West Germany the 64-Point question was this could a ragtag Bunch of German american football players do anything against the great Danes of the univer sity of new York at Albany Here was your answer saturday Albany 64, Offenbach beavers 0. It was t Cuba erasing said Albany defensive tackle Anthony Gambino but they did t have the skill position peo ple and they Don t have the coaches we have. We have a  George Bock the Danes right defensive end said we heard they had 15 Guys at practice. You can t be organized Tike that. We had 50 a  a diplomatic Albany coach Bob Ford said for both teams there was just not enough time to practice. But we swarmed to the Ball  you could say that. It was t so much Albany amassing Oklahoma like numbers. The Danes totalled just 12 first Downs on231  126 passing. It was All Albany because of two big fac tors the Danes never turned Over the Ball and their defense devoured Offenbach  recovered two of the beavers four fumbles and it intercepted six of James Tucker s passes. Cornerback. Owen Sanford picked off two and four other Danes Mike Ford Jeff Davis Rich Strachan and Mike Cerminaro intercepted the others. The beavers simply had nowhere to throw not to mention run. Their 15 rushes resulted in minus 20 Yards. Tucker completed 10 of his 22 passes four to Bea vers and six to Danes. Of Offenbach s three first Downs two came on penalties. That offensive performance was directed by a quarterback who played some at Texas i paso. Our problem was a Lack of practice said Tucker a 6-foot-3, 215-Poundcr who normally plays for the German american league s Kaiserslautern warriors when he s not working at  receivers were cutting one Way and i was throwing another  then there was Albany s thieving secondary. They were quite Quick said Tucker. They were not big. But Quick. They were filling the gaps playing zone. We could t get  Tucker s first completion found Chuck Brownlee for 21 Yards and the beavers first first Down. There were two problems Only seconds were left before halftime and Albany already led 40-0. By then even the Frankfurt High school band had Long since walked out. The few Hundred fans who attended this Sun drenched game expected to see Albany Facea German american All Star team. Instead they were treated to Offenbach s beavers of the a a s third division augmented by some other a a players and army Guys right out of the Barracks. What happened the beavers coach . Knox planned to coach those All stars but said he received a letter Friday from the a a s Hussen division stating that the game was against a a league rules and that any All Star playing sat urday would be booted from the league. Knox said that forced him to Field his beavers. I did not mess up Knox said. All the proper letters were written to league Headquarters and to the Hussen office. It s a Lack of knowledge 9n the part of the Hussen people. It s their loss. This is my Swan song with German american  the disgusted Knox an army sergeant who helped found the a a league 12 years ago said he would shoot for coaching in Safe s Continental sports conference. A sympathetic Ford said it s a great experience but i wish All the Good people had played so we could pc seen where we stand. And in turn they could be seen where they  Albany s blockers and runners were less sympathetic. They slowed to nine touchdowns and one Field goal a 45 yarder by Anthony Chechilo. Is Lynda w.

The Danes spread the Rush ing wealth with Pedro totalling 40 Yards Gordon 39, Mcneil 35, John Albrici and Adams 32 each and Giroux 31. The tackling was t there Adams said of the beavers defense. The Guy were not wrapping doing Basic fundamentals you learn in High school. Their Guys were Good sized. If it was body building or a track meet they d be like us. But it s Basic  Pedro the no. 2 rusher in Albany his tory praised the great blocking. The offensive line did a helluva Job.

I blocked  s Rhein main teammates Tim Langley and Rich Lawlon never dressed out. Bill Carey the rockets line coach yanked his guards and left Knox s staff Fri Day when he heard he would t get Offen Sive line help from other a a teams. Carey did t want to risk his players health.
