Show HHC, MPs Win Openers Flag Football Starts; The intramural football season got off with a bang last week as HHC blasted the Met Team 20-- 0 and the MPs dumped die Hospital 12-- on opening . night. , 0 IN THE lid lifter HHC showed a strong defense lxth in the air and on the ground. Safety man Duane Drake got HHC off to a fast start as he cut in front of a Met receiver, picked off a pass and scooted 25 yards into the comer of the end zone for the first touchdown of the year. Eddie Fosters try for the extra point was partially blocked. John Howe provided HHC with its second touchdown with another interception. Late in the first quarter, Howe snatched a pass over the middle and dashed 20 yards to the end zone. HHC ran for the extra points and halfback Dave McKain got them mi a sweep around right end. The Mets the ball mi the kick-of- f and returned it to d their own line. A couple of plays later halfback Doug Moe took a perfectly executed got 30-yar- screen pass from Jeff Nelson and roared down the sidelines behind a hoard of blockers for an apparent touchdown. Unfortunately for Moe, the play was called back on a penalty. Previously, Nelson had ripped off a long dash around right end only A to have it called back by a clipping penalty. THE SCORING in the penalty-marred contest was completed in the third period when HHC quarterback John Pleasant scrambled 42 yards through the Met defense. A run for die extra points failed. In the second game the MPs kept the Hospital bottled up for most of the game with a fine pass rush and good coverage in the secondary. The Hospital also managed to hold off the sputtering MP offense in check and the first half ended in a scoreless tie. The MPs concentrated their scoring in the third period. Early in the quarter, halfback Jim Todd broke loose off the right side, cut hack and weaved and d dodged his way to a touchdown. The attempt for the extra point failed. LATER IN the period, Gerry Tarter got a step on the hospital safety man and made a nice catch of Mike Simmer's pass for a 44 yard touchdown (day. Once again the try for the extra points failed, but the MP defense stiffened and held the Hospital in their own end of the field for most of the rest of the game. The next night the Officers made their initial appearance of the season and defeated the It was a defensive Hospital battle all the way. The Officers gave up short yardage, but the 36-yar- 6-- secondary, led by Chuck Leppert and Jack Ihnatoyya, shut off the medics long passes. The lone score in the game came on a Leppert to Chip Knowlton pass. The second game found the MPs and the Met Team lining battle in another defensive struggle. Both offensive teams sputtered and stumbled in the face of excellent defensive play. The policeman finally generated a threat in the second half and it payed off as Simmer pitched a touchdown toss to Cal Clayton for the games only score. THE WEEKS final night of action started with the first battle of unlieatens in the young season. HHC took on the MPs, who were playing their third game of the week. HHC found the end zone first when Pleasant scampered 34 yards in the first period. Pleasant also got the extra points on a rollout around left end. The MPs came right back early in the second quarter with a score of their own. A inix-uin the HHC secondary left Tarter all alone on the right side and Simmer hit him with a pass for the The play covered some 40 yards. The attempt for the extra points failed as a pass to Simmer fell incomplete. The MPs kept the pressure on through the rest of the half and into the third period, but the HHC defense held them off. Late in the third stanza. p Little Blood, But No Hard Feelings HHC widened the gap with Pleasant firing 42 yards down the middle to McKain. The try for points failed. THE MPs continued to pressure the HHC defense, but HHC held and finally stopped the policemen on downs with 25 seconds left. In the final game of the week, the Officers defeated the Met The Met offense was Team 6-stymied at every tum by the strong Officer defense. Max Ware and Jim Davis led the defensive line and leppert turned in a strong game at safety. Leppert also set up the Offid cers touchdown with a run down to the Met eight yard line. Two plays later he hit Jim Cainpi with a short pass for the touchdown. The last two nights of first round action went as follows: MET TEAM 12, HOSPITAL 0 The Met team picked up their first victory of the year in a penalty-marred game. The Mets first score came on an Bob Brenner to Don Nicols pass in the first quarter. The touchdown was the Mets first of the year after they had suffered three shutout defeats. THE METS scored again in the third period on another Brenner to Nichols pass, this one covering 23 yards. Later in the quarter Jiin McKee stopped the Hospitals strongest threat with an interception deep in his own territory. 