Ailing Starr will play for Packers 20 Times News, Twin Falls, Idaho Sunday, July 2, 1972 Harvard has repeat win at Henley Ft a. vf 'V s---- I il'ilirtfifi -rr. v. 1 long time to make because, from a physical and rehabilitation standpoint, a decision any sooner was impossible." Starr, 38, a 16-year veteran in the National Football League, underwent a pair of operations on his upper arm last summer at the Mayo clinic. He had hoped to be ready to play in 1971.

He appeared late in the season, but it was obvious his strength had not returned and he was contemplating retirement. He underwent a strenuous rebuilding program during the winter and spring. "Idealistically, a complete recovery was the desired result," Starr told a news conference. "That plateau has not been reached and except for a couple of other factors. I was prepared to retire." Starr said the limitations he referred to were in areas he could throw to, but coach Dan Devine said his only limitations would be "the normal limitations of any quarterback with his length of service in the NFL.

"There's more to being a quarterback than just being able to throw the ball," Devine said. "Bart's leadership is very valuable." Devine said there were many who felt that a return of Starr for next season would set back the development of young quarterbacks such as Scott Hunter, a regular as a rookie much of last season, and Jerry Tagge, a first round draft choice from Nebraska this year. "Conceivably it could," De-vine said, "but I don't feel it will. I feel it will enhance their development. "Basically Bart thinks like I do and he will help their development as it goes along." Starr said he has not yet signed a contract, but expects to shortly.

He also said he hoped the comeback would be fore more than one year. "I'm looking at it as a beginning," he said. CORE REINFORCED STEEL is ready for a concrete finish across Salmon Falls Creek, some 12 miles above Salmon Falls Reservoir and just into Nevada. The structure is a fish barrier, costing $117,000, which the Bureau of Land Management is raising in the hope it will prevent upstream trash fish infestation of tributaries. The entire drainage above the barrier will be chemically treated in a joint operation of the Nevada and Idaho fish and game departments sometime this fall.

High water has prevented completion of the GREEN BAY, Wis. (UPD-Green Bay Packers' quarterback Bart Starr, admitting he has not completely recovered from an arm injury that has plagued him the past three years, said Saturday he would play again next fall. "The club has asked me to stay, fully aware of my limitations, so that I might contribute to the success oi the 1972 Packers squad," Starr said. "This statement has taken a Yanks trip Indians on Alou's hit NEW YORK (UPI)-Feupe Alou's two run double capped a three-run fifth inning rally Saturday afternoon as the New York Yankees defeated the Cleveland Indians 5-1 behind Mike Kekich who pitched his first complete game of the season. Kekich turned in a five-hiter and the only Cleveland run came on Graig Nettles fourth home run of the season leading off the second inning.

The Yankees tied the score against starter and loser Mike Kilkenny in the bottom of the second on a walk to Roy White, the first of three hits by Alou, an infield out and Gene Michael's sacrifice fly.

Northeeastern University of Boston made Russian Navy crew WMF Moscow the Soviets Olympic representative at Munich pull out all the stops in the Grand Challenge Cup before being edged out. The margin after the most memorable finish over the last decade in the regatta's glamor event for eights, was a mere two-thirds of a length. In the Double Sculls, New York Athletic Club's Jim Dietz and Larry Klecatsky pushed British Olympic hopefuls Pat Delafield and Tim Crooks to a record time for the 700 yards barrier of two minutes three seconds. The Americans, who only row together in competition, could not maintain their effort, however, and were beaten by 1-2-3 lengths. In the premier singles event, the Diamond Sculls, Irishman Sean Drea of Philadelphia's Temple University had trouble with his boat and lost by 3-3-4 lengths to Russian Navy man Alex Timoschinin.

Harvard's inexperienced crew crushed England's Kingston R.C. by an overwhelming margin in the final after disposing of London R.C. earlier in the day. Coinciden tally, the American Freshmen clocked exactly the same time in both races over the one mile 550 yards course-six minutes 55 seconds. Kent held off a determined challenge from Canadian crew Brentwood College School to win the Princess Elizabeth trophy in a thrilling race in 7:2.

