SAN DIEGO — The San Diego
Chargers are 4-5 and virtually out of'
the playoff race, but Coach Don
Coryell is adamant over not sacrific
ing the season for next year.
Absolutely not, Coryell said Tues
day, when asked if their 24-0 loss to
Seattle the night before was the last
gasp of the 1984 Chargers. “All we
are trying to do is win.”
Coryell said injuries finally caught
up with his team. There was no Wes
Chandler lined up at wide receiver
and Kellen Winslow at tight end.

HOWARD HILL
(Reprint From Eagle Oct. 21,84)
For Sheriff: Howard Hill
Howard Hill’s strong background in both police
administration and training gives him the edge in the
Brazos County Sheriff s race this year.
Both Hill and his opponent have impressive law
enforcement credentials. But Hill’s clear
understanding of the importance of the administrative
aspects of the job, along with his specific plans for the
department if elected, suggest that he would be the
more effective sheriff for Brazos County.
Hill has done his homework - he understands the
importance of strong visible leadership, the difficulties
which will accompany the opening of the new jail, and
the need to upgrade the public’s image of the
department.
Howard Hill will bring to the sheriffs office a new
emphasis on continuing education and a renewed sense
of professionalism.
ceiver Bobby Duckworth was shaken
U P- .
Said Mathison: “I was hoping he
(quarterback Dan Pouts) might try to
go to me just to see if I could catch
it.”
The weakened offense and a
tough Seahawks defense combined
for the first shutout of the Chargers
since Oct. 7, 1979 when the Broncos
beat San Diego 7-0.
“Every coach, and I am sure every
player is embarrassed with the poor
showing last night on national tele
vision,” Coryell said in opening the
inquest into Monday’s loss.
“It goes to show that good players
help. You’re not going to score with
out the Winslows and Chandlers and
people of that caliber. We just have
to glue everything together.”
Coryell credited Seattle’s defense
with taking the Chargers out of the
game.
“Some people don’t think you
make sacks with a three-man line,
but they do,” he said.
So furious was the Seattle rush
that Coryell had Pouts throw less to
reduce the chances that he would
join Winslow, Chandler and the rest
of the casualties.
“We would much rather pass, but
we were afraid we’d have Dan on the
shelf,” Coryell said. “They would
just pin their ears back and come.”

DALLAS — Dallas coach Tom
Landry Tuesday named Danny
White to start at quarterback Sunday
against the New York Giants and in
dicated rookie Eugene Lockhart
would see more action at middle
linebacker in place of the belea
guered Bob Breunig.
White got his first start of the year
last week, replacing Gary Hoge-
boom, and helped the Cowboys coast
to a 22-3 decision over the Indianap
olis Colts.
In the first meeting of the Cow
boys and Giants this year, Hoge-
boom was sacked three times by
Lawrence Taylor. He fumbled dur
ing one of the tackles and Andy
Headen returned the ball 82 yards
for a touchdown.
“White will start because of his
performance in the (Indianapolis)
game,” said Landry. “But I’m going
to use the quarterbacks as I’ve used
the rest of the team. We will be sub
stituting from time to time. It’s im
portant we use all the talent we have.
“We will be doing the same thing
with Doug Donley and Mike Renfro
(at wide receiver), Ron Springs and
Timmy Newsome (at fullback) and
we will probably be using Lockhart
in place of Bob some at the middle
linebacker spot.”

discussion in as low key a manner as
possible because the Lockhart-Breu

most as much attention as the Hoge-

A month ago Breunig suffered
lower back spasms that hospitalized
him for the better part of a week. He
tjuickly returned to the starting
lineup, however, and although his

The Chargers have to retrench
now, but the coach said rebuilding is
a job best left for training camp.

“I think some of the younger guys
did very well,” Joiner said after the
game. “We keep saying we have to
rebound. We have to keep saying it
until we do rebound."
The Most Qualified Man
A quality player who is physically
ready to play, but not mentally, is
running back Chuck Muncie. Mun-
cie has been suspended because of
his drug dependency. His future is
up to Commissioner Pete Rozelle.

only 27 saves during his seven-year
