 THE
MANAGEMENT

MURCHISON/SCHRAMM

The scene was the dressing room of the World Champion Dallas
Cowboys just after Super Bowl VI. Chairman of the Boai'd Clint W.
Murchison Jr. was asked to comment on his team's first NFL title.
"This," smiled Murchison, "is the successful culmination of our
12-year plan."
Anyone familiar with the trials and tribulations of the Cowboys
from the winless first season in 1960 to the near misses of the mid
dle and late '60s to this happy January afternoon in 1972 had to
recognize the irony in Murchison's statement.
Prior to Super Bowl VI, perhaps no team had been so near and yet
so far so many times. But Murchison and Texas E. Schramm, the
President and General Manager of the Cowboys, never wavered in
their belief that the big prize eventually would come to Dallas.
Schramm controls the day-to-day operations of the club. Working
closely with him are A1 Ward, Vice President for Administration,
and Gil Brandt, Vice President for Personnel Development.
Brandt is one of the "original Cowboys," and was the team's first
talent scout. Ward joined the organization as public relations director
in 1966 and became assistant general manager the next year. Both
were named vice presidents following the 1970 season.
Schramm holds a BA degree in Joumalism from the University
of Texas, acquired between 1939 and 1947 with time-out for a four-
year hitch in the Air Transport Command where he made Captain.
While still in school, Schramm was a member of the sports staff
of the Austin American Statesman and later sports editor.
In 1947 he joined the Los Angeles Rams as publicity director, and
in a 10-year career there, rose to general manager.
He left the Rams to join Columbia Broadcasting System as Assis
tant Director of Sports in 1957 and was there until summoned by
Murchison and Bedford Wynne to guide the Cowboys.
One of his major assets is to be a sound judge of men. It was
Schramm who brought Pete Rozelle into pro football as publicity
man for the Rams.
Aside fi-om the development of the Cowboys, perhaps his major
achievements have been his work with scouting systems, both with
the Rams and Cowboys, and the merger of the NFL and AFL.
It was Schramm and Lamar Hunt, owTier of the Kansas City
Chiefs, who handled preliminary negotiations for the merger.
 THE
COACH

When the players carried him off the field after Super Bowl VI,
The Great Stone Face broke into a broad ffrin. It was a moment for
which the Dallas Cowboys and their fans had been waiting for 12
long years.
Actually, contrary to what you may have read or heard, it was not
the first Tom Landry smile in history. It only seemed that way to
outside obsei-vers, as season after season the cool, disciplined approach
of the Cowboys coach took his team so close to the summit.
Dick Nolan, the San Francisco 49ei-s coach who was Landi-y's
teammate on the New York Giants and an assistant of his at Dallas,
perhaps put it into pei'spective recently when he described Landry
the player.
"As a defensive back," said Nolan of Landry, "he wasn't that fast,
and you'd look at him and think you could beat him.
"But you'd get there and you'd end up fighting for your doggone
life. He could knock your head off."
So it wasn't Landry the robot who maintained that apparently
unshakeable composure through all those years of disappointment.
It was Landry the competitor. He wouldn't allow himself the luxury
of celebrating until the pinnacle had been reached.
"Even as a player," said Nolan, "he was a very brilliant guy, very
exacting. He always knew exactly what he could do."
Typically, Landi-y has decided the Cowboys will not rest on their
laurels. One Woi-ld Championship is fine. "Two would be that much
better.
"We need to make evei-y game the ultimate of the moment," he said
as he looked ahead to the 1972 season. "You can't keep a team all
stiired up through 14 games plus the playoffs, but we have to recog
nize that the teams we play will make us prove we're World Cham
pions. Every week is Super Bowl week when you play as champion."
It has been a difficult road for Landry and his Cowboys. The fii'st

year, 1960, they did not win a game. They didn't break even until 1965
brought a 7-7 finish. From 1966 through 1971 they Won 63, lost 19
and tied two, but not until Jan. 16, 1972, did they end a season on
a happy note.
Through it all, Landry remained the same.
"I can remember times when Tom would tell me this or that would
happen," said Nolan. "To me, it might not be logical at the time.
But nine times out of 10 it would happen. Sometimes it was almost,
well, spooky."
Lee Roy Jordan was a super player at Alabama. The Cowboys
drafted him No. 1 in 1963, but many predicted he was too small "to
be a middle linebacker in the pros. He is entering his loth season as
a Dallas stai'ter.
"The thing that bothered me was all the stories I had heard about
the pros being so complicated," says Jordan. "I was afraid that I'd
never learn everything a pro linebacker has to know.
"But I found out that Coach Landry is so thorough that my job is
actually easier in the pros."
Tight end Billy Truax joined the Cowboys in 1971 after seven
seasons with the Los Angeles Rams. In his last five years as a
regular with the Rams he caught 174 passes. In '71 with the Cow
boys, playing on a bad leg and alternating with Mike Ditka, Truax
caught 15 passes. And then he made this statement:
"Tom Landry is the greatest man I've ever met. He is undoubtedly
the foremost authority on football. Landry is far and away the best
coach in football today."
Landry's patience is mentioned often by his players, especially
those with small college backgrounds.
"The Cowboys worked with me on and off season," says Jethro
Pugh, an llth-round draft choice from Elizabeth City State in 1965.
"A team couldn't have had more patience."
 "Coach Landry talked with me when I first andved in camp," said
Rayfield Wright of Fort Valley State, a seventh-round selection in
1967. "He told me that I had the ability to play for the Cowboys,
despite the fact I came from a small school. That helped my con
fidence a lot.
"And then, the patience that was shown me made all the difference.
I was always aggressive, but I had a lot to learn."
Says Landry, "We'll never give up on a player until we're con
vinced he can't do the job."
All these Landry qualities came together in 1971 to produce a
champion. And, it was a year in which one of the least publicized
facets of his personality — his sly sense of humor — began to
become more evident.
On the team plane from New York after a late-season victory over
the Giants, Landry was told by reporters that a bomb threat had
been telephoned to the press box during the game. He was asked
what he would have done if the press box had, in fact, gone up in a
puff of smoke.
"We would have had 30 seconds of silent prayer," said Landry.
"And then we would have continued, with enthusiasm."
Landry's Dallas record of 88-72-6 put him 11th on the NFL coaches'
all-time victory list heading into the 1972 season. He was fifth in
victories among active coaches, trailing only Paul Brown (126), Weeb
Ewbank (119), Hank Stram (104) and Don Shula (91).
Tom was bom in Mission, Tex., on Sept. 11, 1924. He was an All-
Regional fullback at Mission High before enrolling at the University
of Texas.
After one semester at Texas, Landry went into the Air Corps and
flew 30 missions over Germany as a B-17 pilot for the Eighth Air
Force.
Following his discharge in November of 1945, Tom returned to
Texas where he earned All-Southwest Conference honors as a junior
and co-captained the Longhoras as a senior. Those Texas teams
defeated Alabama in the 1948 Sugar Bowl and Georgia in the 1949
Orange Bowl.
Landry joined the old New York Yankees of the All-America Con
ference in 1949, moving to the New York Giants in 1950. He was a
mainstay in the Giants' defensive backfield through 1955, the last
two years as a player-coach. He was named to the All-Pro team in
1954.
Retiring as a player following the 1955 season, Tom was the Giants'
defensive coach through 1959. New York Head Coach Jim Lee Howell
called him "the best defensive coach in the business."
Tom, who received an industrial engineering degi-ee from the Uni
versity of Houston in 1952, lived in Houston during the off-season
before joining the Cowboys. He and his wife Alicia have three
children — Tom Jr., 22; Kitty, 19, and Lisa, 14.
Tom devotes much of his spare time to the Fellowship of Christian
Athletes. He is first vice president of the National FCA and serves
as Chairman of the Board of the Dallas FCA chapter. He also is on
the Board of Governors of Highland Park Methodist Church in Dal
las and Dallas Town North YMCA.

