While league officials have informed
players they face a minimum $100 fine
for participating in any formal union
demonstration at exhibition games, a
spokesman for the NFL management
Council said no effort will be made to
keep the players apart.
"THERE HAVE been no orders to
prevent the handshakes and no action is
planned at this time," said Jim Miller.
"However, the players have all been
notified of the penalty for violating a
league rule.
"We feel the players have a right to
participate in a union activity before
the game," said NFLPA spokesman
Frank Woschitz. "Union activitites are
protected under the collective
bargaining agreement. It is an action
for which the players cannot be fined."
"We, the Redskins, voted
unanimously in a team meeting that we
want to make a collective action to
show we are solid," Murphy said.

Landry signs with USFL
CHICAGO (AP) - Veteran Quarter-
back Greg Landry, who once played for
the Detroit Lions, on Thursday became
the second name player to sign with the
fledgling U.S. Football League, joining
former UCLA All-American Tim
Wrightman on the roster of the Chciago
Blitz. "The overriding reason for
signing was Blitz coach George Allen,"
said Landry, who was heading towards
his 15th National Football League
season when he was waived July 23 by
the Baltimore Colts. "I received a lot of
calls from NFL teams and a lot of of-
fers, "but I am hoping to play two more
seasons and then go into coaching," he
continued. "And ther'e is no better per-
son to learn from than George.'
Pressed, Landry said he had
"received more than two firm offers"
after talking with eight NFL teams."I
felt if I wanted to stay in the NFL
something would have worked out."
