The Las Vegas oddsmakers have made the Colts, champions of the National Football League, 18 ̂ -point favorites over the American Football League winners. The spread is somewhat surprising because the Green Bay Packers were only 14 points over Kansas City in 1967 and 15

over Oakland in 1968. However, the Packers whipped the Chiefs 35-10 and turned back the Raiders 33-14.
Namath's success in the third Super Bowl, starting at 3 p.m. EST, (NBC-Radio-TV), win depend on the ability of the Jets' offensive line to keep the Colts' strong rush off his back. The Jets were able to give Na-mah, 6-foot-2 and 195 pounds, such fine protection during the regular season that he was dumped only 18 times in 14 games.
* • • Coach Weeb Ewbank was re
vamping his offensive line up to the last minute before the Oakland game and wound up using a guard, Dave Herman, at right tackle in an attempt to control Ike Lassiter, the Raiders' left end, who demolished rookie Sam Walton in an earlier game.
It will be the job of Winston Hill, 6-« 280-pound tackle to keep Ordell Braase, 6-4, 245, a 12-year-veterao, from smearing Namath as he had roughed up Cleveland's Bill Nelsen last week. Bob Talamini, 6-1, 255, an AFL veteran, must take care of Fred Miller, 6-3, 250, regarded by many as the Colts' top defensive lineman. Center John Schmitt, 6-4, 245, will be occupied with either middle linebacker Denny Gaubatz, 6-2, 232, ear a tackle,
On the other side of the line it wifJ be. Randy Rasmussen, 6-2, 255, a second-year pro who lost his starting job to Talamini before the switch, against BilLy Ray Smith, 6-4, 256, a tackle who has been around 10 years. If Ewbank goes with Herman, 6-1, 2S5, again he will be blocking against Bubba Smith, 6-7, 295.
The CoHs' linebackuig crew of Mike Curtis, 6-2, 232, a mad dog oh the left side, Gaubatz in the middle and Don Shinnick, 6-0 228, on the right side, stunt with the front four and also help in pass protection. Namath can expect to see one of the linebackers in a blitz every now and then.
• • * On the passing game, George
Sauer, 6-2, 195, will draw Lenny Lyles, 6-2, 204, as his prime competition in most plays. Pete Lammons, the tight end, 6-3, 283, will be watched by strong safety Jerry Logan, 6-1, 190 and Don Maynard, 6-1, 179, the flanker whose catches of Namath passes beat Oakland, will be shadowed by Bobby Boyd, 5-10, 192. The Colts' free safety, Rick Volk, 6-3, 195, will help the others on deep coverage and occasionally take the running back.
When Morrall, 6-2. 206, goes back to throw he will be counting on his offensive line of Bob Vogel, Glenn Ressler, Bill Curry, Dan Sullivan and Sam Ball.
Vogel, 6-5, 250, who will be playing with his broken left wrist in a cast, wiLl be pitted against Verlon Biggs, 6-4, 268. Ressler 6-3, 250, must handle John Elliott, 6-4, 249, a fine young tackle from Texas. Curry, 6-2, 235, may work against the middle lineacker, Al Atkinson, 6-2, 230, or a tackle.
On the right side, it will be Sul-I Bvan, 6-3,250, against Paul Roch
ester, 6-2, 250, and Ball 6-4, 240, ! against all-league Gerry Phil-• bin, 6-2, 245.
If MorralTs receiver is Jim-I my Orr, 5-11, 185, at split end, it j will he the job of Randy Bever-1 ly, 5-11, 198, to cover. If It is
tight end John Mackey, 6-2, 224, the primary responsibility will belong to strong safety Jim Hudson, §-2, 210.
• • • . Willie Richardson, 6-2, 198,
; one of MorralTs favorite targets ha recent games, draws Johnny Sample, 6-1, 204, or Cornell Gordon, 6-0, 187, who replaced him against Oakland after Fred Bil-etnikoff beat Sample a few times. Free safety Bill Baird, 5-10, 180, roams the range depending on the type of defense used.
The linebacking trio of Ralph Baker, 6-3, 235, on the left side, Atkinson in the middle and Larry Grantham, 6-0, 212, on the right side, must pick up the backs coming through for a pass, help out the corner men and turn in the running game.
The Colts have run the ball more this year with Merrall, instead of Unitas, at the controls. They scored all four touchdowns on the ground against Cleveland. Tom Matte, 6-0, 214, their versatile halfback who can run, catch and throw the ball, as. well as block, is the big threat, Jerry Hill, 5-11, 215, handicapped by injuries in late season, is a superior blocker and strong runner.
New York's running game accounted for 22 touchdowns, an AFL high, with fullback Matt Shell, 6-2, 219, doing the heavy duty with Emerson Boozer, 5-11, 202, to the outside.
Summarizing the two clubs, Baltimore scored 56 touchdowns and gave up only 16. New York scored 45 but gave up 36, although they ranked first in total defensive yardage. • Morrall threw 26 touchdown passes in regular season and was intercepted 17 times. His average pass was good for 9.18 yards. Namath completed 15 for touchdowns but had 17 intercepted and averaged 8.28 yards per pass.