PRO: If you were listing- National Football
League players who desei-ve to be classified as
"winners," you would have to include the name
Herb Adderley pretty near the top. In 11 NFL
seasons, Adderley has played in four Super Bowls — more than any
other man. Someone got out an adding machine last winter and de
duced that Herb had collected more than $100,000 in playoff money
since beginning his pro career in 1961. He has come to expect suc
cess. "In the first Super Bowl game (when he was with Green Bay
in 1966) I was nervous," said Herb. "In the second one I relaxed and
picked off a pass. Last year (after joining Dallas in a trade) I was
totally relaxed. This year I was afraid I was too relaxed. I went to
sleep on the bus going out to the stadium." Adderley led the Cowboys
in interceptions in 1971, stealing six enemy passes and moving to
fourth on the list of active NFC interceptors. "If I can see the foot
ball and feel something happening ahead of time," says Herb, "I go
for it." And then, with the ideal attitude for a cornerback, he adds,
"If I miss and the guy gets loose, it's just one of those things."
Adderley doesn't miss often. Bart Stan- called him "the best corner-
back who ever played the game," and Herb works hard to live up to
that evaluation. "Pride in performance," he says, "that's something
I've always had. When people leave the stadium I want them to say
they've just watched one of the best cornerbacks they've ever seen
in their lives."
COLLEGE: An All-Big Ten halfback and tri-captain at Michigan
State in 1960, Herb capped his college career with appearances in the
East-West Shrine, Hula Bowl, All-American and College All-Star
games. He was the Packers' No. 1 draft choice in 1961.
PERSONAL: Herb, his wife Barbara and their daughter Toni
(2/12/68) make their off-season home in Herb's native Philadelphia.

 Lance Alworth " I?
WIDE RECEIVER ARKANSAS 11th YEAR
HT: 6-0 • WT: 180 BORN: 8/3/40 (D-2 FOR '62)

PRO: When Lance Alworth, the leading ac-

tive pass receiver in the National Conference and j
No. 4 in the all-time NFL rankings, joined the vy..
Cowboys prior to the 1971 season he had some
adjustments to make. In nine seasons with the San Diego Chargers
he had averaged more than 50 catches and 1,000 yards a year. He
set records that may never be equalled in becoming an all-time AFL
All-Star. But with the Cowboys, Lance knew some things would be
different. "The Cowboys are not a team where one or two individuals
really count," he said. "I've had a lot of individual things happen to
me, and that's all fine and great. You enjoy that for the recognition.
Still, the fact remains that the name of the game is win." With
Alworth, the Cowboys won their first World Championship. "I hav
en't received near as much double coverage," said Bob Hayes late in
the year. "They have to respect Alworth. He's out there like a mine
ready to go off at any time." While he was settling into the un
familiar role of co-star. Lance began to hone his blocking skills. By
mid-season Tom Landry was calling him "as good a blocker as any
flanker we've had." And on that subject, Alworth summed up the
kind of player he has become. "In San Diego," he says, "I used to
walk around the house mumbling,'Watch it, catch it, tuck it, run it.'
In Dallas, I growl at the cat, make faces in the mirror and kick the
trash can. Blocking is something you have to make yourself do. I'm
not a Mean Joe Greene, but I'm a mean gnat."
COLLEGE: Alworth was an All-America tailback at Arkansas.
A three-time academic Ail-American, he passed up a bonus offer from
the New York Yankees to play football and run track at Arkansas.
PERSONAL: Born in Houston, Lance won 15 letters at Brook-
haven, Miss., High School. He and his wife Marilynn now make their
year-round home in Dallas. Their children are Lance Jr. (2/21/61),
Gregory (9/29/62), Kelly Ann (7/11/63) and Bradley (6/14/66).

KICKER • TEXAS A&M • 10th YEAR ^R
HT: 6-1 . WT: 205 • BORN: 11/7/40 • (FA FOR '63) \ M
PRO: Both the Cowboys and Mike Clark
were having their problems half-way through the
1971 season. Dallas had a 4-3 record and Clark
had just missed field goal attempts of 21, 42 and
29 yards in a 23-19 loss to the Chicago Bears. Coach Tom Landi^
then made some changes, and one of them was benching Clark in
favor of rookie 'Toni Fritsch. Fritsch perfoi-med well in two games,
but suffered an injury and Clark again was called upon. He was up
to the challenge, and his kicking helped the Cowboys to the title. "I
was down mentally for about two days," says Clark. "It was the first
time in nine years anything like that had happened to me. I spent a
lot of time by myself. Then I decided it wasn't the end of the world,
that I had to fight back. I stayed late after practice to prove to
myself I could kick, and then I stopped won-ying about it." Mike is
No. 5 among active NFC scorers.
COLLEGE: Mike had never tried to kick a field goal until he
went to Texas A&M, but became the regular kicker on the freshman
team when the No. 1 man was knocked out breaking up a wedge on
a kickoff.
PERSONAL: Clark's hobby is flying, and he owns his own bi
plane. He's also a member of the Confederate Air Force, a group
made up mostly of men who flew propeller-driven fighters and
bombers in World War II. Mike, his wife Darlene and their two sons,
Michael Kyle (10/13/67) and James Kristopher (10/4/71), live in
Dallas where he is sales manager for All Sport, a distributor of

