Bryant's last
class
to be
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. Alabama's
fifth-year seniors number an even dozen, and
when the 1986 college football season ends,
the last class that Bear Bryant recruited will
be history.
They all redshirted in 1982 so they didn't
play in any of Bryant's 323 victories. But they
will be included among "Bear's Boys."
Four of them -- tackle Hoss Jol: nson,
center Wes Neighbors, inside linebacker Joe
Godwin and cornerback Freddie Robins on
are holdover starters and a a fifth, defe , isive
tackle Derrick Slaughter, could be a, key
player for Coach Ray Perkins this season.
Actually, cornerback Vernon Wilkinson,
another member of that class who was in
jured in an automobile crash last April, could
play in 1987 if the NCAA grants him a special
hardship year.
Slaughter, a 6-foot, 245-pounder from Bir
mingham, became important to the defensive
picture when Willie Ryles, a projected start
er, died last Saturday of an acute subdural
hematoma.
Slaughter played linebacker and fullback
in high school. As a redshirt freshman in 1983,
Perkins' first season, he played tight end,
nose guard and fullback for the scout team.
He moved to offensive guard in 1984 before
finding a home at defensive tackle last year.
"They needed depth and I had the versatili
ty to move around," explained Slaughter,
whose career has been slowed by injuries.
Memories of the late Bryant come easily to
Slaughter.
"I remember Coach Bryant's tower like it
was a monument and everybody wanted to go
up in it," he said. "I remember my senior
year in high school people were saying, 'He
must be something,' because I got to go up in
the tower with him.
"My mom always brings that up to me. She
remembers him coming to our house three
times. She said he would always be welcome
there."
The most notable member of Bryant's final
class of recruits is Neighbors, who started 34
games in the past three years and is being
touted as an All-American candidate.

"I'll never forget everything Coach Bryant
did for the university and what he did for
me," Neighbors said.

Shula scored a touchdown with 9:33 remaining in the game to edge No. 9 Ohio State, 16.10.

2-1 in the ninth
LOS ANGELES (AP) Bruce Ruf
fin is enjoying his rookie season.
Ruffin, 7-3, registered his fourth
consecutive victory yesterday with a
combination of ability and good for
tune.
"Everything is going good now and
I'm having fun," the Philadelphia
Phillies' 22-year-old left-hander said
after defeating the Los Angeles Dodg
ers 2-1 with eight innings of five-hit
ball. "Today I just as easily could
have gotten a no-decision. Some
times, you just have to have a little
luck."
Everything seemed to go the Phil
lies' way in the ninth inning, when
they snapped a 1-1 deadlock.
Dave Anderson's error led to the
winning run in the ninth inning, dur
ing which Ruffin left for a pinch
hitter.
Jeff Stone, who reached on the
error, then stole second on a 3-0 pitch
to Milt Thompson and scored when
Von Hayes hit Welch's 0-2 pitch to left
field for the game-winner.
The throw from left fielder Bill
Russell arrived at the same time as
Stone, but the ball was sticking half
way out of the pocket of i catcher Alex
Trevino's glove and it popped loose as
he applied the tag. Stone sustained a
sprained left ankle on the play, but x
rays showed no fractures.
Steve Bedrosian pitched the ninth
inning to earn his 19th save. ,
Bob Welch, 6-10, allowed nine hits
while walking three and striking out
10.
Ruffin retired the first 10 Dodgers,
nine on groundballs, before surren
dering a one-out single in the fourth to
Russell.
The Phillies, who stranded two
baserunners in each of the first four
innings, got their first-inning run on
one-out singles by Thompson and
Hayes, .a walk to Mike Schmidt and
Glenn Wilson's bases-loaded sacrifice
fly. It was the eighth time in their
nine-game homestand that the Dodg
ers were scored upon in the opening
inning.
PITTSBURGH (AP) Eric Davis
hit the first grand slam of his major
league career with two outs in the
ninth inning to break a 5-5 tie and give
Cincinnati 'a 9-5 victory last night
over the Pittsburgh Pirates, the
Reds' fifth straight win and ninth in
10 games.

Buddy Bell walked to load the bases.
Dave Parker struck out and Davis
followed by hitting Robinson's first
pitch deep into left-field seats for his
22nd home run.
Rob Murphy, 2-0, pitched three
shutout innings of two-hit relief.
Pittsburgh built a 4-0 lead in the
first two innings against Tom Brown
ing. Johnny Ray had an RBI single
and Jim Morrison hit a sacrifice fly in
the first. Barry Bonds singled home
two runs in the second.
Parker hit a three-run homer in the
third, his 26th, off Jim Winn.
Mike Diaz hit his ninth homer in the
third to put Pittsburgh ahead 5-3, but
the Reds pulled within a run in the
fourth on Barry Larkin's triple and
Nick Esasky's single. They tied it in
the fifth on Parker's RBI double that
scored Browning, who led off with a
bunt single.
Parker's four RBI gave him eight
in two games.
Astros 7, Cubs 1
HOUSTON (AP) Nolan Ryan
pitched one-hit ball for six innings for
his 250th career victory, and Phil
Garner had four hits and drove in two
runs last night as the Houston Astros
beat the Chicago Cubs 7-1.
Ryan, 9-8, struggled with his con
trol early for the second straight
start, yielding one hit and two walks
in the first three innings and staying
behind the batters. But he struck out
four in that stretch and five for the
game. Charlie Kerfield got his sixth
save with five strikeouts in three
innings.
Garner drove in the first run with a
single in the third, scoring Billy
Hatcher, who walked with one out
and stole second. Glenn Davis fol
lowed with a sacrifice fly, scoring
Jim Pankovits, who walked and took
third on Garner's single. Kevin Bass
singled in Garner, who moved up a
base on the Davis fly.
Garner, 4-for-5 on the night, drove
in a run in the fourth when the Astros
scored three times. Pankovits drove
in the other two runs with a single.
The Astros stole six bases, five in
the first four innings, taking advan
tage of the rookie battery of catcher
Mike Martin, making only his third
Major league start, and pitcher Ja
mie Moyer, making his 11th. .
Moyer, 5-4, entered the game with a
scoreless string of 14 2-3 innings. It
reached 16 2-3, ending in the third. He
