The playoffs
It’s Redskins vs. Dolphins in Super Bowl!
STUDENT BOOK

United Press International
The Washington Redskins
and the Miami Dolphins, both
linn
victors in their semifinal playoff
games, will face each other in
Super Bowl XVII on Sunday.
On the tube, with all that mud
and neither team being able to
score until the third quarter, it
might have looked like a yawner.
Utterly boring. But that wasn’t
actually the case among the Dol
phins and Jets.
The two teams, who had
fought each other in the news
papers all week, continued the
verbal battle on the field. But it
was Miami’s A. J. Duhe who let
his actions speak louder than
any words.
Duhe intercepted three
Richard Todd passes, retunring
one for the Dolphins’ first score,
to lead Miami into the promised
land with a 14-0 victory.
The Cowboys lost their third
consecutive NFC championship
game on the road, this time to
the Redskins, who used Dallas’
turnovers and John Riggins to
win, 31-17.
In the AFC game, after a rela
tively uneventful first half,
Todd attempted to throw a
four-yard pass to fullback Mike
Augustyniak early in the third
quarter.
Duhe was beaten on the play,
but Todd threw the ball behind
Augustyniak and it bounced off
his hands. Duhe intercepted on
the Jets’ 48-yard line for his first
interception of the game. Seven
plays later Woody Bennett
scored up the middle of the Jets’
defense to give Miami a 7-0 lead.
Later, with the Jets resting on
their own 41-yard line, Todd
tried to find Augustyniak again.
Duhe again intercepted, but this
time the Dolphins could not
score and were forced to punt.
Then, early in the fourth
quarter, Todd threw to running
back Bruce Harper. Duhe inter
cepted again, and this time ran
35 yards for a touchdown.
“It was a poor play on my part
as a defensive end,” Duhe, who
had moved up into the end posi
tion to help the pass rush, said.
“I was rushing as a defensive
end trying to get upfield on
(offensive tackle) Marvin
Powell. It was something I’d
been trying to do all day, and I
wasn’t having any success. Then
I saw Harper come out of the
backfield so I put my hands up
to make Todd throw over me. I
think he saw me, but he wanted
to get the ball over me. He
didn’t.”
Duhe’s run-back was the
longest play of the game.
Todd tied an AFC champion
ship game record by throwing
five interceptions. Duhe, who
had intercepted only one pass all
season before this game, set an
AFC championship game re
cord with his three intercep
tions.
Todd said after the game that
he had two things to say.
“They played better than us,”
he began, “and we didn’t play
well at all. And if somebody else
has to go to the Super Bowl, I’m
glad it’s them.”
In the other playoff game.
Cowboy quarterback Danny
White turned the reins over to
second-string backup Gary
Hogeboom because of a first-
quarter injury, and Hogeboom
threw two interceptions that led
to Washington touchdowns.
Hogeboom was 14 of 29 for
162 yards and two touchdowns.
Over 55,000 fans packed RFK
Stadium in Washington, D.C. to
witness the ’Skins beat the hated
Cowboys, and it was mistakes on
the.Pokes’ part that did them in.
The two interceptions, cou
pled with a Redskin recovery of
a Rod Hill fumbled punt, gave
Washington all the breaks it
needed to put the game away.
Hill’s second quarter-fumble
gave the Redskins the ball at the
Dallas 11-yard line, and four
plays later Riggins ran it in from
the one to give Washington a 14-
3 lead.
Hogeboom said the blame re
sted with him.
“The interceptions were my
fault,” Hogeboom said. “On the
first one, he (linebacker Mel
Kaufman) made a great catch. I
didn’t see him. On the other
one, I had to get rid of the ball
because the guy (Dexter Man-
ley) was almost right on top of
me. Tony (Dorsett) was open,
but there was a Washington
player behind him. I was afraid
if I overthrew the ball, then it
might be intercepted. Then it
got tipped and intercepted, any
way. It was that kind of day.”
So it’s the Redskins and the
Dolphins in Super Bowl XVII,
and what at one time appeared
to be a season that would be im
possible to save is now in the
clear. The players strike, which
wiped out 57 days of the regular
season, made the Super Bowl
lead-in party a somewhat sub
dued affair.
For Washington and Miami
fans, however, settling the strike
and getting on with the season
was probably the best thing that
could have happened, at least
now that both teams made it to
the Super Bowl.
But for the coaches and play
ers, Super Bowl Sunday is still a
day of work. Washington coach
Joe Gibbs said Miami is a tough
opponent. “They have a well-
balanced team,” Gibbs said. “It
will take an excellent defense to
win They are talented and they
have an excellent offensive
scheme. They are well-coached
and have a toughness about
them that makes them hard to
beat.”
For Gibbs it was work as usual.
But the Redskins’ Manley had
other thoughts.

First, Nautilus must be worked in a prescribed order to rewi v, lPP™ 0
benefit. The person exercising should always work from the larger® 1 |P <)rts
groups down to the smaller muscle groups. This is why skippingams^
in line (if it is being used) must be avoided.
Second, Nautilus machines were designed to allow 95% of the h 1 - ;
be exercised in approximately 20 minutes. Nautilus machines areiri it;
have never been intended for use as Multi-set machines. As youb iy
