ILLINOW SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1971 Many Hurt The Year Of 'Vackup Quarterbacks In NFL By BRUCE LOWITT Associated Press Sports Writer In this year of the "backup" quarterback, two more passers get the call Sunday in National Football League play. Already this season, Al Woodall of the New York Jets has taken over for Joe Namath, Billy Kilmer of Washington has succeeded Sonny Jurgensen and I Scott Hunter has replaced Green Bay's Bart Starr, all due injuries. Now it's up to Ken Anderson Kent Nix to show their Anderson, a rookie, will start for in place of Virgil Carter, the American Conference's leading passed, when the Bengals host Miami.

And Nix, the spark in a pair Chicago victories, iwill take over for Jack Concannon as the Bears take on New Orleans. Sunday games find Pittsburg at Cleveland, Houston at Washington, Green Bay at Detroit, Mhmesota at Philadelphia, Denver at Oakland, San Diego at Kansas City, Los Angeles at San Francisco, Baltimore at St. Louis at Atlanta, and the New York Jets at New England. In Monday night's nationally televised (ABC, 9 p.m., game, the new York Giants are at The Bengals, preseason pick by many to win the American COnfreence Central title, were dealt a blow when Carter suffered a shoulder injury last weekend. Anderson finished their game agafaist Bay, hitting nine of 16 passes for 93 yards and a touchdown.

Nix, usually saved for fourth- quartep heroics, had to come in early against Los Angeles a week ago when Concannon injured a knee seriously enough to requh-e surgery. Nix wound up completing only five of 23 passes for 60 yards. The will send their Bob Griese-to-Paul Warfield passing team and the running tandem of Larry Csonka and Jim Kiick against Chicinnati the will count on 'Archie Manning to connect with the AFC's leadmg receiver, Dan Abramowicz, against the Bears. The Steelers and Browns are battling for the AFC Central lead and Pittsburgh, with Terry throwing to Ron Shanklin and Dave Smith or handing off to John Fuqua, is aiming for its first victory since 1964 in Cleveland, which counters with rushers Leroy Kelly and Bo Scott. The Redskins go for four in a achievement they haven't registered at the start of a season in 28 the winless Oilers.

The Packers, who couldn't score two against the Lions a year ago, are counting on rookie John Brockington, the AFC's No. 2 ground gainer. Detroit will be ithout Mel Farr, sidelines shoulder. by a dislocated The Eagles, still looking for victory No. 1, will be going for it with a new coach.

Ed Khayat, formerly their defensive line coach, replaced Jerry Williams, who was fired Wednesday, But they'll be trying against' the Vikings, who have the stingiest defense in the NFC. Denver's staunch pass defense will have to contend with Daryle Lamonica of the Raiders, who can also counter with Marv Hubbard's rushing. The Chargers, with lap AFC receiver Billy Parks, are out to repeat the 21-14 comeback victory they pulled off hi their first meeting with the Chiefs this season. The 49ers hope to avenge their preseason loss to the Rams. The Colts win have running back Norm Bulaich and linebacker Mike Curtis back in action against the winless Bills.

Bob Berry of the Falcons has thrown for 300-plus yards in each of his past two games but he hasn't faced a team with as solid a pass defense as the Cards, second best in the NFC in that department. Jim Nance of the Patriots will be trying to rush for at least 60 yards against the Jets, which would boost him over the career mark. New York has yet to allow a touchdown on a has yet to throw one. The Giants have lost Tucker Frederickson with a hamstring pull but hope to be able to use another running back, Ron Johnson, out since preseason thigh surgery. The Cowboys, out to rebound from their loss to Washington, will activate running back Duane Thomas.

He waves his arms. He cheers. He jumps up all over the place. It is distracUng. The captabi should keep stiU." Tkiac also was upset about the fans.

"In the past, I have found American fans very sportive. But in Charlotte, I think maybe they are too patriotic." Certainly, spectator excitement reached an abnormal peak Friday when Stan Smith, the G.I. from Pasadena, beat Romania's Ilie Nastase in the openhig match 7-5, 6-3, 6-1 after Miliich Tiriac and Froehling staged a wild marathon that semi-darkness. Tiriac, wearing a handlebar mustache and a shock of curly black hair that makes hun look like a Hollywood villafai, swept through the first two sets only to have Froehling storm back to take the next two 6-1, 6-3. In the fifth set, Froehling had a 5-3 lead with service and had a match pohit on Tirlac's service at 5-4.

He missed the sideline with one of his round-house forehands by a scant half-inch.

