For the first time in history, Shotwell Stadium is expected to have all 15,042 seats occupied and a few folks might buy standing room only privileges. ACC's double-barrell threat is freshman tailback Wilbert Montgomery and quarterback Qint Longley. Their statistics border on the fantastic. Longley, whd catches rattlers for a hobby, completed 10 of 19 passes against Sam Houston for 157 yards and two TDs.

He set a conference record with 2,446 yards for a season. Brins Your Friends and Enjoy the rootball Party Associated Press The three most talked about subjects in the Lone Star Conference are a rookie who is trying to cram a career into one season, a quarterback who wrestles rattlesnakes, and Nov. 17. Nov. 17 is Saturday the Lone Star Conference football showdown in Shotwell Stadium in Abilene.

Abilene Christian (8-1) has a double-barrell shotgun aimed at Howard Payne (9-1) and the 39th LSC crown. The winner of the shootout will likely get an invitation to the NAIA's Division One playoffs. ACC is ranked No. 3 in the NAIA polls and Howard Payne is No. 4.

TCU has bushwhacked some Texas gravy trains in the past. In lact, Royal mentioned one year that TCU is sort of like a cockroach "What it doesn't eat it falls into and Monday INijiht at Nebraska is expected to accept the Cotton Bow! bid as the guest team next Saturday. Royal said of the Com-huskers: "I haven't put that much thought on bowls. I guess you might say we've peeking around the comer, but we're not looking anyone dead in the eye." Rice provided the shocker of shockers Saturday by stunning Arkansas 17-7 and the young Texas Aggies gave an awesome example of what can happen when they get it together by mangling Southern Methodist 45-10.

Texas Tech, with only one Frogs immediately after the Longhoms mauled Baylor 42-6 Saturday, Royal smiled and said "TCU has always been tough on Texas and I'm not calling 'em any names you can bet on that." A victory over the Homed Frogs in Austin Saturday would clinch the sixth consecutive Cotton Bowl trip for the Longhoms and at least a tie for the SWC title. Royal said about remaining foes TCU and Texas "Nothing's a tap-in in a game like this where emotion means so much. If you're not ready to ploy, you can get surprised." Royal, who had country and western singer Charlie Rich as his press-conference guest after the game, said Leaks was like Rich in that "He's never satisfied with a performance even when it's great. Even entertainers like Charlie will tell you they've never cut a perfect album." It was the third consecutive year that Rice had upset Arkansas and probably cost the Razorbacks a bowl bid. The Aggies, should they defeat Rice Saturday, could possibly be bowl timber themselves.

Asked about the Homed SWC loss, kept its Cotton Bowl hopes alive with a hard-earned 24-10 victory over Texas Christian.

Liberty Bluebonnett and Peach Bowl scouts are panting heavily over the Red Raiders, who have lost only to Texas. Royal put in another plug for his dynamic duo of center Bill Wyman and fullback Roosevelt Leaks, who ran for three touchdowns against the Bears. "Wyman is the most consistent blocker we've had as a lineman since I've been at Texas," Royal said. Of Leaks, Royal said "I believe he has more breakaway talent when he gets into the secondary than he has had before. Last year he just ran until you heard glass.

He's not a sprinter, but he's not slow." Vikings' Guard Ward Injured BLOOMINGTON, Minn.

Valentin A. Granatkin, a spokesman for the Soviet Soccer Federation, said Sunday the organization had received -a telegram from FIFA giving the Soviet Union 48 hours to make a decision.

"We are not going to make any other statement other than the one already, made," Granatkin said, referring to the Soviet Union's previously announced refusal to play in Santiago. Federation said it would not "participate in the elimination match on Chilean territory" because of the recent coup which overthrew the Marxist government of Chilean President Salvador Allende.
