It was a sure indication that Tabb already had been tabbed as one of the stars of the TV special called "The Road to L.A." She had every right to be chosen for that role even though the Olympics have become a jinx for her during her star-studded running career.

Tabb was the woman's star of the 1982 track and field season, and series of performances earned her The Associated Press Female Athlete of the Year Award. In the balloting sports writers and broadcasters, announced Thursday, Tabb received 29 votes. Tennis player Martina Navratilova was second with 21 and golfer JoAnne Carner was third with 9. Last year, Tabb was undefeated in 14 races, indoors and outdoors, and shattered numerous records before an Achilles tendon injury prematurely ended her season in August. Indoors, she set three world bests, with clockings of 4 minutes, 20.5 seconds for the mile, 5:53.4 for 2,000 meters and 8:47.3 for 3,000 meters.

In the mile, she lowered the indoor best three times. Outdoors, she set three world records, with clockings of 4:18.08 in the mile, 15:08.26 for 5,000 Dickey Will Keep Eyes On Jones DALLAS (AP) Just call Ed Jones the Dallas Cowboys' "Mr. January."

And the producers said they had paid an undisclosed sum to the family of John Piazza, the imprisoned gambler who made the allegations. NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle is shown in the film to specific allegations other areas, although he is not questioned about Piazza's charges. Mike Kirk, senior producer on the show, said Rozelle told moderator Jessica Savitch off the air that he had never heard of Piazza.

Don Weiss, the league's executive director, said Thursday that mohe league would have further response until officials had an opportunity to see the film. The gambler, interviewed in prison, said he was involved in fixing four NFL games each season in 1968, 1969 and 1970. He said the players involved were paid a flat fee of $300,000 plus 10 percent of what the gamblers made on the fixed game. He said the biggest payoff was $800,000 and said he actually saw players present when money changed hands. "We had the coach and we had the quarterback, who was the offensive captain, and we had the defensive captain," he said.

He said the players were constantly aware of the point spread on the game, or as he said: "the perimeters of the score we wanted to hold." "Say the offense got close to the goal line and a touchdown would have put it above the spread," he said. "The quarterback would throw a pass away and they would only have a field goal." Piazza said the coach was paid so that he wouldn't remove the quarterback "if he started throwing passes into the ground or all over the The producers of the series said they gave Piazza a lie detector test and it showed he was telling the truth. They said Piazza had given them the names of the coach and players involved and what games were fixed. But they said they would not disclose them, either to the public or to the NFL. Kirk said research would continue up to Monday's air time.

"All of the variables that are associated with this have been checked out," Kirk said in a telephone interview from Boston. "I believe the corroborating evidence." he added: "I'm not prepared to say who these people are because you're really gin reputations. We don't want to transmit slander. We don't have enough information to name the names. We are carrying a story.

We believe it enough to carry it." Asked how much Piazza and other gamblers got for their interviews, Kirk said: "'I know it was not substantial. I don't think it was thousands.
