MARVIN HAGLER: Still World Middleweight Champion

College football

Irish and Lions are playing for bowl bid

STATE COUJEGE, Pa. (AP) Penn State center Nick Haden may be playing hurt, but he’s not looking for any break against Notre Dame. Haden has watched films of Notre Dame and gets the impression the Irish have big people in the defensive line. “That means we’ll have to be at our best to take on strong players. We’ll have to be aggresive, play mistake free. We have to remember they are Notre Dame and so they’re good players,” he said before a practice session for Saturday’s football game. Haden is having problems

Only 111 stands between Illini and roses

By JOE MOOSHIL AP Sports Writer It’s wrapup time in the Big Ten football race and fifthranked Illinois should do it Saturday with ribbons, bows and a rose here and there. The Illini need only a victory over invading Indiana Saturday to officially clinch the Big Ten championship and Rose Bowl bid. “It all comes down to this week,” said Illini Coach Mike White. “All the talk until now has been just conjecture. I look at this game the same as last year’s game aganst Indiana we had to win it to go to a bowl game.” Illinois will be shooting for a ninth straight victory following an opening loss to Missouri. If successful, it will mark Illinois’ first Rose Bowl trip since 1963. While the Illini are busy putting together their cham-pionship-Rose Bowl package, three other Big Ten powers should add victories Saturday to their respective 7-2 overall records and enhance their chan-

with his shoulder and an elbow. “The strength in my shoulder is low,” said the 248-pound junior from McKees Rock, Pa. “I’m working to get that strength back. “Also, I’ve got a little fluid in an elbow that is inhibiting the snap.” Coach Joe Paterno said the 6foot, 2-inch Haden shouldn’t be playing. “If I had someone to replace him I would keep him out,” Paterno said. “He’s struggling. “That’s the problem. I’ve got several kids playing hurt. And I have to play them, so they don’t get better.” This will be the eighth

Still another game with possible bowl overtones is the Wisconsin at Purdue clash. The Badgers are 5-4 and if they finish the season at 7-4, they might snare a bowl bid. Last season the Big Ten sent

meeting of Penn State and Notre Dame in a series the Irish lead, 4-2-1. Penn State has won the last two. Both teams need this game to remain in contention for a bowl bid. Notre Dame has Air Force ahead, while Penn State plays traditional rival Pitt. Haden is one of those many players over the years switched by Paterno to a new position. He was a backup defensive tackle who was moved to center last season. It was a position he never played before, but Haden is doing a good job, according to assistant coach Dick Anderson. Haden was redshirted and

five teams to various bowls including Wisconsin, which received an invitation to the Independence Bowl with a 6-5 record. Wisconsin Coach Dave McClain said “I don’t think 6-5 will get in this time but if we finish 74, we’ll let the chips fall where they may.” Big Ten Commissioner Wayne Duke is quick to remind that since the Big Ten went to an open bowl policy in 1975, eligible conference teams with

Duran no pushover for Hagler

LAS VEGAS, Nev. (AP) - After 13 grueling rounds, Marvelous Marvin Hagler returned to his corner, feeling pretty good about the way he was handling Roberto Duran’s bid to take away his world middleweight championship. He thought he had been controlling the fight, charging a high price in punishment everytime Duran sought to get inside his eight-inch reach advantage. The title belts Hagler treasures so, seemed safe to him. “I couldn’t see him beating me,” the champion said. It was then that Hagler got some bad news from his handlers, Goody and Pat Petronelli. “My manager and trainer told me, ‘We’ve got to win these last two rounds big,’ ” he said. It was if they had peeked at the scorecards of judges Guy Jutras of Canada, Yusaku Yoshida of Japan and Ove Oveson of Denmark because, after 13 rounds Thursday night, they had Hagler’s crown tipping perilously toward Duran’s corner. Jutras had the fight even, but Yoshida and Oveson each had Duran ahead by one point. So, like a craftsman, Hagler went out and tended to business in the final two rounds, winning them on the cards of all three officials to capture a workmanlike but too-close-for-comfort unanimous decision. Jutras scored it 144-142, Yoshida 146-145 and Oveson 144143. The Associated Press’ card had Hagler in front, 145-142. Duran’s dream of a historymaking fourth championship

worked out at center on the team, impersonating the opposition in practice sessions. “The year I was redshirted I had a chance to learn the technique of playing center, such things as how to take the proper step on blocking assignments. There is a lot of footwork involved in playing center.” He looks upon playing center as a challenge. “I enjoy it. It’s a complicated position. There are things like when the line blocks one way I go in the opposite direction, fill the gap left by a pulling guard. I have to protect the guard’s area,” he said.

7-4 records or better have always received bowl invitations. Michigan and Ohio State are expected to win easily this week before they play each other in their season finale. The winner of that game is expected to receive a major bowl bid which rankles lowa Coach Hayden Fry. “All I know,” said Fry, “is we defeated Ohio State and had a 13-13 tie at Michigan until a 45yard field goal in the last eight seconds.”

was shattered by those vital final six minutes and when it was over, Hagler paid tribute to the man he had defeated. “I’m very proud of myself to beat a man with three world titles,” he said. “He’s a very gutsy warrior. I give him a lot of credit, but give me a lot of credit, too. This man’s a legend.” And for a while, it seemed Duran would add to that legend on a cool November night in the 15,000-seat arena constructed on the tennis courts at Caesars Palace. Duran started smartly, carrying the fight to the champion in the early rounds. He taunted Hagler and stood toe-to-

toe with him, seemingly perfectly happy to slug it out. At one point, Duran almost looked as if he was daring Hagler to hit him. And the champion willingly obliged. In the fifth round, Duran said, he got into trouble. “I hit him on the head and felt pain in my right hand,” the Panamanian said. After the fight, when promoter Bob Arum tried to grasp the hand, Duran winced in pain and offered his left instead. If he was hurting during the fight, though, Duran didn’t show it. There would be no “No mas,” no quitting on this night. He went after Hagler and that