^ IraflMv PRO: When Larry recovered a Miami fumble

' in the Super Bowl, Cowboy fans felt they were
I j seeing an old, familiar reran. Cole recovered four
fumbles during the regular season to lead the
team, and in four pro seasons he's covered eight enemy bobbles. "He
can make the big play," says Defense Coach Ernie Stautner. "He just
has a nose for the ball, something you can't teach." Cole's biggest
plays have come against the Washin^on Redskins. He's scored thi-ee
touchdowns against them, two on pass interceptions and one on a
fumble recovery. Larry came to the Cowboys as a 16th-round draft
choice in 1968, quickly caught the coaches' attention and became an
"instant starter" when Willie Townes was injured. Cole has been a
regular ever since. "Lari-y wants tendbly to be good," says Tom
Landry, "and he gets the very most out of his ability. He has the
instincts of a defensive lineman."
COLLEGE: Larry was spotted by the Cowboys at the University
of Hawaii, where he transferred after first attending the Air Force
Academy.
 PERSONAL: Lari-y, his wife Linda and their son Michael An
thony (11/3/70) live in Dallas where he is a sales and leasing agent

and my body was just as solid and trim as it was
in the early '60s at Chicago. I wanted to go to
the Super Bowl, win that game and be an integral part in playing the
game. I could care less about being All-Pro. I've been there. The
Super Bowl victory is the reward, not All-Pro. I scored our first
touchdown in pre-se^on and our last touchdown in the Super Bowl.
A great way to begin and end a season." Ditka, alternating on each
play with Billy Truax, caught 30 passes in '71, his biggest production
since 1966. Suddenly a career that was fading is burning brightly

PRO: Edwards plays strongside linebacker
for the Cowboys, battling the opponent's tight
end on most plays. The Dallas coaches say he's
one of the top players at that difficult, unpubli-
cized position "It's phenomenal how steady Dave has been the last
couple of years," says Cowboys Linebacker Coach Jerry Tubbs, "the
way he's done his job week after week. He might not get a lot of
ink, but you ask the tight ends around the leape hp tough he is
and they'll tell you." Baltimore running back Noi-m Bulaich tells of
a collision spearheaded by Edwards: "Dallas has a grpt set of line
backers. I remember running against them p pe gpl line and they
knocked my head down into my stomach, remaps the highest com
pliment paid Edwards comes from Defense Coach Ernie Stautner:
"TW Wst tVvmg you caw say abowt Edwards is that he's a pro. He

RUNNING BACK • OKUHOMA STATE . 7th YEAR
HT: 6-0 • WT: 205 BORN: 7/23/44 (D-5 FOR '68)

PRO; The Cowboys' No. 3 all-time rusher,

Garrison was the team's leading pass receiver in
I 1971. No matter what the situation, he always
seems to find a way to help the Dallas cause.
"Walt Garrison is always reliable," says San Francisco 49ers Coach
Dick Nolan. "He's a 110 per cent player and always will be." Garri
son spent the first three years of his career playing behind Don
Perkins, became the starting fullback in 1969 and gained 818 yards.
Then along came Duane Thomas, and since that time Coach Tom
Landi*y has been juggling Garrison, Thomas and Calvin Hill at the
two running back positions. Walt started the first 11 games in '71
before a deep leg bniise sidelined him against the New York Jets.
Typically, Garrison described the injury with wry humor. "Let's see,"
he said. "If I was standing on a map of the United States, facing
Canada, then it would be on the north side of my east leg." Thomas
and Hill combined for more than 260 yards running and receiving
against the Jets, and scored five touchdowns in a 52-10 victory. "I
noticed the offense was lacking something out there," said Garrison,
who spent the day on the bench. But Walt was ready when Hill was
hurt in the NFC Championship showdown against the 49ers. He

running back Cowboys' Trainer Larry Gardner calls, "the toughest

man I ever saw."
COLLEGE: Walt was a two-time All-Big Eight selection at
Oklahoma State. He played in the East-West and Senior Bowl games,
and signed with the Cowboys when they included a horse trailer as
part of his bonus. "I probably wouldn't be here now if it hadn't been
for that horse trailer," he says.
PERSONAL: A real-life cowboy. Garrison rides the professional
circuit in the off-season as a calf roper and bulldogger. He also
spends much of his time as a working cowboy on his father-in-law's
I'anch near his hometown of Lewisville,_ Tex. Walt, his wife Pam and
their son Phillip Martin (6/5/69) live in Dallas.

PRO: It took Coi-nell Green the basketball
player five seasons to make the NFL Pro Bowl
as a cornerback. It took Cornell Green the corner-
back two seasons to make the Pro Bowl as a ^ ^
^rong safety. Switching an all-star comerback to safety was a move
Tom Landry was able to make when the Cowboys acquired Herb
Adderley prior to the 1970 season. Making an All-America basketball
P's-ysr into a pro football star was something Landry had to do in
the Cowboys' talent-hungry early years. "Basketball was no hin
drance," says Green, who played the game at Utah State. "You come
into the league and everybody has it all to learn anyway, whether
they know it or not." When he moved to strong safety in '70, after
four All-Pro seasons at cornerback, Comell quickly decided he liked
the new position. "I have somebody to talk to now," he said, "the
other safety. Used to be when I played comerback, I only had the
mde receiver to talk to. And sometimes he wouldn't talk to me."
Green firmly established himself in 1971, capping his season with

other facet of Green's value to the Cowboys that is sometimes over-

looked -— his dui'ability. He's never missed a game for Dallas, playing

 fBill Gregory • 77 DEFENSIVE TACKLE • WISCONSIN • 2nd YEAR
HI: 6-5 • WT: 255 • BORN: 2/14/49 • (D-3 FOR 71)
PRO: Coach Tom Landry considered Gregory
a "tremendous addition" to the 1971 Cowboys.
When Jethro Pugh was sidelined with an appen-
- —— dix flareup the night before the Thanksgiving
Day game with the Los Angeles Rams, Gregory stepped in and did
the job in victories over the Rams and Ne\y York «^ts until Pugh
could return. Gregory teams with Tody Smith and Pat Toomay to
give the Cowboys a trio of fine young defensive hne prospects.
COLLEGE: Gregory was Wisconsin's football captain for two
seasons and an All-Big Ten selection in 1970.
PERSONAL: Bill, a native of LeMarque, Tex., now lives in
Dallas with his wife Bonnie.

Cliff Harris • 43
SAFETY OUACHITA 3rd YEAR
-i HT: 6-0 WT: 184 . BORN: 11/12/48 (FA FOR 70)
PRO: The pride of Arkadelphia, Ark., con-
tinued to impress people in 1971, leading the Cow-
boys in kickoff and punt returns and regaining
the starting free safety job he lost the year
before when military duty interiaipted his rookie season. Harris was
the NFL's fourth-leading kickoff returner, and described his haz
ardous job thusly: "I aim at something on the other end of the field
— like a flag or a red cushion in the end zone seats — and set my
course for it. Then I pick a hole, depending on the way my blocks
fall. Of course, the blocking is the main thing. If I don't get it, I'm
easy raw meat." "At safety," says Assistant Coach Bobby Franklin,
"Cliff just has the knack of going for the ball. You can't teach that
to anybody."
COLLEGE: Cliff played at little Ouachita (WASH-e-taw) Baptist
College in Arkadelphia, where the Cowboys spotted him in some
game movies and signed him as a fi'ee agent.
PERSONAL: A native of Fayetteville, Ark., Cliff and his wife
Linda now make their home in Dallas.

