Belzer tossed 11 E00TBAU By Pete Fritchie WASHINGTON. D. C. -- Pro football is difficult to forecast but it's hard to sec how any team this year can be rated above Pittsburgh. The Steelers have several good quarterbacks led by Terry Bradshaw and five or six good wide receivers. They have the defense to hold down the score. It may be that the Steelers are aging, but they have a num­ ber of outstanding young linemen and backs. Dallas has looked good with new quarterback White at the helm and might be once more in the Superbowl but chances that the same two teams meet are. slim. Too many factors such as injuries figure in. The Cleveland Browns, in completions in the game and was intercepted once, hut only exhibition play at least , have one pass, that of Sean Haley ended up in the endzone for six shown a remarkable ability to points. STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD fumble the ball, often on kickoff receptions. This team revives the old charae-- whether true or not--that blacks are better broken-field runners but more prone to fumble. Houston will be especial­ ly interesting with Ken Stabler at the helm, and has looked strong. Oakland may also be stronger. Miami and Washington, always tough, seem solid again. San Diego is a contender. Green Bay- how long can Bart Starr stay there if he doesn't produce? -has been a disappointment. The Eagles have given Philadelphia new hope and look like comers. New England and Denver both look good and Detroit might be much improved. Tampa Bay will do well to match it's 1979 record. Kansas City is improved and New Orleans also might show* improvement--so too Atlanta. In short, it promises to be one of the best pro football seasons in many years. EARL WALSH' So 1 Hear • Stay trim all winter by jog­ ging. But when you winter-jog, remember to dress in layers. The colder it is, the more layers you should wear. And don't forget your hat. Up to fifty percent of body heat is lost by not wearing a topper. Our readers are giving me something to read. Fred Bienapfl brought a super feature story from the Minneapolis Tribune about a 900 mile trip in a Model T Ford. The author, Fred Childs, doesn't miss a detail in telling of this venturesome trip back in 1918. Childs' father made up his mind to take the family from Dickinson, N.D. to Boscobel, Wis. It was a summer trip over dirt roads and some gravel. His pappy didn't set out blindly. Nope. He studied maps and figured the 900 miles could be covered in five days at an average of 20 miles per hour. And that's just the way it worked out. The card had side curtains to snap on in case of rain. That is, if you could get them on before the rain got you. They packed a tent and placed three cans on one of the running boards, one for extra gas, one for water if the radiator boiled over, and one for oil. Patching material was always carried in those days since back tires didn't go too far without going flat. Childs tells about his father driving into town upon their arrival to tell the natives abouHiis trip., Dad kicked both front tires and said, "Boys, there is North Dakota air in those tires". I well remember trips to Woodstock when you might make it there and back without a flat tire. But, drive as far as Elgin and look out. Well, I enjoyed that story so much I read it twice. Now comes a magazine, Successful Farming, Oc­ tober 1931 issue, 5 cents per copy, found by Mrs. Roland Herrmann in an old trunk owned by her mother. Mom must have tucked the issue away for future reading since that was the month and year that her daughter was born. Too busy for reading. On the first page an ad tells prospective buyers they can take home a new In­ ternational 1M> ton truck for **• _ Of course, nobody would buy a truck until they read an article weighing the question: Horse vs. truck? Now we see "Lucky the child who is raised on a farm". _ Oh, they are lucky unless the schedule is all work and no play. _ Radios were becoming popular on farms in those days. A new dry cell battery was a boon to those who didn't have electricity. A County Supt. of Schools bemoaned the fact that more attention was given to beautifying cemeteries than to schoolgrounds. He finally found a school that took his fancy. The school building was up front with a water well nearby. Out back was a horse shed that separated little buildings marked Boys and Girls. S h r u b b e r y w a s strategically placed. It is fascinating to read through this magazine of 50 years ago. _ Here is an ad for a coal and wood-burning kitchen range for $37.50.

On page is set aside for readers to send in ideas. Here's one: When canning or preserving, instead of labeling your jars, write the name of the product with a common crayola while the jar is still hot. Now you tell me! Have you farmers ever tried this one? To prevent flies from bothering the cows at milking time, split two gunny sacks and sew them together making a sheet about twice as long as it is wide. Might add it would be a good idea to sew old bossy's tail to something to prevent her from hitting you in the eye with unerring accuracy. So. That's the end of my reading. Thanks for the memories. And thanks for material to make a column It will be years before football fans will quit talking about that rare finish to the Green Bay-Bears game last Sunday. ...
