4 Saturday, August 1, 1970 Page Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY Chiefs clobber L £frigtrn Dalt Ail-Stars, 24-3 Vol. LXXX, No. 58-S Ann Arbor, Michigan-Saturday, August 1, 1970 Ten Cent CHICAGO (P)-The world pro champion Kansas City Chiefs, brilliantly directed by 35-year-old Len Dawson and quickly exploiting the breaks, conquered a hard-trying collegiate squad 24-3 in the 37th All-Star football game last night. Before a throng of 69,940 in misty Soldier Field, the 12-point underdog collegians made costly mistakes quickly converted by the Chiefs, who scored the seventh straight pro victory in the Chicago Tribune charity classic. The Chiefs, who only had five days' practice because of pro football's raging labor dispute, scored 10 first quarter points on Daw- son's - 36-yard touchdown pass to Frank Pitts and Jan Stenerud's 43-yard field goal. The pro kings then wrapped up the game in the second period, scoring -after two interceptions off each of the All-Stars' two hard- pressed quarterbacks, Dennis Shaw of San-Diego State and Purdue's Mike Phipps; Four plays after Willie Lanier snatched a Shaw pass on-the All- Star 19, Warren McVea scooted three yards for a touchdown. And with seven seconds left to intermission, Jim Kearney stole a Phipps' pass and raced 65 yards to score for a 24-0 halftime Chief lead. The All-Stars held the Chiefs scoreless the entire second half, but blew a great touchdown chance at the start of the third period after Ted Koy of Texas recovered a Chief fumble on the Chief eight. But three plays later the collegiate threat died when a pass from Indiana's-John Isenbarger eluded Ken Burroughs of Texas Southern in the corner of the end zone. ISR EL GI ES RY I UeS.

Sound and ur T[HE ONGOING BATTLE between pro football owners and players is somehow not terribly exciting. It is not like a struggle of theimasses against the capitalist oppressers, but it is rather a question of the size of the piece of pie that each group should get. And it is a big pie. The players' strike, however, does not have in it some elements of human drama that- have been by and large overlooked. By staying out almost to the man, some of the players have placed their careers in jeopardy; they could be the real losers in the struggle. The player who plays on the specialty teams or on the taxi squad will have a harder time than ever making the team this season, and a year away from the wars dulls the warrior. When (and if) the strike is settled, the big name players like Lenny Dawson, Roman Gabriel and Leroy Kelly will have no trouble continuing to earn their living on the gridiron, but there are 40 players on each team, some of whom are quite dispensable. It is the faceless players with names ike Vilnis Ezerins, Harry Theofiledes and Pete Larson who are trapped in the mid- dle between the NFLPA strike and their desire to make the team. All three were among those who chose to report to train- ing camp in spite of the strike, and the choices they faced were equally unpleasant. Pat Matson, a guard for Cincinnati, perhaps best sum- med up the possible consequence for those who chose to report. "I think you'd find that if we (Cincinnati) had gone to camp by ourselves, once the season finally started, we'd be hit by a number of crippling injuries. There's a lot of people in pro football who know how to make injuries hap'- pen. if you know what I mean," he said yesterday. Matson didn't report to camp. Those few players who did choose to report must expect some form of retaliation for their action, both from their team- mates as well as opponents. As only 16 players had chosen to defy the strike as of yesterday evening, it is easy to imagine that at least some of those who stayed away were in part moti- vated by fear. Even though fear no.doubt motivated some players' de- cision to stay away, the success of the strike is amazing. Opposite the sixteen who reported, there are literally hun- dreds of players who stuck by the NFLPA despite the fact that their careers could suffer. If the strike does succeed in getting greater concessions from the owners, it is the unsung and unknown who should get most of the credit. The fact that the vast majority of these players have stayed away has made it impossible for the owners to break the_ strike. The clearest lesson to be learned from the strike is that professional sports are becoming more and more professional and less and less sporting. No sane pro athlete can afford to ignore the amount of money now available to sports figures. And when Vince Lombardi, the ultimate spartan, does a shaving cream commercial, it's enough to make you sick. Whether the people want pro sports or merely have been led to think that they do doesn't much matter; as long as they demand them, they'll get them. As long as the demand is big enough, there will also be a lot of money involved, and as long as there is a lot of money involved, there will be disagreements as to who should get it. All things considered, it's kind of surprising that the pro athletes in all sports haven't struck more often. By The Associated Press A trickle of little-known vet- erans reported to training camp yesterday and the promoters of a charity exhibition game in Jacksonville, Fla., cancelled their contract as the pro foot- ball strike went through i t s second day with a critical week- end of decision ahead. At the same time, two memb- ers of the Cincinnati Bengals- guard Pat Matson and quarter- back Sam Wyche - said they feared the threat of reprisals in the form of "crippling in- juries" if they reported to the club's training camp. Seven veterans reported, bringing to 18 the number who have showed up in camp since the National Football League Players Association acknowl- edged it was on strike in a con- tract dispute with club owners. Cancelled was the Aug. 8 game at Jacksonville between t h e Miami Dolphins and the Pitts- burgh Steelers. "We can't sell professional rookies at $6 a ticket," said Wil- liam Basford, president of Jacksonville Charities. "We will not honor the contract as it stands." His organization, Basford said, has already spent close to $15,- 000 to promote the game. He said he might reschedule the game if the dispute is settled, but only under a new contract in which the oprmotional costs were paid prior to either team getting any money. Among the veterans reporting Friday was Vietnam War re- turnee Rocky Bleier. Bleier, who gained 39 yards in six carries as a rookie with the Steelers in 1968, reported to the Pittsburgh camp after re- ceiving permisison directly from the Veterans on the club who considered his case special be- cause of the injuries he suffered in Vietnam. Meanwhile, Baltimore's Mike Curtis, the biggest name among the players who have reported,. explained his decision to report. "I made up my mind I had to report and get to work,". said Curtis, who switched from out- side linebacker to middle line- backer with the Colts last sea- son. "I had to shut out all other consideration. The main rea- son is I still have a lot to learn about playing the middle. "I made a lot of mistakes there last season and I've got to prepare myself for- this year. I'm in sympathy with most of the things the Players Associa- tion is trying to do but I per- sonally have to get ready men- tally and physically."

