Bob Talamini, 6-1, 255, an AFL veteran, must take care of Fred Miller, 6-3, 250, regarded by many as the Colts' top defen- sive lineman. Center John Schmitt, 6-4, 245, will be occu- pied with either middle line- backer Denny Gaubatz, 6-2, 232, ear a tackle, On the other side of the line it wifJ be.

If It is tight end John Mackey, 6-2, 224, the primary responsibility will belong to strong safety Jim Hudson, §-2, 210. • • . Willie Richardson, 6-2, 198, ; one of MorralTs favorite targets ha recent games, draws Johnny Sample, 6-1, 204, or Cornell Gor- don, 6-0, 187, who replaced him against Oakland after Fred Bil- etnikoff beat Sample a few times. Free safety Bill Baird, 5- 10, 180, roams the range depend- ing on the type of defense used. The linebacking trio of Ralph Baker, 6-3, 235, on the left side, Atkinson in the middle and Lar- ry Grantham, 6-0, 212, on the right side, must pick up the backs coming through for a pass, help out the corner men and turn in the running game. The Colts have run the ball more this year with Merrall, in- stead of Unitas, at the controls. They scored all four touchdowns on the ground against Cleve- land. Tom Matte, 6-0, 214, their versatile halfback who can run, catch and throw the ball, as. well as block, is the big threat, Jerry Hill, 5-11, 215, handi- capped by injuries in late sea- son, is a superior blocker and strong runner. New York's running game ac- counted for 22 touchdowns, an AFL high, with fullback Matt Shell, 6-2, 219, doing the heavy duty with Emerson Boozer, 5-11, 202, to the outside. Summarizing the two clubs, Baltimore scored 56 touchdowns and gave up only 16. New York scored 45 but gave up 36, al- though they ranked first in total defensive yardage. • Morrall threw 26 touchdown passes in regular season and was intercepted 17 times. His average pass was good for 9.18 yards. Namath completed 15 for touchdowns but had 17 inter- cepted and averaged 8.28 yards per pass. Don Meredith looks for receiver in Cowboys' drill inge Bowl .., Qattos team worked out in Expect 50,000 r or s, Vikings MIAMI (AP) - The disap- pointed Dallas Cowboys and the surprising Minnesota Vikings battle for the National Football League's, consolation prize Sun- day before an expected crowd of 50,000 fans in the Orange Bowl. They call it the NFL Playoff Championship, a game between the second place teams of the Eastern and Western confer- ences. Most of the receipts from the game go into the players' pension fund. The game was invented by the players in 1961 when the Detroit Lions defeated the Cleveland Browns, 17-16. The Western run- nerup has won seven of the eight games played. The St. Louis Cardinals of 1965 were the only Eastern winner. * * There isn't much at stake ex- cept the pride of a good per- formance for some of pro foot- ball's finest. Each member of the winning team earns $1,200, and each loser, $500. An esti- mated $175,000 is put into the pension fund. Artistically, the game shapes up as a test of Dallas' great of- fense against Minnesota's solid defense, bulwarked by the tough front four of ends Carl Eller and Jim Marshall and tackles Gary Larsen and Alan Page. The Cowboys, directed by quarter- back Don Meredith, were the top offensive team in the league. Meredith completed 171 of 309 passes for 2,500 yards and 21 touchdowns in the Cowboys' un- successful bid to gain the NFL title. Dallas Coach Tom Landry admits he's eager to see how Meredith rebounds from one of the quarterback's biggest foot- ball disappointments—the 31-20 loss to Cleveland in the Eastern championship game. Landry said Meredith usually bounces back. "It frill be Inter- esting to watch," iaid the Dal- las coach. "He'll be up against as tough a rushing ( line as we've got in this league*. "He's gone through a lot of disappoint- ments. What effect this (the Cleveland game) will have, re- mains to be seen. I think he'll come back." In addition to Iferedith, Dal- las counts on pass receivers Bob Hayes, Pettis Wurman and Lance Rentzel, and the running of Don Perkins and Craig Bayn- ham. Its defensive line is one of the toughest in the league with such standouts at Larry Cole, Jethro Pugh, Bo>- Lilly and George Adrie up ffont, and Mel Renfro, Mike Gaetcher and Cornell Green in the secondary. Landry says h* hopes his team comes backf strong from its Cleveland loss, but he's care- ful to note that the Cowboys have put in a fun-Work week in Miami Beach. "HaVre enjoying ourselves here ia Florida and we don't have thai 24 hour con- centration you need for a top game. They (the Mayers) seem in good spirits, wfcich probably is a good sign they'll play well. We'll see." Coach Bud Gent's Vikings appear to be in a feetler psycho- logical frame of ifind. The Vik- ings weren't supposed to be here according to pre-season predictions. They svere selected to finish among the also-rans in the Central Division. Minnesota, hoajever, posted an 8-6 record, wonlts division ti- tle and moved forward as one of the coming young teams in the NFL. The Viking^ lost a hard fought 24-14 ganif to Baltimore for the Western Conference ti- tle. This is Minnesota's first post-season competition. The Vikings came into the league in 1961.

