(Photo by Steve Bryant) Lombardi rites held NEW YORK (A>)_Vince Lom bardi was described by Terence Cardinal Cooke Monday as a man of deep faith and hope in addition to being a successful professional football coach who reached legen dary stature with the Green Bay Packers. “Vince Lombardi was not only a sports celebrity, a great foot ball coach marked for the Hall of Fame,” Cardinal Cooke said. “What is ultimately more impor tant than all else is that he was a man of deep faith and firm hope.” Cardinal Cooke’s comments came in the homily at the funeral mass in St. Patrick’s Cathedral for the coach and executive vice president of the Washington Red skins who died from cancer last Thursday at the age of 57. Robert H. Finch, counselor to President Nixon and his personal representative to the funeral; Mayor John V. Lindsay of New York; former Postmaster Gener al James Farley; Ethel Kennedy, widow of Sen. Robert F. Ken nedy, and professional football’s top executives headed the list of notables at the cathedral. It was, however, his players, past and present, his former classmates, his friends, football fans, and just plain admirers that filled the 2,500-seat cathe dral to overflowing. Outside, crowds lined the streets before, during and after the one-hour, 20-minute Roman Catholic service. It was the larg est funeral at St. Patrick’s since that of Sen. Kennedy in 1968. In Washington, President Nix on joined about 1,000 other mourners in a memorial mass at St. Matthews Cathderal celebrat ed by Patrick Cardinal O’Boyle. Lombardi’s burial was in Mt. Olivet, a cemetery in Middletown Township, near Red Bank, N. J., his widow’s hometown. His par ents also lived there while Lom bardi coached at St. Cecelia’s High School in Englewood, N. J. Lombardi’s wife of 30 years, Marie; his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lombardi of Brooklyn, and his children, Vincent and Susan, were composed during the funeral mass. Mrs. Lombardi, however, broke into tears as the casket was placed into a hearse outside St. Patrick’s. In addition to representatives of all 26 National Football League teams, the entire Wash ington Redskins and Green Bay Packers squads were flown to New York for the funeral. Lombardi, the son of an Italian immigrant, led the Packers to six Western Conference titles, five NFL championships — the only man to win three in a row—and two Super Bowl victories.

Two favored again By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Wichita Falls and Iowa Park have been tabbed by a panel of high school coaches to retain the state schoolboy football cham pionships they won last season in the first Austin American- Statesman’s coaches poll. The Ennis Lions in Class AAA and the Seagraves Eagles in Class A will join the defending Class AAAA Wichita Falls and Class AA titlist Iowa Park in the throne room this season ac cording to the head coaches on the poll. The poll is a survey of the upcoming football season by a selected panel of coaches from each classification and represent ing the various regions of the state. FOR BEST RESULTS TRY BATTALION CLASSIFIED A&M coach Gene Stallings watched his Aggies practice Monday and said he wished they had two more weeks to get ready for Wichita State. “I wish we had two more weeks of contact and didn’t get anyone hurt. They didn’t look as good today as they did Saturday. They’re getting their timing down a little better but we’ve still got a long ways to go.” The Aggies open the 1970 sea son here Saturday night against Wichita State. Stallings didn’t pick out any in dividuals for special attention but sideline observers were impressed with the running of halfback Steve Burks, the blocking of guard Leonard Forey, the pass rush put on by defensive end James Dubcak and the defensive play of cornerback Ed Ebrom. Lightning kills two gridders ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. <*>)— Lightning struck a high school football field Monday, killing two players in a huddle and injuring 20 other persons. “We had the offensive team in the huddle,” Gibbs High School Coach A1 Campbell said. I heard a loud clapping noise and every body was knocked down — play ers, coaches and everybody on the field — was knocked down. Robert Jenkins, acting as a referee during the practice game, said boys immediately began giv ing teammates mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Robert Newton, 17, and Vin cent Williams, 16, were pro nounced dead at a local hospital. Officials said Bruce Chapman, 16, and Alfonso Black, 16, were in critical condition. A fifth boy, Eugene Rose, 16, was in fair con dition. Seventeen other players, coaches and spectators were treated for shock and burns and released. Jenkins said, “I saw the flash ing way off in the distance like it was on the Gulf beaches and then boom! The noise brought both my jaws together ... I heard the coach say, ‘Hit the ground’ and then someone yelled ‘Come see about Robert.’ ” Police Sgt. R. G. Hink said the single bolt crashed down at the point where the boys were hud dled. “Those that were hurt the worst were in the huddle,” he said.
