Continued from Page Cl Coryell The paying customer may not always be right All one had to do was turn his ear toward the bar before the Raider Rooters' weekly meeting last night at Neptune's table to determine responsibility for Sunday's 21-14 loss by the Oakland Raiders to the New England Patriots Quarterback Kenny Stabler was the most mentioned goat After all Stabler's errant throws were the most visible most easily remembered targets for criticism Regardless of Patriot quarterback Steve Grogan's rushing heroics apparently forgotten were a controversial clipping penalty which nullified a Raider score and Errol Mann's two missed field goals Regardless of an outmanned offensive line which couldn't contain the Patriot pass rush to keep the pressure off the Raider star But Oakland linebacker Monte Johnson Stabler's counterpart on the Raider defensive unit has a different perspective another view about the loss and what he and his teammates need to do to pick up the mired-down club It's the defensethe six-year veteran said before the Rooters' dinner meeting "What hurt us was Grogan" said Johnson "Just look at what they did rushing They had around 200 yards rushing and if you take away Grogan's 65 yards that leaves them with just 135 yards less than threeyards-per carry Grogan averaged 10 yards per run "That shows you we need tostop the big play We'd stop them for the first two downs and then the third comes up They'd come up with the big play That's what hurt us "Our job is to hold them that third down and turn the ball over to our offense All we have to do is give the ball back to Kenny and he'll put the points on the board" Johnson who starred defensively with 14 unassisted tackles praised the toughness of the New England players but maintained the Raiders weren't beaten physically "It's most! a mental thing knowing what the particular club is capable of doing in a certain situation and then preparing for it making sure you play your spot and don't go just for the big play Making sure your mind is with your man and not in their i year's crowd was between 7500 and 8000 Amateur Carl Pagluica playing in pro Keith Fergus' group skulled a wedge shot near the ninth green and it sailed near the gallery on the first tee His ball hit a man on the back of the head and bounced back onto the ninth green It left him with a 35-foot putt and he lipped the cup in a birdie attempt Many of the players left immediately after their going to the World Series of Golf in Akron Ohio and others headed for the Pacific Masters in Japan Sacramentan Gary Shupe another local amateur eagled the 18th hole using a driver and hitting a three-iron 185-yards to within 10-feet and sinking the putt Ken Still who said "my game stinks" and scored a 74 is an absolute baseball "nut" He was the first base coach for the Tacoma Twins of the Pacific Coast League in 1974 and he's a personal friend of Tom Lasorda manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers "I'll see Tom at the playoffs" said the optimistic Still "and again at the World Series I hope they throw champagne on me for two days "I've stud'ed baseball for 35 years I feel I know the game inside and out "My ambition is to be a major league manager some day" Bob Smith used to play out of Wailea Country Club in Maui Hawaii but his contract ran out last Februa ry Now he's playing out of Sacramento "because I've

players "I don't know them personally but I do know there is tremendous personnel with the Chargers" Coryell said he plans to keep the staff of assistant coaches and noted that the philosophy of the Chargers both offensively and defensively was very close to his own Terms of his contract with the team were not divulged Coryell said "We really don't have any agreement He (Chargers' owner Gene Klein) just told me to come to work" It had been rumored for months that Coryell would succeed Prothro as the Chargers' coach Prothro 58 was in his fifth and apparently final season as the Chargers' coach Before going to San Diego where his teams were 21-39 he was the head coach at Oregon State for 10 seasons starting in 1955 the head coach at UCLA from 1966-70 and the Los Angeles Rams' head coach in 1971-71 He sat out the 1973 season "Last winter I told Gene Klein I would coach only one more year because I felt we had a good team and would have a good year': said Prothro whose club was 7-7 last season "I still believe this is a good football team and it is a playoff contender "However after disappointing losses to Oakland and Denver and the disaster against Green Bay I feel a fresh approach and a rude awakening may be what this team needs" ize It I ed rs as We He ust ths as tnd ate the Ind the Anheuser-Busch had troubles with his putter only twice That was on the third and 16th

neighbors "I didn't even make $10000 this year and that's embarrassing "Ed Loustalot (who has given Smith golfing tips for the last 15 years) told me there's nothing wrong with my game It's the four inches between my ears that's my he's right" Smith said he has sent resumes to country clubs in Chicago and Atlanta for jobs Tied with Lunn and Smith was Barry J4eckel who finished third behind Tom Watson and Ed Sneed in the Anheuser-Busch "It was a fun day kind of a let-down day" said the 30-year-old winner of this year's Tallahassee Open In the last five days Jaeckel has won $15- 362 "In Napa I was 'keyed up mentally" he said "Today I was relaxed I was helping my amateurs and that's what pro-ams are all about It's for the amateurs it's their day chairman Bob Hurst estimated the crowd at
