J. Simpson, wearing an unof-' ficial $600,000 price tag, tops a list of 442 graduating college foot- ball players slated to be grabbed up by the pros' in the annual draft, starting early today. The most desirable ball-carriers,? ' besides Simpson, are Michigan's' Ron Johnson, Leroy Keyes of Pur- due, Paul Gipson of Houston, Bill Enyart of Oregon State, Larry Smith of Florida and Mercury Morris of West Texas State. Simpson, who is winner of the Heisman Trophy and called by { many the greatest ball-carrier of! all-time, is certain to be the No. 1 A pick of the Buffalo Bills of the American League, who earned the right by finishing with the poor- est season record in all of pro football 1-1241. But the Bills already have been" handed notice-they will have to {pay through the nose. Simpson's business agent hast dropped the subtle hint that his man expects to get the biggestt bonus ever paid a college star, at e figure exceeding the reported1 h $600,000 salary-bonus given Don- ny Anderson of Texas Tech by This Week in Sports FRIDAY HOCKEY-Minnesota at Colesium, 8 P.M.

SPORTS SHORTS: Steelers name Noll head coach j ,1 i By The Associated Press PITTSBURGH - Chuck Noll, an assistant coach for the Balti- more Colts, was named head foot-. ball coach of the Pitsburgh Steel- ers yesterday. And the luckless Pittsburgh team is hoping some of his experi- ence with the National Football League champions will rub off. Noll, 27, is a veteran of nine years of coaching experience. He joined the Colts in 1966 under his former Cleveland Brown team- mate, Coach Don Shula. Noll play- ed offensive guard and linebacker, for the Browns from 1953 to 1959. Noll, like his predecessor, Bill Austin, has moved into the top Steelers spot from relative ob- scurity. Austin, who was an assistant coach for the Los Angeles Rams, was fired in December after com- piling an 11-28-3 record during his three years with the Steelers., ' Joe Paterno, who coached Penn State to an undefeated season, including an Orange Bowl victory, turned down the Steelers' job earlier this month. The Steelers reportedly offered Paerno a $70,000-a-year contract over five years. Rooney said Noll got a three- year contract, but declined to com- ment on the salary. "That's con- fidential," he said. * * *- Pitt gets coach PITTSBURGH - Carl DePas- qua, who created two small college football powers, Sunday was given the job of pulling Pittsburgh out of the losing columns. The Pitt graduate said it didn't bother him a bit that he was fifth choice, or lower, to try to return Pitt football to its glory days. "I don't have any qualms at, all," said the former backfield start of the 40s. But he acknowledged that it wasn't 'going to be easy to build a winning attitude after three straight 1-9 seasons. "It's going to be a tough situa- tion,' he told a news conference barely 2 hours after he got the phone call from Athletic Director of one-month Cas Myslinski ask- ing him to take the job as head football coach. "It's going to take time." Myslinski turned down by four, big name coaches, said he was glad the search was over. "I've gotten four years experience in one month," he said. He wouldn't talk about the terms of the contract. "We've going to try to keep him forever," Myslinski said. "We shook hands and we've got a coach," he said.
