The page is blank. Conference commissioner Dick Martin said the Sports Time television schedule will be completed this week.

MVC athletic directors will participate in a conference call Tuesday to discuss, among other things, final arrangements for the Sports Time game of the week telecasts. All parties here said that the SIU-Tulsa contest Sept. 1 will be on. The problem of the starting time has yet to be worked out. Martin said the packaging of the I-AA playoffs to the networks has yet to be worked out.

If I-AA officials cannot sell television rights to the networks, the playoffs may be in "I don't want to say the playoffs are in trouble, but without that support, there could be some difficulty," Martin conceded. Indiana State Coach Dennis Raetz was much more blunt. "With the overall greed prevalent in college football, I'm not sure the I-AA structure can survive as it now stands. The whole funding of the I-AA playoffs revolved around television.

The Salukis were chosen third in the coaches poll. "It's always nice to be picked in the top half," he said.

"That should mean you have a chance to compete for the championship. The reason we were picked for anywhere from third is fifth is the fact that in the skilled areas we don't have a lot of proven players returning." SIU has lost two receivers this summer due to academic problems. The first was James Stevenson. The latest is Sebron Spivey. The Salukis begin fall practice Thursday.

Davis smashed the pitch from Montreal's Dan Schatzeder into the left-field seats for a two-run homer, sparking the Cubs to a 4-1 victory over the Expos.

"They've been pitching our guys in all during the series, and I was looking for a pitch in there," Davis said. "The home run came at a big time. It must have been a mistake pitch." Dennis Eckersley, 6-6, pitched 6 innings for the victory, yielding seven hits and one run. "I thought Eckersley ran out of gas. That's why I went and got him," said Manager Jim Frey, who removed the pitcher with two runners on base and a 4-1 lead in the seventh.

The veteran right-hander, who was acquired from Boston in June, hasn't pitched a complete game since May 27. George Frazier, who came in a trade with Cleveland later in June, pitched 2ls innings for his first save with the Cubs, striking out three. The Cubs chased Montreal starter Dan Schatzeder, 4-3, with four runs on seven hits in 3 innings. Montreal scored its run in the seventh on Tim Wallach's double and a single by Doug Flynn. Giants 9, Braves 2 ATLANTA Bob Brenly drove in four runs with a homer, double and two singles innings Saturday night as the San Francisco Giants defeated Atlanta and ended the Braves' three-game winning streak.

Brenly's home run came in the first inning after Chili Davis singled and staked Mike Calvert, 1-1, to a 2-0 lead. Davis led off the third with a walk, moved to third on a single by Brenly and scored on a single by Scot Thompson. Padres 5, Astros 2 HOUSTON Tim Lollar and Craig Lefferts combined to scatter 10 hits and Tony Gwynn had three hits, including a home run, as the San Diego Padres defeated the Houston Astros. Mets 4, Pirates 3 PITTSBURGH Pittsburgh reliever Kent Tekulve walked Hubie Brooks with the bases loaded in the eighth inning to force home the winning run and New York relief ace jesse Orosco pitched out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the ninth to preserve the Mets' 4-3 victory. With one out in the eighth, reliever Rod Scurry 3-6, walked Keith Hernandez and Darryl Strawberry's pop fly fell in short left field for a double.

George Foster was intentionally walked to load the bases, bringing on Tekulve. He fell behind Brooks 3-0 before walking him on a 3-1 pitch. Tom Gorman, 3-0, the third of four New York pitchers, pitched one inning and was credited with the victory. Orosco worked the final two innings and notched his 22nd save despite yielding a leadoff double in each inning. Davis tion later accepted by Oklahoma State coach Jimmy Johnson.

Cooper, also the athletic director at Tulsa, has turned down numerous head coaching positions at bigger name schools in the last few years. "It was an excellent package financially, but money is not going to make John Cooper happy," he said. "I've seen what happened to Chuck Fairbanks. I'm at an age where if I move, it's going to be a good situation." The negatives at Miami were many, said Cooper, despite the national championship season. Cooper said Miami officials made it clear that the new coach could not take his assistants with him, unless Miami assistants resigned first.

