Vnlinn So. m.ft at Ciiirgi Pitt linebacker honored by A.P. PITTSCUKGII i APi SuperjUtions can appear out of nowhere and that's why University of Pittsburgh linebacker Kaiph Cindrich walked gingerly around the Los Angeles Coliseum before Pitt's game with UCLA la.st weekend. He was daring his knees to give way. as they had on two of the last three times he had faced the Drums, causing him to miss most of the 1DG8 and 1970 seasons.

IM this time his knees didn't give, so he figured: "I really have nothing to lose. If it happens, it happens. On the first couple of series I was nervous, scared to get hit. Then suddenly it went away." The Panthers upset UCLA. 2'J-23.

and Cindrich was named Lineman of the Week by The Associated Press, the first one in the young season. He was credited with eight tackles, four assists and two recovered fumbles which the Panthers turned into touchdowns. swims regularly in the adjoining field house complex that, bears his name. The athletic nickname isn't the only thing that has changed at Illinois State since Horton came to the Twin Cities. For one thing, he was the only coach at ISU until the arrival of Joseph Cogdal in 1927.

Today there are 21 fulltime coaches on the staff, plus numerous other personnel that contribute to Red-bird athletics. Those coaches, past and present, are special guests this Saturday for ISU's annual "Letterman's Day" football game against Central Missouri State. Several of ISU's pioneer coaches are planning to be on hand. Cogdal, best known for his basketball and track successes, will attend. So will former athletic director and football coach Howard Hancock, for whom Hancock Stadium is named.

So will former baseball coach Harold Frye, now living in DeFuniak Springs, Fla. So will James "Pirn" Goff, an ISU sports great under those coaches in the early Thirties and later head basketball coach at his Alma Mater. And so will a number of other Redbird coaches James Collie, Arley Gillett, Donald Karnes, Robert Pomrenke, J. Russell Steele. Harry Tholen, Wayne Trucx.

Milt Weisbecker (ISU's present, athletic director and former golf coach) and. of course, the current coaching staff. They're all Redbirds of a feather thanks to Pop's decision to change the school nickname. 1 the Central Phnois gia'c Uague. was called up by the this week after leading the International Uague in earned run aw rage fur the Tidewat'T u.try.

The) are an honest clMt to halt crackbai blocking and spearing It is true that there is a legal dipping one. and every coach who knows football is fully aware of the fact lhat blocking is an important part of the game, if v(xi are to lick anvlxxiy.

Put no coach want.s to see a boy hurt, and should place a lot of emphasis on the fact that the new rules change tins part of the game. A legal dipping one is a just behind the defensive line where offensive linemen can carry intricate blocking: legal clips, so to seak. It has reached the place, however, where some line coaches were leaching their bovs to play wide or going in motion and would come flying back into this one and blindside an unsuspecting defender. This is strict 1 against the dipping rules now and any player stationed 5 or more yards outside the dipping zone, who comes back and clips gets a l.Vyard penalty. Up until this season only the ball carrier was protected against spcaring-driving the helmet into a player, usually prone on the ground before the referee's whistle had blown.

All players are covered by Uie I'JTI code and it too is a 15-yard penalty. As in the Federation rule book, the uprights and crossbar can no longer be decorated. Another climb up the ladder for Danny Menendez, former Titan who Wednesday-was named assistant general manager of the Montreal National League club. Menendez formerly served as director of minor league operations for the Canadian dub and will now be General Manager Jim Fanning's top aide. Mel Didicr of Baton Rogue, who is Uie father of the young Braves' catcher, has been promoted to Menendez' old post.

Didicr has been a scout with the Montreal club. Danny, who teamed with Jack lloren-bcrgcr in the keystone combo three decades ago at old Wilder Field, started his baseball career with Dallas in the Texas league and then worked for the Yankees. At one time he and Dale McMackin of Collinsville owned the Toledo America Association club. Menendez signed Hank Bauer for the Yankee organization as well as a dozen other major league players who have made good while he was scouting. Southern launches its 1971 football season at Dayton, Ohio Saturday Dayton opened its season Saturday by running past University of Cincinnati, 16-3 and Coach Towers is not at all pleased with what he saw.

His big hope is a Shelbyville, 111., lad named Brad Pan-coast, a senior, who blossomed only last fall, passing for 1,326 yards and nine touchdowns. Four men that Towers banked on heavily this autumn have been lost by injuries in practice and may be out for the season.

Redbirds In these days when schoolmarms walk the picket lines, it may not seem inappropriate to call a football team the Fighting Teachers. But back in 1923 when Clifford Iv Horton came to Illinois State, he didn't think the nickname Teachers struck a very fierce note for LSU's athletic teams. So, with an assist from ISU's 1910 basketball captain Fred Young, the Redbirds were born. But let's let Horton tell the story. "When I came here in 1923, the teams then were known as the Teachers.

Since the school colors were cardinal and white, I thought it a good idea to call the team the Cardinals. So I tried to introduce that name. "I thought I was really doing something, but apparently it caused some confusion with the St, Louis Cardinals as far as publication was concerned. I came here from Massachusetts, and the professional Cardinals didn't mean as much to me as to some of the local individuals. It meant quite a bit to them.

"Brick Young (then sports editor of The Daily Pantagraph) was responsible for changing us from the Cardinals to the Piedbirds. Because the St. Louis baseball team was also the Cardinals, there was a case of possible conflict in headlining an athletic event. By calling our teams Redbirds, it was easy to identify them with the university, so he gradually shifted over to the Redbirds, "I don't recall exactly when the shift .1 Pops Horton took place, but we were the Cardinals for a very short period of time, I can tell you. "There was no trouble over dropping the name of Teachers.

The fact of the matter is, I never heard a word about it. Everybody accepted the change. I thought it was right. In the long run, Redbirds has turned out to be a very desirable title. I'm very pleased about it." Horton directed men's health and physical education at ISU for 38 years before retiring in 1961.

Still active, he.
