Trick-or- treating! Harmless pranks! All the random activities generally associated with the absolutely greatest holiday in all of October (except Columbus Day). Of course, sports personalities like to enjoy themselves just as much as normal people. So I thought you might be interested in hearing what some of them might be seen doing for entertainment this holiday season. George Steinbrenner is having a big bash over at his place, and anyone who knows how to say “Yes sir” is invited. The person picked by George as having the best costume will be hired as his next manager. Steinbrenner himself will be dressed as Attila the Hun, a favorite historical character of George’s. The list of celebrities expected to appear includes Red Sox Manager Joe Morgan (dressed as the Boston Strangler), Jack Clark (the invisible man), and Billy Martin (as Whitey Herzog). Mike Tyson, with the holiday season coinciding happily with the loss of his marriage, is naturally holding a party of his own. He’ll be dressed as his soon-to-be-former mother-in-law — the only costume he could think of scarier than he is. Robin Givens is counter-partying. She has retracted a previous statement and announced that a $20 entry fee will not, after all, be required at the door. She doesn’t want to give the impression that all she wants out of life is money. Oh yes, she will be dressing up as Glinda, the good witch of the North. Appropriate, she thought. The two parties may wind up merging, however, as Tyson is planning to egg and wrap the Givens estate sometime during the wee hours of tomorrow morning. If the world is lucky, the two will manage to avoid each other. The NFL will have its own little party, which promises to be a real wing-dinger. Pete Rozelle (in costume as Pete I Jeberroth) will chair, as usual. Hammons Sports Editor Tom Landry has said he will be there. Word has it he will be dressed as Rodney Dangerficld. His date, of course, will be Steve Pelluer. The world’s next Gary Hogeboom is expected to dress as Roger Staubach. Hershel Walker is expected to make an appearance, too — dressed as Rudolph Nureyev. Count on William Perry being there — it’s a party, isn’t it? The Fridge will be dressed as Richard Simmons, mainly to impress Mike Ditka, another probable in the lineup. Ditka will dress as Buddy Ryan — Landry’s second choice. John Madden will be there if there’s any Miller Lite or endorsement contracts to be found. He’ll come dressed as an airplane. This just in: Oiler Head Coach Jerry Glanvillc is not going to use his tickets, but he has arranged for someone in an Elvis Presley outfit to pick them up at the door. Jackie Sherrill is expected to show up sometime tonight as well. The A&M head coach had no comment on the matter, nor would he comment on his recent purchase of a Pope outfit. The story is riling Southwest Conference officials because it would mean Sherrill missing the big SWC shindig that’s going down at conference HQ. That makes David McWilliams the big enchilada at the party. The UT coach will be dressed as Darrell Royal, of course. He’s bringing KentHackemai;; the entire defensive backfield (dressed, respecii,;;, as a mountain and a sieve — no costumesrqimsj, either case).

