TUESDAY, OCTOBER 24. 1967 PAGE 1 Sports Local News Financial Classified SUN BULLET FIVE COLTS TO PUT VET BERRY ON OPENS COAST BAYS Nit ENGLISHMAN NEW COACH i mmmmJ isT-'v' Tf Gordon Jago, 35, Due To Arrive Here In December By KEN MGRO Gordon Jago, a 35-year-old Englishman, is the new coach of the Baltimore Bays. Jago appointment to a one- year contract was announced last night by Bays officials shortly after they learned the story had leaked out in England.

Originally, the Bays were planning on making the announcement today immediately after Jago resigned his current position as coach and assistant manager of Fulham, a British i rri I 0 I A 4 First Division team. Coincidence Arises Thus, Jago joins the Bays al-, most the same way that former 11 1 A WAIVER LIST Shoulder Injury Idles End; Orr May Be Reactivated By CAMERON C. SNYDER Raymond Berry will be put on waivers with an injured nota tion, and if he's ready, Jimmy orr will be activated. Berry's injury, sustained in the 20-to-20 tie with the Vikings at Minnesota Sunday, has been officially diagnosed as a dislocated left shoulder. He will be sidelined at least four weeks and probably six.

Berry's injury is similar to the one that forced Orr to the sidelines a league opener against the Atlanta Falcons. Haymond Not Ready Coach Don Shula wouldn't say whom he would activate if Orr's shoulder still wasn't well enough for action. Alvin Haymond, Shula says, still hasn complete use of his injured shoulder. If Orr is activated and can play, Willie Richardson probably will be moved to Raymond's split left end side with Orr going back to the right side. Shula said he had thought of moving Richardson to the left and using Lennie Moore at the right side, but now, in case Orr isn't ready, Alex Hawkins would be in Berry's spot because Wil lie has been doing a real good job on the other side.

Shula has been doing a good job of juggling his personnel all season. Defense Main Concern When an injury crops up, he has a good replacement, as in the case of Orr. a regular before his injury, now coming back as a replacement for Ber ry, also a regular. Berry's loss hurt this ball club, but Shula's main concern is getting the defense back on the ball, particularly the defen sive line. "I am still looking for the best man at left end," he said yesterday.

"We haven't been satisfied with any of the three who have played there. I guess we 11 have to go with whichever one looks best among Lou Michaels, Roy Hilton and Andy Stynchula. Weakness In Rush Game films showed a weak ness in -the Colt rush. However, the weakness was not first ef fort but second effort. The Colt front four got good penetration then couldn't or wouldn't do anything about it as Viking quarterback Joe Kapp moved to right or left or front or rolled out with plenty of time to throw.

Of course, this put the pres sure of defensive backfield and this unit wasn't up to the task. Several times when there was good pressure by the line, the secondary was running around like a chicken with its head cut off. There is one bright note: The Colts haven't won a game in their last two outings, but they haven lost a game all season. It was obvious the Colts wer en't prepared for a passing Viking team. After all, the Vikings com pleted only two of eleven passes in their victory the previous (Continued, Page 4, Col.

Millward was fired in late August but was allowed to remain on the ob until the end of the season. One week before the second play-off game against Oakland, the news broke on Millward's dismissal After hurried consultation, the Bays still decided to stick with their coach until after the final match which the Bays lost, 4-2.

"Gordon is the coach I had in mind when I left for Europe last month," said Bays' general manager Clive Toye. "After seeing and talking to others I became even more certain that Gordon was the man we needed at this stage of our development." Best In Europe Jago "is a Droteee of Ron Greenwood who manages West Ham United and is considered by Tove and other British soc cer people as the best coach in Europe. Toye said Jasro would be in Baltimore shortly before Christ mas, ine new coach will meet later in the week with Dennis jVio'llet who served as player-assistant coach for the Bays last season. Early next month. Jaeo is scheduled to journey to Sweden to meet with Dan Ekner, the Bays director of player personnel.

But for the Bullets, the Pacific shores have been a barren wasteland of broken dreams. Last season was typical of the Bullets' luck once they crossed the Great Divide. Baltimore tried three different coaches and still managed to win only one of eight contests against Los Angeles and San Francisco The odds have been better for the good-looking girls hanging around Schwab Drugstore hop ing to hook a movie talent scout.

First Test With Seattle Tonight Gene Shue and his intrepid band of basketballers begin another gold rush in Portland, where they'll tangle for the first time with the new Seattle Supersonics. The Bullets will then play contests in San Diego, San Francisco and Los Angeles before beading east again. Shue realizes another disastrous visit to the West Coast could end the season for the Bullets before it has really started. And he also recognizes the fact that his ball club must fatten up on the Western Division teams this season, particul arly the two expansion teams- Seattle and San Diego, if Balti more hopes to-be a play-off contender this winter. Sharman Seeks Shooters Even the thought of playing San Francisco and Los Angeles is no longer a frightening pros pect.

The Warriors, of course, are playing this season without Rick Barry, the league's top scorer in 1966 who defected to Oakland of the rival American Basketball Association. Warrior coach Bill Sharman is also hunting around for shoo ters to replace Paul Neumann and Tom Meschery, both lost in the expansion draft. Los Angeles' dynamic duo of Jerry West and Elgin Baylor has lost half its punch by an injury to West's shooting hand which will sideline the All-Pro guard indefinitely. Rookie coach Bill van Breda Kolff suffered another shock when the Army grabbed his high-scoring forward Jerry Chambers. "If we play the same kind of ball we did in the first two games (beating New York and losing to Boston), we'll win on the coast," Shue said hopefully before beginning his cross-country journey yesterday.

Difficult For All "I know that going out and playing in Los Angeles "and San Francisco has been extremely difficult for almost every team, not only the Bullets," the coach added. "It's not only the beautiful climate but the three-hour time difference that affects the players. Take this trip for example. We'll get out to Portland at 9.30 P.M. which is really 12.30 A.M..

in Baltimore. But the players won't go to sleep then. They will stay up until about midnight and get up seven or eight the next morning. It takes two or three days to get acclimated to the time difference." Shue at least had the advantage of seeing all four West (Continued, Page 5, Col. 3) N.B.A.

YALE LINEMAN ON CRASH DIET Tully Reduces From 279 To 230 To Play Tackle New York, Oct. 23 UP) Intro ducing the fat football player's diet, as created by tackle Paul Tully of Yale. Of course, neither Tully nor his wife, Heidi, recommend it. However, the 6-foot Tully was almost as wide as he was tall at 279 pounds last spring when he began his and he went into last Saturday's game against Columbia at 230.

"I can't recommend it because it's too he said. "No doctor would recommend it either." One Meal A Day The secret is to eat only one meal a day but what a meal. Tully goes without food all day until. 9 P.M. when he comes home and wolfs down "three or four pounds of steak, a head of lettuce and all the coffee and tea I can drink.

"I'm a glutton" he admits Tully has been bouncing up and down on the scales for years He weighed from 218 to 250 in high His weakest. moments, he finds, come around midnight when food enters his thoughts right along with his studies. He would get up and gobble down six or seven sandwiches. That's why he chose 9 P.M. for his meal.

He can study now on a full stoniach. Quit Smoking He doesn't even eat before a game now, and he quit smoking, too. "I like to lose another 10 pounds and maybe then I'll try for 199," he said, perhaps a bit too optimistically. 1 I Losing the pounds has in creased my speed 300 per cent.
