Decatur, Illinois, Sunday, November 14, 1971 DECATUR SUNDAY HERALD AND REVIEW 21 Two New Pro Pickers Crippled Redskins Invade Chicago By the Associated Press Washington's Over The Hill Let me make this clear: This decision is by popular demand. My sons at home delight in outguessing the old man. And my office helpers Joe Cook, Jim Bond and Steve Fox are Gang invades the territory of the Chicago Mob today for a National Football League game. It may go a long way toward confirming or denying the suspicion that the Redskins are eager to see me strike out So, fans, you get not one but three, count 'em, three, sets of predictions. It's bargain in a second half skid.

Manning had to be relieved by Edd Hargett in the 21-21 tie with Oakland. NFL Standings AMERICAN CONFERENCE Eastern Division Off to a 5-0 start under new Coach George Allen, whose Los day. Angeles' teams used to run into difficulty over the second half of the season, the Redskins lost to Kansas City, defeated New By Bob Fallstron Sunday Herald and Review Sports Editor The distress call for pro football guessing help was answered by more than a dozen volunteers. First to check in was Keith Androff, 11, a sixth grade student at South Shores School who is a Kansas City Chiefs fan.

Next was Jibby Florini, longtime Sullivan tavern operator. Jibby's place of business is familiarly known as "Sports Headquarters," quite naturally because Jibby is a sports of all sorts buff. So the youngster and old-timer match predictions today. I figured on checking in on the taxi squad after a 4-9 record last weekend which dropped, the season count to a lowly 59-45 for 56.7 per cent However, in the interest of entertaining the readers, who seem to get quite a chuckle from my guesses, I'll make at least one more stab.

Louis is at San Diego Monday in a game to be televised by WAND at 8 p.m. The Redskins have a 6-1-1 record for a 1-game lead over Dallas in the National Conference East with the teams scheduled to meet head on next Sunday. The Bears are third in the tight NFL Central struggle, behind Minnesota, 6-2-0, and Detroit, 5-2-1. San Francisco leads the NFL West with a 6-2 record to 4-3-1 for Los Angeles and Atlanta. In the American Conference, each division race appears to be down to two teams Miami, 6-1-1, and Baltimore, 6-2, in the East; Cleveland and Pittsburgh, both 44, in the Central, and Oakland, 5-1-2, and Kansas City, 5-2-1, in the West.

PS JOAN WESTON, left, one of America's most popular female athletes, battles the Jolters' Ann Cavello in a Roller Derby matchup. Weston will be here Wednesday with the Pioneers in a game with the Red Devils. Roller Derby's Top Talent Moves East Nicklaus World Cup Leader on 63 By James Bond The San Francisco Bay Bombers Roller Derby dynasty has been sliced to form a new six-team league. The Bay area, center of, Roller Derby activities for the past decade, was stripped of super-star Charlie O'Connell plus every other name performer.

The Chicago-based Central Pioneers, who take on the Southwest Red Devils in a league game at Millikin's Griswold Center Wednesday night, got Ron Robinson, Joan Weston and another husband-wife combo Tony and Carol Roman. Ann Calvello and Margie Laszlo lead the Ohio-based Midwest Jolters. As of Nov. 7, the O'Connell-led Chiefs were pacing the balanced league with a 4-3 record. The Jolters were 6-5, Pioneers 5-5, Red Devils 3-4' and Bombers 0-1.

Robinson, the 32-year-old son of former boxing champion Sugar Ray Robinson, was in Decatur last week along with Weston, who detests being called to promote the new league concept "The area approach will allow more people to see Roller Derby regularly," Robinson said. "There will be a 120-game schedule and no exhibitions. It means the people here will be guaranteed of seeing the best since there's something at stake in every game."

One of those will occur here when Robinson goes against Bob Woodberry, a former Northeast Braves teammate who is captain of the Southwest Red Devils. Woodberry, incidentally, is a scene stealer. In the past, he's been the "villain" who pestered O'Connell until a well-deserved elbow chop put him in his place.

"Things will be different this season," Robinson said. "At least Woodberry will get cheered during his home games." As Robinson pointed out, the San Francisco Bay Bombers used to be the "home" team wherever they played. "There was the Bombers and the rest of the league," Robinson said. "Hopefully, the new league will be balanced enough so that fans will not focus all of their attention on one team." Weston, who has devoted half of her 36 years to the Roller Derby circuit, believes the sport, which was valued at $500 just 11 years ago, is the coming thing. "You couldn't buy Roller Derby for $5 million today," she said.

"And you know why? The women. "Outside of a few tennis players and golfers, where else can the woman athlete go," Weston commented. "Every Sunday you can turn on the television and watch men do everything from play tiddlywinks to mountain climb. The Roller Derby is a refreshing change." The outspoken Weston admitted that the sport does the female skater's social life. "You never know what a date is thinking about you," she said.
