The Battalion Monday, Oct. 17. 1988
Halloween is fun for the big kids, too
After weeks, months, and (it seems) years of
waiting, the day is finally here: Halloween! 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.

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).
Ken Hatfield is coming as Jackie Sherrill,aisli;

William Perry. Jim Wacker is hacked that the (Xj
shop gave the Sherrill suit to Hatfield andsemfej
of Gerry Faust. He is not expected to appear

expected to dress as Jonas Salk, completewith^
vaccine. Jack Pardee is coming as a good spon
Don’t count on Tommy Lasorda being there li;
throwing his own party over in LA, and Italians
everywhere are invited.
Orel Hershiser will be there of course, coupe
with Lee Majors costume. Fernando Valenzirin;
come as the Pillsbury Doughboy.

and a comedian. Both found their mailboxes
surprisingly empty the last couple of weeks Pits

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

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.
