NEW. " ORLEANS
(AP) — ‘The telephone
rings incessantly in big
John Madden’s suite at

the Super: Bowl hotel -

“peadquarters. He steps
outof the elevator and Is
immediately swarmed
onby admirers. .

‘He walks. down the
street and truck drivers
yell out of their cabs:
“Hey, John, you.
wrecked any joints
lately?”

Women queue up to
get his autograph.

*T coached football |

for 2 years and even
won (the Super Bowl,”
said the pillowy onetime
coach af. Oakland
Raiders, “and nobody

“Like it? 1 love it. But
it's become
tough. I can't respond to
everybody as I should.”

Madden, who coached
Oakland from 1969
through 1978, will do

CBS radio commentary ©

on the Super Bowl game
Sunday, involving the
Raiders and
Philadelphia Eagles,

In the beer com-
mercial, Madden is
pictured as a_ trigger-
tempered guy who goes
into a ranting tantrum

““T got the image when
I was coaching the
Raiders, 1 would

sometimes get sore and -

yell at. the officials
about something. But
then I'd quickly settle
down.

, "But { got the
reputation of being .a
firebrand? The. TV
people said,"Keep your:
camera on Madden.
He's bound to blow his
stack.’”

Actually Madden is a
big, good-natured bear
of a man who see)
humor ‘in almost ev-
erything — even a bone-
rattling football game in
which ‘his team - gets
most of the rattles.

Madden refuses to fly