Amholt Smith, Padres' co-owner. "However, I would not be surprised if they decide to stick it out another year," Webster said Friday night. Webster, chairman of the board of "The Toronto Globe and Mail, said he had made two bids for the Padres in recent months, but he did not reveal the amount of either offer. His first offer was made durhig the summer, but was rejected. He then was invited to submit another bid.

E. J. "Buzzy" Bavasi, the Padres' president and other co-owner, admitted Friday that his organization had received five offers to purchase the club. But Bavasi indicated that he and Smith would prefer to keep the club in San Diego. San Diego, which has finished last in the West Division in each of its three seasons in the National League, was the only NL club to attract fewer than one million home spectators during the 1971 season.

The Padres drew only 540,000. In 1969, their first season, they attracted 513,000. Attendance in 1970 was 644,000. If Toronto eventually gains a franchise, it would be the second Canadian city with a major league baseball team. The Montreal Expos joined the NL's East Division in 1969, the same year San Diego gained admittance to the league.

(AP) Four drivers remained to be selected today to round out a field of 40 starters for Sunday's $107,000 National 500, an early fall classic that is expected to draw 70,000 auto racing fans. Thirty-six hopefuls made the lineup in three days of time trials, including Charlie Glptz- bach's pole-winning effort of 157,885 miles per hour in a Chevrolet on Wednesday.

The list includes all of the top NASCAR regulars, but it remained for A. J. Foyt, auto racing's all-time money winner with more than $3 million, to set the fastest time of the week. The Houston veteran missed the first two days of time trials, but when he finally unlimbered his poppy red Chevrolet Friday, he did it with a He blitzed the 1.5 mile Charlotte Motor Speedway at 158,492 m.p.h. Since he qualified on the third however, his fast time was good only 25th place.

Twelve spots had been taken in each of the first two days of trials. "This little bomb, this Chev- vy will really go," Foyt told all who would listen. "If it holds together, and I think it will we'll be challenging the front runners before we go 100 miles." Glotzbach's front row mate, Buddy Baker in a Dodge, agreed. "That little car will really go. I'm going to be watching my rear view mirror from about the 20th lap on.

I know he'll be there." Baker and the other NASCAR regulars got the up-front berths in the first round of trials. The second row includes the Allison brotheri, Bobby and Dohnie, in Mercurys. Richard Petty, the season's leading money winner with $234,000 and a thrie-time winner from last year, holds down the third row with Pete Hamilton, in Plymoujihs. The race drew 71 cars. With the field limited to 40 starters, speedway officials set up a 50 lap consolation race for 3 p.m.

today, offering more than $5,000 in prize money for cars that failed to make the Imeup. Sunday's winner will be paid $18,000 plus lap prize and accessory awards. Longest Prep Streak In State Ends SPRING VALLEY, 111. (AP) The longest high school football unbeaten streak in Illinois history has ended. Geneseo, unbeaten in 52 consecutive games, lost Friday night to Hall Township, 14-12.

Geneseo played one tie, a 7-7 bout in 1968, and that was the only time in 52 contests the team did not come out a winner. "The sun will come up tomorrow," said coach Bob Reade. "We've done something no other team in Illinois history has done and that's no reason to hang our heads, A pair of missed extra points cost Geneseo a tie in Friday's game. Geneseo led 12-7 with only moments remaining in the game. Hall's Jim Frey caught a six-yard pass from quarterback Rod Chiesi for a touchdown with only 49 seconds remaining on the clock.

The Vote was announced as 53, and it was reported unofficially that Stanford and either Washington or Oregon nfiay have backed Cal in the voting. "We were not backed 100 per cent," said US football coach Ray Willsey. "But the real damage was done several weeks ago when we weres put on probation." The NCAA Council put Cal on probation last Aug.

21 on grounds that two years earlier it had failed to file requested test results for two athletes to show they were capable of maintaining a 1.6 grade average. The probation was indefuiite, but Cal elected to play Isaac Curtis, a 9-3 sprinter, and tight end Larry Brumsey in football this year. The Bears were stripped of their 1970 NCAA track and field championship because of Curtis. Pacific-8 executive director Wiles Hallock said the decision "establishes a conference position which eliminates the cui'- rent concern that conference games against California will have an effedt in the selection of a Rose Bowl representative or will count in the conference standings. "At the same time, it carries with it the provision that should California's appeal to the NCAA be successful prior to the conlusion of the season, the Bears' games will count." The Pac-8 supported Cal's request to the NCAA for prompt action on the appeal and called for a review of the 1.6, grade ruling.
