Glanville mourns
Oiler misfortunes
HOUSTON (AP) — Coach Jerry
Glanville took a figurative midsea
son look in the mirror at his Hous
ton Oilers Monday and decided the
reflection was distorted.
“We’re not showing the reflection
of what we really are,” Glanville said,
reviewing Houston’s seven-game los
ing streak and 1-7 record. “Each
player is just about two inches away.
If we multiply that by 45 and the
coaches, it’s going to make a big dif
ference.”
The Oilers emerged from Glan-
ville’s preseason program and com
piled a 4-0 preseason record and
won their season opener against
Green Bay.
Glanville, starting his first season
as head coach, became the “man in
black,” on the sidelines.
But after eight games, the Oilers
are showing a different image.
The Oilers’ defense has ranked
among the leaders in the NFL all
season, but the offense has fizzled
with quarterback Warren Moon tak
ing the bruises and boos.
Moon was sacked by the Los An
geles Raiders six times Sunday dur
ing a 28-17 loss, threw four intercep
tions and had eight passes tipped by
charging linemen.
In eight games. Moon has been
sacked 26 times and thrown 17 inter
ceptions, despite completing 52 per
cent of his passes.
Two weeks ago, linebacker Robert
Lyles returned a fumble 93 yards for
a touchdown in the final two min
utes against Cincinnati.
It was just the kind of lift the Oil
ers needed to win a game and re
verse their fortunes. Instead, the
Bengals scored in less than a minute
and won the game 31-28.
Against the Raiders, the Oilers
were penalized 11 times for 80 yards
compared with only three infrac
tions for 15 yards against Los An
geles.
“The only one called for jamming
the face mask was us,” Glanville said.
While many teams at midseason
are trying to build on the first half,
Glanville says nothing of that.
“We’ve got to forget what’s hap
pened until now and go play the sec
ond half of the season,” he said.
Rookie receiver Ernest Givins was
Houston’s leading rusher against the
Raiders, gaining 43 yards on one
carry, an end around for a touch
down.
To establish their running or
passing game, the Oilers must get
improved protection from the offen
sive line.
“We didn’t block anybody on Sun
day,” Glanville said. “You’ve got to
be able to run the football, but it
would have taken drano for our
backs to run through those holes.”
Walker awaits noisy greeting in New Jersey

i IRVING (AP) — Herschel Walker
figures he’ll be in for a hostile home
coming in New Jersey on Sunday.
■I Walker starred for the New Jersey
Generals of the USFL before signing
with the NFL Dallas Cowboys this
summer. He’s to go against the New
York Giants for the first time in The
Meadowlands, where he played for
the Generals.
In a 37-6 victory over the St. Louis
Cardinals on Sunday, Walker had
his first 100-yard rushing day.
Walker, subbing for an injured
Tom Dorsett, rushed for 120 yards
and scored two touchdowns.
Walker said he looked forward to
the NFC showdown with the Giants.
“It will be tough to go back and
play for the fans I care a great deal
for,” Walker said. “It’s going to be a
very tough game.
“You’ve heard about the 12th
man, well, the New York fans are the
loudest in the world. I still have a
house in New York and a lot of
friends there. It’s going to be excit
ing,” he said.
Walker scored on touchdown
runs of 19 and 4 yards as Dallas, 6-2,
defeated St. Louis, 1-7, for the sec
ond time this season. The Cowboys
routed them 31-7 Sept. 29 in St.
Louis.
Quarterback Danny White started
his first game in a month and threw
touchdown passes of 36 yards to
rookie Mike Sherrard and 20 yards
to Tony Hill.
White played only the first half.
Dallas Coach Tom Landry decided
to let Whit^ rest a pulled thigh mus
cle that has given the 34-year-old,
11-year veteran trouble most of the
year.
“Danny was about 90 per cent,”
Landry said. “I didn’t decide until
right before the game to play him af
ter talking with the doctors.
“I decided to take a chance and
give him some playing time. I didn’t
plan on him playing more than a
half at that time,” he said.
Dallas not only didn’t need White,
who suffered a lacerated chin, but
they trounced the Cardinals without
the services of Dorsett.
Dorsett decided not to play be
cause of a bruised knee.
White said he never asked Landry
to come out of the game.
“There’s no asking Coach Landry
anything,” White said. “If it had
been up to me, I probably would
have kept playing. My leg feels pre
tty good, but a little stiff.”
The Cowboys downed the Giants
31-28 in the season opener.
finds ‘icy 1 reception in Italian debut
ROME (AP) — Welcome to Italy,
George Gervin and Bob McAdoo.
The former National Basketball
Asso< iation stars got a rude jolt Sun-
dayjnight in Gervin’s debut in the
Italian professional league.
With 24 seconds to play in over
time, and Gervin’s Banco Di Roma
team trailing McAdoo’s Tracer of
Milan by seven points, the fans at the
Paleur pelted the court with coins
and other debris.
As the players covered their heads
with towels and took refuge on the
glass-enclosed sideline benches, the
referees decided to suspend the
game and declared Tracer a 104-97
winner.
Neither of the ex-NBA stars was
hit, but a Milan player and team offi
cial were struck by coins.
Both teams left the court running
through a glass-covered runway to
the locker rooms.
“I was scared for my life,” said
Gervin, who spent most of his 14
years in the NBA with the San Anto
nio Spurs. “I was on the floor and
put a towel on my head. It was dan
gerous. I hope they don’t do that
anymore.
“I guess it shows the fans are
really into the game and wanted us
to win,” the “Iceman” said. “They
got upset by some of the refs calls
and just reacted.”
U P
did not live up to the sensational bil
ling given it by the Italian media.
Gervin was nowhere near the
form that Ted him to win the NBA
scoring title four times and make the
league All-Star team five times. He
hit 6-for-20 from the field and fin
ished with 14 points.
McAdoo, a three-time NBA scor
ing champion with Buffalo, fouled
out after scoring 12 points.
