He qualifies as football's "Mr. Comeback." Blanda served an unspectacular apprenticeship at the University of Kentucky fore being drafted by the Chicago Bears ofthe National Foptball League. From 1949 to 1951, he was the specialist who ran out to kick field goals and extra points, then trotted back to the bench. In 1952, however, the Bears became fair game for even the weak sisters in the league, and coach-ownGeorge Halas reached down in the barrel and pulled out his No. 3 .quarterback for a game against Detroit.

But on occasion, he has exploded: "I had a bellyful of nothing but kicking!" And his distaste is apparent when he talks about being a "stand-b- y quarterback." Family considerations played a part in Blanda's "retirement," too. "My wife Betty didn't like the iiiea s&- me being away from home so much, especially with our two found being children growing up.
