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.’’

Dorsett was raised in Aliquippa,
Pa., only 14 miles up the road from
Pittsburgh, and he was far and away
the most electrifying runner in the
University of Pittsburgh’s history
before signing with the Cowboys
two years ago. 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.

Defensive tactics question
United Press International
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — Legal or
illegal — that’s the big question
concerning the Pittsburgh Steelers
defensive tactics.
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.
