PAGE EIGHTEEN Detroit, NFL Surprise, Gets Baltimore Testing The Detroit Lions have sur- prised the National Football League this year with three straight victories, but the test- ing will be tougher Sunday when they catch the Baltimore Colts. Baltimore has lost one game, and the Lions under rookie. coach Harry Gilmer, hope to keep their unbeaten skein going. The Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants had a Satur- day night game so the field at Metropolitan Stadium could be prepared for the sixth game of the World Series next week be- tween the Dodgers and the Twins. Cleveland and Pittsburgh also played Saturday night. San Francisco-Green Bay and Detroit-Baltimore are Sunday's big ones, pairing off the West- ern Division's leading four clubs. The Packers and Lions are the NFL's only unbeaten teams, at 3-0 while the Colts and 49ers are 2-1. The powerful Packers are fa- vored solidly over San Francis- co and the Colts are expected to overcome the defensively strong Lions. Quarterback Dick Shiner, a second-year man, will be mak- ing the first start of his pro ca- reer when the Redskins meet the Cardinals. He has been giv- en the job due to the ineffectual play of Sonny Jurgensen. The Eagles also will have a reserve quarterback, King Hill, in action against the Cowboys. First-stringer Norm Snead is out with an injured knee. The Bears are at home for the first time this season, after dropping three in a row on the road. One of them was to the Rams two weeks ago, by a 30-28 score. Chicago is favored to even matters Sunday. Oakland end Art Powell, a widely traveled nine-year го at the age of 28, is proving to American Football League rivals that he deserves a little more respect. Powell, who combines a solid 212 pounds with a track sprint- er's speed, wrecked Boston de- fenses by grabbing 11 passes, including two for touchdowns, Friday night as the Raiders handed the hapless Patriots their fifth straight defeat, 24-10. Two other AFL games are scheduled for Sunday, with San Diego at Buffalo, and Kansas City at Denver. New York and Houston are idle. The key game is the meeting between undefeated Buffalo, 4-0, and the Chargers, 3-1. The Bills rule a slight favorite despite the loss of ends Elbert Dubenion and Glenn Bass. San Diego will be bolstered by the return of fullback Keith Lincoln, who missed the Chargers' first four games with a thigh injury. Butts Longs To Be Back ATLANTA, Ga. (NEA) - What ever happened to Wally Butts, long time University of Georgia football boss who was once reputed as the most knowl- edgeable passing mentor in the game? Now a car salesman here, the stubby ex-coach is still awaiting final appeals in his libel suit against a magazine for publish- ing an article which accused him of collaborating against the best interests of his institution's football team. Butts won $3 million in judg- ment in the original trial but the figure was later reduced to $460,000 on appeals. The legal manipulations are still not ironed out. Butts misses the game he has been absent from for three years. "You can't," he says, "shake the nostalgia very easily." Any change will be an improvement. All we do when we change the Volkswagen is to make it work even better. We don't play with the way it looks. So the 1966 VW still looks the same. And there you have the whole Volkswagen point of view: We keep looking for ways to improve it. And then we knock our brains out to make the new pieces fit old VWs, too. All the improvements make a fat book. And every one has made the car a touch better than it was before. This year, the backs of the front seats can be locked so they won't push forward. Engine power's increased for the 4th time. And the windshield has a 3rd defroster (so you'll see where you're going in such a hurry). This system not only makes the VW better all the time, but also makes parts easier to get, me- chanics more skillful and owners always in style. And we can still keep the price of a nice, rea- sonable $1585. Keep the chonge. Clarke County Mtrs. LI. 816344 2220 W.
