Encounter at Sembach is a meeting of the two strongest football teams in the Continental sports Confer ence.

Claims the tigers of coach Chuck Parker will be our stiffest test of the the Baron Mentor has a right to be concerned since Sembach has allowed Only 17 Points in three conference games. After shutting out two former perennial champions Wiesbaden 20-0 and Rhein main 36-0, the tigers of the american division were ambushed by the we Brucken warriors,17-9, last week in we Brucken. We Brucken now 1-2 in the american division hosts the Hahn Hawks 1-2 sat urday. In sunday games Ramstein 1-2 is at Rhein main 2-1 and Span Dahlem 1-2 travels to Wiesbaden 1-2.

We should have seen them against Rhein main. I wished they had won Raetz said. Now they la be sky High trying to what did Raetz see in the Sembach after the we Brucken game he said i Don t know what to expect. They did t show everything and did t play eve Rybo if he thought that Sembach was looking past we Brucken ahead to bit Burg Raetz answered they but Raetz reiterated Good teams Don t get Down and Sembach is a very Good their running backs impress me their quarterback looks Good and so does the tight end Raetz continued. The Offen Sive line is Good and Quick. And most of All i am impressed with their defense. They have Good size and movement. This is a defensive league this year. Everybody is playing super in his three years at Pitburg this is Raetz Best Start. His potent club opened by smashing Hahn 45-6, then buried Ramstein 44-9 and walloped Span Dahlem 45-6 Las week. Raetz cites a Rule change this season that has created this offensive explosive Ness. The teams in the Csc which play according to Mcaa rules can Only suit up 40 players a game instead of the usual 50 or More. Raetz claims his starting team will play More and therefore will score More Points. But also he pointed out that there will be More injuries. For the second straight week Raetz will be without the services of Mike Stovall the 6-foot-2, 190-Pound signal caller from dal Las who has been sharing the duties with Gerry Mcmiller 6-2, 175, out of Miami. Sto Vall is recovering from a sore leg. Pitburg is dominating the official Statis tics released by the Csc sports office and Raetz and his coaching staff of Hugh beam offence to Bogdanski defense and Ray Lee line have a right to be proud of the Barons.

Mcmiller has completed 50 per cent of his passes hitting on 21 of 42 for 352 Yards and four ads. Anchoring the Baron front Wall is line Backer Fred Skeen who with Mcmillin Are the Only starters from the first of Raetz two Safe Champion teams. Skeen has plenty of help in the forms of tackle Jerry Bay 6-3, 205end Lenny Schelling 6-3, 205linebacker Alan came Ron 6-2, 200end Chris Hill 6-4, 208 and Bob Crawford 6-5, 220. Heading up the blocking in the line is Center Rich Mackey 5-7, 195guard Mike Sorrels 5-11, 225 and tackle Dave lock Wood 6-6,245. Each week we continue to lose key personnel to injuries says Raetz but we also get Back one in particular Raetz pointed out is offensive guard Mal Colm Walker 6-0, 205 who has been out two weeks. He s not at full Speed but he the Pitburg defense will be severely tested by the passing of Dwayne Simon the hard running of fullback Adrian Gilles pie and the elusiveness of running Back re Bald Paul. Simon ranks third in passing with nine completions in 24 attempts for 113 Yards top Csc encounter of Grid season scheduled at Sembach today and three touchdowns.

Up organizers of the 1980 Lake Placid Winter olympics had hoped to stage the games for $100 million but then reality struck causing a change of now they said the Cost of putting on the games runs As High As $117 million. At a hastily called news conference officials of the Lake Placid olympic organizing committee said the construction costs will be $14 million More than anticipated. And Rev. J. Bernard fell executive director of the Lpool noted that the pre sent olympic budget was Able to expand or contract and was not expected to exceed $117 million. Ronald Mackenzie president of the Lpool said of the additional $14 million $9 million is in new funds needed to cover additional items that were not contemplated at the time original budgetary projections were these items Mackenzie said included additional housing requirements and improvements to the existing olympic Arena. Fell said the additional costs reflected reality and a change of scope in the $14 million figure reached follow ing consultation with the economic development administration of the . Department of Commerce is a reduction from a previously reported anticipated in crease of $18 million to $20 million. Also included in the increase is $2.6 Mil lion relating to costs for environmental monitors and the construction of a new 70-meter ski jump. Fell said the new 70-meter jump was required because environmental advisors had told the organizing committee that the existing jump was aesthetically while stressing that he did not expect a deficit at the conclusion of the games fell said if one did occur he was not sure where the additional funds would come from. I Don t know where i d look he said. I might go on television and ask every american to donate 50 sports on of College football Penn state at Ohio state 6 35 ., saturday major league baseball California an gels at Kansas City chiefs 1 30 a.m., Sun Day. And John Saunderson have prepared the tigers for their biggest contest of the sea son. Parker remembers last year s 48-13 thrashing by the Barons very Well. It May be an incentive Tor the tigers saturday. Though Sembach and Rhein main share the american Lead coach tiny Owens we Brucken eleven has definitely become a contender if it plays the rest of the season like it did against Sembach. The warriors pulled off the longest drive of the season 99 Yards to take the Lead for Good Over Semba Cli. Shane Stoddard s 52-Yard run and subsequent four Yard to run highlighted the drive. We Brucken received some excellent defensive efforts from cornerback Larry Moody 5-9, 170end Frank Washington 5-11, 200 and linebacker Terry Garner 5-9,190. Hahn like we Brucken is coming off its first Loop win of the season. Coach rus sell Heald s Hawks pulled a Surprise by polishing off Ramstein 18-3, As Joe Jett passed 15 Yards to Robert Woodfork for a score Robert Flowers ran four Yards for another and Ken Ruiz booted a 42-Yard Field goal. Hahn s defense led by linebackers Larry Dandridge 5-11, 190 and Lee Tisdale shone against the rams. Hahn Span Dahlem and Ramstein Are All tied with 1-2 records and none of the three can afford any More losses since bit Burg is in their division. Span Dahlem nursing its wounds after last week s Pitburg drubbing will try to rebound against Wiesbaden which lost to Rhein main on penetrations 4-3, in an extra period last week. The flyers of coach Arik King must Stop the passing of Greg Tellis and the running of John Bishop if they Hope to Post their second Victory. Tellis ranks fourth in passing while by shop is the seventh leading rusher. On the other hand Spang will have its hands full trying to Corral Larry Rudolph who has rushed for 196 Yards on 43 carries for a 4.6 average. Rudolph s powerful punt ing which leads the Csc has helped wies Baden s cause. He has punted 20 times for 807 Yards and an impressive 40.4 average. Rhein main hoping Pitburg upends Sembach seeks to take Over undisputed Lead of the american division at Marnstein expense. The win Over Wiesbaden May have boosted the Hopes of the rockets who were Low after the spanking by Sembach. Scott Cole engineers the rockets while Jim Murphy supplies the heavy running for coach John Cunningham. For Ramstein coach Al Woods it has been a woeful season for the rams. In three games they have a total offence of just14 Yards. The Bright spot is the ram defense which ranks third in the conference. A win Over the rockets could get ram Stein moving again.
