In those five games, Falcon quarterback Steve Bartkowski has thrown just one TD pass and the Falcons have scored more than 10 points just once.

But that was to be the Eagles last hurrah. Salt Lake Coach Tom Webster was able to mix a little pleasure with business in the Eagles return trip to Milwaukee Sunday. Webster stopped by Milwaukee County General Hospital to see rookie defenseman Gary Stewart, who is recuperating nicely from emergency heart surgery and could be released from the hospital in the next three or four days. Stewart and Golden Eagle teammate Eric Magnuson were involved in a stabbing incident at 3 a.m. last Monday in Milwaukee after allegedly being robbed of $250. Stewarts life was threatened when he sustained a lacerated coronary artery after allegedly being stabbed by Cheryl Denise Larkin, 24, of Milwaukee. Larkin has been charged by Milwaukee police with attempted murder and theft in the case.
