The Raiders were 8-5-1 last year with from four to six rookies in the starting lineup and their quarterback, Cotton Davidson, sidelined for the season with a shoulder injury. He’s back and so is Tom Flores, who filled in. Rookies signed include Rodger Bird, Kentucky halfback, who will be shifted to defense along with Joe Labruzzo, the LSU ball carrier, and Pete Banaszak, of Miami U., who will he a running back with Clem Daniels, who rushed for 884 yards last year. Art Powell, who has caught snore TD passes than anyone in AFL history, and flanker Fred Biletnikoff will be the pass catchers as well as tight end Billy Cannon. Defensively, the Raiders have John Williamson as top linebacker, and such front men as Ben Davidson and Ike Lassiter, Who weigh in at 265 and 270.

The Tribe dropped a double-

header to Tulsa Sunday night

by scores of 5-2 and 3-2 and fell to five and one-half games behind the Oilers for the divi- • sion lead. Phoenix strengthened its hold on second place by beating Oklahoma City.

The Indians battled Tulsa for the lead through June and into July, but late in the month both teams began slumping. The Tribe has taken the worst of it, losing 23 of its last 26 games.

The last-ditch homestand starts with a four-game set with the Oilers, but even if Indianapolis takes them all, they would still trail Tulsa by a game and a half. The season officially ends on Labor Day, with a pair against Oklahoma City ending a six-game series.

Andretti, the defending champion, tightened the race Saturday wtih his 30-second victory over Johncock In a 200-mile race at the Wisconsin State Fairgrounds here. His fifth victory in the USAC big-car circuit this season pushed his point total to 2,040. Johncock, who has yet to win a race, had 2,090.

Andretti started Saturday’s race on the pole and led the first three laps before Johncock took over on the fourth. Andretti regained the lead on the 14th and held it until the 76th when Johncock again took over. The defending champ took over for good on the 107th lap but Johncock remained in close contention although he ran out of fuel at the end and had to coast across the finish line.

Joe Leonard of San Jose, Calif., finished third with Jim McElreath of Arlington, Tex., fourth and Billy Foster of Victoria, B. C., fifth.

like to see executive producer Fred Freed and his harddigging crew do the next blockbuster special on just one of the areas touched on Thursday night—the infiltration of crime into legitimate businesses and unions. This is more than basic stuff, much more, and requires a Lincoln Steffens. Thusday night’s program wae quite good on its level, and its pessimistic conclusions about the contemporary atmosphere and crime were justified, if lacking in originality. There were notable talks with officials and newsmen, and there were scintillating film clips, but best of all there were some human—■ and therefore incredible-inter-views with citizens who had, for instance, run into personal conflict with syndicate hoods and/or political payoff. A muscled-out bookie and a former police chief gave fascinating detail. Remarkably, there was no segment about the glorifying of crime by television programs and movies, but after all there was only three-and-a-half hours. In case any innocents doubted it, the program did make its point about crime being organized. And some of the interviews such as top citizens in an Ohio city differing over the status of bookie and numbers joints—■ may shake things up a little in a few towns. NBC-TV noted, by the way, that crime not only pays, but is the biggest business in the United States.
