THE

MANAGEMENT

MURCHISON SCHRAMM

The Dallas Cowboys are owned by a former 130-pound halfbach


for Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The Cowboys are run by a former sports writer.
This combination has, while nursing along an expansion team
until it became a division champion, proved to be a most effective
combination.
The ex-halfback is Clint Murchison, Jr., the wealthy Dallas
businessman, who, until a year ago, served as president of the club.
He is still chairman of the board.
Texas E. Schramm is the former sportswriter who served as
vice-president and general manager until being named president
last year. , i-
There are few better qualified club presidents than the Cali
fornia native, who has become recognized as one of the most pro
gressive administrators in professional sports.
Schramm holds a BA degree in Journalism from the University
of Texas, acquired between 1939 and 1947 with timeout foi" ^ foiu-
year hitch in the Air Transport Command where he made Captain.
While still in school, Schramm was a member of the sports
staff of the Austin American Statesman and later sports editor.
In 1947 he joined the Los Angeles Rams as publicity director,
and in a 10-year career there, rose to genei'al manager.
He left the Rams to join Columbia Broadcasting System as Assis
tant Director of Sports in 1957 and was there until summoned by
Murchison and Bedford Wynne to guide the Cowboys.
One of his major assets is to be a sound judge of men. It was
Schramm who brought Pete Rozelle into pro football as publicity man
for the Rams.
Aside from the development of the Cowboys, perhaps his major
achievements have been his work with scouting systems, both with
the Rams and Cowboys, and the merger of the NFL and AFL.
It was Schramm and Lamar Hunt, owner of the Kansas City
Chiefs, who handled all of the preliminary negotiations for the
merger.
THE COACH

Tom Landiy is a Texan who has managed to be in his native state


while achieving some of his most noticeable successes.
Born in Mission, Texas, in 1924, Landry was an all-regional high
school fullback there prior to enrolling at the University of Texas in
the fall of 1942.
And last season, again in Texas, he reached another peak. He was
the concensus coach of the year for the National Football League
while leading his Cowboys to the Eastern Division championship
and a narrow miss in the championship game with Green Bay.
He has not limited himself to success in Texas, however, having
displayed his skills in such places as England and New York.
It was in England where he earned his wings as a B-17 pilot
while flying 30 missions with the Eighth Air Force.
And it was in New York, where, in a 10-year career with the
New York Giants, he not only was an all-pro defensive back, but
also first became recognized as a genius at coaching defensive
football.
Landi-y's first stay at Texas was short. After only one semester
he entered the air force.
After his discharge in November of 1945, Landry returned to the
University of Texas and played football three years. His stay there
was marked by some of the strongest teams in Texas' history. He
was co-captain his senior year and second team All-Southwest Con
ference his junior year. Landry was a "\^i^stay ori the
teams which whipped Alabama in the 1948 Sugar Bowl, -7-7 and
then Georgia in the 1949 Orange Bowl, 41-28.
In 1949 Landry joined the old New York Yankees, playing
back, both offensively and defensively. When the two leagues merged
in 1950, Landry began his long association with the Giants ana
began building the solid reputation he holds today.
He was an active player from 1950 through 1953 and player-coach
in 1954 and 1955, handling the Giants' defense. As a
a defensive halfback in Steve Owens' famed umbrella P^ss defense,
and he played it well enough to be named to the All-Pio
team in 1954. In 1956, he retired as a player and became the full-
time defensive coach.
The Giants enjoyed some of their greatest ^ccesses
dry's stay \vith them. They lost a playoff to Cleveland
the Eastern Division championship. In 1956, Landry s fii^st yeai
as a full-time coach, the Giants won the world championship in a
47-7 rout over the Chicago Bears. They won the division t^le in
1958 and 1959, after which Giant head coach, Jim Lee Howell
called Landry "the best defensive coach in the business . ^
Among the many defensive records the Giants set ®
stay with them are these NFL firsts: recovered 27 of f
fumbles in 1950; intercepted 41 passes m 1951. ®
tenure as full-time defensive coach, the Giants fashioned u d3-14 1
record in regular league play, never finishing worse than thud
their division.
Before moving here, he lived in Houston during the off-season
Landi-y received an industrial engineering degree from Univeisitj
Houston in 1952 and was employed there as an engineei.
Landry enters his 19th professional football sea^n this year and
the way his contract reads, he'll still be with the Cov-Boys when he
enters his 26th season. On February 5, 1964, p^wboys ownei, Clm^
Murchison announced he had signed Landry to a contia<^ u• ? .S
through the 1974 season. It was the longest contract in the history
of pro sports, as well as newsmen could determine.
"It's in line with my philosophy that when you get a good man
you want to hold on to him," Murchison explained.
The wisdom of Murchison's decision was borne out during 1966
when the Cowboys stormed to the Eastern Division title and emerged
as the talk of the football world with their multiple offense.
There was one other major accomplishment for Landry in his
home state. . .
It was at TU he met his wife, Alicia, and they were married in
January, 1949, four months before he received a ^chelor of business
administration degree. They have three
Lisa. Young Tom is attending Duke on a football scholarship.