 Bob Hayes
WIDE RECEIVER • FLORIDA A&M • 8th YEAR -
HT: 5-11.WT: 185 • BORN: 12/20/42 • (D-7, Future, '63)
PRO: In 1971, Hayes had what has become
a typical season for him. Double-teamed much of
the time, he caught 35 passes for 840 yards (a
24.0 average) and eight touchdowns. Meanwhile,
Staubach was finding his other receivers open and led the
iiiiru passing.

downs, Hayes ranks eighth among active scorers in the NFC. The
only non-kicker ranking above him is teammate Lance Alworth, who
in three more seasons has scored 85 touchdowns. Hayes is the Cow
boys all-time leader in receiving, punt returning and scoring. The
lOirnei Olympic champion, looking" back on the days when he set
records, says, "I'm faster now than I was then (9.1 in
the 100). A sprinter doesn't reach his peak until he's 30." "Our
receiving corps is built primarily around Bob," says Tom Landry. "He
puts a lot of strain on the defense, forcing them to double or adjust
to him. He is the key.' Says Roger Staubach, "The guy is simply
lantastic.
COLLEGE: The 1972 season holds unusual significance for Bob.
Eight years ago this fall he won two gold medals in the Tokyo
Olympics. It was like the whole world was happy I had won," Haves
remembers. It was beautiful. I guarantee you, there's no thrill quite

f Calvin Hil • 35 RUNNING BACK • YALE • 4th YEAR
HT: 6-4 • VYT: 227 • BORN: 1/2/47 • (D-1 FOR '69)
PRO: A knee injury kept Hill out of the
lineup for half the 1971 season, making his sta-
tistical summary quite remarkable — 468 rushing
yards, 19 pass receptions for another 244 yards,
and a total of 11 touchdowns. Calvin hurt the knee against the New
York Giants in the fourth game of the season and didn't return to
the lineup until game No. 12 against the Ne\v York Jets. Off-season
surgery repaired cartilage damage. When Hill is healthy, he is as
dangerous a I'unner as there is in the NFL. After only three seasons
the big Ivy Leaguer ranks fourth among all-time Dallas rushers.
"He keeps driving," says John Zook, the Atlanta defensive end. "You
have to get fierce with him or he'll tear loose." Hill is equally^ dan
gerous as a receiver, according to teammate Chuck Howley. "He's the
most difficult back I've ever had to cover," said the veteran line
backer after a few scrimmages against the Cowboys offense. "He's
traveling a lot faster than he looks — he sort of lazies at you, and
all of a sudden he's on you. He can move." Calvin tied a Dallas rec
ord in the opening game of the '71 _ season when he scored four
touchdowns against Buffalo. "He's so big and fast," said Tom Landi-yi
"sometimes it looks like he's stopped and he'll fall another four or
five yai'ds." A fierce competitor. Hill is noted for his reckless running
style. "I hate to lose," he says. "It kills me. Since I was six years
old I've only been on two teams that didn't win a championship."
COLLEGE: During Hill's three years at Yale, the team posted
4-5, 8-1 and 8-0-1 records as he accounted for more than 2,600 yards
total offense. He also competed in track, long jumping 25-1^2 and
triple jumping 51-514.
PERSONAL: Calvin and his wife Janet, a schoolteacher, live m
Hill's native Baltimoi'e area during the off-season. He works in
Bethlehem Steel's Industrial Relations Department and also devotes
a good deal of time to working with youth. "The superficial attiaction
football players have for young people opens doors for communica
tion," Calvin says. "We hope that when they get to know us better,
they will find different, deeper reasons for admiration."

LINEBACKER • WEST VIRGINIA • 14th YEAR fc
HT: 6-2 • WT: 225 • BORN: 6/28/36 • (D-1 FOR '58) 'g. W il
PRO: The 1971 season was Chuck Howley's
"lucky 13th," as he played on the first World
Championship team of a long and distinguished
career. As usual, he came up \\-ith the big plays ^
in the big games, including a spectacular interception and 41-yard
retum against Miami in the Super Bowl. The year before, in the
16-13 Super Bowl loss to Baltimore, he became the first member of
a losing team to be named the game's Most Valuable Player. "How-
ley seems to be ageless," says Tom Landry. "You would expect him
to fall off because of his age, but he keeps having better and better
years. Chuck intercepted five passes in '71, his second best total
three fumbles for the second year in a row and
sixth Pro Bowl. Quiet and reseiwed off the field, Howley
offers this interesting look at the emotions of a 13-year NFL vet
eran: 'I'm going through now what every old pro does. Most all the
players I came into the league with are gone. I just don't have a lot
youngsters we have now, so I don't socialize,
otj if-
this ^
team. they need
I think meknow
they on the
I'mfield.
a partI feel tremendously
of the a part
team, whether we
socialize or not. I prove it by what I do on the field."
COLLEGE: Howley lettered in football, wrestling, track, swim
ming and gymnastics at West Virginia. He was an All-America cen
ter in 1957 and a three-time All-Southem Conference choice as a
guard, center and linebacker. He ran the 100 in 10.1 and was the
conference one-meter diving champion.
PERSONAL: Chuck, a native of Wheeling, W. Va., lives in Dallas
Nancy and their children Scott (8/16/62) and Robin
(o/li/oo). Howley operates his own dry cleaning center and uniform
rental service.

HT: 6-1 • WT: 221 • BORN: 4/27/41
* I , PRO: "I'm not a mean player," Jordan says,
J "I like to think I'm aggressive. If I take a fair
_ shot at a man it reflects my dedication. I try to
hit him as hard as I can because he would do the
same to me. That's what this game is about — hitting." The veteran
middle linebacker completes a decade in the NFL this year despite
being the smallest man at his position in the league. He makes up
for his size with unrelenting aggressiveness. "If Jordan weighed as
much as Dick Butkus," says Defense Coach Ernie Stautner, "they'd
have to outlaw him from football." Jordan recovered three fumbles in
1971 and intercepted two passes to move into sixth place (ahead of
Linebacker Coach Jerry Tubbs) on the list of all-time Dallas inter
ception leaders.
COLLEGE: Jordan was named the nation's outstanding lineman
his senior year at Alabama, capping his All-America season by mak
ing 31 tackles against Oklahoma in the 1963 Orange Bowl. While
Alabama was preparing for a big game in '62, Coach Bear Bryant
was asked about a flashy running back on the opposing team. "If
he stays in bounds," said Bryant, "Lee Roy will get bim."
PERSONAL: One of seven children. Lee Roy was born in Excel,
Ala., whei'e he starred as a high school fullback. Lee Roy is associated
with Apollo Properties in Dallas. He and his wife, the former Mary
"Biddy" Banks of Tuscaloosa, have two sons — David (12/8/65) and
Patrick Lee (5/23/68).

