By GARY COHEN
The Stanford Daily
Frankie Albert, John Brode, Jim
Plunkett and Mike Boryla are all fa-
mous Stanford alumni. Noteworthy is
the fact that they are all quarterbacks.
The Cardinals have never been reluc-
tant to toss the ball, and in the past
they have done enough catching to be
a more than representative member of
the Pacific-8 conference. In the seven-
ties only Southern Cal has won more
Rose Bowls, and Stanford's two New
Year's Day victories this decade dou-
bles the total of the whole Big Ten.
YET, THE 1975 edition of the Cardi-
nals does not appear to be of Rose
Bowl caliber. The Cards can still throw
the ball, but this year the ground at-
tack may be too weak.
Three quarterbacks can run the of-
fense, but Mike Cordova is the prob-
able starter. Last week he was 17-38-3
against Penn State in a wind that
made the Cards, think that they were
playing just a few miles north of their
own campus in Candlestick Park.
Six of his completions were to Tony
Hill, a speedster with some all-Ameri-
can, potential. Bill Singler and tight
end Ted Pappas are also familiar reci-
pients of Cordova's bullet-like throws.
Should Cordova falter, Guy Benja-
min will be waiting in the wings. Ben-
jamin cannot throw like Cordova, but
can still move the offense.
THE OFFENSE had problems,
though, at Penn State. Six turnovers
and the lack of an adequate rushing
game combined to hold the potential-
ly explosive Cards to 14 points.
Stanford manaaged only 84 yards
rushing against a Penn State defense
that had resembled Swiss cheese the
week before.
Ron Inge, a 6-0, 200 junior running
back is Stanford's hope for diversify-
ing the attack. Last week the offen-
sive line acted as though Cordova was
a fellow Hatfield, while Inge and the
other runners were the McCoys.
The defense has a similar lack of
balance. The pass defense was tested
only six times in its first outing of
the year. This was partly due to the
respect that the Nittany Lions had
for Stanford's secondary, but mainly
due to Stanford's inability to halt the
Penn State runners.
PENN STATE amassed 330 yards on
the ground and almost five yards a
play. Stanford's tendency toward arm-
tackling allowed Penn State freshman
Tom Donovan to accumulate 110 yards
on the ground. The defense will have
ies on
to do a better job against Gordie Bell
to keep the Cards in the game.
Maize and Blue fans undoubtedly re-
call Bob Ufer's vivid account of last
year's 27-16 Michigan come-from-be-
hind victory in Palo Alto.
They remember that the Stanford
defense held the Wolverines to a sin-
gle touchdown in the first half, and
that Mike Langford's field goals of
42, 42, and 52 yards gave Stanford a
9-6 halftime edge.
LANGFORD returns with what may
be the best right foot in the country,
but the defense that played so well in
that half has forfeited three linemen
and two linbackers to the pro draft
and is still regrouping.
One treat for the masses that attend
the game Saturday afternoon, is that
the Leland Stanford Junior University
Marching Band will perform. They are
appearing directly from an engage-
ment at the White House and those
who have never seen the redcoated
rowdies should be prepared. They will
play after the game as well.
Jerry Waldvogel, who started last
year's Stanford - Michigan game at
quarterback, will be watching this one
from the sidelines. Waldvogel hasn't
played since that game and is now the
Card's third string quarterback.

MICHIGAN WINGBACK Jim Smith leaps over a Wisconsin defender to grab a Rick Leach pass.
Smith may get a bit of a rest tomorrow, since the weak Stanford defense makes the pass un-
necessary-running sufficed last week for Penn State, who rolled up 330 yards on the ground
against the Cards.
SEASON OPENS SUNDAY:
ATTTY
By The Associated Press
The five striking National
Football League teams agreed
yesterday to return to work as
the latest strife to hit the NFL
was ended following a marathon
13-hour negotiating session and
a five-hour meeting with the re-
(calcitrant New England Pa-
triots.
Randy Vataha, player repre-
sentative of the Patriots,
emerged from a long session
Thursday afternoon in Foxboro,
Mass., to say that federal me-
diator W. J. Usery Jr., had con-
vinced the club which started
the walkout to play this Sunday
and await a contract offer from
management on Monday.
The New York Jets, New
York Giants, Washington Red-
skins and Detroit Lions re-
sumed practice Thursday fol-
lowing the tentative peace
reached between the NFL
Players Association and the
league's Management Council
in the exhaustive meeting
which ended at 9 a.m. in New
York.
But the Patriots were tough to
convince. A four-man delegation.
from the New York meetings
flew to Boston and it took them
five hours to convince the New
England team to play Houston
on Sunday.
Thus, the most serious threat
ever posed to NFL regular sea-
son games was ended, and a
great deal of the credit for that
seemed to belong to Usery, the
nation's top federal mediator.
"We are now willing to go
back to play this weekend,"

