In Illinois Memorial Stadium in Champaign, IIL, 12.877 fans showed up as St.

Louis beat Chicago ifl-7 Sat-J Officials estimated the game would have drawn 40,000 fans without a strike. The Oilers beat the New York Giants Saturday night before 15,501 fans, one-third of what they drew a year ago. And in Washington Friday night, 16,4031 fewest ever to see a pro football game in 3 7 4-seat RFK watched New England beat the Redskins 21-16 There were a couple of good crowds, too. The New Orleans Saints, who lost to Pittsburgh 26-7 Saturday night, attracted 45,329 Gilliam Sparks Steelers Past Saints Bv AUSTIN WILSON NEW ORLEANS Pittsburgh quarterback Joe Gilliam was the in the Steelers victory over New Orleans Saturday night, said Saints John North. But Gilliam has toiled in the shadows of the Terns Bradshaw and Hanratty for three he felt his timing was off.

North agree. like to make he said. it might have been a different ball game without Gilliam in there." Gilliam picked the rookie Saints secondary apart, hitting Coach 11 of 19 passes for 158 yards. His one interception came when Saints second-sear man Mike Fink was in the game for a brief spell. Fink had to go way back in the corner to pick off a bomb intended for first- round draft choice Lynn Swann.