The Twins tied the game in the top of the inning on Bob Allison's two-run homer. Jim Northrup, starting his first game in a week, knocked in four runs with a three-run homer and single to give the Tigers an early margin. Northrup, who had been out with a pulled hamstring muscle, tagged young Bert Blyleven for his homer in the third inning to give the Tigers a 3-0 lead. But Minnesota pummelled Ti- ger Denny McLain and Daryl Patterson for six runs and seven hits in the sixth to take the lead. The Tigers went on another hitting binge in the seventh off Blyleven and ace reliever Ron Perranoski to score six more.

SGC had passed a resolution on Thurs- day "agreeing to act as a-screening board for the Vice Presidency of OSS during the coming few weeks if President Fleming agrees not to appoint a new Vice Presi- dent without consulting SGC for its ap- proval." According to SGC Executive Vice Presi- dent Jerry De Grieck, however, "We are going to procede and interview candidates even though the President did, not defi- nitely say he would choose any of the names we gave him." "It's understood if Fleming appoints somebody without our approval, he (the appointee) would have no legitimacy in our (SGC's) eyes," De Grieck said.* Fleming, who is leaving for Australia, refused comment last night on the latest developments in the search to find a permanent vice president. The search for a new vice president began two years ago when Richard Cut- ler resigned and Fleming appointed Bar- bara Newell as Acting Vice President. A search committee, with equal faculty and student representation, was then formed. Last fall this committee selected five candidates for the position, the vice president to be picked by Fleming. - Two of the candidates however, were eliminated almost immediately. Peter Steinberger, 27, a graduate of Michigan's law school, was apparently rejected by Fleming because he refused to discuss the job with him in a closed meeting. Carole Leland, 35, an official of the College Entrance Examination Board, was the next to drop out, calling the job an "impossible one" in view of the current student climate and the administration's intransigence on many issues. Miss Leland visited Ann Arbor in June and was reportedly offered the job, which she rejected. The third candidate, Hubert Locke, a black Wayne State administrator, was accused of insensitivity toward black students and also ran into student op- position on the structure of the still un- born OSS policy board. As controversy over the power of the policy board arose, Fleming postponed a decision on Newell's successor. As spring approached, all three remaining candi- dates, Locke, Alan Guskin, a psychology lecturer in the Residential College, and Walter Shervington, a lecturer in the law school, all dropped out of contention citing the long delay and philosophical difference with the administration as their reasons. At the July Regents meeting, the policy board was finally established with all policy decisions to be jointly worked out by the board and the Vice President. The Vice President would hold the power to appoint. The board itself would consist of five students and four faculty., With the controversy over the board settled, SGC this week started interview- ing possible candidates for the OSS slot. Monday they met with law Prof. Robert Knauss, chairman of Senate Advisory Committee on University Affairs, and Gretchen Wilson, a graduate student at the University. De Grieck said he has received a posi- tive reaction, so far, from the community with respect to their possible candidacies. - Next week SGC plans to meet with Bob Merrion, principal at Highland Park High School in Detroit. SGC President Marty Scott Thursday backed SGC's action, explaining "There should be wider involvement in the deci- sion-making and the candidate should have a broad base of student support." The SGC resolution accuses "President Fleming's delay and conceptualization of the position" as being the cause of the five original candidates either dropping out of contention or rejecting it.