THE ALLEGHENY College football team, which boasts a host of Western New York tal- ent, has received official con- gratulations from the Pennsyl- vania House of Representatives. The resolution passed by the House eitetT the Gators' "ex- citing come-from-behind foot- ball", making special note of Allegheny's 38-32 rallying vic- tory over Thiel in the cham- pionship game of the Presi- dents' Athletic Conference. The document was presented recently to Coach John Chuck- ran and his tri-captains, one of whom is star end John Bough- ton, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold G. Boughtoa of the Town of Tonawanda. BOUGHTON, who played at Kenmore West, teamed with a former St. Joseph's of Buffalo standout, Mike Ganey. to set several Allegheny^ pass re- ceiving records. Ganey is the son of Mr. and Mrs. George Ganey of Kenmore. Other WNYers with the Ga- tors were Mike Creenan, son of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Creenan, also of Kenmore; Conn Smith, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Smith of Grand Island; Dave Wilson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Wilson of Niagara Falls; John Lyth. son of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Lyth of Tonawanda; Pat Bobo, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Bobo of Niagara Falls, and Don Alvarez, son of Mr. and Mrs. Sebastian Alvarez of Niagara Falls. NIAGARA Frontier athletes are well represented on the sports rasters at St. John Fish- er College hi Rochester. Dick Hessinger of Kenmore, a graduate of O'Hara, is a starter with the Cardinals' basketball varsity, and Mark Vingoe, for- mer Tirnon standout, is a mem- ber of the school's varsity wres- tling team. Two more graduates of the Msgr. Martin Catholic League are working with the St. John Fisher basketball frosh. They are Bill Coppola of Canisius High and former Timon star Larry Schulz. NOTES Former Niagara Falls standout Jessie Jefferson is captaining the Utah State varsity cage team . . . Cleve- land State, a Buffalo State fee for the last few years, plans a 20,000-seat arena for its expand- ing program. Diyton will re- place its 5.900-seat fieldhouse with a 12,000-seat structure.

; one of MorralTs favorite targets ha recent games, draws Johnny Sample, 6-1, 204, or Cornell Gor­don, 6-0, 187, who replaced him against Oakland after Fred Bil-etnikoff beat Sample a few times. Free safety Bill Baird, 5-10, 180, roams the range depend­ing on the type of defense used.

The linebacking trio of Ralph Baker, 6-3, 235, on the left side, Atkinson in the middle and Lar­ry Grantham, 6-0, 212, on the right side, must pick up the backs coming through for a pass, help out the corner men and turn in the running game.

The Colts have run the ball more this year with Merrall, in­stead of Unitas, at the controls. They scored all four touchdowns on the ground against Cleve­land. Tom Matte, 6-0, 214, their versatile halfback who can run, catch and throw the ball, as. well as block, is the big threat, Jerry Hill, 5-11, 215, handi­capped by injuries in late sea­son, is a superior blocker and strong runner.

New York's running game ac­counted for 22 touchdowns, an AFL high, with fullback Matt Shell, 6-2, 219, doing the heavy duty with Emerson Boozer, 5-11, 202, to the outside.

Summarizing the two clubs, Baltimore scored 56 touchdowns and gave up only 16. New York scored 45 but gave up 36, al­though they ranked first in total defensive yardage. • Morrall threw 26 touchdown passes in regular season and was intercepted 17 times. His average pass was good for 9.18 yards. Namath completed 15 for touchdowns but had 17 inter­cepted and averaged 8.28 yards per pass.

Expect 50,000 r or s, Vikings

MIAMI (AP) - The disap­pointed Dallas Cowboys and the surprising Minnesota Vikings battle for the National Football League's, consolation prize Sun­day before an expected crowd of 50,000 fans in the Orange Bowl.

They call it the NFL Playoff Championship, a game between the second place teams of the Eastern and Western confer­ences. Most of the receipts from the game go into the players' pension fund.

The game was invented by the players in 1961 when the Detroit Lions defeated the Cleveland Browns, 17-16. The Western run-nerup has won seven of the eight games played. The St. Louis Cardinals of 1965 were the only Eastern winner.

