Perhaps they don't in print but behind the scenes they question the moves of the master juggler. "Teddy is killing the kids in the bullpen," said one of the traveling writers. "The five relievers have 26 decisions that's too In his defense, Williams said, "Hell, all I want from my starters are six strong innings" and "It's funny we're credited with having a strong bullpen every year." On strategy, a Texas writer faulted Williams for a decision over the holiday weekend in Kansas City.

On other matters: "The biggest disappointment this year is the hitting in the American League.

"Dick Billings should absolutely be picked for the All-Star team and so should Toby Harrah." Olympics' sprinters surprises Associated Press EUGENE, Ore. Four years ago, when i Smith was running off with the gold medal at 200 meters in the Mexico City Olympics, Larry Burton was a high school football player and Chuck Smith a nonathlete in his junior year in college.

Today they head the U.S. Olympic 200-meter dash team in one of the stunning reversals of form coming out of the men's track and field trials here. "I didn't even know this was an Olympic year until one of my teammates said I should go for the trials," said the 20-year-old Burton, a phenomenon in his first year of track. The Purdue sophomore said when he heard the Olympics were this year, "There was so much pressure on me. I really wanted to get on that plane I would have run the mile, anything.

The manager of the Texas Rangers watching his team take batting practice in Memorial Stadium was giving himself a verbal pat on the back. When the club the former Washington Senators was here in May, Williams backed President Nixon Vietnam policies so eloquently that the chief executive sent him a note of thanks and Rep. Gerald Ford (R-Mich.) inserted i 1 1 i a s' remarks in the Congressional Record.

However, he was more subdued than usual this weekend. Asked to comment on current events he said: "I hope that (Bobby) Fischer beats that (censored) Russian in chess)." But he had no comment on Martha Mitchell. "I'm not as controversial as I used to be," explained Williams. Perhaps he has mellowed. "The only time he has lost his composure all year was in Boston," reported outfielder Tom Grieve.

"It wasn't so much what he said but you could see he was burning. He hates to lose up there more than anywhere. The writers dig him." That was a game in late June which Texas lost in extra innings after blowing a 7-1 lead. Also in that series Williams fined 10 of his players $100 each for late hours and called for a 0 1 morning batting practice and only five players responded. "I haven't had any blowups," Williams insisted.

"It's helped not having to read that Washington stuff.

Everyone knows that the professional usefulness of a sportsman is limited and if we don't save some money now we end up being old and without anything." All three claim that the federation's argument that it cannot pay them more is without foundation. "Either someone is fibbing or the organizers are deceiving the federation," they said. The players were to meet with federation officials last night to thrash out the dis ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT monkey's off my back and I just want to enjoy it." Smith, a swimmer in high school, started his track career with a 21.9 time for 220 yards one day in an Occidental College intramural meet. The track coach at the Los Angeles school, Dixon Farmer, saw it and "recruited" him because "I didn't have any sprinters and I figured 21.9 was pretty good." more more Smith won all three of his preliminary races here to confound the experts, then took the finals in 20.4 against a headwind. Burton clocked 20.5 "I've been planning on this ever since I left Occidental," he said "I'm trying to be real cool about this but I'm really excited." Smith says he worked out with Tommie Smith briefly two years ago and admitted he dreamed of making the Olympic team after watching Tommie in Mexico City.

Does he think experience means much in the Olympics? "Yes, hut so does determination and concentration. If you've got those things, it doesn't matter if you've run one year or 10." Burton said: "How sweet it is! We're going to give the European runners something to deal with. This will put the pressure on them. They know what to expect."
