Tyrone Daily Herald, Friday, August Page five Spotlight On Sports by LEN SLOTHER Doily Hfrold Sporli Idlter Central Pennsylvania high school football stadiums come alive with the hum of the activity of the season tonight as the lure of the reputed grand-daddy of schoolboy sports casts Its spell again. Preseason work highlighted by a couple of 'foreign' scrimmage tests behind, area gridders will be fastening the chin-straps for the reai thing with a full slate on tap for the opening weekend of the 1986 season, though In many districts the school term hasn't even begun. For fans in neighboring football-feverish communities Tyrone and Bellwood-Antis and areas embraced by those two school districts, opening-night Is always a little extra special. The focus is on the annual backyard scrap between two rivals with steep, rich football traditions. And tonight the Golden Eagles ana Blue Devils line up for their 51st meeting at Gray Field to help launch the new season.

And It means, too, it's time for those of us who get caught up in the "Autumn Madness" to fool-heartedly venture their prognostications on the outcomes of these weekend football wars on newspaper sports pages to begin their annual fling at Pickin' 'Em (guessln 1 'em, really). We haven't heard from our perennial challenger we're sure we will, though so we rest the Pigskin Pickin' Derby crown temporarily with the Herald Prognostlcator commanding a 4-1 advantage and a string of four straight mythical titles. Here's his first offering'for 1986. The first week's always one of the roughest. at TYRONE Bellwood-Antis has been one of the most successful teams around over the past four years, and the Blue Devils are coming off a super 1985 campaign aiming to continue the roll.

The Golden Eagles have struggled the past couple of years, but are anxious and capable of erasing the stigma that's accompanied non-winning seasons the past three. Another good one at Gray Field TYRONE 14 Bellwood-Antis 7 -ALTOONA at JOHNSTOWN A 'new era' is dawning in the home of one of the state's former schoolboy football powers.

One of the 'new looks' region fans win see this Fall is the revised format for the 62-year old Western Conference. No longer will the old league declare an and a champion. The 37-member conference has been split up into four classes.

Each win means an additional four points and each tie is worth two points. Somehow we knew we'd be hearing from our adversary, primed for another battle with the Herald Prognosticator.

"Mel-the-Greek" even beat the opening whistle, barely, when he buzzed the Herald sports desk at this mqr.ning's dawning with his annual challenge. Willing to give it another shot in a feud that's become as traditional as the season itself, the irrepressible "Greek" has four of the 15 games on the opening-week pickin' chart marked the opposite. His card has Curwensville over West Branch, Montoursville over Bellefonte, Kish. over Chief Logan and Bradford over Clearfield: SPORTSCOPE: Tyrone will have a small stake in the Women's Slo- Pitch Softball World Series in Cincinnati, Ohio this weekend.

Augustana has won the last three Division III titles. McMahon Highlights fxhlbltlon Sat. Af N.D. Stadium Jim Kelly vs. Jim McMahon.

That matchup will take place on a limited basis Saturday at Notre Dame Stadium when the Buffalo Bills and Chicago Bears conclude their exhibition seasons. It is uncertain how much Kelly and McMahon will play Saturday, but time is running out on their preparation for the regular season. McMahon, who took the Bears to the Super Bowl championship last season, hasn't practiced or played in three weeks because of a hip injury. Kelly hasn't played an NFL down but last week became the highest paid player in league history when he signed with the Bills. "This game will answer the question of whether you can go through a training camp without playing and practicing and be effective," Chicago Coach Mike Ditka said.

McMahon is expected to start Saturday and play at least one half. Bills Coach Hank Bullough hopes to build Buffalo's future on Kelly, the USFL's leading passer who signed with the Bills last week. Kelly shunned the NFL after graduating from Miami in 1983 in favor of the USFL's Houston Last season he completed 360- of-576 passes for 4,623 yards, 39 touch, downs and 19 interceptions. "1 don't have any idea how much he'll play, but he'll be playing." said Bullough, who is starting his first full season as Buffalo's head coach. "Jim Kelly is not our answer right today or tomorrow.

