The 19- year-old Page forced Indjeyan into the ropes with a flurry of hard right and left jabs before the bout was called. The Soviets outpointed the Americans in seven of the 11 bouts. The only knockout came in the junior welterweight bout when Andrew Curry decked Viktor Kotovshchikov in the second round. The other US winners were flyweight Richard Sandowal and welterweight Edward Green Yoko Gushiken of Japan stopped Aniceto Vargas of The Philippines in the 14th round last night in Nagoya, Japan, to retain his WBA A junior flyweight championship.

Vargas had been knocked down twice in the 11th round and once in the 13th of the scheduled 15-round fight. Autos: Reutemann defends Brazil title Argentina's Carlos Reutemann parlayed a brilliant start and a scorching first 30 laps into a 40-second lead at the Rio Autodrome track outside Rio de Janeiro then cruised home in his Ferrari 312 racer to win his second straight Brazilian Grand Prix. Second place went to Brazil's Emerson Fittipaldi in a Coper Sucar F-5A, third to world champion Niki Lauda of Austria in a Brabham BT45C. American Mario Andretti, whose Lotus MK-3 was comfortably in second place most of the race, slipped badly in the last five laps of the 63-lap race to finish fourth.

After 10 years as a defensive back, Anderson is now bidding for a seat in the Florida State Senate.

SATURDAY'S LATE ROUNDUP Holy Cross wins Colonial before 14,386 at Garden Holy Cross, a team that supposedly has found itself after a mystifying slump, beat UMass, 76-63, to win the championship of the Colonial Classic at Boston Garden Saturday night, but the surprising aspect of it all was not the Crusaders' successful defense, but the size of the crowd. It was Standing Room Only, a full 14,386, and that's the best college basketball has done in Boston since Bob Cousy, George Kaftan and Co. introduced the game to the local public shortly after World War II.

What the crowd saw was the college game at its best as the Cross played patient offense, patient defense and controlled the tempo all the way. Coach George Blaney got great games from Chris Potter, the tourney MVP, Charlie Browne, John O'Connor, and, of course, from Ronnie Perry. For UMass, any hopes it had of keeping the game from getting away, expired midway in the final period when its two big men were laden with fouls. With 12:06 left and Holy Cross up by five, Mark Haymore picked up foul No. 4.

With 11:13 left, Leo Kohlhaas fouled out. With 8:21 left, it was HC 58, UMass 48. Curtains. In the consolation game Boston College, using a full-court press quite effectively, walloped the University of Connecticut, 101-72. World class marathoner Bill Rogers of Melrose finished a distant seventh in the US men's seniors 12-kilometer cross-country championship Saturday in Atlanta.

He still managed to qualify for the US team which will compete in Scotland for the world championship. The race was won by Dan Dillon of Brighton. Randy Thomas of Boston was second. Both men represented the Greater Boston Track Club. Dr.

(Globe photo by William Ryerson) You may not need that 8-hour sleep Associated Press PHILADELPHIA Each night thousands of persons who are convinced they have insomnia count sheep and pop pills in search of sleep they don't need. They're simply trying to block out life's blahs, says Dr. Joseph Mendels, who directs a newly formed insomnia clinic at the University of Pennsylvania Hospital. "From a physiological point of view these people are getting enough sleep, they just don't think they are," Mendels said in a recent interview. "There has been a dramatic increase in free time in our society and people are becoming very bored.

"How many times can you watch the ninth rerun of 'I Love At 9 o'clock these people say, 'I think I'll go to and they can't (sleep). They want to get away from the emptiness and boredom in their life." Mendels, a medical doctor and a professor of psychiatry at the university, said that about 30 of every 100 persons who say they can't sleep would fall into the pseudo-insomnia category. Another 20 percent, he said, would have a treatable illness like depression that caused sleeplessness. Of the rest, he said, 25 percent would experience difficulty sleeping because they had built up a resistance to medication, 20 percent would have undiagnosable sleep problems; and 5 percent or less would suffer from a rare syndrome in which they stop breathing when they fall asleep, causing them to jerk awake immediately. Mendels discounted the notion that everyone has to have eight hours of sleep to stay healthy.

