I IB'. If I 1 later, behind fine blocking by guard Mo Moorman. If there was a key to the game it was the ability of the Kansas City defense, which led the AFL, to stop Osborn and Bill Brown, the top Viking runners.

Kapp, who operates at his best when he can pass as a counterpart to a successful running game, was forced to take desperate chances. The Chiefs' defense blanketed the Viking receivers so tightly in the first half that in one series of. three plays, Kapp completed three passes, gained only eight yards and had to call a punt. At halftime, the leading rusher was Frank Pitts, the split end, who carried the ball only on the end around plays that confused the Vikings. He wound up with 37 yards on three carries, second only to Garrett's 39 on 11 carries for the new world champs.

7 dwson spent a spent a week of troubled sleepless nights under severe strain because his name had been linked, in unconfirmed reports, to a nationwide gambling investigation in Detroit.

This was the last game ever to be played by the AFL, as such, a fitting climax for its 10 years and its rise to equality with Broadway Joe Namath and the New York Jets a year ago In sharp contrast to the happy victory scene in the Chiefs' locker room, the disappointed Vikings kept newsmen away from Joe Kapp, their inspira tional leader who suffered an injury to a muscle in' his left Shoulder in the fourth quarter and had to leave the game. The Chiefs bottled up Min nesota's vaunted running game and controlled the football with "V'uperb defensive effort while i directed their varied offense with finesse. Three Field Goals Jan Stenerud, the Norwegian soccer style ace, kicked field goals of 48, 32 and 25 yards and Mike Garrett scored once on a five yard run for a 16 0 halftime lead. After the Vikings struck back for a touchdown by Dave Os pborn on a four yard run in tjie.1 third quarter, Dawson put the gajne away with a 46 yard pass to Otis Taylor who made two fine moves enroute to the clinching touchdown.
