The six straight strikeouts for a relief pitcher lied the league record for i ve strikeouts and ironically canie against Tom Seaver, the losing pitcher, who holds the overall league record with 10 straight. split Reds and Mels combined with Pit- tsburgh's 11-0 thrashing of Los Angeles enabled Cincinnnati and the Pirates to gain a half game in their respective divisions.

11th Straight Victory Baltimore got impressive performances against Denver from veteran quarterbacks Johnny Unitas and Earl Morrall- who both tossed touchdown passes, in registering the lllh straight Colt pre-season victory. Roman Gabriel showed mid- season form for the Los Angeles Rams by. throwing Ihree touchdown passes in a come-froin-behind victory over Oakland.

Warfield teamed with quarter- back Bob Griese on a 50-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter to power the Dolphins over San Francisco for their third straight victory. Anderson Shows Form Donny Anderson, somewhat of a disappointment since signing a $200,000 bonus con- tract a few years back, showed his $200,000 form by scoring three times and gaining 63 yards in 11 carries as the Packers topped the Cowboys in a high scoring thriller. The world champion Kansas City called Jan Stenerud to put away the Browns. Stenerud kicked a pair of 40-yard field goals in the final minutes.

Browns to use same old offense, hope to add backbone to defense silver Creek blanks Osceola THREE 300s HOUSTON, Tex. (UPI) Dick Weber of St, Louis rolled three .300 games in one tourna- ment, the veteran bowler liirnirig the trick in Ihe 1S1G5 jlouslon PBA Open. By STEVE MORROW CLEVELAND (UP!) Cleveland Browns plan lo bring their same old offense into their new conference this season but they hope to add a new backbone to their defense. Head coach Blanton Collier will try an old, proven formula as the Browns, with Ihe Pittsburgh Steelers and Ihe Baltimore Colts, move into Ihe American Conference with Ihe 10 former American Football League clubs.

The Browns ball control offense, third highest point producer in the NFL last year, will again rely on the rushing of LeRoy Kelly and the precision passing of Bill Nelsen. Aiming At Passers But Collier is anxious lo establish a new image for the Browns' defense, which gave up the seventh highest number of points in the old NFL. "We want to improve our ability to stop the rush, and we want'to put more presssure on the passer," says Collier. These changes, he feels, will enable Cleveland to have a more aggressive defense. The competition is fierce for positions on Ihe defensive line.

Huge end Joe Jones and aggressive lacklc Rill Yancar are rookie challengers lo the four veterans, ends Jack Gregory and lion Snidow and lackles Marv Upshaw and Walter Johnson. Another con- lender at end is Bob Malhieson, switched from linebacker. To bolster his linebacking corps, Collier has switched defensive signal caller Jim Houston to the middle. He'll be flanked by speedy Dale Lindsay and John Garlingfon. Corner A Problem The cornerback spot, where Erich Barnes is storting to show his age and Ben Davis is coming off knee surgery, may present problems.

But three young.men are eager to solve them--Fred Summers. Alvin Mitchell and Walt Sutnnir, who is improved by a year of experience filling in for Davis. Safelymen Mike Howcll and Ernie Kellermen are proven pros. Collier, who discounts the Browns' exhibilion game loss to the Los Angeles Rams as a matter of lack of practice, was pleased wilh the work of his rookies on defense in the 17-10 decision over San Francisco. Nelson has looked sharper llirs year than he lias ever since joining Ihe Browns.

Kelly is anxious to rejoin Ihe club--a pulled muscle slowed him part of last year. The great fullbacks Bo Scott and Reeece Morrison, benefit from the Browns" offensive line, led by 'ageless guard Gene Hickerson. At 34, Hickerson says he's as fast as ever in the first ten years. Off-season medical treatment and a custom made rubber pad have eased Ihe pain in the right arm of veteran tackle Dick Scharfrath. The only new line starter will- be Joe Taffoni, groomed for three years to replace retired Monle Clark.

Second draft choice Bob McKay lends depth and is raled a fulure star. The Browns drafled Mike Phipps from Purdue as future quarterback insurance against Nelson's gimpy knees. They had to send brilliant receiver Paul Warfield lo Miami for Ihe rights. Homer Jones, picked up in trade with the New York Giants, is getting strong competition from Fair Hooker, a second year man, for Warfield's old slot. The olhm- receivers are veteran all-pro Gary Collins, and aid-pound end Mill Morin.
