Chiefs lead rush defense
NEW YORK (UPI)—The New York Jets have a reputation as a free wheeling offensive club but the leaders of the American Football League's Eastern Division can point with pride to their newly developed defensive abilities.
The weekly AFL team statistics released today show Coach Weeb Ewbank's Jets have yielded only 85.3 yards per game in rushing, tops in the division.
Kansas City, a club known for balance, leads the AFL in rushing defense, yielding an average of 83.6 points a game.
San Diego leads the league in total defense, giving up an average of 252.0 yards per game. Defending champion Oakland, unbeaten in four games, is a close second with an average yield of 252.5 yards.
In team offense, Oakland is the league leader with an average of 427.3 yards per outing.
Kansas City enjoys a wide margin in the important interception department where the Chiefs have grabbed off a total of 14 enemy passes. Their nearest rivals, Buffalo and Oakland, have nine interceptions.
Prep fullback adds yards
Lawrence High School senior fullback Mike Cerne continued his bid for high school all-America honors in last week's 55-0 romp over Hayden.
Cerne, an athlete who is expected to be one of the most sought after prep football players in the nation when he finishes his career in November, carried the ball five times for 51 yards in the rout.
The 185-pound back scored two touchdowns—one on a one-eyed plunge and the other on a 49-vard punt return.
Another top college prospect
from Lawrence High School, Larry Kimball, a 173-pound senior halfback, carried the ball 10 times for 109 yards and one touchdown.
Coach Al Woolard was "very pleased" after Friday's game.
He expressed concern over this week's opponent, Shawnee Mission East, an outfit with a 0-3 record but a team which, Woolard, before the season began, said would be one of their toughest opponents during the year. The game is at Shawnee Mission.

Athletes want new shoes
MEXICO CITY (UPI)—The "Big Shoe" controversy hit the 1968 Olympic Games this week, and if it isn't solved in a hurry there are going to be an awful lot of unhappy track and field athletes in Mexico City.
Lee Evans, the world 400-meter dash record holder from San Jose, Calif., disclosed that a Mexican government ban against all other shoe manufacturers but one has left him and many other athletes with old and tattered shoes for the competition which begins on Sundav.
"The way I've heard it," said Evans, "is that the Mexican government signed an exclusive contract with just one shoe
Hitless wonders

manufacturer and won't let others bring their shoes into the country. As a result, many of us here don't have the shoes we like. Personally, I like a shoe with a long spike, but the company permitted to sell shoes here has only shoes with short spikes. "I understand," continued Evans, "that the British and other countries have started a petition to the International Olympic Committee. I've started one, too, among the Americans. This is just awful. If I can't get the shoes I need then I will have to run in a pair of old tattered practice shoes."

2. What happened to the Viper Mark IV?
I just couldn't identify with that car.
3. That's what you said about the Sidewinder Eight.
But a Python is something else. Four-on-the floor, six-barrel carb, console tach... and what a steal!
When you see a great buy coming your way, you have to grab it.

South Lake Tahoe, Calif., in September, athletes were allowed to use any shoe they liked. Evans and John Carlos of New York City used types of shoes banned in Mexico to set their world records of 44 second flat in the 400-meter dash and 19.7 seconds in the 200-meter dash, respectively. Evans' shoes had six long spikes on the soles and Carlos' 88 brush-like needles.
Evans said Wade Bell, the 800-meter runner from Ogden, Utah, is in even worse shape.
"Wade has a foot problem and all his shoes have to be made from a special mold," said Evans. "The company which makes his shoes is banned here."
