That was enough to get the Bills' goat. "Beating San Diego is the biggest thing in my life," gritted Bills Quarterback Jack Kemp, who was a Charger until Coach Sid Gillman let him go for the waiver price of $100. Bills Defensive Back Butch Byrd also had a personal score to settle with Charger End Don Norton, who boasted publicly that he could beat Byrd on passes any time he wanted to.

...spare his aging stars, Detroit Coach Sid Abel makes full use of an old pro football tactic: free substitution. All other N.H.L. teams operate with three offensive lines, alternate them every 2½min. or so. Abel uses four lines, substitutes every 1½ min. "Play twice as hard for half the time," he tells the players. "The big secret around here is the spirit," says Ted Lindsay. "I'm happy. We're all happy. And we're going to win this thing." They just might, at that...
