Lions' Joe Fourqurcan walks away, as Waddell Smith celebrates Tom Scott's last play touchdown
RAPP INFURIATED
 Lions crushed by Eskimos
by Canadian Press
   Edmonton Eskimos are making it difficult to accept defeat gracefully, coach Vic Rapp said Sunday after the Eskimos slapped his British Columbia Lions 40-8, rubbing it in with a touchdown in the last six seconds of a Canadian Football League game.
    That last touchdown was a little too much humiliation for Rapp, a former assistant coach with the Eskimos. Incensed, he shouted unkind words at Eskimo coaches seeking to offer post-game condolences and stormed off the field.
    The temper tantrum ignited a brief scuffle. Players from both teams pushed and shoved, with Edmonton head coach Hugh Campbell falling victim to a less-than-gentle poke from an unidentified B.C. player.
    “We’re not the first ones to walk out of here feeling this way,” Rapp said, referring to the lopsided scores the Eskimos had compiled in fashioning an undefeated 8-0-2 record.
    In other games Sunday, Calgary Stampeders whipped Saskatchewan Roughriders 52-10 and Montreal Alouettes beat Hamilton Tiger-Cats 21-14. Saturday, Gerry Organ’s last-play field goal gave Ottawa Rough Riders a 22-19 victory over Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
    Rapp said “the ground rules have been laid” for the clubs’ next clash in Vancouver Nov. 3. “The wheel keeps turning and some day, some place, some time, things will change."
    Of the game itself, which put the Eskimos three points ahead of the Lions in the battle for first place in the Western Conference, Rapp said simply:
   “We got beat badly, both ways, man and zone. They’re an extremely good football team.”
    The Eskimos swept to most of their points on the strength of rookie Brian Kelly’s pass catching. Kelly caught eight passes for 239 yards and played a role in four of the Eskimos’ five touchdowns. He scored two himself — producing an 80-yard touchdown on a pass from Tom Wilkinson on
B.C. coach Vic Rapp vowed revenge after the game.
 the first play from scrimmage and a 14-yard touchdown on a third-quarter pass from Warren Moon.
  Tom Scott had two touchdowns and Waddell Smith one as Moon and Wilkinson, who each played a half, completed 20 of 31 passes for 467 yards. Dave Cutler had five converts and a 5J-yard field goal and Hank Ilesic two punt singles.
   The Lions had to settle for a 106-yard touchdown by Leon Bright on a pass from relief quarterback Frank Nott and two singles by Lui Passaglia. It was the longest gain from scrimmage in the CFL this season.
   B.C. reached the ultimate in futility before 42,778 fans in the third quarter when the Eskimo defence stopped the Lions six times inside the Edmonton fiveyard line.
   In Regina, Calvin Kirk came back to haunt his former teammates. He scored two touchdowns in his first game
 since he was reacquired by Calgary after being released by Saskatchewan two weeks
 ago.
   It was Saskatchewan’s 10th straight loss, equalling a CFL record set by the Roughriders in 1959.
   The Stampeders also got three touchdowns from running back Willie Burden, one each from James Sykes and Tom Forzani, seven converts anda single from J.T. Hay and two singles from Mike McTague.
   Slotback Willie Wilders took a Craig Juntunen pass 96 yards down the sidelines for a secon-dquarter touchdown for Saskatchewan, the club’s first touchdown in 17 quarters. Bob Macoritti converted and added a 49-yard field goal.
   Coach Ron Lancaster has been shuffling the lineup in an effort to get something going for the Roughriders, who now have had 50 points scored on them four times this season, but it hasn’t done any good.
AWARDS CEREMONY
No stars on fastball champs
   A team doesn’t often win a playoff title without placing at least one player on the all-star team, but it happened thisyear in the Spruce City men’s fastball league.
   The year-end awards ceremony was held Saturday.
   Lomak Transport, perhaps showing that balanced teamwork pays off, didn’t have any individual award winners, but walked off with the playoff championship, beating Mackenzie Merchants 3-1 in the best-of-five final.
   Surprisingly, the Merchants had only pitcher Ed Gelinas on the all-star team.
   Gelinas, who led Mackenzie to the B.C. senior C men’s title, topped the league with an earned runned average of 1.28.
  He was also named the league’s best pitcher.
   Mackenzie finished runner-up to McDermids and Lofting Canadians during the regular season in addition to placing second in the playoffs.
   The most valuable player trophy went to Rick Tuttosi of the Pine Centre Mailers.
   Tuttosi, who had a 6-2 record as a pitcher, played well in the outfield ana batted .403 to finish third in the league.
   .Tuttosi was also named as one of four outfielders on the all-star team.
   There were four because of a tie in the balloting.
   The league champion Canadians had four players named to the all-star team, along with Frank Bencher as Coach of the Year.
   Catcher Greg Halvorson, third baseman Mike Moog, shortstop Gary Goyer and out-
 fielder Larry Lavallee all were McDermids players to make the team.
  No other team had more than one player picked as an all-star.
  Ron Thomas of Ted Doyle Trucking was the all-star winner at first base and league batting champion at .455.
   He also tied for the home run lead, with Don Abercrombie of Lomak at three.
  Pat Martin of Clandonald Lads filled another outfield position, as did Tom Mueller of Save-T Driving School.
   Even though Analog placed last, it had two individual award winners, one of them winning twice.
   Second baseman Pat McCal-lum won an all-star berth and was named most improved.
  Dave Jarvis was chosen most sportsmanlike.
   Moog received honorable mention.
