Corey Elmore, for the white-helmeted Crusher Gridiron Knights, and defenders Chris Aggi, Audie Verducci, Steve Jackson or Scott Spears, and another "hitter" zero in on their quarry, hopeful of causing another of several Rogue fumbles. Rogues won 12 0, on touchdown, field goal and safety, but Crusher defense was will have to be again this Saturday afternoon at 2, when Ukiah hosts Santa Clara University-oriented San Jose Buclteyes in Anton Stadium. Crushers deserve fan following off opening two games, a win arid a tough loss. NEW YORK (UPI) Pittsburgh, owners of the Idngest winning streak among major college football teams, became the sixth school to earn the No.

1 ranking today in balloting by UPI's Board of Coaches. The Panthers, who extended their unbeaten string to 14 games with a 29-24 triumph over Boston College, replaced state rival Penn State as the top rated team. Penn State, 6-1, held to No. 1 ranking the last two weeks before being upset 17-14 by Miami Saturday. Pittsburgh, 7-0 and one of three unbeaten teams in the Top 20, received 35 first-ptace votes for 622 points from the 42 coaches who comprise UPI's Board.

No. 2 Southern California received four first-place votes and 555 points. Clemson, 8-0 after a 82-24 victory over Wake Forest, received two first- place votes and moved into the No. 3 spot, followed by No. 4 Georgia (one first-place vote) and No.

5 Texas. Rounding out the Top 10 are No. 6 Penn State, No. 7 Alabama, No. 8 Nebraska, No.

9 North Carolina and No. 10 Michigan. The second 10 consists of No. 11 Miami, up eight spots from last Pac -10 race is intense Only Gmvcy at ceremony SEATTLE (UPI) Coach Don James of the University of Washington Huskies says the current race for the Pacific 10 Conference football crown is one of the most interesting and wide open in years. "The thing that appeals to me the most is that no one has to rely on anyone else," James said Monday.

"The teams involved could do it by themselves." For example, all Washington has to do to guarantee another trip to the Rose Bowl Is to keep on ning. By virture of Saturday's 4231 victory over Stanford and Washington State's loss to USC, the Huskies are tied for the Pac 10 lead with Arizona State, each with 4-1 records. But ASU is ineligible for the Rose Bowl because of NCAA sanctions. That leaves the USC Trojans with their 3-1 conference record, and the Washington State Cougars and UCLA Bruins iti the chase. The Cougs and UCLA each have 31-1 records, the one tie coming in the game in which they faced each other.

"Usually you have to play steadily on offense and defense if you are going to do anything well. As I said, the plan was to play Mike Scioscia against right-handers and me against left-handers.

The Yankees helped me by having all those left- handed pitchers." Interestingly enough, Yeager defended Yankee Manager Bob Lemon 's controversial decision to remove Tommy John in the fourth inning of the sixth game with the score tied 1-1, Pinch hitter Bobby Murcer, batting for John, flied deep to left and reliever George Frazier quickly surrendered the winning runs in the fifth. "Lemon was right in taking Tommy John out, even though I never like to see a left-hander come out," Yeager said. "Murcer hit the ball hard and if it goes out, the whole Series (Changes. John was up high and he wasn 't sharp and I think that's why he took him out. I don't see anything wrong with it and we weren 't surprised by it."

"It's like winning a million dcillan in the lottery and Aot talkiqg about it. "1 think our players can hande it (behig No. 1).

It's a plus for them. We have to approach each game in a mature way and see what happens at the end of the year. We'll give it our best shot. We do have a good football team." Iowa, which fell from the ratings following its second straight loss, was replaced by Southern Mississippi, making its first appearance in the Top 20 this year. Reggie may take his act on the road for in '82 NEW YORK (UPI) Mr.

October may be taking his act on the road. New York Yankee outfielder Reggie Jaclcson, whose postseason heroics and clubhouse charades have made him one of the most controversial players in baseball, declared himself a free agent Monday. Jackson, who finished hds fifth year with the Yankees last week, had perhaps his worst season ever with a .237 average, 15 homers and 54 RBI. Jackson was part of two championship teams and three pennant winners during his New York stay. He will be in the Nov.

13 re-entry draft for the second time in his career. Jackson -previously played with Oakland and Baltimore. Any team that signs Jackson will not be required to compensate the Yankees because Jackson has already participated in the free agent draft. Irv Kaze, public relations director of the Yankees, said that while Jackson has declarea agency he is by no means an ex-Yankee. "Jackson going for free agency is no surprise," said Kaze.

"Ron Guidry has already done so. It would also not surprise me to see Reggie and George Steinbrenner get together before Nov. 13. Both have expressed a desire to do so." At the time Steinbrienner signed Jackson in November 1976, his $2.9 million contract made him one of the highest paid players ui baseball history. Now, Jackson's contract is mild compared with most of the game's standout players, including teammate Dave Winfieid, who signed a lO-year, $24 million pact this year.

"I want to talk to Reggie man to man and find out what he's thinking. I have certain ideas but I have to hear from said. "One sports writer did indicate he was burning his bridges as far as staying with the team but I want to hear that from Reggie himself. He has contributed mightily here." Pinehurst close The Ukiah Men's Golf Club conducted the "Pinehurst Scramble" on the Ukiah links Saturday and couldrt't have been closer three teams tied for low honors with net 61-stroke totals. Tied for first were the teams of Chuck Price and Bill Tatum; Dirk Wiidtterger and Ron Souder, and Carroll Ornbaun and the Daily Journal's own Jim Garner.

Garner and Ornbaun were reportedly at eight-under after completing the front-nine but could knock only one more stroke off of par on the back-nine to finish in the three-way tie. All alone in second place was the team of Kelvin Chapman and Paul Shimmln at 62. Tied for third were the teams of Larry Kinney and Lawson Selby; Dave Gartner and Scotty Turner, and Tom Goforth and George Parducci, all with 63. Next came the team of Newt Bassler and Dave Spencer, 64. A total of 25 teams participated in the "Pinehurst Scramble" with top teams receiving merchandise from the Ukiah Municipal Golf Course Pro Shop in recognition of their achievements.

Contestants in the scramble were extremely complimentary of the condition of the course despite the large amounts of rain which the area has received of late. 80 for an 8x10 Christmas Special your sitting entites you to one big beautify color portrait reg. 5.90 value Agelimit -12 years Select from a variety of poses and backgroLinds No appointment necessary Add 1 .00 at sitting for 2 or 3 children 'from original package last promotion before Christmas Nov. 3rd through the 7th Portrait units may be purchased individually a unil equals one oi oiu' 5nr with A walleti 1 UNIT 2 UNITS 3 UNITS 5.90 4.90 each 3.90 each JCPenney Pixy hours: Tues-Thurs 9:30 Sat..
