HAWKS,
HIT THE SKIDS

Terrace Timbermen had the weekend off,
but they still got some help in the Pacific
North West Fiockey League standings.

‘the Timbermen gained on league-leading
Privre Rupert Kings and opened some
daylight on the Kitimat Winter Hawks.

In second-place in the six-leam circuit,
Terrace saw Houston Huskies hand Prince
Rupert only their second defeat of the season
by a 9-4 score Sunday. Prince Rupert had
defeated Burns Lake 9-2 Saturday night.

Kitimat, meanwhile, suffered back-to-back
losses, going down 97 to Burns Lake, after
taking a 7-2 licking from Houston Saturday.

In the only other league game on the
weekend, Vanderhoof dumped Smithers 9-3

PHILADELPHIA (AP)
— Fire melts ice. Rocks
can destroy the most
sophisticated computer,
Emotion, when it reaches a
swell, can drown the lof-
ties? schemes and
executions of man.

So it was that chemistry
decided the National
Football League's National
Conference championship
Sunday and sent
Philadelphia Eagles into
their first Super Bowl.

The Eagles were so in-
flated with burning desire
that if you stuck them with
4 pin they could have ex-
pladed. Gr, loosed from
their moorings, they were
bound to soar off to the
moon.

They took the celestial

trip.

They beat the over-
confident Dallas Cowboys
20-7, The score does not
accuralely connote the
fullness of the rout of the

proud Cowboys, looking
toward their sixth Super
Bow! appearance and
possibly their third title.
The result almost
became obvious when the

‘two teams came onto the

field — the Eagles leaping
and yelling, the Cowboys
reserved and businesslike,
similar to executives
waiting for the 8:05 into the
city.

The difference in the two
teams was reflected also in
a study of the rival
coaches.

There was Tom Landry.
completing his 2ist year-as
head coach of the Dallas
franchise — austere, im-
placable, bundled in a fur-
collared brown coat and fur
hat with muffs over his
ears.

Until Sunday, hardly
anyone had seen Landry on
the sidelines without a
jacket and tie. He goes

Plunkett right

SAN DIEGO (AP) — It
was, for the most part,
defence thal got Jim
Plunkett's Qakland
Raiders as far as the
National Football League's
American Conference
championship game.

So perhaps it was fitting
that Plunkett took the
oppertunity Sunday to say
to the defence: ‘'Thanks,
guys. Take a break." And
for a moment it seemed
they relaxed too much
against San Diego
Chargers.

“Our offence did the job
in the first half and gave us
a nice cushion,” linebacker
Ted Hendricks said after
the Raiders blew out to a
9-7 lead and held on for a
34-27 win and the right to
face Philadelphia Eagles in
the Super Bowl at New
Orleans on Jan. 25.

The Raiders’ 21-point
burst in the first quarter
tied the record for an AFC
title game, matching what
San Diego did against
Boston Patriots in the 1963
American Football League
title game.

Plunkett threw touch-
down passes covering 65
yards to Raymond Chester

and 2] yards to Kenny King
and ran five yards himself
for another TD. :

The first pass went to
King. It travelled five
yards to the Oakland 40,
bounced off King’s hands to
Chester 10 yards away at
midfield and he carried it
the rest of the way to the
end zone.

Chargers quarterback
Dan Fouts’s first pass was
no less electrifying — 55
yards to Ron Smith to the
Oakland 23. Four plays
later the ball was on the 14.
Then Lester Hayes, who in-
lercepied 13 regular-
season passes and four in
hwo playoff games, got
No.5 in the postseason.

End of Chargers’ threat
No.1.

No.2 took two plays —
Fouts’s 12-yard pass to
Charlie Joiner to the
Oakland 48 and a bomb to
Joiner in the end zene.

if Fouts could throw for

48 yards, so could Plunkett. -

He did, to Cliff Branch
from the Oakland 15. Four
plays later Plunkett was in
the end zone.

With 1:35 to go in the first
quarter, the Raiders
scored on a pass to King.

formal, They've never seen
him throw a fit of anger or
bark angrily at one of his

players.
Across the field was Dick
Yermeil, bare-headed,

wearing a short green
jacket and white sho¢s,
fresh and boyish looking
for 45 years. Pulled ont of
college coaching ranks
(UCLA) to take over the
Noundering Philadelphia
team five years ago, he
hasn't let the systemized
pros dull his rah-rah spirit.

He moved up and down
the sidelines, giving or-
ders, yelling en-
couragement and
sometimes jeading cheers.

When it was over, Ver-
meil cried.

“We weren't perfect, but
as units — the offensive
line, the defence, the of-
fence, the specialty teams
— they played to their
optimum.”

who had beaten Ray
Preston easiky.

It went to 28-7 when, afier
Hendricks recovered Mike
Thomas's fumble, Mark
van Eeghen picked up
three of his game-high 85
yards for a TD.

Fouts found Joiner again
on an eight-yard TD pass
just before halftime. Then
Rolf Benirschke kicked a
26-yard field goal and
Chuck Muncie ran six
yards to score in the third
quarter, cutting the
Raiders’ lead to 28-24.

a @-yarder with 6:52 lo

didn't get another chance.

Raiders started on their.

“We knew what we had
to do, just get a few first
downs at least, so Ray Guy

The 24-year-old
downhiller had his
suspicions conlirmed

Sunday night when x-rays
at St. Paul's Hospital
showed torn ligaments in
his left knee, ending his
hopes of winning the World
Cup this vear.

The Calgary skier was on
the last stretch of his run
when he caught the edge of
his left ski and feil.
Traveling at about 100
kilometres an hour, Read
tumbled four limes and
crashed through the last
gate.

He was examined by Dr.
Pat McConkey, an or-
thopedic surgeon who
specializes in knee injuries
and has ‘reated several
members of B.C. Lions of
the Canadian Football
League,

Read's father, Dr. John
Read, head of University of
Calgary medical scheol.
said he was encouraged by
‘the injury because it didn't
involved cartilage.

He said his son would un-
dergo “fairly routine”
surgery Monday night and
fly home to Calgary.after a
or five-day
recuperation.

Read, who wiil be laid up
for about three months,
said in an interview he will
fikely resume his studies in
second-year economics al
University of Calgary,
combining school with re-
habilitation.

“Irs in my best interest
to make the most of my
lime and that’s going 10

The accident was the
second major disap-
pointment in a year for
Read who, as Canada’s top
hope for a gold medal in the
1990 Olympic dawnhiil at
Lake Placid, \.¥., fell near
the top of the course.

Read said he is buoyed
by team-mate Steve
Podborski, the Toronto
native who won the race in
which Read crashed — his
second consecutive victors
after knee surgery last
May.

Although he won't be
there to give Podborski
incentive, Read picked him

downhill crown.

He also said they would
have finished 1-2 Saturday
