TEXAS AVE. 846-2625 HOUSE DRESS CODE Staubach s retirement thrills Philly fans Eagles look for NFC throne in 1980 United Press International PHILADELPHIA — The long- suffering fans of the Philadelphia Eagles almost threw a parade earlier this year when Roger Staubach, the triggerman at the control of the mighty Dallas Cowboys, announced his retirement. Eagles Coach Dick Vermeil didn’t have to read a newspaper to discover that Staubach had retired. The move raised expectations of the fans so high that, in one summer stretch, Vermeil heard the words “Super Bowl” more often than the Pitt sburgh Steelers did. T went to the shore for five days and I don’t know how many times I TAMU club to host exam on campus The Texas A&M University judo club will have a State Promotional Exam and a technical clinic Saturday on the A&M campus. The exam will be held in room 206 of G. Rollie White Coliseum at 11 a.m. Room 206 is the wrestling room. Periodically, all judo competitors must be evaluated and given new belts. The clinic is designed to show the athletes new styles and tech niques. For further questions, call the in tramural office at 845-7826. heard somebody yell, ‘Hey coach, this is our year,”’ Vermeil recalled. “There’s no question people ex pect us to be better. Heck, I’d be disappointed if we weren’t playoff contenders. But to talk about the Su per Bowl in July is silly. The only time you talk about it is after you’ve won the NFC title game. There’s so many things to be done. We re not even ready for the first game.” Quarterback Ron Jaworski appre ciates the attention the Eagles are getting in the preseason picks but feels it just means the team has to work harder. “This puts us in a position where we can’t lie in the woods anymore,” he said. “There’s going to be a lot more pressure to do well. I think we’re getting more talent on this team but I think the Cowboys still are the team to heat.” That the Eagles are being men tioned to dethrone the Cowboys in the NFC East is a tribute to Ver meil’s work since taking over. Phi ladelphia has made the NFC playoffs the last two years, getting as far as the semifinals in 1979 before suffer ing a bitter 24-17 loss to Tampa Bay. Back-to-back playoff appearances doesn’t mean Vermeil has slacked off on the Eagles. On the contrary, this year’s preseason camp is being run as hard as in previous years. “I expect us to improve,” he said. “But we can do better and still not win as many games. We don’t have the patent on improving. Everybody is trying to get better and this year the division race will be very tight.” \ USED | GOLD 1WANTE D!
