CHICAGO (AP)
Southern California’s John

All-Stars, has shaped a sort of
Trojan football horse to
challenge the favored Miami
Dolphins in Soldier Field
Friday night.
McKay has marshaled his
entire coaching staff and no
fewer than eight standouts
from his 1972 national
championship Trojan team
for the 40th renewal of the
pro-dominated All-Star
series.
However, ’ McKay is en
trusting his Southern
California “I” formation to
the direction of a pair of non-
Trojan quarterbacks Bert
Jones’of Louisiana State and
Joe Ferguson of Arkansas.
But he still will rely on such
USC stars as fullback Sam

Charles Young, center Dave
Brown and guards Pete
Adams and Allan Graf on
offense, and linemen John
Grant, and Jeff Winahs and
comerback Charles Hinton on
defense.

KANSAN CITY (AP) -
Johnny Bench, Bobby Bonds
and, Willie Davis all blasted
home runs, keynoting a power
show that carried the
National League to a 7-1 romp
over the Americans in
baseball’s 44th annual All-
Star Game last night.
Bench ripped his third All-
Star homer while Bonds and
Davis each connected in only
their second career All-Star
swings to help the Nationals
win for the 10th time in the
last 11 midsummer clashes

The victory extended the
NL’s over-all lead in the
series to 25-18. One game
ended in a tie.
Bench, the Cincinnati Reds’
catcher who led the nation
wide fan balloting with
almost 1.75 million votes,
touched off the long-ball
attack with a giant-sized
bases-empty shot in the
fourth inning.
Then Bonds of the San
Francisco Giants and Davis
of the Los Angeles Dodgers,
both added to the NL roster
by Manager Sparky An
derson, clubbed two-run
homers in the fifth and sixth
innings to put the NL in firm
control.

Seven NL pitchers limited
the Americans to five hits,
i Although the Nationals won
handily, they had to come
from behind to do it. The AL
struck first, picking up a run
off NL starter Rick Wise in
the second inning when
Oakland’s Reggie Jackson
openedwith a booming double
off the center field wall and
dashed home on a single by
hometown hero Amos Otis of
the Kansas City Royals.
Otis’ hit prompted loud
cheers from the crowd of
40,849, largest ever in Royals
Stadium. But the NL soon
quieted the crowd.
Atlanta’s Darrell Evans
opened the NL third with a
walk from Bert Blyleven of
Minnesota, the third AL
pitcher. Starter Jim “Cat
fish” Hunter of Oakland was
forced to leave the game in
the second when Billy
Williams of the Chicago Cubs
singled off his pitching hand.
Teammate Ken Holtzman
finished the inning for
Hunter, who was scheduled
for precautionary X-rays this
morning.
