Cowboys down
LA. Rams 20-17
United Press International
I ANAHEIM, Calif. — Gary Hoge-
booin turned in a team-record per
formance in his first NFL start Mon
day night, completing 33 passes for
343 yards, and Tony Dorsett over
came his own four-fumble perfor
mance by scoring on a 7-yard run
with 3:56 left to play that lifted the
Dallas Cowboys to a 20-13 victory
over the Los Angeles Rams in their
season-opener.
I The Rams forced the first turn
over of the game and wasted no time
in cashing it in for a touchdown.
1 Hogeboom dropped back to pass
and was crunched by blitzing line
backer George Andrews and lost the
ball. Veteran Jack Youngblood
scooped it up and ran it back nine
yards to the Dallas two. And on the
next play, Dickerson broke around
left end and vaulted over a pile of
defenders into the end zone, giving
Los Angeles a 7-0 lead at 11:59 of
the opening quarter.
ROn the Cowboys’ next possession,
Green showed why the Rams were
willing to part with their first and
fifth-round draft picks to get him in
the trade with the Chiefs. He inter-
cipted a Hogeboom sideline pass
and returned it 23 yards to the Dal
las 44 and eight plays later, Mike
Lansford kicked a 31-yard field goal
to boost the Rams’lead to 10-0 at
5:25 of the quarter.
■ The Rams’ tough secondary came
up with the ball again its next time
on the field when Nolan Cromwell _
pounded Dorsett after a pass recep
tion, forcing a fumble. Eric Harris
recovered for Los Angeles at the
Cowboys’ 25, and Lansford built the
Los Angeles lead to 13-0 with a 36-
yard field goal with 2:28 left in the
quarter.
Hogeboom almost brought Dallas
back on his next attempt, moving the
Cowboys to the Rams’ five with a
pair of long passes. But on first
down, Dorsett nad the ball stripped
out of his hands and Cromwell re
covered for the Rams at the three.
But this time, the Rams gdve the
ball back when Vince Ferragamo
threw the ball into the arms of safety
Dextor Clinkscale, who returned it
23 yards to the Dallas 40. Six passes
later, Doug Cosbie made a leaping
catch of a 19-yard Hogeboom pass in
the end zone, pulling Dallas within
13-7 with 5:51 left in the half.
Hogeboom picked up in the sec
ond half where he had left off in the
second quarter, completing four
passes that raised his game total to
291 yards and driving the Cowboys
to the Rams’ 14. But the drive stalled
there and Rafael Septien kicked a
31-yard field goal at 8:59 that cut
Los Angeles’ lead to 13-10.
The teams traded turnovers it the
close of the third quarter and start of
the fourth, with Dallas losing the ball
on Dorsett’s fourth fumble and get
ting it back on Mike Hegman’s inter
ception of a Ferragamo pass. Septien
then tied the score 13-13 with a 52-
yard field goal that dropped over
the crossbar by mere inenes.

Navratilova, Evert Lloyd survive U.S. Open threats
United Press International
1 NEW YORK — Martina Navrati
lova and Chris Evert Lloyd dropped
a few hints Monday that they weren’t
qljite invincible, although both
fought their way into the quarterfi
nals of the U.S. Open.
I Navratilova, the defending cham
pion, managed an early service
break in each set and then held on
for a 6-4, 6-4 victory over No. 15
seed Barbara Potter, while Evert
Lloyd dropped her first three games
before overtaking Bonnie Gadusek
6-4, 6-0.
Navratilova, in beating the power-
hitting Potter for the 14th consec
utive time, stretched her winning
streak to 52 matches, only losing five
times in her last 240 contests.
No. 3 seed Hana Mandlikova had
an even more nervous trip into the
uarterfinals, rallying from a 2-4
eficit in the second set to defeat
Lori McNeil 3-6, 6-4, 6-2. McNeil, a
20-year-old from Houston, is ranked
only 111th in the world.
“Sometimes you have to be lucky,”
Mandlikova said. “I made some
good returns, she missed some easy
shots and I was able to come back.”
However, No. 9 seed Lisa Bonder
wasn’t as fortunate, bowing to He
lena Sukova of Czechoslovakia 4-6,
7-5, 6-4 in a two-hour match that
featured 15 service breaks. Sukova’s
reward is a quarterfinal date with
Navratilova.
In sharp contrast to the problems
endured by some of her friends, No.
4 seed Pam Shriver didn’t have to lift
a racket, winning her fourth-round
match when Susan Mascarin was
forced to default with a sprained
right ankle.
No. 2 seed Ivan Lendl, No. 5
Andres Gomez and No. 15 Pat Cash
all enjoyed relatively comfortable af
ternoons to reach the men’s quar
terfinals. Lendl turned back No. 14
