While New Orleans (6-0) was beating Philadelphia 13-6 and Washington (7-0) was manhandling Cleveland 42-17, the Colts and Bengals were remaining the league’s only winless teams by losing big. Buffalo beat Indianapolis 42-6, and Dallas whipped Cincinnati 35 23. New Orleans’ victory was as much for the defense as it was for the offense, which lost the services of quarterback Bobby Hebert with a concussion in the second half. “I figured coming in it would be that kind of game, a physical foot ball game, a hard-hitting defense and a very close game that went down to the wire,” Saints coach Jim Mora said. “I knew that offen sively it would be a struggle.” Minnesota, meanwhile, ended a three-game losing streak with a 34 7 victory 'over Phoenix. In other games, Kansas City clobbered Miami42-7,the Los Angeles Rams beat San Diego 30-24, Houston edged the New York Jets 23-20 and Atlanta hung on for a 39-34 victory over San Francisco. The Los Angeles Raiders were at Se attle in a night game. /port/ court/1 _1 222 N. 44th St. 475-5686 "You can do it all and it's all for you at Sports Courts!" •Racquetball • Aerobics •Basketball ‘Nautilus •Free Weights 'Lounge •Walleyball •Volleyball •Swimming -Steam •Spa *Bikes •Running Track One Week Only!

Minnesota’s amazing run from worst to first got even better Sunday _with an 8-5 victory over Toronto in Game 5 for the American League pennant. It’s the Twins’ second unlikely league championship in five seasons and puts them into the World Series starting next Saturday against either Atlanta or Pittsburgh. The Twins, just as they have done all season, won with a team effort and with Kirby Puckett leading the way. Minnesota rallied from a 5-2 defi cit to tie and won the game with three runs in the eighth. Greg Gagne singled with one out in the eighth but was caught stealing. But Dan Gladden followed with a single and stole second before a walk to Chuck Knoblauch. Puckett, who homercd in the first, then broke a 5-5 tie with a single to right field and the runners moved up on the throw home. Kent Hrbek, in a 1-for-19 slump, followed with a two run single to settle matters. Reliever David West pitched three strong innings for the victory. Carl Willis, another bullpen surprise, got three outs and Rick Aguilera finished for his third save as the Twins won their third AL pennant. They beat the St. Louis Cardinals in 1987 to w in their only World Series and lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1965. It was another postseason disap pointment for the Blue Jays, who lost in the playoffs in 1985 and 1989. Some more sloppy baseball by the Blue Jays enabled the Twins to tie the score with three runs in the sixth inning, chasing knuckleballer Tom Candiotti. Shane Mack led off with a single, stole second and moved to third on Mike Pagliarulo’s hard single. Mike Timlin relieved Candiotti and got Gagne to pop out. Gladden followed with a hard grounder right at third baseman Kelly Gruber. Gruber’s throw home was a little wide and catcher Pat Borders tagged Mack with his bare hand while holding the ball in his glove and was charged with an error. Knobluach took advantage right away with a two-run double into the right-field corner to tie the score. I I ^ REC. v» OPP. THROUGH 10/13/91 RECORO PTS. PVS. TOP 25 REC.

Club president Dan Hergert has asked the more than 2,700 members of the organization to join in the fund raising effort. In a letter to members, Hergert ' sjaid he was contributing $1,000 to get the program going and asked mem bers to raise S300 above their annual contributions for the project. “We’re not asking all the mem bcrs to contribute $300 additional money, only to help the athletic de partment and the football program by contacting friends, neighbors, busi nesses and fans,” Hcrgerl said. “We want this to be a club fund raising project for a special, much needed capital project. If we could have all our members produce $300 additional dollars, we would have more than $800,000, which may be the eventual cost of the project.” Hergcrt also said that members of the Touchdown Club would be on hand at Memorial Stadium gates prior to the Kansas State, Iowa State and Oklahoma games to accept any con tributions toward the drive.
