College Dor sett ready for Steelers United Press International FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — From here on in, it figures to be all downhill, a real breeze for Tony Dorsett. Why? Because the Dallas Cow boys’ star running back has made it through the toughest part of Super Bowl XIII already. He took care of as many of his friends from Pittsburgh as he could with tickets to Sunday’s game and he’s just getting back up on his feet again after being thrown for more than one financial loss along the way. “All my tickets are gone,” Dorsett says without bothering to camouf lage his delight and relief. “They were all gone before I even got down here.’’ x geT-rtfc sfcT some new" UNIVERSITY LUTHERAN CHAPEL <S0A^S Fee “ClK ypAp 315 N.

The more famous he gets in Dallas, the more his friends keep reminding him they knew him when he still was in Pittsburgh. “I kept getting calls from a lotta long-lost friends, and all of‘em were looking for tickets,’ says the Cow boys’ former Heisman Trophy win ner. “What people don’t realize is that each ballplayer has a quota. We each get 30 tickets for the Super Bowl game and we have to pay for them. That s $900. It would he very nice if somone you got the ticket for would give you the $30 you paid for it. Or even offer to pay you. That would be very nice.” Apart from Roberto Clemente, probably no other sports figure in the last 25 years had a greater im pact on the city of Pittsburgh than Tony Dorsett. That includes such personalties as Chuck Noll, Terry Bradshaw, Franco Harris, Bill Mazeroski and Steve Blass, all of whom helped bring an assortment of world championships to the western Pennsylvania metropolis. Dorsett, however, had one di mension none of the others did. He was a local boy. This isn t anything requiring any investigation from Pete Rozelle’s of fice, but Dorsett has been a Pittsburgh Steeler fan as long as he can remember — and still is. “Tve always been a Steeler fan and I’m still a Steeler fan to this day,” he says unabashedly. “I re member them from when I was still a kid, when they had fellows like John Henry Johnson and Dick Hoak, and still played in Forbes Field. At Pitt, where he was everybody’s All-America and became tbe first player in NCAA history to put to gether three 1,500-yard plus sea sons, Dorsett never bothered too much about finesse, being mostly accustomed to sticking the hall under his arm and running with it, he says, like a hat out of hell. says.

Steeler coach Chuck Noll feels his club abides by the rules. Tom Landry of the Dallas Cowboys, Pittsburgh’s opponent in Sunday’s Super Bowl XIII, feels otherwise as do several of his players. The controversy concerns tactics used by Steeler defensive backs when the clubs met in Super Bowl X three years ago. Cowboy receivers accused the Pittsburgh secondary of late hits and unneccesary rough play, and several Dallas players have been openly calling this week for closer officiating Sunday. “In 1975, we didn’t expect the game to be as intimidating as it was,” said Landry. “We didn’t mind the hitting. The only thing we re sented was that there wasn’t a pen alty called. Our receivers couldn’t get downfield. We don t care if it’s tough. We can play tough, too. Just as long as they (referees) call the game. ah Cowboy safety Cliff Harris was outspoken. “They didn’t see a lot of things last time, said Harris. “I hope they' don’t choke again. We play in the boundaries of the rules. Let’s just say they play real close. I just hope the ref watches closely. "Their defense played close to the rules in Super Bowl X. Alot of things that weren’t even judgment calls, the ref didn’t call. We play rough, hut we play within the rules. All I want the officials to do is call a good game. Their defense did a job on our receivers last time and nothing was called. Dallas quarterback Staubach said the tactics us«| Pittsburgh secondary disnii Cowboy offense in their championship meeting.
