BREWERS GO AHEAD WITH IMAGE CHANGE DESPITE BALLPARK DELAY

          For the first time since '94, the Brewers "unveiled" a
     new logo and uniforms, "featuring cursive script, a new
     color and a barley sprig," according to Don Walker of the
     MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL, who writes that team officials
     "figured there was no reason to wait" until Miller Park
     opens in 2001 for a "makeover."  Brewers officials "hope the
     makeover will make cash registers ring," as the team ranks
     near the bottom of MLB in merchandise sales.  Walker notes
     that the logo features three colors -- blue, gold and a "new
     reddish brick."  The team will wear white jerseys at home
     and gray on the road, and also have a blue "alternate
     jersey."  "Milwaukee" will not appear on the front of the
     uniforms, only "Brewers" will.  The uniforms will be
     produced by Wilson and Majestic, while MLBP and Milwaukee-
     based McDill Design "were involved in the design" (JOURNAL
     SENTINEL, 11/10). Visit http://www.milwaukeebrewers.com.
