C6 TIMES-ADVOCATE, Escondido, Friday, July 27, 1984 Seahawks change home opener ter said the Seahawks announcement came as "a surprise" to his team's management. Mariners' Owner George Ar-gyros and President Chuck Armstrong, who has been on vacation, were scheduled to attend a meeting of the Players Relations Committee in San Francisco today. Although Armstrong said the Mariners would drop the suit If the club was awarded the Sept. 2 date, the team's chief lawyer said the Seahawks' decision to move their game solved only part of the their action was not a concession. Seahawks president and general manager Mike McCormack said: "We are adamant in the fact that this does not settle potential future problems in regard to conflict in scheduling and the Seahawks, by taking this action, do not mean to imply such." Both the Seahawks and the Mariners claimed the Sept.

2 date. The American League baseball club, which announced its schedule first, filed a lawsuit July 16 against the Seahawks and King County over the conflict. Mariners' spokesman Bob Por SEATTLE (AP) In a development that caught the Seattle Mariners and sports fans here off guard, the Seattle Seahawks have announced they are switching their Sept. 2 date. By changing the controversial date of their regular season opener against the Cleveland Browns to Sept 3, the National Football League club made a move that at least temporarily defused a standoff with the Mariners.

At the bottom of the issue is which club has first rights to the Kingdome. But the Seahawks emphasized w'i (El -M Super Diamond wins Del Mar feature and weighted at 118 pounds, paid euidance of Laffit Pincay. v. DEL MAR (AP) Super Diamond charged from last place at the halfway point to a victory by a neck over Bosto in the $27,000 allowance feature in the second day of the season Thursday at Del Mar. The slight favorite in a field of eight, Super Diamond trailed the field by one and a half lengths before making his move under the $4.80 and $3..

20. Espontaneo, ridden by Ray Si-bille and assigned 116 pounds, returned $6.80 for coming in two and one-fourth lengths behind Bosto. The early leader, Sagamore, faded at the turn and finished fourth, followed by Double Line, Acquisition, Azu Were and Dunbeath. Super Diamond, which carried 117 pounds, overtook Bosto in the stretch of the 7-furlong turf race for 3-year-olds and up. The winner ran the distance in 1.30 1-5 and returned $7, $3.80 and $3.20 in winning for the first time in three starts this year.

A rejoinder from Joiner: "They have their opinions. A lot of people said Reagan wouldn't win the presidency and he did. We'll have to wait and see." Someone mentioned to Joiner that it was doubtful his six-day absence would affect the 15-year veteran.

Coryell jumped at the chance to answer that one. "He's probably in as good of shape or better than anybody on the football team," said Coryell. "Last year he didn't miss one single practice and he had broken ribs. I think he was the only player not to miss a practice." "Charlie Joiner is always in playing shape," said Zampese. "You could start the season any time, any year, and he'd be in playing shape." Asked if he were ever worried about his unsettled situation, Joiner said, "I was just worried-about missing I hate to miss practice." Typical Joiner.

There was one irony to Joiner's signing. He wore a yellow T-shirt to the press conference. On the T-shirt were the words "High Voltage," accompanied with pictures of Joiner and his former best friend on the team, John Jefferson. Like a fine pass catch, this time the Chargers held on to their gifted receiver.

"McCall is well-acquainted with our two-tight end formation," Lions Coach Monte Clark said. "He will give us more flexibility in our training camp plans." To make room for McCall, the Lions on Thursday released tight end Joel Waller, a free agent from Michigan State, Muir said.

Among the free agents who cannot report to camp until they sign are defensive tackle Mike Dawson and running back Horace King. Wide receiver Leonard Thompson, middle linebacker Ken Fantetti and center Amos Fowler are in the option years of their contracts and are being fined $500 for every day they miss camp. The Indianapolis Colts added two more players to their active roster Thursday agreeing to terms with second-round draft pick Blaise Winter and welcoming veteran Donnell Thompson to training camp. The Colts expect to have another player in camp Friday when their other veteran no-show, kicker Raul Allegre, is scheduled to report to the National Football League team's Anderson College training camp. Winter, a defensive lineman from Syracuse, is expected to report to camp Friday, Colts spokesman Tim Paramore said.

