Friday. 1978 Swedish Stars 'Good', But Question Remains Herald Scoreboard Series Schedule 0 edge late in the first period, the Rangers fell victim to the outstanding goaltending of Bernie Parent and the superior Flyer checking. "I was happy to get a tie,' said New York Fred Shero, who was facing for the first time the team he coached to a pair of Stanley Cup championships and four divisional titles. "We checked in the first period and we didn't in the second That wae the dif ference " Shero said he plans to let the Swedes do a little more roaming in the offensive zone if they continue to play as well as they did in the opener. "They throw the puck around pretty Association7 well." he said "We'll see how it works "As far as stats go," said Nilsson, "I out." never worry about those things.

After all, the Jayhawks can't really match the most powerful college foot- included the 0 rout of Texas, should have things its own way in this Big Eight game especially since the Kansas defense is suspect. Oklahoma leads the nation in rushing offense with a 413.8 yards a game average and is the scoring leader at 45.8 points a game. Kansas has yielded an average of 29.4 points a game with a porous defense. Quarterback Tomas Lott and fullback Kenny King were listed as doubtful starters after suffering injuries in the Texas game but Coach Barry Switzer isn't too concerned. He has running back Billy Sims, among the top 20 ground gainers with 551 yards. Sims has scored nine touchdowns, second highest total in the country.

Atlanta NY Islanders Philadelphia NY Rangers Sooners. And they know it. "There's no doubt in my mind that Oklahoma is the best team in the country," admits Kansas Coach Bud Moore. "They have all the ingredients of a national champion size, speed, quickness, depth and experience." Letdowns can happen and have led to some great upsets in the past, but even if Oklahoma is a little slow in getting started, Kansas may still find itself with a task akin to catching a runaway truck.

Both clubs have gone the free agent route and are sporting a "new-look- " image. Coach Willis Reed, who threatened Knick brass that he would resign if he wasn't given a big center to work with, got his wish in Marvin Webster, a center who defected from the Seattle SuperSonics for S3 million. The Rockets, now with Rick Barry at forward, are vastly improved as well. Calvin Murphy, the little guard who averaged better than 25 points per game last season, should loosen up defenses sufficiently for Barry to have operating room. It will also be interesting to note the success of Rudy Tomjanovich, the gifted forward who missed virtually all of last season thanks to the fist of Kermit Washington. Rounding out the opening night's sked, Cleveland is at Boston, New Jersey at Detroit, San Antonio at Denver, Atlanta at Indiana, San Diego at Phoenix and Chicago at Seattle. San Diego is the old Buffalo franchise that was transferred to the west coast when Y'ork. 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 L W 10 10 Vancouver Louis 0 Chicago Colorado Soccer t Louis Buvnak on loan lkiikr League 63 80 105 134 2 0 0 San 2 4 0 1 5 0 Diego 2 667 667 500 333 167 0 1 15 1 18 107- - 94 1 1 1 1 St GF 0 2 5 2 4 1 1 4 4 0 10 0 8 2 0 L list Montreal Washington Los Angeles 0 0 0 1 9 0 0 2 L W 10 10 Toronto 8 GF Boston Buffalo Minnesota 2 Pts.

The league opens with new coaches at Chicago (Larry Costello), Detroit (Dick Vitale), Kansas City (Cotton Fitzsimmons) and San Diego (Gene Shue), but starts without Portland s exciting vegetarian, Bill Walton, who may be sidelined for most of the season because of the foot that was broken during the 1978 playoffs and hasn't healed. Some familiar faces have changed uniforms this season. Barry, who holds the unique distinction of being the only player to win the NBA and the old American Basketball Association scoring titles, left Golden State to sign with Houston as a free agent. The Warriors were awarded John Lucas as compensation. The presence of Barry creates a natural scoring rivalry in the Central Division between the forward and defending champion George Gervin of San Antonio. Webster cost the Knicks Lonnie Shelton, who was awarded to the Sonics as compensation.