• * * There isn't much at stake ex­

cept the pride of a good per­formance for some of pro foot­ball's finest. Each member of the winning team earns $1,200, and each loser, $500. An esti­mated $175,000 is put into the pension fund.

Artistically, the game shapes up as a test of Dallas' great of­fense against Minnesota's solid defense, bulwarked by the tough front four of ends Carl Eller and Jim Marshall and tackles Gary Larsen and Alan Page. The Cowboys, directed by quarter­back Don Meredith, were the top offensive team in the league.

Meredith completed 171 of 309 passes for 2,500 yards and 21 touchdowns in the Cowboys' un­successful bid to gain the NFL title. Dallas Coach Tom Landry admits he's eager to see how Meredith rebounds from one of the quarterback's biggest foot­ball disappointments—the 31-20 loss to Cleveland in the Eastern championship game.

Landry said Meredith usually

bounces back. "It frill be Inter­esting to watch," iaid the Dal­las coach. "He'll be up against as tough a rushing(line as we've got in this league*. "He's gone through a lot of disappoint­ments. What effect this (the Cleveland game) will have, re­mains to be seen. I think he'll come back."

In addition to Iferedith, Dal­las counts on pass receivers Bob Hayes, Pettis Wurman and Lance Rentzel, and the running of Don Perkins and Craig Bayn-ham. Its defensive line is one of the toughest in the league with such standouts a t Larry Cole, Jethro Pugh, Bo>- Lilly and George Adrie up ffont, and Mel Renfro, Mike Gaetcher and Cornell Green in the secondary.

Landry says h* hopes his team comes backf strong from its Cleveland loss, but he's care­ful to note that the Cowboys have put in a fun-Work week in Miami Beach. "HaVre enjoying ourselves here ia Florida and we don't have thai 24 hour con­centration you need for a top game. They (the Mayers) seem in good spirits, wfcich probably is a good sign they'll play well. We'll see."

Coach Bud Gent's Vikings appear to be in a feetler psycho­logical frame of ifind. The Vik­ings weren't supposed to be here according to pre-season predictions. They svere selected to finish among the also-rans in the Central Division.

Minnesota, hoajever, posted an 8-6 record, wonlts division ti­tle and moved forward as one of the coming young teams in the NFL. The Viking^ lost a hard fought 24-14 ganif to Baltimore for the Western Conference ti­tle. This is Minnesota's first post-season competition. The Vikings came into the league in 1961.

THE ALLEGHENY College football team, which boasts a host of Western New York tal­ent, has received official con­gratulations from the Pennsyl­vania House of Representatives.

The resolution passed by the House eitetT the Gators' "ex­citing come-from-behind foot­ball", making special note of Allegheny's 38-32 rallying vic­tory over Thiel in the cham­pionship game of the Presi­dents' Athletic Conference.

The document was presented recently to Coach John Chuck-ran and his tri-captains, one of whom is star end John Bough-ton, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold G. Boughtoa of the Town of Tonawanda.

BOUGHTON, who played at Kenmore West, teamed with a former St. Joseph's of Buffalo standout, Mike Ganey. to set several Allegheny^ pass r e ­ceiving records. Ganey is the son of Mr. and Mrs. George Ganey of Kenmore.

Other WNYers with the Ga­tors were Mike Creenan, son of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Creenan, also of Kenmore; Conn Smith, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Smith of Grand Island; Dave Wilson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Wilson of Niagara Falls; John Lyth. son of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Lyth of Tonawanda; Pat Bobo, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Bobo of Niagara Falls, and Don Alvarez, son of Mr. and Mrs. Sebastian Alvarez of Niagara Falls.

NIAGARA Frontier athletes are well represented on the sports rasters at St. John Fish­er College hi Rochester.

Dick Hessinger of Kenmore, a graduate of O'Hara, is a starter with the Cardinals' basketball varsity, and Mark Vingoe, for­mer Tirnon standout, is a mem­ber of the school's varsity wres­tling team.

Two more graduates of the Msgr. Martin Catholic League are working with the St. John Fisher basketball frosh. They are Bill Coppola of Canisius High and former Timon star Larry Schulz.

NOTES — Former Niagara Falls standout Jessie Jefferson is captaining the Utah State varsity cage team . . . Cleve­land State, a Buffalo State fee for the last few years, plans a 20,000-seat arena for its expand­

ing program. Diyton will re­place its 5.900-seat fieldhouse with a 12,000-seat structure. That should alienate the kind of pressure for tifekets that has resulted in 180 ttraight home game sell-outs . j . The Louis­ville freshman team has the Missouri Valley area buzzing.