   In related matters, head umpire Mike Bundock said Prince George has a level four official and three level three umpires.
   He says it’s the first time that the city has ever had rated officials.
   League president Don Wilkie said ne thought the league, which changed its name from Big Six during the season had made positive changes which will make things easier in future.
  He mentioned improvements to Spruce City Field and noting the full house at the awards ceremony, felt interest is on the rise after a few s!ow years.
Quarterbacks clobbered
    In Hamilton, a touchdown by running back David Green early in the fourth quarter, the only one the Montreal offence could produce, gave the Alouettes the decision.
    Defensive end Junior Ah You got the other Montreal touchdown when he blocked a
 Sunt and recovered the loose all in the Hamilton end zone. Kicker Don Sweet added two 30-yard field goals, two converts and a single.
   Tom Clements, who started at quarterback for the Tiger-Cats for the first time since he joined the club from Saskatchewan two weeks ago, threw touchdown passes to fullback Neil Lumsden and wide receiver Brock Aynsley. Zenon Andrusyshyn had a single and a convert.
   The win increased Montreal’s first-place margin to three points over Ottawa.
    In Winnipeg on Saturday, the Blue Bombers were ahead 19-11 with two minutes left to play but allowed the Rough Riders to come back with an 86-yard march that culminated in a 35yard touchdown pass to Jeff Avery and a two-point convert toss to Bruce Walker.
   Martin Cox had the other Ottawa touchdown while Organ also contributed a single, a field goal and a convert to the Ottawa cause. Winnipeg got all its points from kicking specialist Bernie Ruoff, who had a single and six field goals.
Olympic teams in exhibitions
  MONTREAL (CP) - The National Hockey League’s 1979-80 exhibition schedule will feature a record 105 games, including five contests against the Canadian Olympic team and four against the United States Olympic squad, it was announced Monday. The exhibition schedule includes eight games more than played last season and the contests will be played in 53 North American cities, beginning Sept. 20.

   Terry Bradshaw led a parade of clobbered quarterbacks to the sidelines Sunday. Fortunately for Pittsburgh Steelers, he made it back to the huddle.
    Bradshaw, carried off the field on a stretcher with a badly-bruised ankle in the first half, returned to guide the unbeaten Steelers to a 17-point final quarter that overhauled St. Louis Cardinals 24-21 in National Football League action.
    “Our whole football team. I think, came back from adverse circumstances,’’ Steelers coach Chuck Noll said after rookie Matt Bahr's 20-yard field goal with 13 seconds to play turned back the Cardi nals. “I think that’s the mark of a champion.”
    Bob Griese left Miami’s game with a pulled leg muscle and Don Strock stepped in, throwing a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns to propel the Dolphins past Minnesota Vikings 27-12.
    Cincinnati wasn’t so lucky, however. A bruised back sidelined Ken Anderson and the Bengals, despite two TD runs by rookie quarterback Jack Thompson, lost 20-14 to New England Patriots.
    Elsewhere, Houston Oilers defeated Kansas City Chiefs 20-6, Seattle Seahawks dumped Oakland Raiders 27-10, Denver Broncos beat Atlanta Falcons 20-17 in overtime, Cleveland Browns edged Baltimore Colts 13-10 and Dallas Cowboys struggled past Chicago Bears 24-20.
 Golf title for rookie in playoff
   GRAND BLANC, Mich. (AP) - Jim Fought, a 25-year-old rookie on the Professional Golfers’ Association tour, made a three-foot par putt on the second playoff hole to defeat Jim Simons for the title in the $150,000 Buick Open tournament Sunday
    Fought and Simons began their playoff on the par-five, 598-yard 16th hole where each carded a par.
    On the 185-yard, par-three 17th hole, Simons hit his drive way left to the edge of a clump of trees. Simons then skulled his second shot across the green and into a sand trap and blasted his third shot eight feet from the pin where he two-putted for a double-bogey five.
    Fought., a Portland, Ore., native who won the United States amateur championship in 1977, hit his tee shot on No. 17 on to the fringe below the hole.
    The 6-foot, 190-pounder calmly chipped to within three feet of the pin. Then, after watching while Simmons missed his putt for bogey, sank his three-footer for his first tournament victory.
   The triumph was worth $27,000 to the Brigham Young graduate and earned him use of a new Buick for a year. More important, it earned Fought an exemption from qualifying for PGA tournaments - a Monday chore the less-celebrated touring pros detest.

SOCCER LEADERS
Perfection a step away
   Labatt’s Tripke is only one game away from an undefeated season in the North Cariboo Soccer Association.
   Defending champion Tripke came close last weekend with a 1-1 draw against second place P.G. Croatia, but Labatt's took no chances Sunday, dumping City Furniture 8-0.
   The league leaders, now with 14 wins and three draws, spread their goals among six players.
  Colin Grot and Randy France scored two apiece, while Graham West, Joe Mauro, Fausto Mauro and Orlando Mauro tallied once each.
   The outgunned losers, missing star player Dave Kando-la, trailed only 2-0 at halftime, but faded badly in the final 45 minutes.
   Kandola has moved to Vancouver for employment reasons and will play for the
 first division Croatian club there.
   He was one of several City Furniture regulars missing from their side in the lopsided loss.
   Several injuries were sustained Wednesday in an exhibition match with Prince George Regional Hospital.
   Labatt’s, which clinched first place last weekend, has a bye for Sunday’s upcoming games and faces PCO Raiders Sept. 30 on the final day of regular season games.
