Ft. Wayne North's move to No. 2 spot sets up key 5A clash

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Fort Wayne North has climbed to N 0.2 in The Associated Press poll going into the final week of the regular season. North will go against top-ranked Penn in the first round of the Class 5A playoffs. North’s Redskins, who play Class 3A’s top-ranked Fort Wayne Dwenger Friday, took over the second spot in 5A this week from Columbus East, which lost to Jeffersonville and fell to ninth. Jeffersonville, meanwhile, climbed three spots to third in the next-

NFLPA comes up with new plan

ROSEMONT, 111. (AP) - For the second week in a row, the striking NFL players union has come up with a plan that may avert mass defections. But once again, the owners may reject the plan, setting up a third week of games played by replacement players and those who choose to cross the picket line. “No,” Jack Donlan, executive director of the NFL Management Council replied early today when asked if he thought the council’s executive committee would approve the proposal when it met this afternoon in New York. The new plan emerged from a sixhour meeting Monday of the 28 player representatives. The players would agree to return while a federal mediator tried to > resolve the dispute for six weeks. If that failed, it would then go to bindingarbitration. “We think this is a fair way to end the dispute,” said Gene Upshaw, executive director of the NFL Players Association, who announced the new plan. But the owners want no part of general arbitration, although it’s possible they might be willing to submit such economic issues to an .arbitrator. “I’ve told Gene many times that we won’t go to arbitration and I don’t think we’ll do it this time,” Donlan said. Tex Schramm, president of the Dallas Cowboys, a key member of the Management Council’s , Executive Committee, also doubted the proposal would be approved. “We’re not going to put the future of the NFL in the hands of an arbitrator,” he said. If the owners do reject the players’ proposal which also demanded

Polls in scoreboard to-last weekly poll by the AP’s statewide board of sports writers and broadcasters. Penn remained No.l for the fifth straight week. The Kingsmen received 13 of 18 first-place votes and 339 of a possible 360 rating points. North did not have any votes for No.l but totaled 284 points. Jeffersonville had two first-place votes and 261 points.

that the 1982 contract be honored, that striking players remain on the roster, and player reps and alternates be protected the question is how many players will cross the picket line? Last week, there were 37 defections, fewer than expected after a Monday meeting of player reps at the same O’Hare Airport hotel in which the players seemed to back off their demand for free agency. That led to six days of negotiations that broke off Sunday with free agency still a major obstacle to settlement of the three-week walkout. Monday’s meeting took place in the face of reports that the 37 defections of last week might triple or

Hogeboom out for at least a week INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Quarterback Gary Hogeboom, the Indianapolis Colts’ only nonstriking starter, suffered a broken rib and punctured lung in Sunday’s victory over the New York Jets and will be out at least a week, Coach Ron Meyer said Monday. It is the third major injury for the 8-year NFL veteran since he was traded to Indianapolis from Dallas 18 months ago. “He will definitely be out this weekend,” said Meyer, who announced backup Blair Kiel would start on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Kiel left his striking teammates and rejoined the Colts last week, playing briefly in the fourth quarter of the 6-0 victory over the Jets.

Crown Point and Indianapolis Ben Davis remained fourth and fifth, respectively, followed by Bloomington South, up one spot to sixth; Evansville Central, up three places to seventh, and Warren Central, up one spot to eighth. Elkhart Central, which lost to Penn last week, fell two spots to a lOth-place tie with Fort Wayne Snider. Snider, ranked No.l early in the season, dropped out of the Top 10 with losses to Fort Wayne North and Dwenger but rejoined the poll this week.

quadruple this week, particularly on teams such as the Washington Redskins, Chicago Bears, New York Giants and Cleveland Browns, who so far have remained solidly on strike. So far, 133 of the 1,585 players under union jurisdiction have returned to work. In announcing the new plan, Upshaw raised the possibility that rejection by the owners would mean a season-long strike. “I would say if the owners decline this, then we’re out for the duration, out for the year,” he said. But rejection today also would raise the possibility of mass defections by the reporting date Wednesday as players face the prospect of losing their fourth paycheck of the season one quarter of their yearly salary. Among those expected to join replacement players was last season’s league MVP, Lawrence Taylor of the Giants. The New York Times, quoting a source close to the All-Pro linebacker, reported today that Taylor would return to the Giants on Wednesday. The newspaper said it could not reach Taylor for confirmation, but quoted his Houstonbased agent, Gary Kovacs, as saying there was a “strong chance” his client would cross the picket line in time to play and be paid for this week. The owners, meanwhile, are feeling their own pressure. While attendance was up from last week’s first strike games, including 61,230 Monday night at Mile High Stadium, where Denver beat the Los Angeles Raiders 30-14, television ratings continued to decline.

Frontier again was picked third, while South Putnam, North Vermillion, Springs Valley, Tecumseh and Bremen rose one spot apiece to fourth, fifth, seventh, eighth and ninth, respectively.
