PRINT THIS PAGE | E-MAIL THIS PAGE Friday, July 31, 1998 Sports columnist switches newspapers FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- Sports columnist Randy Galloway said Thursday he's leaving The Dallas Morning News after 32 years to join the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. "When you're somewhere 32 years, and with a product The Morning News had, it's not an easy decision," Galloway told radio station WBAP, where he hosts a daily sports talk show. "But I am firmly convinced it was the right decision and the right time to be at the Fort Worth Star-Telegram," he said. Galloway's last column for The Morning News appeared in Sunday's editions. Star-Telegram sports editor Scott Monserud said Galloway was approached about moving his column less than two weeks ago. "He'll be a great addition to our staff," Monserud said. "He'll be writing four columns a week, starting Sunday, Aug. 16. I think it'll be a huge, huge boost for us." Morning News executive sports editor Dave Smith said Dallas Stars beat writer Tim Cowlishaw will take over Galloway's column. "Nobody ever likes to lose an individual from their staff -- a good, talented individual," Smith said. "But Sports Day at The Dallas Morning News is a team operation. And we hope and feel that the readers buy us for our overall sports content." Cowlishaw, a native of the Dallas suburb Richardson, has also covered major league baseball, the Dallas Cowboys, basketball and college sports. "He's basically done it all," Smith said. "He has a great background in sports."   Send a Letter to the Editor about This Story | Start or Join A Discussion about This Story Send the URL (Address) of This Story to A Friend: Enter their email address below: texnews.com Reporter OnLine Local Sports Texas Sports Copyright ©1998, Abilene Reporter-News / Texnews / E.W.
