Gotor Bowl Teams Shaken? Volunteer Coach Offered Fla. Job BEST BY BALLOT By CHARLES S. ALDINGER JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (UPI) --The biggest question about Saturday's Gator Bowl football clash between Florida (8-1-1) and Tennessee (9-1) is not who will win. It's which coach will bo sitting where when the music stops? Tennessee Coach Doug Dickey isn't ready to say.

In fact, his terse admission that Florida had offered him Kay Graves' coaching job was barely out of his mouth Tuesday before the motel operator stopped switching calls to Dickey's room. Tennessee's athletic director, Bob Woodruff, himself a former Florida head footiball coach, wasn't happy about the whole thing being out in the open just before the big game. Not good for morale, you know. "I have no comment," snapped Woodruff from his motel room near Dickey's. "And I'm sure Coach Dickey has said all that's going to be said about it for right now." Graves, 51, denied that he is giving up his job as head coach to devote his full time to being Florida athletic director, the other cape he wears on the Gainesville, Fla.

campus. But the fact that Dickey, 37, had been offered the job confirmed what a number of southern newspapers had been reporting for several weeks: Graves is tired from the demands of two jobs and will quit despite an all-sophomore backfield which promises at least two more years of gravy at the Gator helm. If Dickey, a graduate of Florida who played quarterback for the Gators in 1951 and '52, turns down the Florida job, then it apparently will go to Florida assistant head coach Gene Ellenson, 48, a specialist in mdbile defenses. Both Dickey and Graves have compiled strong records at their two schools and both jobs are considered top plums in the college ranks. Dickey, who makes $26,500 a year in salary and about $25,000 in fringe benefits such television shows, has compiled a 46.14.4 mark in six years at Tennessee.

And Dickey has won championships in the tough Southeastern Conference in two the last three years including this year. That's something tha' Graves has never done a Thurmond Cleared In Paternity Suit SAN FRANCISCO (UPI)--A Superior Court jury Tues day dismissed a paternity case involving center Nate Thur mond of the San Francisco Warriors.

1 passer in he league, with the most com- letions and the greatest yardage and deserved his designation to All-Pro status. But Gabe, as the guys on be Rams call him, was the winner. He gave them the big play when it counted. He was he stalwart who stood up to enemy blitzes and delivered the crucial offense on a team which didn't score in big bunches. He also provided the pay-off--more touchdown passes than any quarterback in the league.

There is a precedent for the Jurgensen-Gabriel switch-off on honors. In 1959, Johnny Unitas of the Colts was voted the quarterback on the player's All- Pro team but Charley Conerly a split ballot, was awarded the Jim Thrope Trophy, as the most valuable player. In this year's i Jurgensen was second, followed Bears, who made a remarkable Byrd, Buffalo. comeback from knee surgery to lead the NFL in rushing, and Joe Kapp, the inspirational leader of the Minnesota Vikings' attack. A distant fifth was Calvin Hill, the rookie of the year and a surprise spearhead of the Dallas Cowboys' ground game.

Gabriel will receive his trophy at the NEA-CBS AltStar party in Hollywood's Television on Jan. 15, and the ceremony will be shown na- ionally on the 1969 NFL All-Pro show, Sunday, Jan. 18, p.m. EST, before the ro Bowl game.

The 38-year-old Wampfler was selected to take over coaching duties at the Western Athletic Conference school by university Athletic Director Perry C. Moore.

"CSU is ready to break out of the shell and make a name for itself in athletics, and I'm happy to be a part of it," Wampfler said. Wampfler, who played college football at Miami of Ohio where he also did some coaching, said be would come to Fort Collins early next month following the Cotton Bowl game between Notre Dame and Texas. "I'll stay on with the Notre Dame squad until after the game with Texas," Wampfler explained. "That's still my responsibility, and I want to go out a winner at Notre Dame." Wampfler said he was leaving West scored a 10-7 win to take a 12-17 edge in the series. Linebacker Maxie Baughan of the Rams was chosen for his ninth Pro Bowl appearance to make him the veteran member of the West team.

Other veterans include Merlin Olsen of the Rams making his eighth straight appearance; defensive back Willie Wood of Green Bay picked for the seventh time and John Mackey of Baltimore and Mick Tingel- hoff of Minnesota making six appearances.
