IRVING — Tony Dorsett has
made it a habit to run forward for
at least 1,000 yards on various
football fields each autumn for the
past decade and tonight at Texas
Stadium he will try to do it again.
Dorsett will be on display along
with the rest of the Dallas Cow
boys as well as the Buffalo Bills in
this week’s Monday night carnival
— one that sees both clubs trying
to keep pace with division rivals
who have already completed their
assignment.
A thunderstorm-bearing cold
front whisked through the area
Sunday night and perhaps the
chilliest conditions of the season
— temperatures somewhere in
the 40s — are expected for the
Bills-Cowboys matchup.
Dorsett goes into tonight’s
game with 962 yards in nine games
— needing just 38 to reach the
1,000-yard plateau and also need
ing 78 yards to retain the No. 1
spot in the NFL’s rushing column.
New Orleans’ George Rogers
led the league after Sunday’s
games with 1,040.
But there is a lot more at stake
than Dorsett’s personal goals. The
team that loses tonight will find
itself in a diminished position as
far as its attempt for a divisional
crown is concerned.
Dallas has won three straight
over tough opposition while the
Bills have won four of their last
five. And one interesting factor
will be how well the Cowboys’ de
fense can slow Buffalo quarterback
joe Ferguson.
Teams have thrown early and
often against Dallas this year,
gaining lots of yardage but also
making the Cowboys the league
leader in interceptios with 23. But
even though the Dallas pass rush
has begun to be more of a factor in
recent weeks, Ferguson has been
uncanny in avoiding quarterback
traps this year. The former Arkan
sas star has been trapped just six
times while throwing 291 passes.

Reaves working for No. |
spot after Oakland win
United Press International
HOUSTON — If John Reaves — the all-America
collegian who turned to drugs — is to have a shot at
duplicating Jim Plunkett’s amazing personal com

“Ken Stabler is still our No. 1 quarterback,’ Biles
said. “If he is 100 percent next week, he’ll start.”
Stabler was sidelined last week with a sore wrist
and missed his first start this year Sunday despite his
condition being upgraded Saturday to probable. In
the first nine games this season he had played incon
sistently as the Oilers won four and lost five.

Reaves was out of football in 1980 after the Minne
sota Vikings cut him in training camp. The Vikings
helped him, however, by paying for his rehabilita
tion from drugs and alcohol in a special clinic.
The news about Biles indecision about next
week s starting quarterback did not deter Reaves
from lobbying for the job.

I.D. Checkers Doing Their Job
Stuart Mitchum
(42) goes up for
a rebound dur
ing the cham
pionship water-
basketball
match. Although
Stuart’s team
lost the cham
pionship, he is
our
McDonald’s®
“Be Our Guest”
winner this
week. Stuart
should pick up
his free meal
card in the In
tramural Office.
Many students needing part-
time jobs turn to I.D. checking.
I.D. checkers are students that
check I.D.’s after 5:00 p.m. dur
ing the week and starting 8:00
a.m. on week-ends. These peo
ple check I.D.’s as you enter G.
Rollie White Coliseum, East Ky
le and DeWare Fieldhouse, or if
you plan to play tennis out at
ennis courts.,
Equipment can also be rented
or checked-out at various loca
tions in the check-out rooms
with current student and recrea
tional I.D.s.
-I.D. checkers say that they
have been getting a lot of hassles
when they try to do their job.
People want to use the facilities
without showing their I.D. They
give all types of excuses and
none are acceptable. Some of the
most frequent ones are:
“I forgot my I.D., but I can
give you my student number.’’
“I’m a faculty/staff member
and I have my staff card. ”
“I’m a former student, I can
show you my ring. ”
“I have a class but I don’t have
my I.D. with me.”
“I just went out a few minutes
ago.”
take a little extra time to make
sure you have your I.D. The In
tramural Office is located in 159
East Kyle where faculty/staff and
spouses can purchase an I.D. for
$2.00. Dependents pay $5.00
per I.D. This pass does not cover
the pool.
The policy says you must have
a current student or recreational
pass to enter the facilities. Fee
slips, drivers’ licenses, and rings
will not be appropriate.
Students, when you leave
your dorm room or apartment,
Take the time to stop by the
Intramural Office and purchase a
Recreational I.D. This will save
you AND the ID Checker a lot of
hassles and embarassment. Re
member, they are only doing
their job.
I.d. checkers most of the time
really enjoy their jobs. They get
to meet a lot of people and make
new friends. “It feels like you are
where the action is.”
