became the latest casualty of New York house cleaning Saturday when he was traded to New Orleans for the first-round choice No 15 overall in the May 1 National Football League draft Todd was the No 1 draft pick in 1976 but he never was willing to live up to the image or able to match the performance of his fellow Alabama alumnus and New York predecessor charismatic Super Bowl hero Joe Na-math Todd expressed delight at the trade glad the situation came he told The Associated Press feel like going back home think great I think anybody who followed Joe (Namath) was going to have a tough time Probably the next quarterback who comes in here will be accepted a little more easily have as hard a time as I did" And Todd said he expected to experience more relaxed in New Orleans The trade packs the roster with four quarterbacks Todd 38-year-old Ken Stabler Dave Wilson and Guido Mer-kens And it leaves Joe Walton the Jets' second-year head coach with a decision whether to go next season with Ken O'Brien the No 1 draft pick in 1983 from the University of California-Davis who never has thrown a regular-season pass or Pat Ryan a little-used reserve for six years never had a football team that had too many good players at one New Orleans coach Bum Phillips said in a statement released by the Saints and running back are two areas where you especially need In the last week the Jets also have traded defensive linemen Abdul Salaam and Kenny Neil to San Diego for the Chargers' second-round pick in 1984 (No 39 overall) and former starting linebacker Stan Blinka to Denver Broncos for a

junior men's curling championship said his rink had a little luck in whipping Frank O'Driscoll of Newfoundland 11-3 in the second round of the 1984 event Sunday night However to most people who watched the game at the Assini-boine Memorial Curling Club Houston 18 was stretching the point and only being modest after his rink rolled over the St entry to earn a share of the lead Houston erased a 2-1 deficit by stealing four points in the fourth end when O'Driscoll was light with a last-rock draw Then in the seventh end the BC rink cracked a five-ender to put the game out of reach who lost 6-5 to de-fending champion Jamie Schneider of Kronau Sask in the 1983 final at Halifax conceded alter the seventh end got a couple lucky breaks" said Houston "They (Newfoundland) play too badly got a couple bad breaks in the two big ends we had But we're happy really happy the way we're curling right now We're Three tied Houston who opened the Pepsi-sponsored tournament with a 4-1 win over Kevin Park of Edmonton Schneider and Bob Ursel of Winnipeg each had 2-0 records after first-day play of the round-robin portion Schneider who represents Canada next month in the world junior tournament in Cornwall Ont took an impressive 7-3 win over Ontario's Steve Hartley of Thornhill in the opening round In the second draw Schneider overcame a stubborn Prince Edward Island rink skipped by Alan Brown of Charlottetown by scoring once in the 10th and final end for a 6-5 victory Meanwhile Ursel's Manitoba foursome started the day with a 4-1 win over Danny Bentley of Truro NS In the evening Ursel took

Gareau said "The cool breeze and the slow early pace really helped me happy with my performance and I feel I'm improving at the right time The heat and dry weather bothered me somewhat but it was a good experience for me I had hoped to run under 2:28:00 today but with these distractions I must say I'm LA QUINTA Calif Top-seeded Jimmy Connors struggled but regrouped in time Sunday to defeat second seed Yannick Noah 6-2 6-7 (7-9) 6-3 in the final of a $250000 men's tennis tournament The victory was worth $34000 to Connors while Noah earned $17000 The match which lasted two hours and 33 minutes was played before a capacity crowd of 801 0l Connors using his strong backhand and consistent serve had little trouble winning the first set He held serve four times and broke Noah twice in the opening set The first time Connors broke Noah the final point was a foot-fault on Noah From that point on Noah was obviously upset and seemed to lose his concentration Noah had trouble with his serve in the first set as he converted just eight of 19 first serves Connors on the other hand got in 17 of 22 first serves The second set began much the same as the first as Connors broke Noah in the third game and held in the fourth to take a 3-1 lead At that point it seemed as if Connors who also won the US National Indoor Championship in Memphis Tenn last week was headed for a straight-set victory But Noah then held serve broke Connors and held again to take a 4-3 lead The two then traded games until Connors held serve to tie it 6-6 and force a tie-breaker In the tie-breaker Noah jumped out to a 3-0 lead but Connors then won four straight points before Noah won six of the next nine points to clinch it During the same round Noah fought off one match point In the third set Connors held serve five times and broke Noah once for the win It was the fifth straight time Connors has defeated Noah Edwards' closing 64 wins it all at LA Open THE ROYAL TRUST RRSP LETS YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND WITH IE CHANGING ond in this one came from nowhere got in front in a hurry the question in mind was: can he hang on Well he certainly answered that question" Edwards did not make a bogey He got in front with birdies on the first two holes played the front side in 31 and never looked back When he finished well ahead of the other contendere he had a four-shot lead Nicklaus and Renner his two closest challengers couldn't match his effort Birdiod two Nicklaus birdied two of the last four holes but by that time was hopelessly out of it Renner with a closing 69 took second at 282 Nicklaus was third at 69-283 For Edwards the victory was worth $72000 from the total purse of $400000 And it prompted Jonnie to start thinking about living room furniture "We built a new house last she said living room is sitting there empty were just kind of waiting to see how things went this year I think the first thing we do get some furniture for the living While making those domestic decisions David said he'll go to work on rearranging his schedule for the year The victory made him eligible for his first appearances in three elite events: the Masters the Tournament of Champions and the World Series of Golf And he said he will give consideration to a first trip to the British Open Dan PohL with a 66 and Mark McCumber with a 70 tied for fourth at 284 Miller and Jim Colbert each with a 70 followed at 285 Dan Halldoreon of Winnipeg finished at 76-300 worth $832 Dave Barr of Kelowna BC carded 78-301 for $804 and Richard Zokol of Vancouver and Jim Nelford of Burnaby BC missed the halfway cut by one stroke LOS ANGELES David Edwards has some decisions to make And so does his wife Jonnie But pleasant decisions the happy results of a victory he did not expect in the Los Angeles Open golf tournament certainly did not expect to Edwards said Sunday after stalked away from the best field of the year on the Professional Golfers Association tour with a spectacular seven-under-par 64 in the final round was just trying to make a good cheque get another good finish" Instead he got the first individual victory of his six-year tour career a three-stroke triumph nailed down by the best round ever played Lower before had lower scores before but not on a golf course like this not in competition like this not against a field like this kind of wondered if it was ever gonna happen Well it finally has And I couldn't have picked a better place a great golf course and against the best field the game has to The course was the tough old Riviera Country Club layout which most pros said played at its toughest this year As an example of its difficulty only three men broke par for 72 holes The qualifying figure for the final two rounds was an extremely high 151 In a full tournament under assault by such stars as Jack Nicklaus Lee Trevino Seve Ballesteros Tom Watson Ray Floyd Johnny Miller Hale Irwin and Hal Sutton it yielded only three scores below 69 just shows you the depth of the talent we have on the tour now" said Nicklaus started one shot out of the lead and had a 69 Riviera that ought to get you something But not when somebody else is shooting a fabulous said Jack Renner a winner a
