So what's new in the Na tional Football league? ' Unitas was held in check for nearly one half before he switched tactics and guided the Baltimore Cols to a 20-0 victory over the Washington Redskins; and the New York Giants threw up one of their patented goal-line stands in the dying minutes to preserve a 21-19 triumph over the San Francisco Forty-Niners. In the other games on Sun day's program, Bobby Mit chell and Jim Brown com bined to gain a total of 309 yards on the ground as the Cleveland Browns walloped the Philadelphia Eagles, 41 24, and the Chicago Bears ral lied to beat the Green Bay Packers, 17-14, on John Ave ni's 21-yard field goal with 35 seconds left to play. Crowds Total 260,000 Crowds totaling more than 280,000 turned out to watch the six-game week end sched ule that opened the NFL's 41st season. The foundling American Football league out drew the NFL in the first at tendance showdown at Dallas, wher the two leagues played games on successive days. But off the opening NFL turnouts, it appeared unlikely that the new pro league could make much of a dent in the older circuit's attendance else where. Sunday's NFL crowds totaled 56,303 at Philadelphia, 53,818 at Baltimore, 44,598 at San Francisco and a 32,150 sellout at Green Bay. In the AFL a crowd of 16, 421 at Houston watched the Oakland Raiders score their first victory when Tom Flo res' 14-yard pass in the final perio dbeat the Oilers, 14-13, and an estimated 40,000 fans saw the Dallas Texans whip the Los Angeles Chargers 17-0. In the same Cotton Bowl Saturday night, the Pitts burgh Steelers spoiled the NFL debut of the Dallas Cow boys, 35-28, before a crowd estimated at 30,000.

Strategy Pays Off For Giants By HAL WOOD San Francisco-IUPD-A little matter of strategy, engineer ed by coach Jim Lee Howell of the New York Giants, sent the San Francisco Forty Nin ers back to heavy workouts today suffering the pangs of a hard-luck defeat in their first National Football league game of the season. Howell saved victory for his club at Kezear Stadium Sunday by calling for his vet eran quarterback, Chuck Con erly, to sit down in the end zone with the ball and give San Francisco two more points rather than attempt to kick from behind the goal posts. "Our best kicker would have got the ball out only to the 30 or 35 yard line," said Howell after the game. "I was sure that if we gave them a. two-point safety, then got to kick from the 20, we could get the ball out of danger and the clock would save us." The strategy worked just as Howell anticipated, and the Giants racked up a 21-19 tri umph. It was a heart-breaker for coach Red Hickey and his Forty Niners to accept. They did everything but win and were brilliant in defeat. "I'll just say we were beaten by a better team," said the down-hearted redhead. But the statistics didn't bear him out. San Francisco got 20 first downs to 19 for the Giants. The club had 216 yards in the air to 140 for New York. Y. A. Tittle com pleted 21 out of 34 pass at tempts. New York had 10 out of 18. But the powerful New York defense told the story. With the Giants leading 21-17, Tittle ran to the four yard line with two minutes remain ing in the game. Four shots at the goal got the ball only to the one. SEARS AUTOMOTIVE Mid-Week Special. SERVICE SPECTACULAR TUES. & WED. " ONLY each O Lube Job O Oil Change S Qt.

SEARS MEnrmtvSJWTMSimi SIPODIHITS KEGLERS KALL By Betty Davis St. Mary's Victor in 5B Tangle Better organized than when they opened league play the week, before, the St. Mary's high Crusaders tabu 1 a t e d their second District 5B vic tory of the season Saturday night by beating a stubborn Bonanza football team 13 to 0. St. Mary's, defending slate co-champs, cracked the tough minded Antler offense in the first and fourth quarters. The Mcdford parochials moved from their own 17- yard line to the goal for their first touchdown with frcd Lucas crossing from one yard away. Jim Calhoun's kick for the extra point failed. Setting up the late fourth quarter marker, A u n d r e Knutson carried the ball from the SM 44 17 yards to the Bonanza 39. Calhoun then passed 25 yards to Paul El liott who ran the remaining 14 yards to the end zone. This time Calhoun's conversion thump was good. One big Antler scoring threat was in the second quar ter when the Bonanzans reached the SM 25 in a series of plays. Denny Ellis faked a pass and skirted end to the 15. The bid was stopped when Calhoun intercepted a pass on the three. In the closing moments of the game Bonanza had a TD chance on a fumbled punt and a recovery on the St. Mary's 23-yard line. With less than a minute to play Ellis com pleted a 10-yard pass to Al O'Conner. Ellis then tried to hit Larry Albert but the aerial was Incomplete at the gun. ' This last threat came after St. Mary's apparently had stopped the Antlers. Bonanza had moved from its own 24 to the Crusader 40 after the SM fourth quarter kickoff. On following plays, St. Mary's red-dogged to spill Ellis for losses. This effort and a pen alty put the Antlers back on their own 40. Then came the punt and muff. Bonanza had first down edge 10 to 6.' St. Mary's gain. ed 145 yards rushing and 71 passing for a total of 216 from scrimmage. No Bonanza yard age was kept. The Antlers held back SM with good defense, mostly 5-4 Marv McGcc, Lucas and Joe Kaizcr were the main stoppers for St. Mary's and Brian Von Busklrk was cred ited with calling a good game in setting up the Mcdford teams defenses. Aundre Knut son and Alex Mete spurred the SM offense. Crusader Coach Bill Mc Kibbln remarked that while his club played better ball than a week ago it "still has a long way to go."