LINEBACKER • MISSISSIPPI STATE • 4th YEAR

- HT: 6-1 • WT: 225 • BORN: 10/16/45 • (D-6 FOR '68)
PRO: As captain of the Cowboys' special
teams, Dwight Douglas Lewis sets an example
for the members of the squad whose job it is to
set up Dallas kick returns or ruin the other
teams' kick return efforts. "He makes more tough plays on those
 kicking teams than anybody you'll see," says Assistant Coach Bobby
Franklin. "You have to go with abandon on those teams," says Lewis.
"You have to have wild people. I have to admit it scares me a little."
D. D.'s goal, of course, is to become a regular at linebacker for the
Cowboys. He is confident he'll reach that goal. "I just think by stay
ing in Dallas I'll be a starting linebacker on a championship team."
COLLEGE: Twice an All-Southeastern Conference choice, D. D.
was Defensive Player of the Year in the conference and an NEA Ail-
American as a senior. He played in the Senior Bowl, Blue-Gray and
College All-Star games.
PEUSOXAL: Asked if he was named after Generals Eisenhower
and Mac.-^rthur, D. D. replied, "I don't think that's what my mother
had in mind. I had 13 brothers and sisters, and we were running out
of names. It was either Dwight Douglas or go to numbers." D. D.,
his wife Jlargaret and their daughter Christi (10/17/69) lived in
Starkville, Miss., during the past off-season. He's a native of Knox-
ville, Tenn.

Tony Liscio
TACKLE • TULSA • 9th YEAR
HT: 6-5 • WT: 255 • BORN: 7/2/40 • (D-3 FOR '63) ^
PRO: "The whole key to the season was /
Tony Liscio's ability to step in and play the way Wm/
he did," said Tom Landry after Super Bowl Vi.
After eight years with the Cowboys, Liscio went
to San Diego in the spring of '71 as part of the Lance Alworth deal.
San Diego traded him to Miami just before the season started, and
he decided to retire and return to his Dallas home. Nine games into
the season the Cowboys suddenly found themselves without a healthy
left tackle, and Landry put in an emergency call to Liscio. After
three days' practice he started against the Washington Redskins
and was a fixture in the Dallas offensive line the rest of the yeai\
"Funny," says Liscio, "I was listening to the game one week and
playing the next. I had accepted the fact I was out of football. I
had_ become a fan." Back and leg injuries prompted Tony's original
decision to retire, and there was some doubt he would return in '72.
COLLEGE: A three-year regular as an offensive and defensive
tackle at Tulsa, Liscio twice earned All-Missouri Valley Conference
honors and cajitained the football team his senior year.
PERSONAL: Tony, a native of Pittsburgh, lives in Dallas with
his wife Annette and their children Tony II (4/26/64), Michele
(3/8/66) and Michael (9/2/69). He is associated 'with Equitable Real
Estate in Dallas.
 Bob Lilly •
DEFENSIVE TACKLE TEXAS CHRISTIAN • 12th YEAR
HT: 6-5 • WT: 260 BORN: 7/26/39 • (D-1 FOR -61)
PRO: Perhaps the best way to understand
what Lilly means to the Cowboys is to listen to
^ ^ what opponents have to say about him. For in
stance— Baltimore guard Glenn Ressler: "He is
awesome in what he does to people. He is maybe the best tackle who
ever played." Minnesota guard Ed White: "If he has any weaknesses,
I don't know what they are." Miami guard Bob Kuechenberg: "Lilly
is the best. He has exceptional speed and quickness. It's hard to
believe a man that big can be that fast." Tom Landry, a man not
given to idle praise, pulls out all the stops when he talks about Lilly.
"If there's any one person who really exemplifies the Dallas Cow
boys," says Landry, "it's Lilly. He leads us in everything we do.
■There won't be another Bob Lilly in my time. You're obseiwing a
man who will become a legend." An All-Pro seven times and a Pro
Bowler nine times, Lilly has never missed a game for the Cowboys,
playing in 154 in a row. Landry continually refers to Bob's enthusi
asm for the game when asked the secret to the big man's success.
Lilly himself spelled that out pretty well last year when he said,
"I've loved football since I was in the ninth grade, thin, underweight
and uncoordinated. I got beat up pretty good in those days. I loved
it in high school when I wasn't any good. I loved it in college when
I started to make progi-ess. I love the competition and my teammates.
That's what makes the game. People who don't play, don't understand."
COLLEGE: Lilly was an All-American and a two-time All-
Southwest Conference selection at Texas Christian in nearby Fort
Worth.
PERSONAL: Born in Throckmorton, Tex., Bob lived there until
his family moved to Pendleton, Ore., for his senior year in high
school. At Pendleton, Bob made All-State teams in football and
basketball. Active in several Texas business ventures, Lilly lives in
Dallas year-round. His children are Bob Jr. (7/19/62), Katharine
(4/22/64) and Chidstienne (7/21/65).

HT; 6-2 • WT: 250 • BORN: 2/20/41 • (FA FOR '62) J
PRO: If anyone ever needs a perfect exam-
pie of persistency paying off, Dave Manders is
it. Signed as a free agent in 1962, he became
discouraged and left training camp. Dave played ""
semi-pro football for two years, then came back to the Cowboys and
made the 1964 team. He was a starter in 1965 and a Pro Bowler in
1966. Then he injured a knee, missed all of the 1967 season and
spent most of '68 and '69 on the bench. Manders regained his start
ing job in 1970 and was a key part of the '71 World Championship
drive. Through it all, he kept his sense of humor. "Somebody once
asked my wife who played center for the Dallas Cowboys," he says.
'She came and asked me." Cowboys Special Assistant Ermal Allen
says, "When we're trying to tell if a player is really putting out, we
compare him with Manders. We know Manders is always giving 100
per cent."
COLLEGE: Manders and Herb Adderley were teammates at
Michigan State, where Dave was an honorable mention All-Anierican
as a senior.
PERSONAL: Dave, born in Milwaukee, lives in Dallas with his
wife Betty and their children Mark (10/18/62), Mike (6/18/65) and
Catherine Elizabeth (10/3/69). He is an account executive for Radio
Station KBOX.

Craig Morton • 14 ^
QUARTERBACK • CALIFORNIA • 8th YEAR
HT: 6-4 • WT: 214 • BORN: 2/5/43 • (D-1 FOR '65)
PRO: Morton, a two-year starter, gained
added respect in 1971 for the way he handled
himself after Roger Staubach was named the
Cowboys' No. 1 quarterback at mid-season. "The
team comes first," Craig said. "I come second. There's no way I'm
going to say or do anything that might disrupt our team." He kept
his word, and a delicate situation proved no handicap as the Cow
boys marched to their first World Championship. Staubach _was
shaken up in the Super Bowl, and it looked for a time as if he might
have to leave the game. Tom Landry was asked afterwards if he had
been worried. "No," was the quick reply. "You're never worried when
you have a guy like Craig Morton ready to come in for you." Mor
ton's passing aim, after operations following the '69 and '70 seasons,
appeared to have regained full strength in '71. "It's something when
a guy can come back off two operations," says Staubach. "But it's
really something when he can come back off two operations involv
ing^ his arm. I don't think people realize what a tremendous amount
Craig^ has gone through. If I'd had the problems he's had, I'd be a
cook on a ship somewhere." Morton started only four games in 1971,
but still wound up as the No. 7 passer in the NFC and No. 10 in the
entire NFL. Looking ahead to '72, he said, "I'll be ready to play, and
if I'm in there I'll win for the Cowboys. I haven't relaxed studying.
I'm really just learning what this game is all about."
COLLEGE: An All-American at California in 1964, Morton was
the nation's No. 2 NCAA passer that year. He turned down a baseball
bonus to play pro football.
PERSONAL: Craig was raised in Campbell, Calif., where he was
an All-State high school player in football, basketball and baseball
and was offered major college scholarships in all three sports. A
bachelor, he lives in Dallas.