Cards come back to win ^ 0 ,f dl n ndl Cotton now as Cowboys drop to 2-6 with Ricewii J Associated Press IRVING (AP) — A 42-yard pass from Neil Lomax to wide receiver Ernie Jones set up Earl Ferrell’s one-yard touchdown plunge with 50 seconds to play Sunday as the Phoenix Cardinals came from be hind to defeat the Dallas Cowboys 16- 10. Phoenix, breaking a 2-game losing streak, improved to 5-4 for the season. Dallas, off to its worst start in a quarter- century, fell to 2-7. Ferrell also had a 14-yard touchdown pass from Lomax and a 47-yard run that set up a field goal. Lomax, scrambling near midfield, lo cated Jones all alone, crossing over the middle at the Dallas 35. Jones bounced off Dallas safety Michael Downs at the 25 and darted to the 3-yard line before Everson Walls shoved him out of bound- s.Ferrell scored two plays later. Phoenix fell behind 10-0 in the third quarter, but Ferrell’s 47-yard run set up A1 Del Greco’s 32-yard field goal with Hill rebuts critics; Oilers crush Skins HOUSTON (AP) — Houston’s Drew Hill, criticized last week for a key dropped pass, caught touchdowns passes of 22, 33 and 1 1 yards from Warren Moon on Sunday night to lead the Oilers to a 41-17 victory over the Washington Redskins. The Oilers’ defense recovered five fumbles and had one interception. Defensive end Ray Childress, for merly of Texas A&M, recovered three of the fumbles, including two by Redskins quarterback Doug Williams. Four of the turnovers set up Houston touchdowns. The Oilers, coming off a 44-21 loss to Cincinnati, improved their record to 6-3 and set up a Nov. 7 Monday night show down with Cleveland, which beat Cin cinnati 23-16 on Sunday. The three teams are within one game of each other in the AFC Central. The loss snapped a three-game win ning streak for the Redskins, 5-4. Hill finished with nine catches for 148 yards and the nine-year veteran moved into third place on the Oilers’ all-time re ceiving list with 214 receptions. Hill dropped a pass in the end zone last week against Cincinnati and two plays before his first touchdown on Sun day, a pass glanced off his fingertips in the end zone. Hill already was over the 100-yard mark in receiving at halftime, and his touchdown catches helped stake the Oil ers to a 24-3 lead after two quarters. The Oilers scored first after Williams fumbled and Childress recovered at the Redskins 25 to set up Hill’s 22-yard scoring catch. Chip Lohmiller kicked a 46-yard field goal in the second quarter for the Redskins. But the Oilers scored 17 straight points on Hill’s 33-yard catch, a three- yard run by Moon and Tony Zendejas’ 41-yard field goal. Williams rallied the Redskins with a 30-yard fourth-down pass to Kelvin Bry ant to the Houston 1 that set up a touch down dive by Timmy Smith in the third quarter to make it 24-10. But Moon and Hill combined again for an 11-yard touchdown after Oilers nose tackle Doug Smith had returned an interception 20 yards to the Redskins 24. Childress’ third fumble recovery came at the Washington 16 and on the first play from scrimmage Allen Pinkett ran for a touchdown with 5:36 left to play. 2:38 left in the period. Ferrell took a 14-yard pass from Lo max to tie the score with 7:53 left in the game. After a scoreless first half, Dallas took a 3-0 lead in the third quarter on Roger Ruzek’s 39-yard field goal. Their next possession, the Cowboys went 80 yards in four plays. Herschel Walker’s 27-yard run. his second-long est of the season, put Dallas near mid- field. Two plays later, Steve Pelluer — hurrying to avoid a safety blitz —- hit wide receiver Ray Alexander between two falling defenders for a 50-yard touchdown pass. Phoenix comcrback Cedric Mack set up the Cardinals’ winning eight-play, 61-yard touchdown drive by outlcaping Cowboys wide receiver Kelvin Martin for an interception off Pelluer at the Car dinal 30 and 9-yard return with 3:47 re maining. Lomax completed 13 of 32 passes for 175 yards with no interceptions, al though he was sacked four times for 40 yards in losses. Pelluer completed 9 of 31 for 132 yards and was sacked four times for 29 yards in losses. Ferrell gained 110 yards in 19 carries for Phoenix and also had four receptions for 51 yards. Walker had 87 yards in 17 carries for Dallas. Phoenix mounted the only serious scoring threat of the first half. Lomax completed passes of 9 yards to Jones and 14 yards to tight end Jay Novacek as the Cardinals moved to the Dallas 19. On fourth-and-seven from the 16, Phoenix set up for a 33-yard field goal try. But Lomax, holding for Del Greco, couldn’t handle Scott Dill’s low snap and was tackled at the 24 by Cowboys cor- nerback Robert Williams. Midway through the second quarter, from the Dallas 44, Lomax threw a bomb to wide receiver Roy Green, who had gotten behind Williams downfield. But Williams recovered to make a leaping deflection at the 15, saving an apparent touchdown.
