I By HAL 60DLEY Assistant Sports Editor How easy was Delaware's 35 to 0 football victory over Hofstra on Saturday? For new Blue Hen quarterback Tom DiMuzio, it was a breeze. "Easy, Real easy," said a glowing DiMuzio, who scored one touchdown and passed for two others. "You see this.

"I didn't think we'd go all the way the first time we had the ball," said the 6-foot-l, 200-pound DiMuzio. "Once we did, we had it, They couldn't stop us then." And the new-look Hens didn't. They tore through and around Hofstra's celebrated defense later in the same period, with stunned.

The Hens added three touchdowns in the second half, Wandy Williams, considered one of the best in the Middle Atlan- tic Conference, gained just 15 yards. THE first time Delaware had the ball DiMuzio, a gritty junior who played halfback during last year's dismal two-victory, seven-defeat season, moved the Hens 87 yards In 12 plays.

Gil Yule has been seeing red since he read the piece here in which Mike Iannarella, Philadelphia 76ers ticket manager, took a swipe at professional ice hockey. Iannarella, associated with the National Basketball Association ever since Philadelphia had an entry, called ice hockey a bore. It doesn't move him.

Yule, a 1957 Tower Hill School graduate, now a teacher and coach at The Forman School in Litchfield, didn't come out openly and suggest that Iannarella be held for contempt. "My purpose in writing," types Yule, "is two-fold: First, to disagree with Mr. Iannarella, who lampooned the Flyers and ice hockey in your column; and second, to offer my congratulations to Pat Williams, recently appointed 76ers' business manager. Pat and I are friends of long-standing, having been teammates at Tower Hill. I know Pat will do a top-notch job in his new capacity.

"Now to the defense of ice hockey, which I regard as the greatest spectator sport. "Point No. 1: Regarding Flyers' attendance figures, whether they did or did not outdraw the 76ers last season is not that relevant. What is pertinent is the fact hockey made a good first impression in a town that is known to be a hotbed of basketball, what with the Big et al. Hockey proved that it belongs and, I venture, will prosper in Philadelphia.

"Point No. 2: Iannarella states there is no 'exciting nature' to the game. Hockey has more non-stop action and total action minutes than any other team sport. "Point No. 3: 'Not enough Iannarella says.

I feel any more scoring would hurt hockey. A hockey score resembling that of lacrosse would be a travesty. As it is, a hockey game with three to seven goals is about right. "I might add that it has always seemed lucidrous to me that in pro basketball the losing team can score US points and still lose and lose by 30 points. "I realize these are just one man's opinions, but I wanted to make my thoughts known.

I admit to not being unbiased as I have been a loyal Detroit Red Wing rooter ever since moving East from Michigan in 1950." Tucker impresses Now it can be told. After the 1967 football season, the University of Tennessee was interested in getting 6-foot-3, 235-pound tackle Gerry McCormick, All-State first-team selection from Newark High. Films of several Yellowjackets' '67 games were forwarded to Doug Dickey, the Vols' head coach. While impressed with McCormick, the Vols' coaching staff nearly flipped over another Newark youngster. They couldn't believe their eyes that a high school youngster could show so much poise and polish as quarterback Bob Tucker.

Much to their astonishment and dismay, they learned Tucker was only a junior. "They were so excited over Tucker," recalled Bob Hoffman, Newark coach, "that I believe they were ready to offer him half of Fort Knox to enroll at their school." McCormick, a powerful youngster, eventually wound up at Miami, where he is now playing freshman football, while Tucker, all 6-2, 186-pounds of him, readying for his last year as a schoolboy at Newark.