PRO: Neely's chance to taste victory in the
Supei* Bowl for the first time was ruined at mid-
season when he suffered a broken leg in a motor
cycle accident. The four-time Alf-Pro was side
lined the rest of the season. "I don't ride motorcycles any more,"
Neely says. "I learned. I'm like the mule — hit me upside the head
with a two-by-four and I get the message. I sold that bike four hours
after I got out of the hospital." Neely spent the off-season getting
his injured leg back into shape, the regimen including many sets of
tennis. The Cowboys fervently hoped for a full recovery by the big
lineman who rates as one of the NFL's premier tackles. He made the
switch from right tackle to left tackle in 1970, and was beginning to
30
 feel at home in his new; position when he was injured. "Some tackles

GUARD STANFORD 5th YEAR

HT: 6-4 WT: 251 . BORN: 3/29/46 (D-5 FOR '68)

PRO: After two seasons as the Cowboys'

__ starting right guard, Nye appears set foi- a solid
career in the Dallas line. "He doesn't get as much
' publicity as the Wrights and Nilands and Neelys,"
says Tom Landry, "but we think he is a solid football player and very
important to our success." Much of the Cowboys' record rushing
yardage in Super Bowl VI was gained behind the blocking of Nye
and right tackle Rayfield Wright. It was quite a day for a young
man who had his doubts about making it in the Nh L. After a couple
of weeks of my rookie year I think they were about ready to ship
me out," Nye says. "But they kept me around and I got my feet on
the ground and stuck."

DEFENSIVE TACKLE • ELIZABETH CITY STATE • 8th YEAR

HT: 6-6 • WT: 260 • BORN: 7/3/44 • (D-11 FOR '65)
PRO: Playing alongside Bob Lilly for eight
years is not the best way in the world to receive
a great deal of personal attention, but Pugh
nevertheless is beginning to come into his own.
"He's a great complement to Lilly,'says Defense Coach Ernie Staut-
ner. "He gives Bob more freedom, because no one man can block
Jethro now." Pugh led the team in quarterback traps in 1971 with
17 despite the fact he missed two games with an attack of "interval
appendicitis." The appendix was removed following the season, and
Jethro was looking forward to establishing himself as one of the top
defensive tackles in the league. "With experience, you play with a
lot more confidence," he says. "There are only so many blocks they
can use. After you've seen them all you get to the point where you
can react without having to think about it." Tom Landry sees a
bright future for Pugh. "He has been very good in the past few
years," says Landry, "and now he seems to have gotten over the
injury problems that bothered him in the past. He may come on to
have an exceptional year."
 COLLEGE: Pugh went to Elizabeth City State without a scholar-
snip, but earned one after his freshman season and was an all-
conference tackle for two years. He also was his team's Most Valuable

 Mel Renfro
CORNERBACK • OREGON • 9th YEAR
HT: 6-0 . WT: 190 • BORN: 12/30/41 • (D-2 FOR '64)
PRO: Renfi-o made it eight-for-eight last
season — eight years in the NFL, eight years in
~ the Pro Bowl. He also was named All-Pro for the
fourth time, but it was his first time at corner-
back after three previous awards as a safety. "During the six years
I was a free safety," Mel says, "I almost always was beat up after
a game and sore for a couple of days later. Since I was switched to
the comer in 1970, there have been Sundays when I go to the dressing
room feeling like I haven't played at all. Still, cornerback is more
difficult than free safety because it's almost always man-to-man. It's
you and him all day." Renfro's most celebrated "you and him" con
frontation came in Super Bowl VI, where he was matched up against
Miami's Paul Warfield and The Play suggested by President Nixon.
Wax-field caught four passes for 39 yards, and Mel could relax. "You
have to have nei-ves of steel at cornerback," he says. "You have to
accept defeat. You'i-e not going to shut your man out. You just have
to forget it when you get beat and say, 'I'll get him the next time.'"
COLLEGE; One of Oregon's greatest athletes, Mel was an All-
American at halfback and a trackman with bests of 9.6 in the 100,
13.8 in the high hurdles and 25-11% in the long jump. He played in
the 1964 College All-Star game.
PERSONAL: The prematurely balding Renfro bought a toupee
after the Super Bowl, and many of his teammates literally didn't
recognize him. Even Tom Landry was impressed. "If I thought I
could get a toupee as good as Mel's," Landry said, "I might go fox-
it." Mel was born in Houston, grew up in Poi-tland and now makes
his off-season home near the Cowboys' training camp in Thousand
Oaks, Calif. He and his wife Patricia have three children, Mel Jr.
(1/25/64), Tony (3/29/65) and Cindy (3/14/68).

i, I'C QUARTERBACK • NAVY • 4th YEAR
t HT: 6-3 • WT: 197 • BORN: 2/5/42 • (D-10, Future, '64)
^ PRO: "I believe vei-y strongly each time I
^|H/f step on the field that we're going to win, one
way or another," says Roger Staubach. At mid-
' season, 1971, the Cowboys were stniggling with a
4-3 record. Tom Landry named Staubach his No. 1 quarterback and
Dallas didn't lose again. In his first three seasons the Navy veteran
stai-ted 17 games and the Cowboys won 16 of them. The lone excep
tion was at St. Louis in 1970 when he left in the second quarter with
Dallas behind 6-0 and the Cowboys went on to lose 20-7. In '71 he
wound up as the No. 1 quarterback in the NFL, won the Bert Bell
Award as the leagpie's top player and was named the Most Valuable
Player in the Super Bowl. "Roger Staubach just isn't a guy you tell
he can't do something," says Mike Ditka. "There's no such word as
can't to him. You tell him that, or figure he can't, and he'll go right
out and prove you wrong." Says Landry, "Roger is learning every
time he steps on the field. But he has great confidence in himself.
He makes things happen." Staubach's running ability pulled the
Cowboys out of many holes in '71, but scrambling is not considered
an ideal trait for an NFL quarterback. "It's the wrong thing to go in
there and think run," Staubach says. "I really want to stay in the
pocket and control things. At times, though, running is a necessity,
and if it's there I will take it."
COLLEGE: Staubach won the Heisman Trophy and the Maxwell
Award as a junior at Navy, despite a shoulder injury that nearly
required surgery early in the season. He also lettered in basketball
and baseball, and captained the 1965 College All-Star squad.
PERSONAL: Roger's four-year hitch in the Navy, ending in 1969,
included one year as a port officer in Vietnam. He's a native of
Cincinnati who now lives in Dallas with his wife Marianne and their
daughters Jennifer (6/21/66), Michelle (5/23/68) and Stephanie Ma
rie (6/25/69). Roger is a real estate salesman for the Henry S. Miller
Co. in Dallas and a member of the national advisory staff of Aurora
Plastics. He also is very active in the Fellowship of Christian Ath
letes and is honorai'y national co-chairman of the National Hemophilia
Society. He was named Sports Father of the Year in 1972.