"Actually, many people sleep six hours or less at night, some as little as two or three hours. For them, that's adequate. They're quite healthy," he said. At the insomnia clinic, volunteer subjects spend the night and are studied. Mendels said brain waves are monitored, measuring such things as the time patients fall asleep and how soundly they sleep.

He said the clinic's goal is to identify and treat the causes of insomnia, not the symptoms. Optimistic on tax proposals Kennedy says he'll back Carter for re-election United Press International WASHINGTON Sen. Edward M. Kennedy said yesterday he plans to support President Jimmy Carter for reelection and he would discourage other Democrats, including California Gov. Edmund Brown from making a challenge.

Kennedy also said he expected more than half of Carter's tax package to pass, because the Senate already came close to passing most of the reform features and because tax reduction is "essential to our economy." In response to a question about his own presidential hopes, Kennedy said he was just re-elected to the Senate and "I plan to serve." Kennedy was interviewed on CBS's "Face the Nation." He has not appeared on a television talk show since 1973. Carter's first year in office produced "a good performance," Kennedy said. "I have no hesitancy in supporting him. I don't think there'll be a challenge. I think he'll be nominated and re-elected." Asked if he would discourage friends of his powerful political family from backing Brown or other Democrats against Carter, Kennedy replied, "I would." Kennedy called the tax package "down payment" toward reform of the 2 men invade home, rob Two men robbed a Newton woman of her 1977 Cadillac, jewelry, liquor, a mink coat and some furniture early yesterday.

Det. Sgt. Arthur Fryer said the woman, was awakened at about 2 a.m. by strange noises in the living room. When she left her bedroom to investigate, she was confronted by two white males, Fryer said.

One of the robbers told her to go US taxation system. When the Administration drew up its proposals, Kennedy said, "The Secretary of the Treasury and the President made a judgment that those tax-reform programs would be the only issues which had been debated. "But," he continued, "I certainly think we would have a tax reform program following this measure." Speaker of the House Thomas P. O'Neill Jr. has said Carter could expect no more than 50 percent of his tax reform package to pass, but Kennedy said, "I would hope that we do better than that," since slight reform would financially jeopardize the tax cut proposals.

Kennedy also said members of Congress should be held accountable by the voters if they failed to approve Carter's plan to abolish some tax advantages for businessmen. "I think the American people would be just outraged that any member of Congress would believe that is a justifiable expense," he said of the tax deduction given business for so-called threemartini lunches. "If those executives came to the Congress of the United States and asked for a billion dollars for appropriations, they'd be laughed out of town," Kennedy said. Newton woman back to the bedroom, where he tied her with nylon stockings, Fryer said. The two men then ransacked the home, Fryer said, and left with her car.

Police said one suspect was arrested yesterday but his name was withheld pending further investigation. The women, whom police did not name, freed herself and called police after the intruders left, Fryer said. She was not hurt, Fryer said. Caution urged in use of aspirin-substitute United Press International HANOVER, N.H. A drug popularly used in place of aspirin to reduce pain should be more strictly controlled, according to an assistant professor of medicine at Dartmouth Medical School.

Dr. Herbert Bonkowsky said yesterday that the drug, acetaminophen, is present in 244 preparations, including several nonprescription drugs popularly used in place of aspirin. Bonkowsky, in a paper submitted to the American Federation of Clinical Research, said studies indicated the was guard at POW camp Mrs. Eva (Barnett) Keene, of Surfside road, Lynn, died at her home Saturday night after a long illness.

Chamberlain of Boothbay Harbor, Maine and one grandchild. Tim McCoy, 87, cowboy appeared in 89 films, Wild West shows, TV Germany said he would have liked to run a sub four-minute mile in the Oregon Indoor Track and Field Meet at Portland Saturday night, but he was not disappointed at his winning time of 4:01.9. "I expected a rabbit and there was none," I he said. However, he outlegged Oregon's Mat Centrowitz for a 10-yard victory. Mexican Olympian Rodolpho Gomez took the featured 5000-meter race and won in 13:47.8.

Another Oregon runner, Don Clary, finished second in 13:48.4 and became the second fastest American ever in the indoors event. His US time is topped only by Glenn Harold's 13:41 in 1974. Ian Campbell of Washington State won the triple jump with a meet record Campbell also finished third in the 60-yard dash and was named the meet's outstanding competitor. Competition-wise the meet was a success but financially was something less than that. It drew only 6508 fans, smallest turnout in the 18-year history of the event.

