If Charles Dickens happened
to be chronicling next Saturday’s
meeting in Austin between the
No. 3 Texas Longhorns and the
slumping SMU Mustangs, he
would in all likelihood label it —
"The Tale of Two Quarterbacks.”
First there is Donnie Little,
the somewhat maligned Texas
signal caller. Before the season
started the feeling around the
league was that if the Longhorns
were going to win they were
going to have to do so in spite of
Little.
When last seen, of course. Lit
tle was directing a fourth quarter
Texas rally against Oklahoma to
keep the Longhorns unbeaten
and right in the middle of the race
for the national championship.
Texas, which was idle last Satur
day, is a good bet to move up to
the No. 2 spot this week since
second-ranked USC was dead
locked by Oregon.
Then we have SMU quarter
back Mike Ford, returning to ac
tion this season after missing 1979
because of a knee injury.
Ford led the nation in total
offense two years ago and he was a
popular pre-season pick for at
least all-conference honors this
year. It just hasn’t worked out.
After winning its first four
games, SMU has lost its last two
by a total of six points to Baylor
and Houston. The 13-11 setback
against the Cougars last Saturday
in Texas Stadium was a direct re
sult of four interceptions thrown
by Ford, including one that killed
the Mustangs’ last good chance to
win the game.
When SMU coach Ron Meyer
was asked about Ford following
the game, he was ready.
"Obviously it was not a great
Rifle team places
second in match
ching Ford during the game in
favor of freshman Lance
Mcllhenny. But then he said:
‘1 didn’t want to do something
after the game in the gloom of the
locker room. And I’m not saying
we are going to do this (change
quarterbacks) either. But it was
not a good performance. We
couldn’t give the defense a rest
and we couldn’t get good field
position. We only had one and a
half good drives all day. ”
Texas will return to the spot
light next weekend after having
the 13th-ranked Baylor Bears hog
it last Saturday.
The unbeaten Bears, off to
their best start in 27 years, will go
after victory No. 7 next Saturday
against winless TCU in Fort
Worth. Baylor is coming off a 46-7
smashing of Texas A&M while
TCU lost for the sixth time this
year —- a 23-17 disappointment
against Tulsa.
Arkansas, somewhat a forgot
ten team despite its 4-1 record,
will be in the Astrodome against
Houston, which stayed in the
SWC race with its win over SMU.
The Cougars were quarter-
backed by Audrey McMillian, a
freshman who had taken only four
snaps from center before going
out and calmly running the Hous
ton attack against the Mustangs.
Houston dominated the game
and only four fumbles — one of
them by Terald Clark on the
SMU goal line — kept the score
from being more onesided.
In the other SWC game next
weekend, the Rice Owls will visit
Texas A&M. Rice was a 10-3 loser
in the rain against Texas Tech,
Led by the keen eye of Mike Win-
zeler, the Texas A&M University
rifle team took second place in last
weekend’s Sam Houston State In
vitational Rifle Match in Huntsville.
The Aggies garnered 4,262 points
out of a possible 4,800 to finish
second to champions TCU, who
scored 4,372.
Texas was third with 4,240 points.
The event attracted 10 schools, in
cluding the University of Texas-
Arlington, Houston and Prairie View
A&M.
Winzeler won the all-around indi
vidual title by taking the high kneel
ing and high standing categories. In
the prone shooting event, TCU’s
Kim Lewis won with a 396 sere out of
a possible 400.
In the high kneeling category,
Winzeler scored 384 out of 400, and
in the standing position, he scored a
358.
The four-man Aggie team and
their individual scores: Mike Win
zeler, 1134 out of 1200; Glenn Park,
1070; Thad Everhart, 1078; and
Greg White, 980.
Texas A&M next travels to Ft.
Worth Nov. 9 for the TCU-
sponsored Triple Crown Invitational
Rifle Match.

PHILADELPHIA — The Phi
ladelphia Eagles reported to pre
season camp back in late July and
immediately Dick Vermeil let them
know how much they should be look
ing forward to Oct. 19.
“We started talking about our
game against Dallas the first night
the players were in camp,” the
Eagles’ coach said Monday while re
viewing his team’s 17-10 victory over
the Cowboys. “It was our first team
meeting and we were talking about
our in-season goals.
“This was one of our two inseason
goals, beating Dallas at home. It’s
one of the three things we haven’t
done in our five-year program.”
The victory, the Eagles’ first over
Dallas in Philadelphia since 1974,
came on a 15-yard scoring pass from
Ron Jaworski to Charlie Smith with
4:27 to play. It enabled Philadelphia
to take sole possession of first place
in the NFC East with a 6-1 record.
Vermeil praised the defensive
efforts of both teams. The game was
tied at 10-all for nearly 30 minutes
before the winning touchdown. The
Cowboys turned the ball over five
times and the Eagles had four tur
novers.
“They have a super defensive foot
ball team,” he said. “They present a
lot of quickness on their defensive
line. Randy White is about as quick a
defensive lineman as you’ll ever see.
“The fact we shut them off on de
fense is a credit to our players and
defensive coaches. We played a hel
luva game against a team that scored
59 points the week before, and that’s
not too bad. ”
The Eagles’ winning score was set
up when middle guard Charlie John
son intercepted an attempted screen
pass by Danny White at the Dallas
20. Philadelphia punched it in three
plays later.
“The touchdown Ron threw is a
pass not many quarterbacks can
throw. He stuck it in there. If you’re
going to win a football game like that,
someone has to come up with the big
plays. It’s a tribute to Ron Jaworski
and the progress he’s made at quar
terback. ’
The Cowboys drove to the Eagles
8 in the closing moments but rookie
cornerback Roynell Young 1
away a fourth-down pass fron,i
to Tony Hill, who compel
Young interfered with him
“It wasn’t a fluke win
said. “We fumbled a sna^ on 1
goal, missed afield goal and fnj
down there on the (Dallas jl
beat a fine Dallas Cowboys; 74 N<
team. j)' 1 ’
“We wouldn’t want to pi- 'l'' ^ a 9 eS
best-of-seven, but we or.,
play them twice. WeknowdJL
tough the next time (Dec. 21 ij
las) but we’ll be all right baniJ
juries. We’ll be ready to play
“I’m excited as hell aboutle
Dallas. They’re the best defa
team we’ve played against. I|
believe we can play betit,
offense. But it was a big thrill!
those son-of-a-guns here, an
thrill to do it for the fans.”