Expect 50,000 r or s, Vikings
MIAMI (AP) - The disappointed Dallas Cowboys and the surprising Minnesota Vikings battle for the National Football League's, consolation prize Sunday before an expected crowd of 50,000 fans in the Orange Bowl.
They call it the NFL Playoff Championship, a game between the second place teams of the Eastern and Western conferences. Most of the receipts from the game go into the players' pension fund.
The game was invented by the players in 1961 when the Detroit Lions defeated the Cleveland Browns, 17-16. The Western run-nerup has won seven of the eight games played. The St. Louis Cardinals of 1965 were the only Eastern winner.
• * * There isn't much at stake ex
cept the pride of a good performance for some of pro football's finest. Each member of the winning team earns $1,200, and each loser, $500. An estimated $175,000 is put into the pension fund.
Artistically, the game shapes up as a test of Dallas' great offense against Minnesota's solid defense, bulwarked by the tough front four of ends Carl Eller and Jim Marshall and tackles Gary Larsen and Alan Page. The Cowboys, directed by quarterback Don Meredith, were the top offensive team in the league.
Meredith completed 171 of 309 passes for 2,500 yards and 21 touchdowns in the Cowboys' unsuccessful bid to gain the NFL title. Dallas Coach Tom Landry admits he's eager to see how Meredith rebounds from one of the quarterback's biggest football disappointments—the 31-20 loss to Cleveland in the Eastern championship game.
Landry said Meredith usually
bounces back. "It frill be Interesting to watch," iaid the Dallas coach. "He'll be up against as tough a rushing(line as we've got in this league*. "He's gone through a lot of disappointments. What effect this (the Cleveland game) will have, remains to be seen. I think he'll come back."
In addition to Iferedith, Dallas counts on pass receivers Bob Hayes, Pettis Wurman and Lance Rentzel, and the running of Don Perkins and Craig Bayn-ham. Its defensive line is one of the toughest in the league with such standouts a t Larry Cole, Jethro Pugh, Bo>- Lilly and George Adrie up ffont, and Mel Renfro, Mike Gaetcher and Cornell Green in the secondary.
Landry says h* hopes his team comes backf strong from its Cleveland loss, but he's careful to note that the Cowboys have put in a fun-Work week in Miami Beach. "HaVre enjoying ourselves here ia Florida and we don't have thai 24 hour concentration you need for a top game. They (the Mayers) seem in good spirits, wfcich probably is a good sign they'll play well. We'll see."
Coach Bud Gent's Vikings appear to be in a feetler psychological frame of ifind. The Vikings weren't supposed to be here according to pre-season predictions. They svere selected to finish among the also-rans in the Central Division.
Minnesota, hoajever, posted an 8-6 record, wonlts division title and moved forward as one of the coming young teams in the NFL. The Viking^ lost a hard fought 24-14 ganif to Baltimore for the Western Conference title. This is Minnesota's first post-season competition. The Vikings came into the league in 1961.

THE ALLEGHENY College football team, which boasts a host of Western New York talent, has received official congratulations from the Pennsylvania House of Representatives.
The resolution passed by the House eitetT the Gators' "exciting come-from-behind football", making special note of Allegheny's 38-32 rallying victory over Thiel in the championship game of the Presidents' Athletic Conference.
The document was presented recently to Coach John Chuck-ran and his tri-captains, one of whom is star end John Bough-ton, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold G. Boughtoa of the Town of Tonawanda.
BOUGHTON, who played at Kenmore West, teamed with a former St. Joseph's of Buffalo standout, Mike Ganey. to set several Allegheny^ pass r e ceiving records. Ganey is the son of Mr. and Mrs. George Ganey of Kenmore.
Other WNYers with the Gators were Mike Creenan, son of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Creenan, also of Kenmore; Conn Smith, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Smith of Grand Island; Dave Wilson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Wilson of Niagara Falls; John Lyth. son of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Lyth of Tonawanda; Pat Bobo, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Bobo of Niagara Falls, and Don Alvarez, son of Mr. and Mrs. Sebastian Alvarez of Niagara Falls.
NIAGARA Frontier athletes are well represented on the sports rasters at St. John Fisher College hi Rochester.
Dick Hessinger of Kenmore, a graduate of O'Hara, is a starter with the Cardinals' basketball varsity, and Mark Vingoe, former Tirnon standout, is a member of the school's varsity wrestling team.
Two more graduates of the Msgr. Martin Catholic League are working with the St. John Fisher basketball frosh. They are Bill Coppola of Canisius High and former Timon star Larry Schulz.
NOTES — Former Niagara Falls standout Jessie Jefferson is captaining the Utah State varsity cage team . . . Cleveland State, a Buffalo State fee for the last few years, plans a 20,000-seat arena for its expand
ing program. Diyton will replace its 5.900-seat fieldhouse with a 12,000-seat structure. That should alienate the kind of pressure for tifekets that has resulted in 180 ttraight home game sell-outs . j . The Louisville freshman team has the Missouri Valley area buzzing. The Baby Cardinals recently beat the varsity,! 107-90. It was the varsity's onlr loss of the season . . .
