NFL Said to Be Considering Overseas Sites for Postseason Exhibitions, Too

The National Football League is getting ready to expand its international operations--at least for exhibition games--several club executives suggested Thursday as the league ended its Arizona meetings.

First, this summer, the NFL will expand its European connection to two games. Soon, it will start playing postseason exhibition games overseas, Jim Finks of New Orleans predicted.

“I don’t know any club that’s against it,” the general manager of the Saints said. “The injury problem is less of a factor after the season than in the preseason. I’m sure the players would enjoy visiting other countries at that time of year. We’ll be overseas a couple of winters from now.”

Said Tex Schramm, president of the Dallas Cowboys, a longtime advocate of international games: “We should be in Australia and Japan every year.”

In this summer’s foreign exhibition games, Miami will play San Francisco in England and Minnesota will play Chicago in Sweden.

On the final day of the NFL’s convention, Commissioner Pete Rozelle made two announcements:

--A league committee will meet with a college football committee later this spring to discuss eligibility and other problems.

--The league, continuing its eight-year battle with Al Davis, expects to face the Raiders in another courtroom presently. “There’s no easy solution to this,” Rozelle said.
