...eight times because his receivers were unable to cut properly on the icy field (something the CBS TV cameras never showed). Yet in thelast 5 min., as Dallas led 17-14, Starr coolly, carefully marched his team 69 yds., then took the ball across himself in the final 16 sec. for the touchdown that earned the Packers nearly $10,000 a man and a crack at still another $15,000 in the Super Bowl...

...great advantage over Oakland is on defense. The Packer "front four," led by All-Pro End Willie Davis, is one of the strongest in history-although the Raiders boast some fearsome pass rushers of their own, notably Tackle Tom Keating, a 247-pounder who runs 40 yds. in 5.3 sec. in his football gear. Therein lies a certain danger.

...sportswriters liken the line play to an "elephants' ballet." The elephant part is accurate. The Los Angeles Rams' "Fearsome Foursome" weighs about 1,100 Ibs. between them. Left End David ("Deacon") Jones, 29, stands 6 ft. 5 in., weighs 260 Ibs., and runs the 100 in 10 sec. flat. The Rams' right end, Lamar Lundy, 32 (6 ft. 7 in., 260 Ibs.), appears briefly in the movie version of In Cold Blood as a motorist who offers a lift to two hitchhiking murderers: they take one look at him and turn down the ride. Right Tackle Roger...
