For Unitas the news was good, but for Starr, not so good. Unitas, who underwent surgery after rupturing his right Achilles tendon (Haying paddle ball April 7, threw hard passes for 15 minutes at the Baltimore Colts training camp in Westminster, fcd. It was the first time Unitas, 38, had set up and thrown to receivers since camp opened July 11.

Unitas is under doctor's orders not to do any until August. But while Unitas was able to throw without pain, Starr was not. The Green Bay Packer veteran, who came up with a sore arm late last season, felt pain in his throwing arm and will have to stop passing for the foreseeable future, according to Coach Dan Devine. Devine said he was not ready to push the panic button and start a trade for a quarterback. The Packers have veteran Zeke Bratkowski, attempting a Comeback at 39 after two years as an assistant coach; rookie Scott Hunter, a number six draft pick from Alabama; and second year man Frank Patrick, a' converted tight end.

(UPI Telephoto) SPORTS McDowell hurls 3-1 win after $1000 fine ANAHEIM (AP) Sam McDowell, fined $1,000 Monday by Cleveland Indians Manager Alvin Dark, took out his wrath on the California Angels as he scattered seven hits and gained support scoring from his teammates for a change to clip to a 3-1 victory. It was a scoreless game before Cleveland took a 3-0 lead in the top of the ninth and held the Angels to one run in the last half inning. McDowell's fine was levied for "rowdyism" on a bus Saturday night. Dark declined comment on the fine, adding: "If there's going to be a leak, it's going to have to come from somebody else." "I make it a policy not to discuss personnel matters," said Dark.

"But I'll tell you Sam McDowell is still the best lefthander in the game." McDowell reportedly used abrasive language on the bus in the presence of several women, 'including Dark's step-daughter. Dark said that beer had been served on the team flight from Kansas City to Los Angeles and that on further flights it would not be allowed. A Cleveland official said McDowell was guilty of "other indescreet acts" during the ride and that he swore at Dark loud enough for the manager to hear. But the $1,000 is not a team record. Former Indians Manager Birdie Tebbetts and Rocky Colavito are believed to have been fined close to $2,000 for separate violations while playing with the Tribe.

McDowell (9-9) led the ninth with a bunt single and took second Ted Uh- laender's single. McDowell was forced at third by Vada Pinson and Graig Nettles singled to load the bases. Chris Chambliss drew a walk, forcing Uhlaender in and Frank Baker was safe and Pinson scored on Sandy Alomar's error at second. Eddie Leon's sent in the final run. The Angels scored in the bottom of the ninth when Syd O'Brien, safe at first on a forceout, scored as Leon dropped a pop fly.

Two Michigan schools given MAC membership COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)- In its first expansion since 1953, the Mid- American Conference Monday welcomed Eastern and Central Michigan universities to the fold. The two Michigan schools join the current six MAC members Bowling Green, Kent State, Miami, Ohio" University, Toledo, and Western Mich- Announcement of the expansion made by MAC Commissioner Fred Jacoby and Miami University President Phillip Snriver, chairman of the MAC Council of Presidents. Stunned by the news of the MAC selections was University of Cincinnati Athletic Director George Smith. "I am really shocked," be said when he heard his school had not been selected.

Cuicinnati and the University of Louisville were among eight schools being considered for membership. "There are only two ways to go now," said Smith. "One, we wUl continue to seek another conference affi- liation or, two, we'll talk to other schools about formation of a new conference." Cincinnati has campaigned as an independent since last September when it withdrew from the Missouri Valley Conference. "We'd Ufce to relate with a conference," said Smith. He said costs of running an intercollegiate program at UC have pushed beyond a year with no relief in sight.

He explained the only alternative was conference affiliation. Central Michigan and Eastern Michigan are also currently independent schools, both having at one time belonged to the now-defunct Interstate Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. They will become eligible for MAC competition in all sports but football and basketball starting with the 1972-73 athletic year. Conference and school officials are already at work on scheduling. CMU and EMU can compete in MAC football and basektball when advanced schedules permit.

Central Michigan, at Mount Pleasant, has an enrollment of about 15,000 Eastern Michigan at Ypsilanti enrolls 20,000. Included in the expansion announcement was the possibility that Marshall University, expelled from the league in 1969 for recruiting violations, might be reinstated. Jacoby said Marshall's status would be reviewed in the near future if the university formally requests it. "Noting the substantial improvements which have been made in toe Marshall athletic program," Japoby said, "the Council of Presidents has granted that institution permission to apply for reinstatement at an early dale." Council meets next in Febru-.