But Jim Kelly is something to build the future on. We don't expect him to be a miracle worker, but he gives us a good solid foundation to build upon." The exhibition is a charity game for the 1987 International Summer Special Olympics. In other news. Houston General Manager Ladd Herzeg says the Oilers are willing to make first-round pick Jim Everett the highest paid player in the draft, but called Everett's asking price "illogical." Everett, a quarterback from Purdue, is the only unsigned first- round pick from the 1986 draft, and the two sides are between $300,000 and $400,000 apart. Herzeg said Everett's latest proposal is for a four-year.

S2.75 million deal. Nose tackle Tony Casillas. the second-pick in the draft, received a-fouryear contract worth $2.35 million from the Atlanta Falcons. Casillas is the highest paid of the NFL's 1986 draft picks. Also.

St. Louis signed defensive back Dennis Thurman two days after he was waived by the Cowboys. Cardinals Coach Gene Stallings had been the secondary coach in Dallas from 1972-85. Thurman joined the Cowboys in 1978 and intercepted 36 passes in his career there. i Seattle released veteran fullback John A.

Williams and placed tackle Ron Essink on the physically disabled list. The moves allowed the Seahawks to activate cornerback Kerry Justin and open a roster spot for newly acquired offensive tackle Mike Wilson for Friday night's exhibition game against the San Francisco 49ers. Philadelphia waived punter Mike Horan and signed barefooted punter John Teltschick. who was recently released by the Bears. Horan.

the Eagles punter the past two seasons, averaged 38.5 yards on 11 punts in three exhibition games, Teltschick's 12 punts for the Bears in exhibitions averaged 42.4 yards. Tackle Jim Juriga, Denver's fourth-round draft pick, had surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left knee and will be out for the season. Pittsburgh cut guard Emil Boures and signed cornerback Donnie Elder, who was picked up on waivers from the New York Jets. Jets Out-Shoot fagles, 37 to 30 PHILADELPHIA (UPI) Pat Ryan threw two touchdown passes and Ken O'Brien tossed one Thursday night to lead the New York Jets to a 37-30 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in a preseason game. Ryan, who completed 12 of 17 passes for 214 yards, hit Johnny Hector with TD passes of 14 and 21 yards and O'Brien connected with Al Toon on a 71-yard score.

The Jets, who finished the preseason 2-2, also scored on an 88' yard kickoff return by Bobby Humphrey and got field goals of 20,50 and 26 yards from Pat Leahy. The Eagles, 1-3, scored on two touchdown passes by Randall Cunningham, 26 yards to John Spagnola and 9 yards to Junior Tautalatasi, a 1- yard sneak by quarterback Ron Jaworski, a 53-yard run by Tautalatasi and a 44-yard field goal byPaulMcFadden. Ryan's 14-yard scoring pass to Hector capped a 92-yard, 10-play drive as the Jets took a 27-13 lead one minute into the fourth quarter. Ryan hit Kurt Sohn with a 58-yard pass on a third-and-15 from his own 15 to keep the drive alive and connected with Hector for the TD pass four plays later. But the Eagles came right back, going 74 yards in only six plays as Cunningham hit Ron Johnson for a 36- yard gain, ran for 17 yards and then found Tautalatasi in the front corner of the end zone after eluding two would-be tacklers to bring Philadelphia within 27-20.

Leahy's 22-yard field goal with 6:14 to play came after the Jets failed to score a touchdown on three tries from inside the Eagles 10-yard line. Cunningham again sparked the Eagles, however, moving 52 yards in four plays, to bring Philadelphia within 30-27 with 4:48 to play. He scrambled away from trouble in the backfield before finding Spagnola for the touchdown. Dozier Wants To End PS Career With A Bang ByJOECIALlNI UP1 Sports Writer UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. (UP!) D.J.