Mark Washington • 46
CORNERBACK • MORGAN STATE • 3rd YEAR

PRO: A knee^ injury^ kept Washington side-

lined for most of 19'71, but the Cowboys still
believe he can develop into an outstanding corner-
back. As a rookie in 1970, IMark returned a kick-
off 100 yards for a touchdown against the Washington Redskins,
intercepted a pass and recovered a fumble — all while seeing only
limited duty.

HI: 6-1 . WT: 193 . BORN: 9/10/48 • (D-3 FOR 70)
PRO: The third year of the Charlie Waters-
Cliff Harris battle was expected to continue in
1972 as the two best friends resumed their duel ' ^
for the starting free safety job. Waters took over
from Harris in 1970 when Cliff was called to active duty in the
Arniy, and Charlie led the team in intei'ceptions. Harris regained his
position early in the '71 season and Waters had to content himself
with returning punts and kickoffs and helping out on the specialty
teams. "Harris was the starter last year and did a good job," said
Tom Landry, "but I know Waters isn't going to be happy sitting on
the bench." Charlie was a quarterback and receiver in college, but
during the '70 draft Scout Red Hickey said to Landry, "Tom, I'd
take this boy and tell him to start backpedaling. He's a good athlete
and he can play defense."
COLLEGE: Waters became Clemson's No. 3 all-time passcatcher
in just 15 games as a receiver, grabbing 68 for 1,165 yards.
PERSONAL: Charlie and his wife Mary Ann live in Dallas,
where he is a partner in an 800-acre motorcycle camp called On Any
Sunday. Waters was an eight-letter athlete (football, baseball and

HT: 5-11 • WT: 203 BORN: 7/3/47 (D-9 FOR '69)
PRO:"With running backs like Walt Garrison,
Calvin Hill and Duane Thomas ahead of him,
> Welch doesn't get many opportunities to show
~ what he can do. But he's always ready when
called upon. "There just isn't time for them to mess with a guy who
can't produce when the opportunity, no matter how small, presents
itself," he says. "I prepare for every game just like I was going to
start." Claxton had his busiest year in 1971, carrying 14 times for 51
yards and a touchdown, and his special team efforts paid off in a
safety against the Chicago Bears.
COLLEGE: Welch was bothered by injuries at Oregon, but still
rushed for 525 yards in only six games his senior year.
PERSONAL: Claxton grew up in Portland, Ore., where he now
makes his off-season home. He was a high school All-Stater in foot

Ron Widby
PUNTER TENNESSEE 5th YEAR
HT: 6-4 VYT: 210 • BORN: 3/9/45 (D-4 FOR '67)
PRO: Widby's four years with the Cowboys
set a team longevity record for punters as he
came up with another consistent perfoi'mance in
1971. Ron averaged 41.6 yards per kick to rank
third in the NFC and eighth in the NFL with his second best season-
long showing for Dallas. His long punt was 59 yards, but that didn't
come close to the 84-yarder he booted as a rookie in 1968. "One day
our equipment manager. Jack Eskridge, gave me a tip," says Ron.
"He said Sam Baker used to say that anybody could kick with the
wind, but that it was a real pro who learned how to kick against it.
Ever since then, I have practiced every day only against the wind."
COLLEGE: Widby was the NCAA punting champion as a senior
at Tennessee, where he also was an All-America basketball player.
PERSONAL: Ron played a year of professional basketball, with
New Orleans of the ABA in 1967, and is a two-handicap golfer. He
and his wife Joan and their sons Ronald Scott (11/5/68) and Michael
Craig (5/20/71) live in Dallas where Ron sells advertising for Mac
Percival Advertising Specialties (Percival is the Chicago Bears place-
kicker).

Rayfield Wright • 70
TACKLE • FORT VALLEY STATE • 6th YEAR
HT: 6-6 • WT: 255 • BORN: 8/23/45 • (D-7 FOR '67)
PRO: Wright emerged in 1971 as one of the
very best offensive tackles in the NFL, making
All-Pro for the first time and playing in the
Pro Bowl. After only two years as the Cowboys'

defensive end Jim Riley says, "Rayfield Wright is the best offensive
lineman I faced all year. Maybe the best I've ever played against."
For three years, Wright was shuffled from tackle to tight end to
defensive end and back to tackle. In 1970 he reached the point where
a place had to be found for him, and Neely was moved to left tackle
after four All-Pro years at the position that now belongs to Wright.
"Rayfield is as good as you want to talk about," says Offensive Line
Myers. "He is excellent, just excellent. If there's an
tackle in the league as good, I don't know about him. Ray
field IS a great leader (offensive co-captain), an excellent young
man, just everything." Wright is known for his positive attitude. "I
feel Im one of the top tackles," he says. "I'm not trying to brag, I
just have a lot of confidence in myself. I want people to notice me
as one of the best."
^OLLEGE: Wright was a track, football and basketball letterman
at h ort Valley State in Georgia, making All-Conference in the latter
two sports. He played several positions on the football team, includ
ing defensive back. In track, he ran a 50 flat 440.