In addition, the Miami athletic director put in a buyout clause to the five-year contract stipulating that if the new coach left before the contract was up, he would have to pay Miami the balance. "If I go to another school, I'm going on my terms, not someone else's," Cooper said. Miami's offer was well up in the six-figure bracket. TULSA QUARTERBACK Steve Gage says he knows what the Golden Hurricane have to do to get a bowl bid. "The way we look at it, we've got to win all of them maybe then they won't have any choice." Cooper's teams have won eight or 5.

Yankees 8, Indians 5 NEW YORK Don Mattingly blasted a three-run homer in the first inning and rookie Dennis Rasmussen pitched six innings for his fifth consecutive triumph as the New York stretched their winning streak to seven games Saturday night by defeating the Cleveland Indians.

Rasmussen, 6-3, allowed four hits and three runs before needing relief from both Mike Armstrong and Jay Howell in the seventh inning. Dave Righetti pitched the final 13 innings for his 19th save and seventh in his last seven appearances. He allowed a run in the ninth on Pat Tabler's sacrifice fly before retiring Mel Hall on a bases-loaded grounder to end the game. Dodgers 5, Reds 3 CINCINNATI Greg Brock drilled a solo home run and Dave Anderson added a squeeze bunt as the Los Angeles Dodgers scored twice in the 11th Saturday to nip the Cincinnati Reds 5-3. Brock homered off Tom Hume, 3-12.

Anderson's bunt came after Bob Bailor singled, stole second and took third on a passed ball. Pat Zachry, 5-3, the fifth Dodger pitcher, notched the victory.

Harrisburg, 3-0 in the tourney, will face the winner of last night's Mur-physboro-Marion contest at 1 p.m. today for the title. The winner advances to the five-team state tournament in Rolling Meadows next week. Murphysboro led 9-2 in the late night contest after four innings. Murphysboro jumped on starter Scott Grobe for six runs in the first inning and added two in the third and one in the fourth.

Mike White was Grobe's opponent on the mound. Rain at Riverside Park in Murphysboro both Friday and Saturday played havoc with the tournament schedule and backed up the start of the Murphysboro-Marion game to 10:30 p.m Saturday night. The winner of that game will have to beat Harrisburg twice tomorrow, since Harrisburg defeated both Murphysboro and Marion on Thursday. Smithton was eliminated by Marion Saturday night. Steve Rothch-ild's two-run single in the top of the ninth gave Marion a 7-6 win and a crack at Murphysboro.

Smithton had gone ahead in the eighth on a solo home run by Charlie Jarvis. Kirby Brewer got the win in relief.

Tom Miller then hit a made-to-order double play ground ball to second base, but the ball was booted, loading the bases for Rothchild, who delivered the decisive blow. Smithton threatened in the bottom of the ninth, putting runners on second and third with two outs. But Brewer retired Tom Forsyth on a tap down the first base line to end the game. Earlier Saturday, Harrisburg's Tim Watson hurled his team past Smithton and into the final with help from ace Mike Murrie. Trailing 4-0 in the eighth, Smithton loaded the bases with one out when Murrie came in in relief of Watson.

The big lefty struck out both hitters he faced, then fanned two in the ninth to nail down the win. Mark Parker took the loss. Murphysboro, a 2-1 victim of Mur-rie's Thursday, took its frustration out on Mount Vernon Saturday and romped to a 15-1 win.

Lisch relieved Neil Lomax in the second quarter and after the Bears had mounted a 10-0 lead, he directed an 81-yard touchdown drive which was climaxed by a one-yard touchdown pass to Doug Marsh to cut the lead to 10-7 at halftime. Late in the third quarter, with Lisch completing passes of 26 and 13 yards to John Goode and another of 15 yards to Oliver Williams, the Cardinals went ahead when Earl Ferrell banged into the end zone on a short run.

He fumbled but Carlos Scott recovered for the touchdown with :01 left in the period. Paulling's field goal came midway through the fourth quarter and was set up by runs of 13 and 22 yards by third-string quarterback.
