THE PLAIN DEALER. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1984- -5-Di On The Road Again ineligible for 'Jug' 1 DELAWARE, O. (AP) With a little more than two weeks to go, the Little Brown Jug appears to be wide open since On The Road Again is ineligible for the second jewel of pacing's Triple Crown. On The Road Again won the first leg of the Triple Crown, the Cane Pace at Yonkers. The third leg, the Messenger Stake, is scheduled Oct.

6 at Roosevelt Raceway. Wil Kilburger, a spokesman for the Jug, said On The Road Again was ineligible for that race because no nominating fee was paid when the colt was foaled. Kilburger said the Jug permits no supplemental entry fees. On The Road Again raced in the Cane Pace because his owners paid a supplemental entry fee, Kilburger said. The Jug, to be raced over the Delaware (Ohio) County Fairgrounds' half-mile track Sept.

20, will carry a purse in excess of $350.000 this year, Little Brown Jug Society officials announced. It Smith shoots 75, leads qualifiers Del Smith of Medina Country Club shot a 38-37-75 at Firestone Country Club yesterday to lead five area qualifiers into the U.S. Golf Association Seniors national tournament to be held Sept. 17-22 at Birmingham CC in Birmingham, Mich. Other qualifiers were Dick Flockenzier of Westbrook CC (38-38--76); Elbert Shaw of Westfield CC (37-39-76); Roger McManus of Congress Lake CC (38-40--78) and Duane Isham of Portage CC with 38-41-79.

serves as the highlight of the Grand Circuit meeting at the cen- tral Ohio track each year. Andrel strengthened his Jug status with a 1:55 victory in one division of the Prix d'Ete at Blue Bonnet. John Campbell previously had driven the Nero Colt to a triumph in The Adios at the Meadows in 1:54.2 over a sloppy track. Andrel posted a 1:53 winning mile in an elimination of the Meadowlands Pace and lost in the final by a nose to On The Road Again. Billy Haughton, who has driven an unprecedented five Jug winners, will challenge again with Farmstead Fame.

The Bret Han-' over colt won an elimination division of the Cane in 1:58.1, a division of the American-National in 1:56.2 in Chicago and the Battle of Saratoga in 2:01.3 on an off-track. Walton Hanover and Holmes Hanover are expected to be other contenders in the Jug. Walton Hanover, a Big Towner colt, turned in his lifetime record of 1:54 in winning a division of the Gaines Memorial at Vernon Downs. He also won the Gaines final in 1:54.4 for driver Sonny Dancer. He captured an elimination division of The Adios in 1:55.4.

Holmes Hanover, an Albatross colt, finished a head behind On The Road Again in the Cane final. Driver Carl LaCruse also guided him to a victory in the Pennsylvania Sires Stakes at Liberty Bell. Among the other Jug possibilities are Colt Forty-Six, whose 1:50.3 mile in the Review Futurity in Springfield, represents the fastest time ever in harness racing; Vanston Hanover, Troublemaker and Hannart Maple Leaf. Connors, McEnroe advance second set, to which Connors said: "Once a set's over, it's over. You just go on, continue, try to forget about it.

"I can understand where it would have been on his mind, but I wonder what would have happened if he had won the set. Would it have still been on his mind?" Mayer, once ranked as high as fifth in the world but unseeded this year, reached the quarters here for only the second time. In 1982, when he was the sixth seed, he lost to McEnroe in five sets. Against Smid, Mayer was at his best, using his deft touch to move the Czechoslovak around the court and out of position. Smid, who plays one of the most demanding schedules of any player in the world, was never in the contest and appeared sluggish.

Mayotte jumped on top, breaking Wilander's service in the third game of their opening set. But the Swede, his groundstrokes becoming grooved, broke back in the sixth game, then broke again in the 10th game to take the set. Wilander took a 4-1 lead in the second set, only to have Mayotte, a serve-and-volley specialist who always does well in major tournaments, come back and pull within 4-5. But the Swede broke Mayotte's service again in the 10th game and had a 2-0 lead in sets. The two then battled to a tiebreaker, which Wilander breezed through, 7-2.

"I just felt like today I couldn't lose," said Lloyd, who in 1980 had dropped to 356th in the world in the Atari-ATP computer rankings. "It's funny, but I just felt like if I played my best, I would win." After Sundstrom captured the opening set, Lloyd only lost his serve once that coming in the sixth game of the third set. He closed out the match with a backhand cross-court volley, then thrust his fist skyward in victory. The match took nearly seven hours to complete, although the two were on court for only two hours, 10 minutes. There were two rain delays, the first lasting 31 minutes, the second lasting slightly more than four hours.

Because of the rain, most of the day's matches, including a women's quarterfinal meeting between Mandlikova and Bassett, were postponed. The fourth-round confrontation between McEnroe, a three-time winner here at Flushing Meadow. and Green, who had to battle his way through qualifying to reach the main draw, began two hours late because of rain. As in the Lloyd match, the McEnroe-Green contest was interrupted for 30 minutes when it began to drizzle again. McEnroe was magnificent, parrying every thrust that Green could muster, blunting his big serve with excellent returns, using his volleys or groundstrokes to set up an easy winner.