Financial terms of Winter's contract were not disclosed. Winter showed up at the camp when rookies, free agents and selected veterans reported July 13. But because he didn't have a contract, he was not allowed to stay or room with the team. After remaining in Anderson for a few days, Winter returned to New York, saying that he couldn't afford to remain and pay his own expenses. Thompson, a four-year pro who started last year as defensive end, reported to the Colts' camp late Wednesday night and joined the team for breakfast Thursday, Paramore said.

Thompson, a fourth-year pro from North Carolina, reportedly had asked to be traded. He and Allegre, the only Colts veterans who didn't report to camp on schedule, were subject to $1,000 fines daily while absent from Buffalo grabs Hatchett after waiver by L.A. The Associated Press Defensive back Derrick Hatchett, who was drafted in the first-round by the Baltimore Colts five years ago, was placed on waivers by the Los Angeles Raiders and claimed by Buffalo. Hatchett had been in the Raiders camp on a 15-day free-agent basis, a spokesman said Thursday. After being waived by Los Angeles on Wednesday, Hatchett was picked up by Buffalo on Thursday, but because he has four years in the National Football League, Hatchett can choose to reject the Bills and remain a free agent.

Hatchett was released last year by Houston after the Oilers had obtained him in a trade from Baltimore. Raiders Coach Tom Flores said the team plans two-a-day workouts today, then a scrimmage Saturday afternoon for rookies and free agents. Veteran Buffalo Bills center Will Grant is expected to be on the National Football League team's injured list for three weeks following a knee injury he suffered Wednesday in training camp. Grant, who has started 57 consecutive regular season games, underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee here Thursday, a team spokesman said. The lineman from Milton, was expected to be ready for the team's regular season opener Sept.

2 against New England. Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Gary Burley says he's beginning to feel good again as he recovers from a lymph node infection in his groin. Burley was listed in good condition Thursday at Clinton Memorial Hospital. He developed the infection Wednesday. The nine-year veteran is listed as the backup for left end Eddie Edwards.

"I'd been having a pretty good camp," Burley said. "This kind of throws a monkey wrench into things. It's a pretty competitive camp, and. you can't afford to be out. I want to get back soon." Former All-Pro wide receiver Steve Largent will miss the Hall of Fame game Saturday because of the death of his grandfather, says Seattle Seahawks Coach Chuck Knox.

Largent plans to attend the funeral and thus will miss the National Football League pre-season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Canton, Ohio, Knox said Thursday. Meanwhile, he announced the signing of two rookies who were released earlier by the New York Jets, Ted Bosnagel and kicker Marco Morales. Morales played at Sail Diego State. Neither Bosnagel nor Morales will make the trip this weekend, however, nor will veteran wide receiver Dwight Scales, formerly with the San Diego Chargers and Los Angeles, left inside linebacker Joe Norman, and left outside linebacker Mark Hicks. The Minnesota.

Vikings will hold their own draft to split the 85 players into two teams for Sunday's scrimmage. Coach Les Steckel named two player trios who will then draft players, coaches, trainers and ballboys. Quarterback Tommy Kramer, nose tackle Charlie Johnson, and cornerback John Swain will head one team, while running back Teddy Brown, linebacker Scott Studwell, and center Jim Hough will lead the other squad in the purple and white game. Steckel said the mini-draft will let players appreciate what the real braintrust goes through during the draft. And the stakes are high.

The winning team will be served steak and lobster after the game by the losers, who will later dine on paper plates with plastic forks and chipped beef and balogna on toast. The Detroit Lions signed tight end Reese McCall to an undisclosed contract Thursday, while five Lions players remain out of camp. McCall had been a free agent and could not report to camp until he signed a new pact. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.
