lams blast faltering Cowboys 29-10
|NjkHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Jim Ev-
slaying in just his fourth pro
completed 14 of 25 passes for
|rds and a touchdown Sunday
It to lead the Los Angeles Rams
29-10 victory over the slumping
ias Cowboys.
he game was marked by Dallas
ch Tom Landry’s being escorted
ie dressing room by security offi-
who said they were taking the
Tre as a precaution after they
pceived telephone threats on
Idry’s life.
Slit, after remaining off the field
abrief time in the fourth quarter,
in decided to return and was
the sidelines for the remainder of
Ine.
|dry, the only coach the team
has had in 27 years, returned to the
field wearing what appeared to be a
protective vest underneath his
sweater.
The Rams, 10-4, could clinch
their second consecutive NFC West
title with a victory over Miami next
Sunday.
The Cowboys, losers of three
straight and five of their last six, fell
to 7-7 and saw their faint hopes for
the playoffs grow even slimmer.
Everett helped stake the Rams to a
20-10 halftime lead, connecting on
10 of 18 throws for 182 yards, in
cluding a 22-yard touchdown pass to
Henry Ellard.
The rookie quarterback out of
Purdue also marched the Rams 82
yards in the closing moments of the
first half in a drive that was capped
by Mike Lansford’s 27-yard field
goal with eight seconds remaining.
The Rams took a 7-0 lead midway
through the first quarter when cor-
nerback LeRoy Irvin intercepted a
pass by Steve Pelluer and ran 50
yards for a touchdown.
The Cowboys tied it later in the
quarter on Timmy Newsome’s 5-
yard scoring run.
Lansford put Los Angeles up 10-7
with a 37-yard field goal early in the
second quarter, then the Cowboys’
Rafael Septien knotted the game
again with a 48-yarder, his longest of
the season.
Everett threw the scoring pass to
Ellard 4:53 before halftime, then
guided the Rams down to Lansford’s
field goal in the closing seconds of
the half.
The Rams padded their lead to
22-10 in the third quarter, when de
fensive end Gary Jeter sacked Pel
luer in the Cowboys’ end zone. A 41-
yard touchdown run by Barry Red
den in the fourth quarter capped the
Rams’ scoring.
Eric Dickerson gained 106 yards
on 28 carries to run his 1986 rushing
total to 1,629 yards. While that keeps
him far ahead in the league rushing
derby this season, it leaves him 163
yards behind his 14-game total of
1,792 in 1984, when he set the NFL
rushing mark of 2,105 yards.
uts leads San Diego past Houston
iAN DIEGO (AP) — Quarterback
BFouts became the third quar-
llk in NFL history to pass for
J) yards in his career, and the
i Diego Chargers recorded their
stshutout in six years in a 27-0 vic-
I^Sunday over the Oilers.
|he 14-year veteran went past the
J)-yard mark with a 22-yard
Hetion to Trumaine Johnson
{gin the third period and left the
me after the Chargers’ final score
|way through the final period.
Fouts completed 21 of 30 passes
ti25u yards and a touchdown Sun-
ly to run his yardage total to
po.
Fran Tarkenton is the all-time
King yardage leader with 47,003
and John Unitas is second with
40,239.
San Diego running back Gary An
derson, who earlier was at the receiv
ing end of a scoring pass from Fouts,
also threw a touchdown pass to close
out the scoring in a flourish. He
threw a 4-yard scoring pass to tight
end Kellen Winslow on a halfback
option with 8:25 left to play.
The Chargers’ final scoring drive
was set up when Houston quar
terback Oliver Luck was intercepted
a second time and San Diego de
fensive back returned the ball 30
yards to the Oiler 49.
San Diego defenders recorded six
quarterback sacks and held the Oil
ers to 134 yards in total offense in
registering their first shutout since a
35-0 victory over New Orleans on
Dec. 9, 1979.
It was the seventh time in their
last eight games that the Chargers
held an opponent to less than 300
yards in total offense.
San Diego scored two second-
quarter touchdowns within 20 sec
onds of each other off of Houston
turnovers and added a field goal to
grab a 17-0 halftime lead.
San Diego defensive back Jeff
Dale’s interception of a Luck pass
and 24-yard return gave the Charg
ers the ball at the Houston 23.
Two running plays advanced the
ball to the Houston 1 before fullback
Tim Spencer bolted over the goal
line for the game’s first score with
1:39 elapsed in the second period.
On the ensuing kickoff, which was
short, the ball was mishandled by
Houston reserve defensive end
Lynn Madsen with San Diego line
backer Angelo Snipes recovering at
the Houston 31.
San Diego immediately built its
lead to 14-0. Fouts threw 31 yards to
Anderson for a touchdown on the
first play after the fumble by Mad
sen.
Benirschke added a 20-yard field
goal for San Diego with 48 seconds
remaining in the first half. His sec
ond field goal, a 35-yarder, gave the
Chargers a 20-0 lead early in the
third period.

made it inside the Downtown Ath
letic Club. So did his 23-year-old
son, Vinny, the No. l-ranked Uni
versity of Miami’s record-setting
quarterback and winner of the 52nd
annual Heisman Trophy.
“We dreamed it together, we did
it together and I’m proud to say we
won it together,” Vinny Testaverde
said. He was standing at a battery of
microphones in a roomful of media
but, he was talking to his father.
Vinny Testaverde, the 6-foot-5 se
nior who led the nation in passing
efficiency, won the Heisman by
1,541 points over Temple running
back Paul Palmer, the country’s top
rusher.
The only greater margin was the
1,750 points by which Southern Cal
tailback OJ. Simpson defeated Pur
due halfback Leroy Keyes in 1968.

rii® 1 ’’ Hickey, although disappointed with the loss,
iridab’Hleased with her team’s progress after losing
Igames in last weekend’s Southern Invitatio-
, Aurnament in Atlanta.
“We played well,” Hickey said. “At times we
very good. We did some nice things out
Icut here 1
there. But we can’t play in spurts against teams
like that.”
Young also was pleased with Saturday’s per
formance, even though the Aggies fell to 2-3.
“Last weekend we couldn’t do anything right,”
the 5-4 senior said. “We showed a lot of team
work and we played hard, it just hasn’t fallen in
to place yet.”
The Aggies advanced to Saturday’s
championship game by defeating Mississippi Col
lege 81-63 on Friday. In Saturday’s consolation
game, however, Mississippi bounced back to de
feat Lamar 89-65 and also placed two players,
Norah McDonagh and Linda Davis, on the all
tourney team.
Rounding out the six-player all-tournament
team was Roper, Lamar’s Jennifer Murphy and
Nebraska’s Ivy and Stephens.
