All-around athlete Jim Walsh, who helped Doc Er-skipe's Crusaders this year by playing quarterback instead of his specialty (fullback), was selected to the first club as a fullback. Now this may seem strange to those fortunate enough not to have been one of the opposing linebackers who tried to stop this "quar- leroacK wnen ne tried a "quarterback sneak." Ask any one of those linebackers, they'll admit that Walsh is a fullback and it doesn't matter where he lines up. He also made first team defensive end.

Also on the first string offensive team for Riordan is outstanding little Carl Bra-boy. Only a sophomore, Bra-boy has shown poise this year that some players never acquire in three years of prep ball. There's going to be a lot said about this youngster in the next three years.

His pretty No. 1 rooter, Jerri, says that while she's biting her nails to the bone "I atways do" about what's coming up, Steve is "just going about things like always." "I guess I am a little shaky about it all, like. I guess, any rookie, would be," Spurrier admitted.

"But, for some reason, I think I'm going to do pretty well. "I feel our offense has the right things to go against them. It's up to me to come up with the right things at the right time." n.ML CHANGE With 49er fans hailing the if only because it signifies a willingness to try something else when the usual isn't getting results, there can be no question but that some 40,000 Kezar patrons will be understanding. win ii.m.i mm COLT RECEIVER TOUGHEST IN LEAGUE TO HANDLE Willie Richardson, guarded by Jim Johnson, grabs pass OFFENSE Pos.

(AP) -Shunned by the home-town Orange Bow Committee, the Miami Hurricanes will gain a measure of satisfaction tomorrow night by shattering the bowl's attendance record in a crucial meeting with Notre Dame. A crowd topping 77,000, more than the Orange Bowl ever attracted for its New Year's Day game, is in prospect as Miami shoots for its seventh straight victory and the Top Ten. For Notre Dame, the battle is equally important. Unable to take bowl bids, the Irish aim only for national recognition, and they'll be fighting to improve their No.

The 76.400-seat stadium has been sold out for some time and 1,200 to 1,400 bleachers will be erected among the palm and orange trees in the open east end of the stadium to catch the overflow.

UCLA Defense Kcvcd on Back LOS ANGELES (UPI) UCLA trained its defense yesterday to try stopping Larry Csonka, star fullback of the Syracuse football team. The teams wind up the season at the Coliseum Saturday. Coach Tommy Prpthro sent the Bruins through a two-hour workout which included a scrimmage on the muddy field at UCLA. The offense worked at protecting the field goal kicks of Zenon Andrusyshyn, who missed on three attempts last Saturday.

Two of his attempts were blocked. The Bruins used John Waldrop. a 6-foot-membcr of the Redshirts in the line that, rushed the kicker. It was 6-8 Bill Havhoe. USC who helped nullify Andrusyshyn's at-temrts last Saturday.

SENIORS READY "The seniors are the big reason. We all want to go out as winners."
