Packers Riding
With BeightoI

Lynn Beightol took on added
stature as a football player yes
terday when the Green Bay
Packers, who selected the Mary
land quarterback last year. did
mot take a quarterback in any
of their three picks in the Ma
|tional Football League draft.
The Packers have been en-
trusting all their quarterback
duties to Tobin Rote this year,
and apparently hope Beightol
will be their No. 2 quarterback
next season.
Beightol was taken In last
years draft because that was
the year his class was graduated.
He is in his fifth year at Mary
land, four Of them on the varsity
as second-stringer.
The Packers have shown a
reckless disregard for money in
lengthy phone calls from Wis
Iconsin to College Park in the
last few days. discussing Beigh-
tolls potential with members of
the Maryland coaching staff.
1t is understood that If they
received assurance Beightol
wanted to play pro bah they
would pass up drafting q quar-
lterback.
Beightol's biggest assets are
passing and punting and OBJ
Iviously that's why the Packers
want him.

Miami Stadium, home of the
former Miami baseball team, in
practice for the Orange Bowl
game. it was decided yesterday
after more phone calls by Coach
Jim Tatum to Florida.
| Tatum was pleased because of
the security the big ball park
with its huge fences affords. Two
years ago the Terps practiced at
a high school field and. although
they had police protection, they
had very little privacy. Okla

versity of Miami, the preferred
site. but this is the Big Seven's
