BYU meets the University of Michigan Friday in the Holiday Bowl in San Diego. (AP Laserphoto) NFL to control 'franchise free agency' By DAVE GOLDBERG AP Sports Writer NEW YORK The National Football League, threatened by the near-move of the Philadelphia Eagles following the shifts of two teams in the last three years, has taken the first step to controlling what Commissioner Pete Rozelle calls "franchise free agency." Following an emergency meeting of club owners Tuesday to find ways to help out financially troubled Eagles owner Leonard Tose, Rozelle announced that he was invoking Rule 8.5 of the NFL by-laws authorizing the commissioner "to establish procedures and policies" to regulate the movement of franchises. Rozelle declined to be specific about the procedures, which he said had been drafted onlv in rough form by the league's legal staff.

But he indicated they would involve written notice to league by any team that wants to move unlike the case of the Baltimore Colts, who moved in the middle of the night to Indianapolis last March, and the proposed Eagles' move, which the NFL heard about only through news accounts. "We developed some procedures regulating the proposed transfer of teams," Rozelle said. "We will reduce it to writing and mail it out to each of the teams before we announce the details." The meeting on Tose's problems only accented what has become a sticky problem for the NFL beginning with the move of the Raiders from Oakland to Los Angeles three years ago. Court decisions in that case held that the league could not McEnroe finds lost pride, beats Wilander in 3 sets By STEPHAN NASSTROM AP Sports Writer GOTEBORG, Sweden John McEnroe picked up some lost pride for the United States Tuesday as Sweden wrapped up the 1984 Davis Cup title by crushing the Americans 4-1. Sweden had clinched the prestigious international tennis event on Monday when it took an insurmountable 3-0 lead in the best- of-five-matches competition.

The defeat was the worst for the United States since 1973, when Australia won 5-0 at Cleveland, Ohio. It was also the first time McEnroe was on the losing side in a final. Four times in the six past years, McEnroe lead the U.S. to victory, the last time in 1982 on a similar but faster indoor clay court surface. McEnroe, who was upset by Henrik Sundstrom in singles on Sunday and lost for the first time in Davis Cup" doubles on Monday, gained a measure of revenge Tuesday when he defeated Mats Wilander 6-3, 5-7, 6-3.

Sundstrom then spoiled Jimmy Arias' Davis Cup debut with a 3-6, 8-6, 6-3 victory. Arias replaced Jimmy Connors, who left Sweden earlier in the day to return home, where his wife is expecting their second child. The 32-year-old Connors only played one singles match and lost it in the first Davis Cup final of his long career. Tuesday's two "reverse singles" were shortened to best-of-three sets as Sweden had already clinched the victory. McEnroe and Connors did not win a set Sunday in the first two singles matches, and only one set in the doubles.

McEnroe's victory over Wilander snapped the Swede's 14-match winning streak in Davis Cup play. And it was the first time McEnroe managed to prevail on clay, the favorite surface in Wilander's early career. "But this match wasn't that important for me," said Wilander, who defended his Australian Open title on the grass courts in Melbourne before coming here. "It doesn't matter if we win 5-0 or 3-2. And losing the streak doesn't matter either." It was just like an exhibition, and it showed at times, both players making many unforced errors.

"It's tough for both of us to play a match like this," said McEnroe. "But it does get into the record book. Maybe they shouldn't count it because it has no bearing." McEnroe, who now has a 4-3 career edge over Wilander, broke the Swede's serve twice in the first set. keep its franchises from moving although some legal experts said it left the door open for the league to come up with guidelines to keep some control. Tose has debts reported at $42 million, including a loan for $12 million with the Crocker Bank in California that comes due in March.

Some of that money was reported to be gambling losses at casinos in Atlantic City. He had reportedly sold 25 percent of his franchise for $40 million to developer James Monaghan with the proviso that Monaghan could move it to Arizona. But after meetings last week with city officials in Philadelphia, Tose announced the team would stay in the city where it was founded 51 years ago. Rozelle said most of the 28 team representatives 21 owners were actually present heard the details of Tose's troubles for the first time Tuesday and were not ready to act immediately. Instead, he said, they agreed to have Rozelle appoint a committee to study a proposed refinancing of the team and report back in 45 days.

Presumably, Rozelle said, that would include helping Tose find a way out of his difficulties. "There was considerable sentiment toward helping Leonard resolve the problem," Rozelle said. Bosco leads BYU to Holiday By HERSCHEL NISSENS0N AP Sports Writer SAN DIEGO Friday night's Holiday Bowl between No. 1 Brigham Young and unranked Michigan looms as no contest at quarterback, anyway. In his first year as Steve Young's successor, BYU junior Robbie Bosco led the nation in total offense with 327.7 yards a game, finished a close second in passing efficiency to Doug Plutie and set an NCAA major-college record by throwing for at least 200 yards in each of the unbeaten Cougars' 12 regular- season games.

They led the nation in total offense and passing. "There was no question in our minds that Robbie would be an excellent quarterback," said Coach La Veil Edwards. "The only thing we had to see was how well he would handle pressure and adversity in games." Bosco completed 238 of 458 passes 61.8 percent for yards and 33 touchdowns, with only 11 interceptions. On the firing line for Michigan will be sophomore Chris Zurbrugg, who only became a starter in the Wolverines' eighth game and wound up No. 8 in the Big Ten in passing efficiency.

Jim Harbaugh went down with an arm injury in the fifth game and Russell Rein got two starts before the call went to Zurbrugg, who did not play in 1983 but ran the scout team's offense during Michigan's preparation for Auburn's Wishbone in the Sugar Bowl. "Steve Smith, last year's starter, graduated, and Dave Hall, his backup, had a knee problem that ended his football career," said Coach Bo Schembechler. "Harbaugh was No. 3 last year and the heir-apparent. When he got hurt, we went with Rein because Zurbrugg had two cracked vertebrae in his back last spring and missed weeks.

"Rein broke his left thumb (in the ninth game), but he'll play if something happens to Zurbrugg. We went to Zurbrugg in the Illinois game (Michigan won it 26-18). He's a competitive kid, a smart kid; he just hasn't had a lot of work. He's played some decent football, but what he is is a freshman. It hasn't been easy for him or us, but I think we can win the game with him." Zurbrugg completed 56 of 98 passes 57.1 percent for 609 yards and five touchdowns, with six interceptions.

Bosco turned out to be another in the long line of outstanding BYU quarterbacks Virgil Carter, Gary Sheide, Gifford Nielsen, Marc Wilson, Jim McMahon, Young. It didn't take long for him to earn his stripes. "He kind of burst upon the scene like few people have in recent years," Edwards said. "We couldn't have scripted the Pitt game (a 20-14 opening-game victory) any better. He had an interception run back 78 yards for a score in the third period and threw another interception in the period that helped them to a 14-3 lead.

"But on our next possession, Robbie took us downfield and we scored and near the end (i :30 left), he threw a long touchdown pass (50 yards to Adam Haysbert) for the win. I knew then he could handle adversity."