Hank Stram, who took the Kansas City Chiefs to the Super Bowl and was heralded as the salvation of the New Orleans Saints, was suddenly unemployed Saturday night. Stram, who had three more years to go on his contract, was fired by Saints' owner John Mecom, who said Stram failed to make headway in turning the 11-year-old franchise into a winning team. In a terse, one-paragraph statement, Mecom simply stated that Stram was fired. Sources said the coach will be paid more than $500,000 to settle the remaining time on the contract. In two years, Stram's record was 5-23.

JOHN AHERN Associated Press NOGALES, film star Tim McCoy, who began working as a cowboy at the age of 15 and performed on stage and screen until he retired in 1976, died yesterday at Fort Huachuca Military Hospital, where he was being treated for a heart ailment. He was 87. Tim. McCoy was born in Michigan and had lived in this Mexican-border community for the past 20 years. He had been in ill health in recent months.

One of the great cowboy movie legends, he made the transition from the Wyoming range to Wild West shows, the silent screen, talkies, television and then back to the Wild West show, before retiring in 1976. He also was an author, quick at debunking many of the myths surrounding Western heroes. He discussed those views on many television talk shows in recent years. "This Dodge City crew and the Tombstone gangs were all tin-horn gamblers and, and all Wyatt Earp ever held was a political job. The same went for Bat Masterson," Mr.

McCoy liked to say. He was inducted into the Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma in 1974, along with actor John Wayne, who had been an extra in some of Mr. McCoy's films. By his 15th birthday, Mr. McCoy was riding the Wyoming range, working as a ranch hand in cattle drives.

During World War I he was a lieutenant colonel in the infantry. He was a master of Indian sign language, which caught the eye of a Holly- wood scout and led to a leading role in the motion picture, "The. Covered Wagon." Mr. McCoy performed in 89 movies, most of them Westerns, but his last role was in "Around the World in 80 Days." He won an Emmy for his Tim McCoy Show on television and then went on a Wild West Show circuit tour- ing the country. Gato ne Mr.

McCoy's late wife, Inga, met him while working for newspapers in Washington, D.C. She made headlines herself in the 1930s with interviews with Adolf Hitler and other Nazi German leaders. They had two sons, Ronald and Terry, both of whom live in Nogales. Jimmy Lombardi, sheared the famous Nicholas (Jimmy) Lombardi, a barber who sheared the heads of famous public figures and Harvard scholars, died yesterday at Lawrence Memorial Hospital in Medford. He was 88.

Mr. Lombardi, who lived in Medford, was proprieter of LaFlamme's barber shop at 21 Dunster Cambridge. He was a legend among Harvard students and faculty and as familiar as the Yard itself. His old-fashioned shop was frequented by John F. Kennedy, Felix Frankfurter, Joseph P.

Kennedy and probably every Harvard College president since 1939, when Mr. Lombardi started at LaFlamme's. Mr. Lombardi, born in Potenza, Ita- TIM McCOY 0 ly, was known as an old fashioned barber, who would rather use scissors than modern hair-cutting tools. When John F.

Kennedy once told him he was going to run for President, Mr. Lombardi quipped: "Are you smart enough?" drug, if taken in large quantities on a daily basis, may damage the liver. The incidence of liver damage is unknown, but evidence calls for caution in its use, he said. "I don't want this to lead to a big scare thing. But I would advise anybody who is regularly taking more than to 3 grams a day to be checked for the possibility of liver injury.

I would predict the majority would not have any problem from it, but some might well show some liver injury," Bonkowsky said. Mr. Lombardi leaves his wife, Ida (DeChristofor); two daughters, Belle McGrath of Marblehead and Rose M. Hutchinson of Florida; four sons, Fred A. Lombardi and Edward Lombardi of Medford, Nicholas Lombardi Jr.

of West Peabody and Richard D. Lombardi of Florida. A funeral Mass will he said at 10 a.m. Wednesday at St. James Church, Medford.

Burial will be at Oak Grove Cernetery, Medford..
