Owens on March  &#13;
4:  &#13;
"Please believe me when I request that  &#13;
you remove us from your list of losers. If  &#13;
you will please advise me as to a course  &#13;
of action which we could follow to have us  &#13;
Owens hasn't had any mail  &#13;
lately from Rosenbloom, with  &#13;
or without a check for $100,000.  &#13;
Too bad, says Owens, a former  &#13;
professional knife-thrower.  &#13;
"I have nothing against the  &#13;
Colts, per se," he says. "It's  &#13;
simply that I need the money.  &#13;
They just don't understand the  &#13;
kind of hair-raising power that's  &#13;
in my possession."&#13;
