Plunkett Debut Marred by Patriots Loss to Vikings
Heisman winner Jim Plunkett played sparingly in his New England debut as the Patriots fell 17 10 to the Minnesota Vikings in an exhibition.

The Vikings received the field goal from Fred Cox and short runs from Jim Lindsey and Dave Osborn. Also noted: Marine Pvt James McClendon, son of Mr and Mrs Floyd D McClendon of Stamps Ark, graduated from recruit training at the San Diego depot.

Chiefs Prospects for 1970 Season Highlight Shifts
The Chiefs face a pivotal 1970 season with aging stars and new talent. Hank Stram reassesses use of Lenny Dawson while integrating Mike Livingston. Ed Podolak leads a bruising run game alongside Wendell Hayes and Morris Stroud. Elmo Wright debuts as a wide receiver with Otis Taylor. Line changes threaten Holub’s spot as Rudnay settles at center. Defensive leadership from Jerry Mays will be missed but Buck Buchanan could move outside. Secondary remains stable with Robinson and Marsalis. Strong special teams with Stenerud and Wilson.
