And that was Baltimore's only touchdown until the game saving plays by Logan and Matte.

King Hilt and Concannon had directed Philadelphia to two second quarter touchdowns, and as Unilas failed to come up with the bomb, the Eagles appeared on the way to an upset until Baltimore's big break came. Despite a record advance ticket sale, attendance at this seventh game in the National Football League series was only 58,088 more than 7,000 below last year. The Baltimore victory was the second in a row in the Orange Bowl for the Colts and the sixth for the NFL Western Conference runner-up.

Wheth er the upstart American Football League can make game ol it against the established NFL is only part of the story. The big story, Madison Avenuers tell you, is be- ween the National Broadcasting Company and the Columbia Broadcasting System. Both networks will carry the same game, using, I hear, the same cameras, but with different announcers on each network.

So, besides a football game, it becomes a rating game, but you'd never guess it to listen to the advance blurbs. Each station makes it seem, without actually mak ing the claim, that it will have the Super Bowl telecas exclusively. But the business of advertising a "double header," with the Harlem Globe Trotters in the firs- half of the doublcheader, seems a bit sneaky. The Trot ters play nothing but exhibitions, and to put them on footing with the football players, who will play for serious money, seems rather insulting to the pro football teams. Monric Silver, president of the Rochester Red Wings, is in Florida, but he lias been following the news from Syracuse carefully.

Silver's assistant, Bob Turner, told him last week that the Chiefs had gone over the $100,000 mark in their stock drive, and Morric asked that Syracusans be given his congratulations. "However," writes Turner, "Morrie asked me to pass on his feeling that the original goal of 4,000 stockholders be kept in sight, since this is most important, as he stated at the league meeting in Syracuse. "As you know," Turner continues, "Rochester has over 8,200 shareholders and Movric believes that this is a big reason and a very solid foundation for the success of organized baseball in Rochester. His admonition is--keep up the good work and get those 4,000 shareholders. Then, go out and get another 4,000." It's good to report that the numbers are climbing in both regards.

Mr. and Mrs Ben Botnick travelevd on to Miami where, two days lat er, they saw the Orange Bowl game. In a post-card from 84-degree Miami Beach, Ben quipped; "Had my cereal in a glass today.

No more bowls." Well, hardly any. Now that we've also had the Hul Bowl, ihe Senior Bowl and the Runncr-Up Bowl, abou all that's left is the Super Bowl and the Pro Bowl. That "catch-up rule" in some of the exhibitioi "all-star" games certainly adds excitement, but it' hardly football as we've used to it.