 THE ROOKIES
AMMAN BABINECZ

AMMAN, RICHARD • Defensive End • Florida State

Ht: 6-5 • Wt: 234 • Born: 9/21/50 • D-10 for "72
Amman was a two-year starter for Florida State at defensive
tackle, but was to be tried at defensive end in the Cowboys' camp. He
impressed scouts with his speed, and was thought to have the frame
to put on muscle for NFL competition. "Attitude, strength, hustle,
size," were listed as Amman's major assets.
BABINECZ, JOHN • Linebacker • Villanova
Hft 6-1 • Wt: 222 • Bom: 7/27/50 • D-2B for "72
The Cowboys hoped Babinecz (pronounced Babi-NEZ) would be
able to provide depth for their veteran corps of linebackers, and
eventually move into a starting job. "He's a great competitor," said
Cowboys Scout Red Hickey. "He's aggressive and tough, and he will
pay the price to win." Babinecz spent much of his spare time in
college working with crippled children in the Philadelphia area.
BATEMAN, MARV • Punter-Kicker • Utah
Ht: 6-4 • Wt: 213 • Born: 4/5/50 • D-3B for "72
Bateman led the nation in punting in both 1970 and 1971, averag
ing 48.1 yai-ds per kick in '71. He also was a placekicker at Utah,
hitting six of eight extra point attempts and four of 10 field goal
tries in '71. He can punt left-footed as well as right-footed. "Left-
footed I kick 35 to 40 yards," said Bateman.
BOLDEN, CHARLES • Defensive Back • Iowa
Ht: 6-3 • Wt: 195 • Born: 1/19/49 • D-6 for '72
Bolden was something of a "sleeper" selection by the Cowboys.
He played at Iowa for a couple of yeai-s, but was a member of the
semi-pro Quad Cities team in 1971. Still, the scouts believed his size
and 4.5-4.6 speed made him a good prospect as a defensive back.
COLEMAN, RALPH • Linebacker • North Carolina A&T
Ht: 6-4 • Wt: 216 • Born: 8/31/50 • D-8 for '72
Speed and agility were considered Coleman's biggest assets at
North Carolina A&T. Probably the fastest linebacker drafted by the
Cowboys, his big play ability was noted by the scouts. Coleman's
college coach, Homsby Howell, assists the Cowboys each summer in
training camp at California Lutheran College in Thousand Oaks.
FUGETT, JEAN • Tight End • Amherst
Ht; 6-3 • Wt: 219 • Bora: 12/16/51 • D-13 for '72
Fugett was the leading receiver and scorer for Amherst in 1971,
catching 39 passes for 635 yards and nine touchdowns and earning
Little All-America honors. He was one of, if not the, youngest players
in NFL camps in '72 — just 20 when he repoi-ted to the Cowboys.
HARRIS, JIMMY • Wide Receiver • Ohio State
Ht: 5-10 • Wt: 180 • Born: 4/18/50 • D-12 tor '72
Harris' sprinter speed (9.4 in the 100, 6.1 in the 60) convinced
the Cowboys to draft him despite his modest football statistics at
Ohio State where he caught nine passes for 200 yards in 1971.
KEARNEY. TIM • Linebacker • Northern Michigan
Ht: 6-2 • Wt: 225 • Born: iy5/50 • D-4A for 72
A three-year starter at Northern Michigan, Kearney hails from
the same Kingsford, Mich., high school that sent Dave Manders to
Michigan State and ultimately to the Cowboys. Kearney (pronounced
KAR-ney) eamed second team Little All-America honors in college.
His aggressiveness was noted by Cowboys scouts. "He misses tackles
sometimes trying to kill the ball carrier," read one report.
KELLER, MIKE • Linebacker • Michigan
Ht: 6-4 • Wt: 221 • Born: 12/13/49 • D-3A for 72
A defensive end at Michigan, Keller was to be given a shot at
linebacker for the Cowboys. His size and speed made him well-suited
for the latter position in the pros. Scouts praised Keller for "very
good quickness, agility, balance, coordination and body control." Mike
was a three-year college regular and a two-time All-Big Ten choice.
LEONARD, LONNIE • Tackle • North Carolina A&T
Ht: 6-4 • Wt: 244 • Born: 4/28/49 • D-11 for 72
Leonard was the Cowboys' second 1972 pick from his Greensboro,
N. C., school, and the Cowboys liked his size and quickness. He was
the only interior offensive lineman drafted by Dallas in '72.
LONGMIRE, SCOOTER • Quarterback • Utah
Ht: 6-1 • Wt: 205 • Born: 4/21/49 • D-16 for 72
Longmire was the only quarterback drafted by the Cowboys in
1972. Redshirted for a year after transferring from Michigan State,
he passed for more than 1,700 yards and 14 toucl^do^vns in two sea
sons at Utah. Longmire was drafted by the Cincinnati Reds after
setting records in baseball and football in high school at Tracy, Calif.
McKEE, CHARLES • Wide Receiver • Arizona
Ht: 6-2 • Wt: 199 • Bom: 2/2/50 • D-2C for 72
A big pass catcher with 4.6 speed, McKee's scouting report read.
"Great hands, makes everything look easy, very dangerous bomb
threat, smart and can learn." McKee led Arizona in receiving and
scoring in '71 with 43 receptions for 854 yards and five touchdowns,
and had a career total of 24 touchdown receptions.

NEWHOUSE, ROBERT • Running Back • Houston

Ht: 5-10 • Wt: 202 • Born: 1/9/50 • D-2A for "72
"Based on pure running ability, we felt Newhouse was probably
the best back in the di-aft," said the Cowboys' Red Hickey. "When it
came to a choice between him and (No. 1 pick) Bill Thomas, we went
with the big back, but we were mighty happy when Newhouse was
still there in the second round." Newhouse rushed for 2,961 yards in
his career at Houston, a 6.4 average, and scored 19 touchdowns.
Asked if his height were a handicap, he replied, "I'm not going to
grow an inch, but maybe I can play a little bigger than I am."

THOMAS, BILL • Running Back • Boston College

Ht: 6-2 • Wt: 225 • Born: 8/7/49 • D-1 for "72
"He's another big back like Duane Thomas and Calvin Hill," said
Tom Landry. "He has comparable speed (4.6 in the 40) and he's
strong." Thomas was bothered by injuries at Boston College, pri
marily a dislocated shoulder that sidelined him for all but four games
of his junior season. His statistics were not ovei-whelming (598 rush
ing yards for a 5.0 average as a senior, 931 and 4.5 for his career),
but the Cowboys felt his potential was worth a No. 1 pick.
WEST, ROBERT • Wide Receiver • San Diego State
Ht: 6-4 • Wt: 218 • Born: 10/3/50 • D-4B for "72
"When this fellow grabs the ball and turns upfield," said Red
Hickey, "that secondary better be loose. He can really motor." West
caught only 11 passes in 1971 for 265 yards (a 24.1 average) and
two touchdowns, but his size and 4.6 speed convinced the Cowboys he
was worth a closer look.

ZAPIEC, CHARLES • Linebacker • Penn State

Ht: 6-2 • Wt: 222 • Born: 7/1/49 • D-4C for '72
An offensive guard for two seasons at Penn State, Zapiec switched
to linebacker in his senior year and that's where the Cowboys in
tended to use him."We are always saying we want players who think
in terms of 'we and us' rather than 'I and me,'" said Penn State
Coach Joe Paterno. "That fits Zapiec perfectly." Zapiec (pronounced
ZAY-peck) was a science major in college and a frequent member
of the athletic honor roll.

 National Conference Finals
DALLAS, Jan. 2 — A big play by an old pro provided the key as
the Cowboys stopped the San Francisco 49ers, 14-3, to bring the NFC
championship to Dallas for the second straight year.
Defensive end George Andrie, a 10-year veteran, intercepted a
second-quarter John Brodie pass at the 49ers* nine-yard line and
rumbled to the two. Calvin Hill scored on his second thrust from
there and a scoreless tie suddenly became a 7-0 Dallas advantage.
A 20-yard field goal by Bruce Gossett in the third quarter cut the
Cowboys' lead to 7-3.
•m DuaneSl^ubach
Thomas'then directed
two-yard an 80-yard,
touchdown run 14-play drive
with 5:43 culminating
elapsed in the
final period. That made it 14-3, and the Dallas "Doomsday Defense"
kept things under control the rest of the way. The Cowboys headed
for Super Bowl VI in New Orleans to meet the Miami Dolphins.
