QUINN NAMED COACH
PHILADELPHIA (UPI) —
Kevin Quinn, a 1961 graduate of
St. Joseph's college, was
appointed track coach of his
Alma Mater Thursday.
Oakland Raids NFL,
Roman Gabriel
By GORDON SAKAMOTO
UPI Sports Writer
OAKLAND, Calif. (UPI) —
The two professional football
leagues—the established Nation
al and the upstart American—
were primed today for a
possible court battle for the
services of quarterback Roman
Gabriel.
The first round was fired
Thursday, innocently enough,
when the Los Angeles Rams
announced the signing of
Gabriel to his fifth contract
with the NFL entry. The
release originally said the
signing was for the 1966 season.
Later, the AFL’s Oakland
team, reported the signing of
the former North Carolina
State flash to a four-year
contract starting in 1967.
Los Angeles President and
General Manager Daniel F.
Reeves initially declined com
ment on the Oakland signing
except to say that Gabriel had
signed for the 1966 season with
an option for the following
season, the year the quarter
back would have to report to
the Raiders.
Reeves later amended the
statement and said Gabriel had
signed with the Rams for two
years with an option for 1968.
In Oakland, however, Oak
land General Manager Gordon
Stirling said, “Gabriel signed
the agreement (with the
Raiders) on Monday, May 23.
in Oakland. We negotiated the
agreement in good faith and
consider it binding.”
When told Gabriel had signed
a contract with the Rams
earlier in the day, Stirling said,
"if that is the case, Gabriel has
violated our agreement. We do
not know for sure that he has
signed (with the Rams),
however.'"
Asked If the Raiders would
go to court if Gabriel is
prevented by the NFL from
playing with Oakland in 1967,
he said, “if it is the only
recourse we have, yes.”
Gabriel, who lives in Los
Angeles, was not available for
comment.
League officials declined com
ment but a NFL spokesman in
New York said he had no
knowledge of Gabriel’s double
signing. He added, however,
that any NFL player signing a
legal and binding 1966 contract
could not play out his option
prior to the 1967 season.

Johnny Roland
To Play In

ATLANTA, Ga. — Missouri’s
Johnny Roland, who will play
for the West in the Coaches All
America Game, is a defensive
back with an offensive reputa
tion.
For example, he scored three
times in the Kansas game last
year, and totaled 178 yards In
kickoff and punt returns.
As a sophomore he ran for 830
yards and ranked among the
nation’s top ten rushers as a
rookie, scoring 78 points, but
was switched to defense be
cause of his excellent all-around
ability.

League, made virtually every
top collegiat eall-American team
