...That does not necessarily mean that he will make it in the big league. In the past 20 seasons, such celebrated Heisman heroes as Notre Dame's Johnny Lattner (1953). Navy's Joe Bellino (1960). Oregon State's Terry Baker (1962) and U.C.L.A.'s Gary Beban (1967) all failed to flourish in the pros. And good as Sullivan is, a few scouts feel that he does not rate as high as a much less heralded passer: Gary Wichard of C.W. Post College...

What the rookies lacked in team play they almost made up in individual talent. Wyoming's Jerry DePoyster punted 55 yds., out of bounds on the Green Bay three; later, he split the uprights with a 22-yd. field goal. U.C.L.A.'s Heisman Trophy winner, Gary Beban, was something of a passing disappointment (three for six, two interceptions), but Massachusetts' Greg Landry hit seven out of 14 and scrambled 29 yds. on a bootleg when he found his receivers covered. In the offensive line, Southern Cal's huge tackle Ron Yary earned at least a draw...

Married. Gary Beban, 21, the thinking man's quarterback who steered the U.C.L.A. Bruins to a Rose Bowl victory in 1966, himself to a Heisman Trophy as the nation's outstanding collegiate football player last year and a reported $200,000 three-year contract with the Washington Redskins; and Kathy Hanson, 21, his college sweetheart; in Alhambra, Calif...

...QUARTERBACK: Gary Beban, 21, U.C.L.A., 6 ft., 195 Ibs. Anybody who gains 5,358 yds. in three seasons of college ball figures to impress the pros; yet the scouts have mixed feelings about Beban. They applaud his "natural poise and confidence" and his "ability to make the big play when it's needed"-but they deplore his lack of height and his preference for rolling out rather than passing from the pocket. A better pro prospect, say some scouts, is Alabama's Ken ("Snake") Stabler, who is 3 in. taller than Beban, completed 60% of his passes...

They call Gary Beban "the Great One" at U.C.L.A., where in a three-year football career he ran for 1,271 yards, passed for 4,087 yards and scored 35 touchdowns in leading the Bruins to 22 victories and two ties in his 29 games. Even in U.C.L.A.'s 21-20 loss to Southern California, now the U.S.'s top-ranked team. Beban passed for 301 yards and two touchdowns, was told after the game by U.S.C.'s superb Halfback O. J. Simpson: "Gary, you're the greatest." Sportswriters and broadcasters agreed. By a slim margin...