Vataha said as he emerged
from the meeting. "However,
we are still completely commit-
ted to the principles that we
started with."
That strike started because
there has been no contract be-
tween the players' union and
management for 19 months.
A key to ending the six-day
walkout was management's
promise of a substantive con-
tract offer by Monday.
Vataha said the decision to
end the strike was by a major-
ity vote, but he wouldn't say
what the vote was. It followed
meetings attended by the play-
ers and the delegation from the
New York meetings - Usery,
players union head Ed Garvey,
Sargent Karch, executive direc-
tor of the NFL Management
Council, and Richard Neal,
player rep of the New York
Jets.
"Mr. Usery has stuck his
feelings out for us," Vataha
said. "He feels that after dis-
cussions with the Management
Council in New York, some-
thing meaningful will come on
Monday.",
Vataha said that when his
club began the strike last Sat-
urday, forcing cancellation of an
exhibition game, "All we were
saying is that nothing has hap-
pened" in negotiations. Now, he
said, it looked as if something
would.
Terms of the agreement ham-
mered out in New York still had
not been announced Thursday

Bob Gibson retires '
It was a sad night for Bob Gibson, the St. Louis Cardinals,
and all baseball yesterday evening when the superstar pitcher
hung up his jersey for the last time. Gibson, a Cardinal since
1959, was one of baseball's premier pitchers for several years.
He had a phenomenal 1.12 ERA and set the World Series rec-
ord for strikeouts (17) in 1968.

DIETZEL'S THE ONE
Hoosiers hire athletic c
BLOOMINGTON (P) - Paul
Dietzel was named athletic di-
rector at Indiana University
yesterday, ending a year-long
search for a successor to retir-
ed J. W. "Bill" Orwig.
The university board of trus-
tees, in a telephone vote, unani-
mously approved the appoint-
ment, Indiana President John
W. Ryan said.
Dietzel, 51; former football
coach at Louisiana State Uni-
versity, Army and South Caro-
lina, is commissioner of the
Ohio Valley Conference. His
contract with the OVC runs
through June 30, 1976.
Dietzel said ,he would hold
both the Indiana and OVC
jobs until a new OVC com-
missioner was appointed but
no later than next June 1,
after the annual OVC meet-
ing.
Orwig, IU athletic director
since 1961, retired June 30, but
the search for a successor be-
gan a year ago. His assistant,
Bob Dro, was interim athletic
director.
Bob Skoronski, former In-
diana All - American football
player and now a businessman
in Wisconsin, and Homer Rice,
athletic director at North Caro-
lina, were the first two choices,
but both turned down the job.
Leitzel also had withdrawn
his name from consideration a
week before assuming the OVC
' commissioner's post in April.
The next choice, Bill Arm-
strong, president of the Indi-
ana University Foundation,
withdrew after he was unable
to get faculty approval.
A native of Ohio, Dietzel's ca-
reer in organized athletics
spans 37 years including seven
as a player, seven as an assist-.
ant coach, 20 as coach and nine
years in the dual role of coach
and athletic director.
Dietzel played football one
year at Duke University before
going into the military during
World War II. After the war, he
irector
played at Miami of Ohio.
His first head coaching job
was at LSU in 1955. Three
years later, the Tigers won the
national championship with an
unbeaten, untied season capped
by a Sugar Bowl victory. Diet-
zel moved to West Point in 1962
and then became athletic direc-
tor and coach at South Carolina
in 1966. He retired from coach-
ing in 1974 after compiling a
109-75 record.
