Section 4 CNcao Tribune. Thursday. October 24. 1974 1 Fairbairn 's hat trick paces Rangers victory lire defense gets burned by Johnson and Hawaiians th Toronto Maole Leafs Tuesday night Jl NEW YORK tAPl Bill Fairbairn scored three goals and Steve Vickers and Jerry Butler added one apiece Wednesday night, sparking the New York Rangers to a 5-1 National Hockey League victory over the St Louis Blues Wednesday night. Fairbairn's first goal entered the net off St Louis de-fenseman Barclay Plager after 34 seconds of play.

His slap shot from 30 feet bounced off Blues' Goalie Ed -r "It was something we wanted to try last week at Portland, Giitdings said. "You ran practice something like this during the week because of the chance of injuries. So we decided to practice it here. "I know Iww that sounds," he added. "But Jim and his staff practiced some tilings against ua last time." What he is saying is that the Fire had tried to run up the score against his team, and Spavital could only reply: "Every dog has his day." SPAVITAL BLAMED too many dropped passes and the pin-point passing of Johnson for the loss, which tied a WFL record for most points scored by one team.

Memphis got 60 against the Hawaiians on Aug. 21. "They'll Hawaiians never play another game like that again," Spavital said. "His passes were perfect, and our men, Charley Reamon included, couldn't have covered any closer." Interjected Offensive Line Coach Joe Spencer: "The difference was they caught their passes, we dropped ours." UPI TttoMora Summaries hi teoreboari Johnston, hit Plager and went in.

Balmoral Meet at sporTCoIaits park Cicero and S. Laramie Low-Priced- By Leo Zainea THE HAWAIIANS. longer the barefoot, happy iklandrrt Haleloke used to sing about, went after the Chicago Fire with machetes Wednesday night at Soldier Field. Revenge was in their eyes, and they dismembered the Chi-cagoans with all the grace of a cross-eyed butcher. The final score was Hawaiians 60, Fire 17, and it wasnl really that close.

RANDY JOHNSON, another of those National Football League castoffs reaching super stardom at the expense of Chicago, threw for 304 yards and four touchdowns, and if the Hawaiians failed to exhibit a commendable running game, who cares. Next year, if there is one in this Weird Football League, they get Calvin Hill from Dallas and he's no Reggie Sanderson. In tumbling to its eighth straight loss, the Fire took a giant step in clinching a playoff spot, too. Chicago is now 7-10, tied with the Hawaiians for one of those eight magical playoff spots pulled out of the hat by the blond bombshell. Commissioner Gary Davidson.

For Fire Coach Jim Spavital. it was a look into the past that sickened him. Chicago whipped the Hawaiians 53-29 on July 28 in Honolulu, but neither team is the same now. TO RUB IT IN. Hawaiians Coach Mike Giddings ordered an onside kick with a 46-10 lead in the third period and tried to defend it afterward.

Finks discloses 'undisclosed' picks Continued from page one Back Clif Taylor. Holman is out of football after being cut by the Chicago Fire. MOORE STARTED for the Saints only after an injury in their defensive backfield. The Bears have their own sixth and seventh choices, plus seventh-round picks from the St. Louis Cardinals and New York Jets both as a result of the Earl Thomas trade.

Thomas went to the Cardinals for the draft pick, Running Back Clifford McClain and Center Wayne Mulligan. Gibron, who said he wouldn't have made the trade without getting the draft choice, cut McClain and sent Mulligan to the Jets for their seventh-round pick when Mulligan announced he didn't want to play for the Bears. Thomas is starting at wide receiver and is alternating with J. V. Cain as a play messenger for the Cards.

Thomas caught two touchdown passes in the Cards' sixth straight victory Sunday, bringing his season total to 11 receptions for 170 yards and two touchdowns. Mulligan is starting for the Jets. FINKS SAID THE Bears owe their eighth-rounder to Denver for Randy Montgomery, who played as one of the six defensive backs the Bears used against Green Bay Monday night. To make up for that pick, the Bears get New England's eighth for Defensive End Tony McGee, who is not starting and has signed with the Fire for 1975. The Bears have their own ninth, the Rams' 10th for Horton and their own 11th thru 17.

Finks also said the Bears have signed Linebacker Bob Pifferini and that Guard Ernie Janet's "attorney has assured me he is free to sign a Bear contract." Janet was rumored to have signed with the W. F. L. BEAR FACTS Charlie Ford, another Bear Gibron traded in a straight player deal with Philadelphia for Rich Harris, is sitting on the Eagles' bench, and Coach Mike McCormack has been quoted as saying: "We're a little bit disappointed he hasn't accepted the challenge. We run by him and he quits.

One-on-one, he quits. He hasn't shown that competitive edge." Gibron said John Hadl "has got to help" Green Bay. "He's a veteran, but they will have to change their system, too. I don't have any idea what the theory is. You'll never get me to criticize anybody." 1975 BEARS DRAFT 1.
