AUG. 29, 1987 SECTION PAGE 3 mm domed stadiem i i i TTTTT Ti may moye Wit I WASHINGTON (UPI) -Washington Redskins owner Jack Kent Cooke threatened Friday to move the team to suburban Washington if 6fficials not build a new. 75.000-seat iomed stadium in the city, Cooke' said he will talk to neighboring counties in Mary- and and Virginia if officials from the District of Columbia fail to Work on his proposal. year career.

"I didn't want to leave the community so I'm glad it has out." Agent Randy Hendricks said he reached the agreement with Browns Vice President Ernie Accorsi by telephone in their first conversation since early August Other members of Hendricks' staff, however, had talked to Accorsi last week. I At Anderson Ind.t wide receiver Bill Brooks, who caught passes for more than 1,000 yards last year as a rookie, will be sidelined for up to 10 days' following surgery for a dislocated finger, the Indianapolis Colt announced. Brooks injured the small finger on his left hand during' practice Wednesday. Coach Ron Meyer said the injury is considered relatively Brooks had 65 receptions for 1966 the longest stretch in NFL history. Cooke said he will keep the team in the Washington area.

He did not discus how he would like the stadium financed. At Cleveland, the Cleveland Browns Friday signed their final holdout, Pro Bowl tackle Cody Risien, to a series of one-year contracts. r. Cleveland also released eight-year veteran linebacker Curtis Weathers. It was learned that Risien would be paid an estimated $1,050 million for two years.

Risien earlier rejected a two-yeaf" deal for a reported $1 million, and asked for about $1.1 million, "It wasn't a 28-day vacation at least mentally," Risien said of the only, holdout in his eight- 1,131 yards with" eight touchdowns last year. 1 At Chicago, the Chicago Bears, who have solved for the time being their great quarterback mystery, can concentrate on problems with the special teams i when they play Monday night against the St. Louis Cardinals. Quarterback Jim McMahon, trying to return 'from shoulder surgery, will not play against St Louis. "He hasn't thrown in any drills at all," Bears Coach Mike Ditka said.

"It would be a disservice to' him to put him in the game." So Mike Tomczak is the starter for the exhibition game and probably for the season opener Sept. 1 4 against the Giants. I "Unless he took a' complete flip-flop in the next two weeks, I couldn't see any way he wouldn't start," Ditka said of Tomczak. Gary Fencik, who lost his starting free safety spot to Todd Bell, will play on Special teams, a problem area for the Bears last season and again this year. Wide receiver Lew Barnes broke his ankle this week and will miss, the entire season.

Barnes was the Bears' primary punt returner, so now Chicago will test Dennis Gentry at that, position. Also, Ditka will watch punters Maury Buford and newcomer Brian Wagner. Ditka was displeased with Buford's 32.4 average In the two previous games. At Redwood City, the San Francisco 49ers waived eight players, including sixth-round pick Bob White and eight-round selection Dave Grayson. White played as a down lineman last year at Perm State, but the 49ers.i Were hoping they would be able make him a linebacker.

White had held out for much of the early camp. Grayson also is a Linebacker. Others waived were veteran nose guard George Achica, cornerback Don Anderson, guard Tracy Franz, defensive ends George Liter and Elston Rigel, and running back Del Rogers, The club also placed seven players 6n injured reserve: receiver-kick returner Derrick Crawford i (foot); defensive end Anthony Holyfield (knee); linebacker Sam Kennedy (wrist); defensive end Kevin Lilly (foot); linebacker Fred Small (hamstring); safety Sean Thomas (ankle); and center Chuck Thomas (thigh).

However, Clark managed to hold on and became the club's all-time leading receiver with 482 catches for 6,460 yards. Again Clark is facing the possibility of not making the team. He had his third knee operation this year and is not yet back; at full strength. Mike Wilson has taken over Clark's starting position opposite Jerry Rice and the club added veteran Tony Hill and rookie John Taylor this fall. "I don't know what my role is going be this year," Clark XJh I iiliiif first quarter, he ran an out pattern and quarterback Joe Montana put the pass on the numbers.

"So I was a little apprehensive. It crossed my mind just to run out of bounds, but I thought What the hell? Take a shot at Clark did not catch another pass in limited action the rest of the evening. "I caught one pass and got a couple blocks," he said.

"I felt like a lug out there. I felt a little off. It was just an average job." The veteran said he, Like many others, had doubts whether he. would come back this season. Th6 49ers' media guide lists Clark's business successes as if it was also bidding good-bye.

Quarterback Jay Schroeder will share time with third-, stringer I Mark Rypien in Williams' absence. Schroeder, a Pro Bowler in his first full season as starter last year, has been sharp in preseason. Markus Koch starts for a third game at right end in favor of injured Dexter Manley, who suffered a partially torn knee ligament in a scrimmage.

Tampa Bay running back James Wilder is expected back after missing last week's game -with an injury. game. The Redskins, whose pass defense plunged from No. 1 in the NFL in 1985 to No. 20 last season, will start three-year veteran Barry Wilburn at right cornerback, as they continue to rotate challengers for incumbent Vernon Dean's job.

Tim Morrison Is considered the favorite to start he regular season at right cornerback opposite All Pro Darrell Green. Second-year man Todd Bowles is also pressing free safety Curtis Jordan, at 33 the second-oldest Redskins player. "It will be good for our guys to go him," Washington Coach Joe Gibbs said of Meanwhile, Redskins reserve quarterback Doug Williams, who played for Tampa Bay from 1978-82 and led the team to hree playoff, appearances, is not xpeeted to play.
