"I'm not going to accept a poor effort from anybody even in a wliuiihg ef' fort," said Nolan.

"It's Just a case where I'm not going to sacrifice a giroup 6f people who waint to win, who are working haixl to win, for someone who is not putting forth the effort."

An on-side kick attempt failed and San Francisco ran out of time deep in its own territory as the game ended. A play that occurred in the second quarter loomed larger and larger as the afternoon wore on.

Linebacker Buddy Curry stopped Cooper on a fourth down play on the one-yard-line. Although San Francisco forced Atlanta to kick and then got a 47-yard field goal from Ray Wersching, the final score told the significance of the four lost 49er points.

Although Atlanta finally settled for a 23-yard Tim Mazzetti field goal, Falcons coach Leeman Bennett saw the series as a crucial one. "Our ability to establish our running early In the second half was the key to the game," he said.

Andrews, a bowling ball style runnfer who stays low to the ground and bounces off 100 yards on the ground and caught passes for 15 more. Once Andrews helped the running game get established, Atlanta quarterback Steve Bartkowskl mixed in enough passing to engineer two fourth quarter drives. He avoided a tough rush to hit Alfred Jackson from 10 yards out for one score while Lynn Cain scored the other touchdown from the two. That made it 20-3, but the 49ers dominated the action from there. Eagles shot down by the Cardinals BY JOE CARNICELLI UPI Executive Sports Editor The Philadelphia Eagles soared into St.