0. 50-yar- 18-ya- rd HUG 12. OFFICERS 6 -HHC cored first in this I rattle of unlicMteiis. Howe sprinted 22 yards through the Officer defe nse on an end around play in the second quarter. Foster's sweep around left end was stopped short of the end zone and HHC hd 64). In the third quarter the Officers evened the score on a four yard pass from 1 .op pert to Knowlton. Drake followed that pla witli one ui the most exciting plays of the young season as he gathered in the ensueing kickoff and returned it 65 yards to the Officers' 18 yard iine. The HHC offense stalled, however, and foiled to capitalize on the scoring opportunity. IN THE fourth period, Leppert provided the Officers with a I play as he intercepted an HHC pass at his own goal line and raced 75 yards to the HHC 25. HHC proved turanalioiit is fair play though, and they held off the Officers' scoring threat. McKain provided the winning points for 11HC when he got the Officers' secondary and pulled in Pleasant's long pass to complete a 54 yard scoring play. lie-hi- - MPs 26, OFFICERS 8 Simmer threw two touchdown passes and Todd scored two others to lead the MPs rout of the Officers. In the first half Simmer hit Kalinowski in the left flat and Kalinowski ran it in for a TD. latter Simmer fired Temper, temper. Welcome to the football season!

Dec. 12 Hey, first annual INTRAMURAL LEAGUE play to date, deserves nothing but superlatives nevertheless the ammunition for revenge is developing. Teams are playing the game the way it should lie played. Contests are spirited affairs with one thing in mind winning. There have been a few instances of players tempers on the rise because of a controversial play and this shouldn't lie swept under the rug. Disagreements, player mistakes, and unnecessary roughing, are no trigger for revenge. Referees should deal with this sort of action severely. Revenge in the game of football is senseless and absurd. Sure it keeps the doctors busy, but what does it accomplish? CHANTS FROM the crowd should lie inspiring, but fans should remenilier that those cries should be for victory not blood. In the days ahead many football games are going to be played both on the high school and intramural levels. Both the players and the fans are going to have a chance to show their cool. Reinemlier, football isn't a dirty game, nor is it rough. f - 1970 NCAA TV Schedule 5-- Ted McIntosh (R) defeated Tim Brown to win the 1970 tramural tennis championship. . . a flares of temper?

The American Football Conference should have two very close races this year, although one will be of little significance to the playoff situation. KANSAS CITY and Oakland should make the tournament, one as division champ and the other as the second place finisher with the best record. Cleveland should take the Central section with little trouble, lmt the East could be a mess. Hie Jets and Colts are the favorites, but dont discount Miami. This race should go right to the final day of the season when the Jets face the Colts in pre-seas- ir Baltimore. AFC WE ST i The Chiefs have it all; an excellent, U smooth and lml anted offense to go with a rough, tough ,and consistent defense. They could be hurt by injuries at I JOHN HOWE i the receiving positions, comer back and defensive end due to lack of depth. w t excellent n group of receivers. Add a solid corps ground troops and a line that has played together for three years and the offense should do the job. On defense the front four is in a bind. Theyve lost Dan Birdwell (injured) and Ike Lassiter (traded) and theyll lie tough to replace. Hie linehackers are unnoticed, but effective and the secondary can stand up with any in the league. Sun Diego has brilliant receivers, a fine runner in of ? sure-hande- d four-ma- Dick Post and two good quarterbacks. The line should lie in good shape if the guard position opposite Walt Sweeney can lie filled. Defensively the only lineman is Steve DeLong, unless someone blossoms, and the backer corps needs a healthy Bob Babich to be properly effective. In the secondary Jim Hill and Boh Howard are eood. but thev need Dartners. The Broncos have excellent receivers in Al Denson and Jim Whalen and solid runners, blit the QB situation is fair at best. The line should do well in its third season as a unit. On defense the Broncs have a fine front four, but their support is questionable. The linebackers have been inconsistent and Salien is still