FRIENDLY SERVICE Landry says Cowboys will stay clear of hand signals United Press International DALLAS — It was probably just coincidence, but the Dallas Cowboys returned to the win col umn in the same game that coach Tom Landry chose to temporarily abandon the highly publicized system of hand signals that had been used during the exhibition campaign and the first six games of the regular season. Landry said Tuesday that he was not ditching the hand signals. But he did not use them Sunday against Los Angeles and it became clear during a discussion Tuesday that he feels more comfortable shuttling plays in with his tight ends. “We still think they can be an asset to flash plays in, especially in tight situations,” Landry said. “But we will continue to operate with tight ends because we think it is more flexible that way. Actually, the signals work fine. There was no problem at all with signals.” Landry indicated that when the plays were being signaled in from the sidelines, it was obvious to the opposition that any substitutions being made were for the specific purpose of running a certain type of formation. Now there will be the old- fashioned guessing game of whether the substitute is just car rying a play or if he is an integral part of the upcoming formation. The coach said the change was not made because he thought any one had stolen the signals. “Obviously there is always that possibility,” said Landry. “Any body can break a code if they want to take the time.
