The flyers of Joe Glowski will face their biggest test of the season in meeting the rockets of John Cunningham. A rocket win will throw the american division race into a two Way tie and maybe a three Way deadlock should Sembach win. As the old cliche says throw everything out the window when the rockets and flyers meet. Emotion plays too big a Rolein this one to pick a favorite. Judging by one common foe the flyers could rank As a slight Choice. They sneaked by Sembach 13-6, to open the season while Sembach sneaked up on Rhein main last weekend at Rhein main and administered a 13-7 shocker. Pitburg after demolishing what was considered to be a Fine Ramstein eleven,28-6, in Pitburg goes after its 15th straight Victory against the shrieks who showed some offensive punch in their 26-17 defeat to Hahn last week. Wiesbaden operates behind signal caller Bennie Barnes and the solid Rushing of Lee Helms who ripped off a 62-Yard scampering the 22-8 Triumph Over we Brucken last sunday. Rhein main like Wiesbaden counts More on its running than passing. Eddie Harris has been the main cog in the Rock ets ground attack. But the rockets Quarter backed by Dwight Jackson can be successful in the air what with receivers like tight end Ralph Mcafee and split end Steve Holm Green around. The defense has been a Strong Point forthe flyers during the first two weeks of the season allowing Only 14 Points which i two More than the 1977 Safe Champion Barons have yielded.

Rhein main is hoping to rebound fro the Sembach disaster. A loss to the flyers will certainly impair the rockets chances of repeating As american Baron defense nearly duplicated Wiesbaden s feat. The first eight Points in a 15-Point first Quarter against the ram were tallied by the defense. Fred Skeen the Strong Baron linebacker dropped ram quarterback Larry wooden for a safety and later in the period blocked a punt which was recovered by 1976 All Safe Middle guard Al Shipp fora touchdown. Besides Skeen and Shipp Pitburg has received top performances from defensive ends Henry Jeffress and Marvin Beesley r who took Over in the second half of the 7-6 extra period Victory Over Hahn looks As if he has nailed Dow the Barons no. 1 signal calling role. Coach Bernie Raetz switched last year s no. 2quarterback Clayborn Cook to a running Back last week and it paid off. As a running Back Cook poses As a double threat. He whipped off a 46-Yard pitch to Bennie Hampton after taking a Handoff from bees Ley. The Barons secondary led by Mike Sowers Jerome Epps and Sidney Gordon will be severely tested by pass conscious Chris Heim who throw a scare into the Barons late last season before Spang fell,28-14. The sheiks gained 236 Yards passing and86 Yards of that total came on a to toss from no. 2 quarterback Calvin Lamb Jonathan Lorenzo. If the Pitburg Spang game is close in the late stages the outcome could be decidedly a foot. Both clubs possess Fine place kickers. Spang s Frank Askeland booted a40-Yard Field goal while Pitburg s Shawn Brock also has Fine Field goal Range and inconsistent with his conversion kicks. The we Brucken Sembach game shapes up As a close one and could go either Way. While Sembach whipped Rhein main by a touchdown coach Michangelo Mcallis Ter s warriors lost to the rockets by a to. We Brucken prevented a shutout which would have been the first of the season in the Csc last week against Wiesbaden a Calvin Cameron ran five Yards and scored on the final play of the game. Sembach is a rejuvenated team with it Victory Over Rhein main after losing that season opening Squeaker to Wiesbaden. The tigers of coach Charles Parker have shown a Strong defense and the of sense jells with the running of Adrian Gil Lespie. The Hahn Ramstein match up is a Cru Cial one for both teams if they Are to Over haul the National division leading passing Star Bill Dismukes still on the sidelines with a banged up knee Hahn is hurting for a passing attack. Replace ment Randy Bramschreibe directs the Hawks and tailback Mike Snyder and full Back John smoke give coach John Gaydeski s club a High octane Rushing attack. Also the defense at Hahn has been play ing a big role. The Hawks All Safe tackle Frank Martin was nearly a one Mangang last week with 20 tackles two sacks and one interception the latter resulting Ina 23-Yard touchdown for him. The Wilber Carey coach rams has a Fin offensive attack led by quarterbacks John Narby and wooden and the running of Leon Reilly and Melvin Green. Narby threw for three touchdowns in the 41-14 Winover Spang in the season opener. Sports on Erin major league baseball new York Yan Kees at Minnesota twins 7 w . Satur Day