And he made it look so easy that even the victim was impressed. "You're out there on the court watching him hit, he does things so effortlessly," Green said. "I mean he's not a Lendl, sitting back there and booming every ball. He just sort of strokes the ball real nice, and it makes you a little bit more comfortable. "But then later on you realize how easy it is for him and wish you could play like that." RACING BELMONT ENTRIES alc.

Fr Livingston A FROM FIRST SPORTS PAGE In the cradle of Computer Think, he's the whiz kid who plugged into the system and played Donkey Kong with the master program. He's tweedy Alec Guinness, secretly planning the Lavender Hill Mob's next heist. He's the guy who bet the company payroll on an unknown stock and won. It wasn't enough that Landry had 12 rookies on this year's team, the most since the Dirty Dozen of 1975 took the team to the Super Bowl. At least then, he still had Staubach around as the foundation.

Landry bet the Cowboys' future on a guy, Hogeboom, whose resume consisted largely of one half-game in relief of White in the 1982 NFC title loss to Washington. Moreover, White not only was the hand-groomed successor to Staubach, he also entered this season as the second-highest ranked NFL quarterback of all-time, behind only the 49ers' Joe Montana. White was Landry's kind of guy, a company man, who waited his turn patiently until Staubach retired. White was a family man, with a wife and four kids. A businessman, listing oil and gas, real estate a and insurance holdings in his portfolio.

Hogeboom, mainly, was a good ole boy who liked to drain longnecks with the members of the line. And besides, Hogeboom was pushy, lobbying aggressively for: the job. It wasn't quite Clint Longley, the Mad Bomber, who tried to take the job as well as Stau: bach's head into his own hands: in a training camp fight in 1974; But it was close. Hogeboom was the Man with the Golden Gun, all right, but even: the advantage of his top-flight; arm was negated when he hurt; his elbow in the exhibition season. It should be noted here that; Landry hasn't always thrived just: with the straight-arrow Staubach: types.

Any team whose roster included Duane Thomas, Lance: Rentzel, Pete Gent, Hollywood; Henderson, Steve Kiner, Pat- Too: may, Longley, Martin, Johnson: and the Danderoo has exhibited marked tolerance for free spirits as long as they play well Landry gambled that Hoge: boom's arm could cover up fora shaky defense and keep the Boys among the elite in the one category, the big play, at which a team must excel in today's. foot: ball. Result: Hogeboom hit a clubrecord 33 passes in 47 tries (breaking the old mark held by. one Danny White) and, without injured Tony Hill, his best: wide receiver, led Dallas from a 13-0 deficit to its 19th opening-game win i in the last 20 years. The names are changed and the faces are new, but "America's Team" is back.

Seemingly, it has hardly" been A away. AP Here, catch Dallas Cowboys quarterback Gary Hogeboom (14) is not tossing the ball, but merely pitching out to running back Tony Dorsett (not shown) in Monday night's game against the Los Angeles Rams at Anaheim. Hogeboom completed 33 passes in 47 attempts to lead the Cowboys to a 20-13, come-from-behind victory. CSU has to do without a 7-7 center. The Cleveland State University basketball team is going to have to struggle along without a 7-7 center this season.

Manute Bol, who was expected to fill that role for the Vikings, was ruled short of the scholastic requirements for enrollment as a freshman. The towering Bol, who played for the national team in the Sudan, had been taking English courses at Case Western Reserve University. It's a blow to the CSU team, but Coach Kevin Mackey is not despairing. Coming in for their freshman year are 6-9 Gene Miles from Dorchester, and Tyrone Kingwood of Bridgeport, leading scorer in his state last season: And Clinton Smith, who prepped at John Adams before enrolling at Ohio State where he played his freshman year, has transferred from an Arizona junior college. More talent may be on the way as Mackey, a master recruiter, is still on the prowl.

The Vikings, who will play all their home games at cozy Woodling Gym, have Northwestern and Penn State on their schedule. MUCH WANTED Mike Golic, the St. Joe's grad and brother of the Browns' Bob, is Fresno St. edges past CSU, 1-0 By Dale Meggas Cleveland State's soccer team lost its home opener yesterday at Olmsted Falls' Lenau Park, 1-0, to Fresno State, but Viking coach Brian Doyle remained optimistic after the defeat. "We're a very young team," said Doyle.

"This was a good game for us. We've got to be strong. We were a little apprehensive and discouraged in the second half. We just couldn't score." Not scoring was about the only problem CSU had in the first half as the Vikings played excellent fundamental soccer. CSU's downfall was a result of missed opportunities.

On numerous occasions, Viking forwards Anthony Bailey and Paul Hames missed excellent chances to score. Fresno State, concluding a three-game tour of Ohio colleges, capitalized on its best opportunity when Mark Masich concluded a re-start with the games' only goal at 27:14. The Bulldogs, who defeated Bowling Green, 2-1, and were tied by Akron, 1-1, on their seasonopening swing of the Midwest, were "fatigued and a little lackadaisical," according to Fresno State coach Jose Elgorriaga. When asked to compare styles of play of the three Ohio opponents, Elgorriaga said, "All three were similar (in style) with precise passing, but Akron was the most controlled. They are all close." The Vikings, 1-1, play at Illinois-Chicago on Friday and at Wisconsin on Sunday.