Dozler. who has largely failed to meet expectations caused by hjs outstanding performance as a freshman, wants to make up for all the disappointments as he ends his Penn State career. Dozier. a tailback who gained 1,002 yards as a freshman, was slowed by injuries in his sophomore and junior seasons and limited to 691 and 723 yard's rushing. Completely healthy now, Dozier can become the first Nlttany Lion to lead Penn State in rushing for four straight years and needs only 983 yards to become the leading rusher in school history.

His goal for his senior year, however, is even more demanding 1 "to play a whole seas6n and try to be the best that's ever been," The 6-1, 204-pound Dozier appears ready for the challenge he's created for himself. "It's not a goal, really," he said. "It's something to put in front of you. You want to be the best, go out and play like it. Go out and do it.

Go out and work hard and prove it." Many expected Dozier to be the best when he arrived at the Penn State campus. Coach Joe Paterno has made no secret that he believes freshmen should neither be seen nor heard. Nevertheless, Dozier became the first freshman in Penn State history to gain more than 1,000 yards. He set freshman records for most. consecutive 100-yard games (five), rushing yardage in a game (196 against Rutgers), all-purpose yardage (1,191 land points scored (48).

But an early season ankle injury was an indicator of what was to come in the next two years. In 1984, Dozier suffered a groin injury in Penn State's first game and reinjured it when he tried to return to action. All told, he sat out three full games before finishing the season with a flourish rushing for 159. 108 and 143 yards in the last three weeks. In 1985, a hamstring injury caused Dozier to miss two games and parts 0.

J. Ooilcr Orioles Blow Two 9th-lnning A's Sweep ByJOEILLUZZI UPI Sports Writer The Baltimore Orioles have picked the wrong time to become discombobulated. "When we get pitching, we don't get hitting. And when we get hitting, we don't get pitching," Baltimore Manager Earl Weaver said Thursday night after Don Aase blew two ninth- inning leads, and the Oakland A's swept, a doubleheader from the Orioles. "If we could switch it around, we'd be in first place by now.

1 Instead the Orioles are in fifth place, 9'i! games behind the Boston Red Sox in the American League The Orioles have also lost the first four games on an ll-game West Coast trip. Baltimore, which has dropped nine of its last 11 games, could find itself out of the race if the trip continues like this. Aase, who is tied for the major- league lead with 31 saves, gave up a two-run homer to Dave Kingman in the opener, which Oakland won 5-4, and a. two-run triple to Carney Lansford for an 8-7 Oakland victory in BASEBALL STANDINGS NATIONAL LEAGUE East Pet.

"It was a tough way to win, coming back in the ninth two games in a row," Oakland Manager Tony LaRussa said. "They were two good games because we won both of them. We came in the clubhouse feeling good and a lot of people helped make it happen." The A's rallied for three runs in the second game. Pinch hitter Jerry Willard walked and Alfredo Griffin singled to knock out Rich Bordi in favor of Aase, 5-6. Bruce Bochte greeted Aase with a single to load the bases.

Jose Canseco's sacrifice fly scored Willard and sent Griffin to third to make it 7-6. Kingman (lied out, to short right, with the runners holding. Lansford' then lined the first pitch down the right field line for the game- winning triple. "The ball was in, it was good pitch for (Aase)," Lansford said. "I just fought it off.

1 knew he was going to come after me with a hard fastball, so I went up there with the idea of trying to hit it hard, somewhere. The odds caught up with guess I lucked out. "When it skidded by the outfielder, 1 knew we had a chance. I just wanted to make sure that we got one run in to tie it." In the opener, the A's trailed 4-3 entering the ninth. Alfredo Griffin led off with a single off of Aase.