It looked to be all over when the Americans surged ahead, but they were caught at the half-way stage and only edged in front yards from the finish. Harvard coach Ted Washburn was ecstatic with joy and excitement, but the crew cooled him by ceremoniously dumping him into the river to celebrate victory. Washburn, former Harvard coxwain from Cambridge, said "this is a really fine freshman crew. No question about it. The secret is that they really enjoy rowing.

It's not work for them, they really love getting out on the water."

Kaline's home run, which dealt Orioles' starter Dave McNally his seventh loss of the season in 15 decisions, tied him for 17th place on the all-time homer list with Ralph Kiner. Lolich, 13-5, is now the winningest pitcher in the majors as he limited the Orioles to seven hits while striking out four and walking one.

Jim Northrup wasn's quite so Detroit held a 2-0 lead with one out in the ninth inning Saturday when Brooks Robinson walked and Tom Shopay ran for him. That brought Johnson to bat for Baltimore. "I was trying to strike out Johnson," Lolich said.

"I knew it was out when he hit it. I guess the wind pulled it back in." Northrup, a defensive replacement for Willie Horton in the ninth inning, raced back to the fence and leaped as high as he could to catch the ball. He then fired to relay man Ed Brinkman, who made a perfect throw to double Shopay off first and end the game. The win by the Tigers enabled Lolich to become the first 13-game winner in the majors and helped first place Detroit increase its lead over Baltimore to two full games. "I caught it and my wrist hit the top of the fence," Northrup said.

"It would have been a home run. It wus a hell of a way to end the game on national television." The TV executives must have thought so too, because they only showed three times on the replay. Gravbeard holds lead LOS ANGELES (UPI)-Sail-ing in a tropical downpour, the 73-foot ketch Graybeard, from Vancouver, B.C., moved to within 679 nautical miles of the finish of the Transpacific Tahiti yacht race Saturday.

But a longtime friend and fellow international grand master, the Rev. William J. Lombardy, who talked to Fisher Friday predicted he would arrive in Reykjavik in time for the match, settle his differences with the promoters over money, play Russian World Champion Boris Spassky and win the title.

"He gives indication of going and playing," Lombardy said. "A man who is that confident about his own skill is not going to pass up the opportunity to play over some minor details which can be ironed out." In Reykjavik, German Grand Master Lothar Schmidt, arbiter for the match, said the first game could be postponed if the official match physician found medical reasons for Fischer to ask for a delay. But, officials said, Fischer had to show up by game time or be disqualified. The Icelandic flight would leave Fischer 10 hours to rest before the start of the match at 5 p.m. Sunday Iceland time (1 p.m.

EDT). The drawing of lots to decide who is playing the white pieces in the first game was postponed until Sunday morning in the hope that the controversial American chess genius will be in town by then.

Marshall, would say only, "I Sox topple Brewers on 3 homeruns BOSTON UPI Ben Oglivie crashed two home runs while pitcher Marty Pattin hit his first major league homer Saturday as the Boston Red Sox snapped a six-game Milwaukee winning string with a 54 win over the Brewers. Pattin snapped a 2-2 tie with a drive into the leftfield screen after Carlton Fisk had singled with two outs in the second inning.

USAC may reschedule Pocono 500 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.

(UPI) -The United States Auto Club Saturday opened the possibility of rescheduling the Pocono "500" big-car race in Pennsylvania, "in the best interests of all concerned." Officials of the year-old Pocono racing plant cancelled Sunday's scheduled race, the second stop in USAC's "triple crown" of 50C-mile events for Indianapolis-type cars, because of the flooding left by hurricane Agnes. The cancellation did not meet approval of the sanctioning racing body, which announced that Pocono promoters had forfeited about $275,000 in prize money. Pocono officials, meanwhile, held out for a rain date, and USAC called its seven-member executive committee into special session here to ponder its next move.

Kingman's homer came with two runners on base in the first inning and gave the Giants a lead they never gave up. It was his 17th of the season and he now has 50 runs batted in. McCovey's homer came in the fifth inning and Rader also hit his homer following a walk to Kingman in the same inning.
