ATLANTA (AP) Henry
Aaron's dramatic chase of
Babe Ruth's career home run
record continues in virtual
obscurity at home, despite a
massive program initiated' by
local businesses to honor the
39-year-old superstar.
Aaron, now needing only
three homers to tie Ruth's
-lifetime mark of 714, played
before more than 135,000 fans
during a three-day trip to
Cincinnati last weekend. _
He returned honie Monday
night to a crowd of only 1,362
lowest ever for the Braves
game in Atlanta and
smashed No. 711.
Despite massive coverage
of the home run in local
news Rapers and the fact that
theLlraves were facing
another road trip, only 4,236
watched Tuesday night's
battle with San Diego, in
which Aaron had a single in
four trips.

(The Braves were to face
the Dodgers in Los Angeles
late last night.)
"It's disappointing to see
only 1,300, but being a
professional ball player I feel
like the 1,300 who came are
entitled to see you play as
hard as you can," Aaron had
said following his home run.
"We've got to have a
contender," said Manager
Eddie Mathews. "I think
that's the answer. Gimmicks
won't do it. We need a
winner." 1
Atlanta has drawn only
726,520 in 64 playing dates at"
home this year, while
1,457,016 watched Aaron and
the Braves on the road in 73
playing dates.
The club has been out of
contention most of the year
and was mired in fifth place
before last night"s action, 21
games behind Cincinnati in
the National League West.

Holloway played the 1972
football season under wraps.
Coach Bill Battle simply
didn't want to run the risk of
his star quarterback getting
hurt. . ,
But Battle had to turn
Holloway loose Saturday
night after Duke, taking
advantage of Tennessee
fumbles, built a 17-7 halftime
lead.
The shifty little junior from
Huntsville, Ala., ignited a
Tennessee comeback with a
49-yard scoring run in the
third quarter and set up the
winning TD with a fourth
down dive to the Duke one in
the waning minutes.

WASHINGTON (AP)
When Washington Coach
George Allen acquired Ken
Houston - from the Houston
Oilers for five second-line
players, he was one of the few
people who thought the
veteran defensive back would
be important to the
Washington Redskins.
Since last May 15, however,
the Redskins' secondary has
learned how important it was
to get Houston. -

Working together in their
first regular-season, game
last Sunday, Owens and
Houston led a defense which
helped shellshock the San
Diego Chargers 38-0.
Owens recovered a fumble
—caused in part by a Houston
tackle and scampered 36
yards for a touchdown.
Houston returned a fumble
six yards and set up another
Redskins' touchdown.
Houston intercepted two
Johnny Unitas passes, one
setting up a touchdown.
Owens also picked off a
Unitas aerial, setting up a
field goal.
For their efforts, the
Redskins' secondary stars
were named The Associated

They also received the
cheers of their teammates
when Allen made the
announcement at a meeting
before practice.

Nick Buoniconti.