Aase then struck out Lansford and Canseco before Kingman hit an 0-1 pitch over the left-field fence for his 30th home run. "Dave told me he felt real good," Lansford said. "He was swinging the bat good. I'm not surprised at how well he played. Those were two amazing games." Elsewhere in the AL, Toronto trounced Cleveland 9-1, Minnesota downed Milwaukee 6-2, Chicago defeated Texas 6-2, New York beat Seattle 4-2 and California topped Detroit 4-2.

There were no National League games. Blue At Cleveland, Jim Clancy surrendered nine hits and Tony Fernandez and George Bell each collected four hits to spark surging Toronto. The defending AL Bast champion Blue Jays extended their winning streak to five games and moved within games of division- leading Boston. TwinsS, Brewers 2 At Milwaukee, Gary Gaetti had four hits, including his 27th homer, and drove in four runs to lead Minnesota. It was Gaetti's third four-hit game of the year and he has a careerhigh 85 RBI.

Winner Bert Blyleven, 14-10, pitched his 12th complete game. Chris Bosio, 03, took the loss, White Sox 6, Rangers 2 At Chicago, Ron Hassey hit a two- run double and Steve Carlton and two relievers combined on a seven-hitter to lead the White Sox to their first victory against Texas in 10 games this season. Carlton 'raised his AL record to 2-2 and his overall mark to 5-11. Jose Guzman, 9-12, was the loser. Yankees 4, Mariners 2 At Seattle, Rickey Henderson and Dan Pasqua hit first-inning home runs to help New York snap a four- game losing streak.

Dennis Rasmussen, 14-4, worked the first 613 innings to pick up the victory. Dave Righetti earned his 31st save. Mike Morgan, 9-14, was the loser. Angels 4, Tigers 2 At Anaheim, Don Sutton scattered four hits over 7 1-3 innings for his 307th career victory and Ruppert Jones hit a solo homer to spark the Angels. The 41-year-old Sutton, 12-9, struck out three and walked two.

Donnie Moore earned his 18th save. Rookie Eric King, 9-4, was the loser. of two more, but he still led the Nittany Lions in rushing, even though he dislocated his elbow in the last game of the season. As the 1986 season approaches, Dozier is hopeful he can put the injury bug behind him and rejected suggestions that he Is injury prone, "No, 1 don't think that," he said. "If I did.

I'd have to worry about every play that'I'm in. so 1 don't, of 1 don't think that way. "People think I am everyone gets injuries." Dozier is currently in fifth place on Penn State's career rushing list with 2,416 yards and he could pass Curt Warner, who ran for 3.398 yards, to take over the top spot if he stays healthy. Dozier's feelings about the record are ambivalent. "(I think about it) a little bit but it's no big deal," he said.

"I'd like to go out being the best but if I don't, I'd like to go our trying to be the best." Paterno said Dozier's injuries have shown the Nittany Lions can win with David Clark at tailback and with fullbacks Tim Manoa and Steve Smith getting their fair share of carries. In fact. Clark led the team by averaging 5.9 yards per carry in Dozier's absence last season. For that reason. Paterno said Dozier might find things a little easier this year because the Nlttany Lions don't need him to play as big a role.

"1 don't think it's quite as important this year as it was last year," Paterno said. "We didn't have a great offensive line or great wideouts (last year). He and a couple of strong fullbacks were needed if we were going to have an explosive attack. "I don't think it's quite as dramatic this year because everything else is a little Maybe as a result, he'll have a better year." Dozier sounded a bit wistful as he looked ahead to his senior season, his last games al Beaver Stadium and his final chance to play with his current teammates. Perhaps that's why he admitted his career so far might cause some people to feel a little disappointed.

Other people, though, not himself. "If 1 really thought about it deeply, I would be disappointed," he said. "Not that I got hurt, but that I couldn't help the team the way I wanted to, to be out there, be a leader, push each other, get pushed. That part of it, yes, but not to the point where I worry about it." Football Schedules 18 25 1 p.m. 8.
