26 Aur 7. 1987 MiRf.vi.poRT-WMi.R Tip Timet New Knight coach glad to get cflriDls under way 7 freshman showed up for physicals, but they won't report until school starts. "I just feel like I'm at home," Dunn said of being back at Wood-lawn. "It's a dream come true. It's just exciting to be back at Wood-lawn High.

I just hope we can add to the tradition." The Knights finished as co-champions with Southwood in District 1-AAAA last year, losing to the Cow-boys 10-6 in the final regular season game of the season. Dunn, 25, was an assistant coach at Southwood last year. Many of the same players that led Woodla wn to a 7-4 record are back, including the entire offensive backfield of quarterback Bubba Jordan and running backs Gydell Brooks and Terrance Strickland. "We've been doing so many other things." Those "other things" Dunn is referring to involve housekeeping chores in the locker room that have kept Dunn and his staff busy all summer. The Woodla wn coaches have been painting the walls and lockers, washing the floor, straightening the weight room, cleaning the equipment room and putting dowt carpet The above scenario is typical ol the kind of work most area higt school football coaches have to dc before the first player reports fot practice.

Dunn kept his team out for about an hour Thursday and said the heat wasn't a problem. He also said about 55 sophomores, juniors and seniors came out for practice. About 50 By RUSSELL HEDGES Times Cormpondent Dennis Dunn hasn't had much time to reflect oo what it means to return to his alma mater, Woodla wn High School, as the school's bead football coach. He's been too busy. Woodla wn, like most area high schools, began heat acclimation workouts Thursday.

Louisiana High School Athletic Association Schools are required to go through five days of heat conditioning workouts during which no football drills are permitted. After that, teams must practice for three days in shorts and helmets before putting on full pads. "It feels good to get outside and start working again," said Dunn, 25.

F. Austin, and linebacker Dave Brown of Miami (Ohio). Mitchell fails physical Tackle Leonard Mitchell, traded to the Oilers for an undisclosed 1988 draft choice, failed his physical in Houston Thursday, forcing the Philadelphia Eagles to return him to their roster. The problem Involved a knee, according to team spokesman Ed Wisneski. Other medical problems plagued two more Eagles Thursday, the first day of practice at training camp.

Starting left tackle Ken Reeves, a former Texas player from Pittsburg, Texas, underwent an appendectomy Wednesday night at Paoli Memorial Hospital The Associated Press Fullback Hokie Gajan, trying for a comeback with the New Orleans Saints after missing last season with a wrecked right knee, hurt his left knee in non-contact drills Thursday and had to leave the afternoon practice to see team doctors. team bused to the Superdome ttSNew Orleans for Thursday's workouts due to wet fields at Southeastern Louisiana University. Gajan was walking with a barely perceptible limp when he returned to training camp for the evening meal. He consulted briefly with team trainer Dean Kleinschmidt, then refused to talk to reporters. "It's all undetermined," he said, apologizing for his uncharacteristic brevity but refusing even to describe how the injury occured.

Starting wide receiver Eric Martin also missed Thursday's evening practice to have fluid drained from his right knee, the one on which he had arthroscopic surgery last spring. Ranis' trvin unhappy Cornerback LeRoy Irvin wants to be traded, especially since learning wtere his salary ranks compared HFL nOUHDUP with other NFL defensive backs. A recent salary poll of the 45 top-paid cornerbacks and safeties did not include Irvin, who started for the National Conference in last winter's Pro Bowl. "I must not be that good because 45 guys make more than me," he told the Los Angeles Times in an interview published Thursday. "They expect you to be All-Pro and then pay you like a backup," Irvin added.

Irvin hasn't practiced with the Rams since ending a six-day holdout. That holdout was to show dissatisfaction over a deal he signed in March that extended his contract through this season. Irvin, who is due to make 1250,000 in 1987, claims to have an injured hamstring. Irvin is not alone among the upset Rams. Eric Dickerson wants a trade because at $683,000, he's not in the top 10 of running back wage Cowboys Cut eight The Dallas Cowboys placed eight players on waivers, including four Today's Games Chicogo (Sutcliffe 15-4) ot New York (Darling 7-7), 6:35 p.m.