looking for the right combination. The deep backs should get along well enough with sophomores Charlie Greer and Bill Thompson combining with vets Paul Martha and either Cornell Cordon or Booker Edgerson. AFC CENTRAL: The Browns have capable fine receivers and an excellent running game led by Leroy Kelly. The line is one of pro football's finest as Joe Taffoni has replaced the retired Monte Clark at tackle and the rest of the names remain the same as the past several years. The defensive team has undergone some changes, but should not be any less effective. Rookie Jerry Sherk has replaced the traded Jim Kanicki and linebackers Dale Lindsey and Jim Houston have swapped positions, putting Iloustin on the middle. The deep backs are consistent and tough to lieat deep with old Erich Barnes as the ringleader. The Oilers offense looks good with a gang of surehanded receivers, consistent (though slow) runners and a solid line. Charley Johnson appears to have recovered y his form, no easy task, and has had the offense moving. Defensively, the front four is somewhat AFC EASTi The Jets are a passing team, built to g, pre-Arm- ride the arm of Joe Willie Whiteshoes. The receivers are unreal and getting better while the massive line provides the protection J. W. needs. Hie offensive key, though, is the backs. They' must run well enough to keep the heat off Namath, block for him against the blitz and still find time to get into some pass patterns. Defensively, Gerry Philbin is out until mid Octolier leaving John Elliott as the wily consistent pass rusher. Hie backers are quiet, but effective. The secondary has been a real sore spot. Rookies must produce here or it title. The Colts have creaky QBs, but Johnny U. will probably stay in one piece for the season and that will lie catch enough. The line is solid and the receivers can with just about anylxxly. Tom Matte is a reliable runner, but he needs help from rookie Norm Bulaich. Dej fensively the pass rush is badly inconsistent, but the linebackers are young and smart. The safeties are vets, but the corners are youngsters and that could spell unsettled, but will probably lie adequate. George Webster leads an otherwise unspectacular linebacking crew. The deep backs have a bunch of potential, but they must get used to playing together. Paul Browns Bengal are an enthusiastic, aggressive crew and are capable of sneaking up on anylxxly. The line is young and good, as are the runners, but the receivers, except Bob Trumpy, are just fair. Sam Wyche should hold his own at QB in the absence of Greg Cook. The young front four will have their troubles early, but y as they learn they will become a good group. Bill is an excellent middle backer, but die outside men are just fair. In the secondary, Ken Graham will try to guide three youngsters through a world of demon pass receivers. The Pittsburgh Steclers have the gpod young QB is good-by- e Ber-ge- trouble. The Dolphins will ride the right arm of Bob Criese and the hands of Paul Warfield. Hie line is adequate and the runners are tough and consistent, though they are a bit slow. Defensively one half of the front line is solid, liut the rest remains a question. The backers are adequate outside and Buoniconti is a tough middle man. In the secondary, it is a case of strong safeties and questionable corner backs. HIE PATRIOTS have fine runners in Jim Nance and Carl Garrett, a good line and a fine receiver in Ron Sellers. After that the offense is merely adequate. The defensive line had been questionable at end, but it looks Pearson should they need in Terry Bradshaw and Preston and Earl Iloak Dick aided the by running, improve Gros. The line is weak at guard and tight end. The wide receivers are only fair unless Willie Richardson returns to form. The front four led by Mean Joe Greene and Ben McGee is a rough one. Unfortunately, the name of in the Andy Russell is the only one of any consequence and of blend is a youth The secondary linelwcking corps. vets that should hold its own through aggressiveness, solid now. The linebackers play the run 1 letter than the The pass and, more unfortunately, so do the cornermen. safeties are smart and tough. The Buffalo franchise has O. J. Simpson and that is about it. The offensive line is shuffled and confused, a barely adequate group. Haven Maxes is the only proven, quality receiver and there is no proven quarterback. O. J.s partners are lacking, too. Defensively, the line should lie solid with three vets and rookie Al Cowlings. The linebackers are good enough, lmt the secondary lost a safety and a corner. Only Butch Byrd can lie regarded as a solid performer. I |
