Don Kessinger opened the frame with a 'single. Catcher Jerry Grote then threw Matt Alexander's sacrifice bunt into right field, allowing Kessinger to go to third and Alexander wound up on second.

Hooton went the distance for the Cubs, winning his second game in five decisions. Two of the four hits he yielded resulted in the only Mets' tally in the second inning when John Milner singled, stole second, and rode home on Grote's single to tremendous loss to the Vikings. "I personally believe Finks is as good if not the best general manager in pro football. "The primary reason for his resignation was differences between himself and the president of the company. I don't wish to comment any further on those differences." There also were reports that Finks had wanted to buy stock in the team but none was available.

Asked how the change of general managers might affect head Coach Bud Grant, Winter said: "There is no chance at all of any change of the coach." "Bud was my first choice for coach of the Vikings before Norm Van Brocklin was hired" when the team was organized. Winter said. But Grant was coaching in Canada and did not want to move then. Later, after Van Brocklin quit after a dispute with quarterback Fran Tarkenton, Grant became coach. BLOOMINGTON, Minn.

(UPI) Jim Finks, who helped raise the Minnesota Vikings from a so-so expansion club in the National Football League to a Super Bowl team, has resigned apparently because of differences with Vikings President Max Winter. Within 24 hours after Finks resigned from his job at a reported $80,000 a year, 15 candidates applied to succeed him. Winter, who called Finks "as good a general manager as I've ever seen" despite the reports about differences, said he will "really do a thorough job" of screening prospects. Finks, 47, became general manager of the Vikings in 1964 when they were a green expansion team and built them into a championship contender. The team went to two Super Bowls, including the title game loss to Miami last season, and won five division titles.

B. H. Ridder chairman of the Vikings club, said in New York, "This is a Nevertheless, Curry went on to say, "there are very, very substantial differences in our position. The negotiations will be most difficult but I'd be foolish to sit here and say there's going to be a strike." "I hope there'll be no strike but at the same time you recognize that without the ability to strike there's no sense in even discussing the issues, because obviously they're not going to make changes just for the sake of it," he said. "We've got to have some strength, and that strength lies in the ability to withhold services and we have that." There are three major roadblocks between the players and owners, and Curry refers to them as "the freedom issues." The first is the Rozelle Rule, which allows NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle to decide what compensation to award a team which has had a player jump it for another team.

The players want this rule abolished. The players also desire neutral and impartial arbitration of non-injury grievances and abolishment of the reserve clause. New York Professional Football Writers Curry, a veteran center now with the Houston Oilers after playing for Green Bay and Baltimore, was asked what effect the new World Football League would have on the negotiations. "No one's jumped leagues yet," he said. "There's not another league yet.

Nobody has convinced me the WFL will be here in July. I'd like to think so, obviously that's competition. But just to blindly accept the reality of WFL football really would be naive on our part. It could happen, but there's still the possibility it could not." Should the FL develop into a strong league, however, Curry said, "If I were an owner I'd like to set my own house in order so that if a guy is not happy on one team, there is some potential for him to move to another club and stay within the National Football League rather than jump to another league." "It would seem to me that would be the reasoning rather than to dig your heels in, make the players even more unhappy in the setting they're in, and have them go to the WFL," Curry said. annual dinner.

"I think people realize they're going to have to sit down and solve whatever problems there are. That's the j-eason I'm optimistic." I Citing the fact there's still about two nonths before the contract expires, Curry idded, "I am as optimistic as I can be and oelieve me I am not kidding when I say we -Van settle the thing. There's not a person in ur organization who is out to shut down 'inybody or strike anybody just so we can nlfill some personal vendetta. I want to ettle il." 1.
