PETERSBURG, FLORIDA, MONDAY, JANUARY 16, 1978 20 CENTS A COPY Cool 9 Cowboys bust Broncos 27-10 in Super Bowl Complete coverage. Section The first half was a symphony of imprecision, especially by Denver as the Broncos lost three fumbles and Morton threw his four interceptions. Denver mistakes continually gave the Cowboys opportunities to snort to an uncatchable lead, but Dallas didn't squeeze the most from the chances. Kfren Herrera had five field goal shots in the first half but made only two, from 35 and 43 yards, as Dallas took a 13-0 halftime lead. BUTCH JOHNSON made a startling catch of a 45-yard Staubach pass in the third DALLAS WAS presented an armload of first-half chances when Morton threw his four interceptions and the Broncos fumbled three times, but the Cowboys could squeeze out only a 13-0 halftime lead.

Dallas was ahead 20-3. All season long, Bronco Head Coach Red Miller had trumpeted the theme "the fourth quarter is ours," and when the game's final 15-minute period began Miller yelled to his players and held up four fingers.

Rick Upchurch, the dancing bullet who returns kicks for Denver, responded by juking and sprinting 67 yards on a record Super Bowl kickoff return. With a sweet shot at the Dallas 26, Bronco quarterback Morton threw a poor pass into the huge hands of 6-foot-9 Cowboy defensive end Ed "Too Tall" Jones. But Jones dropped it. Miller, however, seemed disturbed at Morton's failures and replaced the 34-year-old former Cowboy with New Orleans-reared Norris Weese. The former Ole Miss quarterback, a refugee of the defunct World Football League, marched Denver the 26 yards to a touchdown.

Rob Lytle's one-yard scoring run allowed the Broncos to cut Dallas' lead to a 20-10. But the Broncos never got closer. By HUBERT MIZELL 81. Pctxtburg Timn Sport Editor NEW ORLEANS Destiny wore Cowboy Blue Sunday night as favored Dallas turned an avalanche of Denver mistakes into a 27-10 runaway in the first indoor Super Bowl name.

was beaten severely in her apartment about six blocks from the Chi Omega sorority house, where the first attacks occurred. Authorities said they had found no link between the four sorority victims and Miss Thomas, who was not a member of Chi Omega. "IT COULD have been a case of his (the attacker's) not getting satisfaction sexually and searching for someone else to attack," Katsaris said. Miss Thomas was in critical condition Sunday night. The two women injured in the sorority house were in satisfactory condition at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital.

They are Karen Chandler, 21, of Tallahassee, who was a resident of St. Petersburg until 1972, and Kathy Kliner, 21, of Miami.

"THEY WERE probably struck and didn't know what happened," the sheriff said. "I think the strangulation came alter the beating because there was a lack of struggle." The intruder, passing rooms where other young women were sleeping, then went to the room of Miss Chandler and Miss Kliner and began heeling both of them.

The dispute focused (jn the wording of how the participants at the meeting of the political committee would deal with the thorny issue of the Israeli-occupied Arab lands of the West Bank of the Jordan and the Oaza Strip and on the problem of the Palestinian Arabs who live there.

Israeli policy opptmen the creation of a separate Palestinian state.

In addition, Egypt was said to have been eager to have a specilic item on the agenda regarding it demand that Israel withdraw entirely from the territories. SOURCES HERE said that the impasse apeared resolved at the Israeli cabinet meeting by the adoption of a fuzzily worded agenda item that was acceptable to the Egyptians. The compromise agenda item was reportedly offered by the United States. Sources said Washington's draft proposal rephrased the deadlocked point in language that did not exclude the issue of eventual Palestinian self-determination, thereby leaving Egypt an opportunity to introduce it.

FARRELL Nw York TimM JERUSALEM The resumption of Middle East peace talks Itetween Israel and Egypt nearly foundered Sunday over a last-minute dispute on the wording of an agenda. However, after intense consultations, a U.S.-oliered compromise was approved by both sides, and the talks, originally set to open here today, were rescheduled for Tuesday. The agenda dispute had caused Secretary of State Cyrus K. Vance Saturday night to put off his trip to Israel only an hour and half before his scheduled departure. Early Sunday there had been doubt that Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohammed Ibrahim Kamel and his aides would arrive in Jerusalem for the next round of talks with Israel's Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan.

Kamel and his retinue arrived hours late at the airport, Vance announced in Washington that he will arrive in Jerusalem today, and the talks were pushed back to Tuesday.
