I Jb 1 r2 SATO ARAKAWA THE KANGAROOS ciated Press' version of the college division top 10 Thursday. The Hurons, 6-0-1 for the season, received two first place votes but McNeese State of Lake Charles, was named first on 11 of the 18 ballots and easily took over the top spot from Delaware, which dropped to third after losing to Temple, 32-27, last weekend. "This is the best thing that has happened to McNeese State in a long time," said an exuberant Coach jackDoIand Thursday after his unbeaten and untied Cowboys had been ranked No. 1.

"It's a great honor, an honor we didn't expect before the season started. "We came from no ranking at all to the top," continued Donald, who played on the first McNeese football team in 1945.

Pill Many mora a in division races, and Colts hav9 solid edge. Baltimore is favored by six in Monday night national TV game, and that's about right.

'ATLANTA (3-3-1) at Cincinnati (14): Paul Brown and Bengals have fallen on mighty lean days, now have lost six straight. Virgil Carter is ready to return at quarterback, but that's not enough. Atlanta is favored by four and it should be more. OAKLAND (3-1-1) at New Orleans (24-l) Raiders showed Kansas City ol man George Blanda is for real; this week, they won't have to pull him off bench. Oakland is favored by 13, and that's a breeze against weak Saint defense.

HOUSTON (1-5-1) at New England (2-5): Patriots have brought in new receivers (Eric Crab-tree and Reggie Rucker) as targets for Jim Plun-kett's passes; Oilers have added new runners (Bob Holmes, Dickie Post) to complement Don Pastorl-ni's passing. Houston has a slight edge on defense. Houston is favored by six and that's right. KANSAS CITY (5-1-1) at New York Jets (2-5): No match here. Chiefs are favored by 14, and it should be more.

Buffalo (0-7) at MIAMI (5-1-1): Only winless team in pro ball comes up against budding power, and is simply overmatched in all phases. Jim Harris has replaced Dennis Shaw at quarterback. Miami is favored by 17, but that's pushing it a bit. Cleveland (4-3) at PITTSBURGH (34): It's chance for Steelers to Jump into tie for AFC Central lead against Brown team that's crumbling. Browns won, 27-17, a month ago, but have not played well since.

Game is rated even, but look for Steelers to get even. BY GEORGE PUSCAS "ree Pre Ixecullve Iwti Editor A quick look around tt the games, the prospects, as the pro football season enters its second half: (Selections in capitals, The record: Last week, won eight, lost three, tied two; season, won 56, lost 30, tied five.) National Conference DETROIT (44-1) at Denver (244): Lions scoffed three years ago and regretted it; they dare not scoff now because season is at stake and Broncos present far tougher threat than record suggests. Strong running frcm Floyd Little, passing (sometimes erratic) of Don Horn can upset Detroit defense. Broncos have some problems, though, since Horn is inclined toward interceptions (he's league leader) and they have problem reaching the end none despite Impressive yardage figures. Denver defense, now minus end Rich Jackson, has allowed only 206 yards a game against some of AFL's best, and Lions will need solid overall performance to get by this one.

Detroit is favored by six points and that's the limit Green Bay (24-1) at CHICAGO (5-2): Bears are making a strong run with lefthander Bobby Douglass at quarterback, and Packers don't have enough to stop 'em. Bears are favored by six and that's about right. SAN FRANCISCO (5-2) at Minnesota (6-1): 49ers have had their bad moments and hopefully, no more are ahead. John Brodie still runs a slick offense that can score against anyone, and that's 49ers hope against overwhelming Viking rush. Vikings had awful time getting by Giants last week and can be taken by a team that won't beat itself.

Minnesota is favored by three, but look for an upset here. Philadelphia (2-5) at WASHINGTON (8-1): Eagles are shaven clean and the hairless ones have NFL Statistics GREAT BUYS FOR HUNTERS won last two; it's meaningless really because they were coming along anyway. Improving defense will keep them in most games, but Redskins have edge here with stronger attack and steadier defense. Washington is favored by 14, but that's stretching it a bit. San Diego (34) at NEW YORK GIANTS (2-5): Problem here is how much Giants have improved since return of Ron Johnson.

Giants' snowing against Vikings suggest improvement is great. Chargers offer some passing threat, but defense has never faced the likes of Fran Tarkenton. Game is rated even, and Giants get the nod here. DALLAS (4-3) at St Louis (34): Cowboys continue with alternative quarterback scheme, but trouble really rests with defense, which yields too many points. Dallas has better running, passing, but can hurt on the ground and in the air.

Dallas is favored by six and it's another close one.

They're a six-point favorite over the AFC Western Division cellar-dwellers.

Vikes Appeal MINNEAPOLIS (AP) The Minnesota Vikings of the National Fotball League have gone to court to challenge a government ruling ording the team to refund more than $250,000 to its fans. The club filed a challenge to the ruling in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis. The Vikings had been told that the club's increase of $1 in ticket prices from 1970 was a violation of the administration's wage-price freeze. Rushers Rushers Att.

Passers Passers REMINGTON HUNTING CARTRIDGES 3030 Reg. 4.85 MEXICO CITY (AP) Lee Trevino, playing nearly flawless golf, fired a stunning seven-under-par 65 Thursday and stormed Into a three-stroke lead in the first-round of the Mexican Open. Trevino, a heavy favorite to add this national title to his collection of American, Canadian and British Open crowns, didn't miss a green and didn't miss a fairway on the demanding Club de Golf course, ranked by many pros as one of the world's best.

And he did it with a bogey, three-putting the first green when a cameraman jumped into his line when he was making his second putt. "I GOT HOT on that," Trevino said, "but it may be what got me going. I just said to myself, 'Hey, now. You've 71 more holes to play in this tournament and you might play 'em in "I figured I was hitting it good and had a chance to get three or four birdies, so I just backed off and calmed down." His forecast was poor. He had eight birdies on the tight, course that played even longer because of a morning rain and cloudy, overcast skies.

It took over six hours to play the round, as the field went out in foursomes and ran into a jam when they made the turn. Att. Com. Yd. TD Alt.

"There also will be a meeting of PSL coaches Friday morning. Coaches and athletic directors will both be there and we'll decide what course to take.

"The two big things that will be discussed are the possibility of boycotting Friday's games just not showing up for them and the possibility of looking into the chance of organizing another league." Cheolas said a number of coaches around the PSL are unhappy. "We feel the league is not in control. Some schools are given preferential treatment and we just feel it's time for us to make the people aware of what's going on," he said- The winner of Friday's game if it is played will meet Northwestern for the PSL championship Nov. 13 at Hamtramck's Keyworth Sports on TV SEX A'ow tliat ire have your attention, we'd like to re-mind you to protect your car from being burglarised with a siren type car burglar alarm.

KANSAS CITY- (AP) -Coach Hank Stram of the Kansas City Chiefs predicted Thursday that the Wishbone-triple option will be adopted by professional teams. "An option play such as you have in the Wishbone or in that category will become an integral part of a pro football team's offense in future years," Stram said.

"It will not be used as exclusively as it is in college. "You couldn't go directly to the option and not use anything else in your offense. The option attack by itself could not survive in pro football. But segments of an option offense will be used in the future. "It will give the pro offense new dimension.
