Chiefs’ first chief will be missed

Hank Stram, who died Sunday at age 82, did more than preside over the birth of a pro football team that Kansans and Missourians could call their own. As head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs from 1963 to 1974, he was the architect of exciting football. Stalking the sidelines in his red vests and fine suits, he seemed every inch a head coach, too, all 5 feet 7 inches of him.
