Sum numeric columns contained in a plain text file

Hi everyone,
Here are the contents of a plain text file created by a SQL query:
Code:
   SUM(T.TRNQTY)  COUNT(D.TRNSEQ)
---------------- ----------------
            1380               46
            1393               59
            2680              134
             740               37
             620               31
            1470               42
            3536              148
            5634              188
            2564              129

How can I sum the numeric columns to get the following result? No need to solve the problem for me. Just point me in the right direction and I'll be more than thankful Smilie.
Code:
20,017           814

I'm in Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.7 (Tikanga) and using GNU bash, version 3.2.25(1)-release (i386-redhat-linux-gnu).
Thanks in advance!