nual league meeting in Miami Beach, Fla. The Cowboys were
to play as a "swing" team, playing every other team one
time during their first season, although listed in the Western

71-yard pass from Johnny Unitas to Lenny Moore gave the
Colts a 14-10 victory (August 19).

For Want of Two
... An NFL Title
To say the Dallas Cowboys arrived in 1966 is gross understate
ment. For not only did the Cowboys ripen in their seventh season to
play above .500 for the first time and to win the Eastern Conference
championship, but the youthful men of blurring speed were two yards
shy of being equal to the best team in football.
Those 72 inches of Cotton Bowl turf were the difference when
the Cowboys, mere toddlers in the world of championship football, met
Green Bay, veterans of blue chip activity, for National Football
League supremacy.
The score was 34-27 and when it was over, Green Bay had won
the right to play in the first Super Bowl, but Dallas had won some
thing, too—the respect of every football enthusiast in the country.
The Cowboys won that by shaking off the golden chance to choke
after the Packers had forged a 14-0 lead with less than four minutes
of the game gone, and coming back to carry the game to the wire.
Green Bay struck 76 yards after the opening kickoff with Bart
Starr firing 17 yards to Elijah Pitts for the TD, Don Chandler con
verting.
The prematm-e ho-hums thickened when on the kickoff, Jim Gra-
bowski picked up Mel Renfro's fumble at the 18, and ran in for a
second touchdown.
But before the quarter was over, Dan Reeves had climaxed a 65-
yard march with a three-yard touchdown burst, Don Perkins had
skipped 23 yards for another and Danny Villanueva had converted
twice to tie it.
Starr cranked up again, this time hitting Carroll Dale with a 51-
yarder, for another score to nullify Villanueva's 11 and 32-yard field
goals and leave Dallas back by one.
The ho-hums had rebirth when the Packers again jumped on top
by 14 with Starr connecting with Boyd Dowler from 16 yards out and
Max McGee from 19 yards away. It was 34-20 with 5:20 in the game,
after Bob Lilly blocked Chandler's fifth extra point try.
The Cowboys struck quickly with Don Meredith reaching the
speeding Frank Clarke with a 68-yard scoring pass with 4:08 to go.
When Chandler was forced to punt and when the ball went but
16 yards and out of bounds on the Green Bay 47, the Cotton Bowl
went goofy. There was 2:59 to play, and a possible tie and sudden
death playoff was in the offing.
Meredith hit Clarke for 21 to the 26. Perkins got four to the 22.
Meredith's pass to Clarke was incomplete, but interference was called
and the ball was placed on the two with 1:52 left. Reeves ran to the
one, but offsides against the Cowboys put the ball back on the six.
Meredith's pass to Reeves was incomplete, but the next one to
Pettis Norman reached the two yard-line. It was fourth and coal at
the two with 1:14 to go.

70
Meredith rolled out, was chased by Dave Robinson and finally
caug"ht. But Don spied Bob Hayes and threw. The ball was picked off
by Tom Brown in the end zone and the Cowboys were thwarted in
their bid to complete one of the all-time comebacks.
". . . it was the most dramatic championship game in history,"
said George Strickler, the sports editor of the Chicago Tribune who
has seen them all.
"... if ever a team attained tremendous stature in defeat, it was
Dallas," said columnist Ai-thur Daley.
"Dallas is by far the best team weVe played all year," said a
Packer player.
The Cowboys figured there would be another day, hopefully this
season.
