The Eagles have an edge in championship game-experienced players, with six. They are center and linebacker Chuck Bednarik, a member of Philadelphia's last title team in 1949; quarterback Norm Van Brocklin and defensive back Don Burroughs who played at Los Angeles; end Jerry Relchow and guard Stan Campbell, once with Detroit, and defensive back Bobby Freeman, a former Packer, who also played with Cleveland.

Defensive back Jesse Whittenton has a pulled leg muscle. The clash of the Packers, Western Division title winners, and the Eagles, champions in the Eastern Division, presents a paradox.

The Packers have been a strong running team. The Eagles have had poor success in stopping that kind of an attack. Philadelphia has featured a high-powered aerial game. Pasi defense has been a Packer weakness. Green Bay scored three times on long passes to defeat the Rams last weekend, proving they have an aerial attack, but Lombardl said the Eagle pass defense "perhaps is the best in the league right now." Only 11 players on the two squads have previous title game experience.

Five of them are Packers. GREEN BAY, Dec. 21 Bay coach Vince Lombardl said today wounds and weather may prove a factor by the time his Packers meet the Eagles in Philadelphia Monday for the National Football League championship. But Lombardl also made it clear the factors would not be excuses. "The game is the boys'," he said, "it's up to them to get themselves up for it.

They've got plenty of incentive." Players on the winning team will receive about $6000 each, and those on the losing team about $1000. Lombardl commented as the temperature stood, at 12 degrees this afternoon, and the practice field was swept by a stiff northwest wind. "That makes It tough to keep the players sharp In practice," the coach said. Looking at his Injury list, Lombardl found plunging fullback Jim Taylor "pretty banged up." He has leg and shoulder problems. OFFENSE McDonald.

"We know that it is possible under our present structure, but it is not for me. I want to do it above board." Edward A. Turville of St. Petersburg, first vice president of the U. S.

Lawn Tennis Association, said "I'm pleased they are turning pro. The day an individual feels he should be able to make his living out of amateur tennis that is the day he should either turn pro or turn in his racket. interest in the USLTA is not in two players but in the 6.5 million who play for. MacKay hopes to accumulate a nest egg and go into business after three years. MacKay and Buchholz go on tour with Pancho Gonzales, Lew Hoad, Andres Gimeno of Spain and another player yet to be selected.

Kramer has sought Nicola Pletrangeli and Orlando Slrola but both Italians now seem bent oo-remaining amateur after the Davis Cup matches against Australia in the challenge round next week. The new pro tour plays in Honolulu January 6 and opens the stateside circuit January '12 at Portland, Oregon. The troupe has two dates in St. Louis, Buchholz home town, January 28 and February 12. It also plays in Dayton, Ohio, MacKay's home, January 24.

The departure of MacKay and Buchholz, who carried the singles assignments of this year's Davis Cup team, leaves future prospects slim. The team next year may have to rely on two youngsters of this year's squad Chuck McKinley of St. Louis. 19, and Dennis Ralston, of Bakersfield, Cali fornia, 18.

"That was the stretch where we didn't rebound on their board and they got four rebound baskets. It took us right out of there." "We ran real well. It's 'the best we've run this year against Boston." Wolf's problem of finding a consistent forward to pair with Tubman still hasn't resolved itself. Mike Farmer started against the Celtics Friday, played a good first half, then "didn't get too much done in the second." Larry Staverman again sat out. The schedule maker has been extremely kind to the Royals this week, giving them four straight off-days at home, including Christmas Eve, before they return to action Christmas night here against the Petroit Pistons, the club they'd like to beat the most, and, in fact, the club they have to beat if they want playoff money.

Detroit has taken all four regular season meetings with the Royals this year. Charley gave his club a holiday from basketball yesterday and today, ordering practices Friday and Saturday. The Royals will need the rest. Beginning Sunday, they play 10 games In 12 days, only four of them at home. RAMBLER BY WILL GRIMSLEY SYDNEY, Dec.

21 UP) Promoter Jack Kramer today signed two of Uncle Sam's top tennis stars-Barry MacKay and Earl (Butch) Buchholz--and ridiculed charges that he was a wrecker of Davis Cup fortunes. "MacKay and Buhholz knew they had contracts with me regardless of whether they won or lost in the Davis Cup." Kramer said. "Instead of putting pressure on them in the interzone finals, this should have made them more relaxed knowing their future was secure." A Sydney Telegraph had said tampering by Kramer may have contributed to the Americans' surprise loss to the Italians at Perth. Similar pro offers to stars are blamed for Australia's loss of the Davis Cup In 1958 and the United States defeat in 1959 when Alex Olmedo was the target, the paper added. "If they want to blame me for these setbacks let them my back is strong and my skin tough," Kramer said, "but it is stupid reasoning." Kramer signed MacKay and Buchholz to agreements promising each at least $50,000 In three years.

They launch their pro careers December 31 at Christchurch, New Zealand, as part of a six-man troupe playing a world series roundrobin for a $125,000 purse. The two American aces took sharp slaps at the amateur game after coming to terms with Kramer a few hours after the promoter flew in from Los Angeles. "I feel good for the first time," said Buchholz, who at 20 Is youngest player ever to join the tour. "We have been taught to be honest and It is always a very uncomfortable and dirty feeling for us to take money Tinder the table as we do as amateurs. "What makes It worse Is that amateur tennis authorities know these things are happening and they close their eyes to them.

I am thrilled to be a pro and play against best players of world." MacKay, 25, a University of Michigan graduate, said he believes pro tennis offers the only realistic avenue for a person bent on playing the sport on a big-time competitive basis. "Technically, a person wishing to devote himself entirely to tennis as I do Proposal Rejected LONDON, Dec. 21 cpv The House of Commons today rejected Dr. Edith Summerskill's proposal to outlaw professional boxing in Britain by vote of 120-17.

Florida Ace Misses Drill For Gator Tilt GAINESVILLE, Dec. 21 vp Quarterback Larry Llbertore missed Florida's football practice today but Coach Ray Graves said Llbertore should be ready to play- against-Baylor -in the Gator Bowl game, December 31.

Llbertore hurt his left leg when he and Lindy Infante collided in a pass defense drill Tuesday. X-rays showed no broken bones. Trainer Sam Lankford said Libertore had only a twisted ankle. With Llbertore, the flashy runner, missing, offensive work on the practice field featured the passing of Bobby Dodd Jr. and Tom Batten.

Infante was outstanding as a pass receiver. About three-fourths of the drill was devoted to offense but what little time was given to defense showed the varsity at its peak. Interior line-men throttled Baylor running plays and the secondary picked off passes consistently. Walt Hickenloop-er, a defensive halfback specialist, was top man on interceptions. DAY DINNER Jr.

I6th and Scott Sli. i Westwood Wullenweber Motors 1044 Harrison Ave. 1 BY JIM SCHOTTELKOTTE Enquirer Reporter National Basketball Association publicity chief Haskell Cohen is calling 'Oscar Robertson "the most complete basketball player ever to enter the league." Small wonder. A glance at the latest league statistics, which include games of last Sunday, show the Big In the top five In tjhree of the league's top five categories. He was third In scoring with a average, the best mark ever by a guard in the pro ranks; second in field goal percentage with a .176 mark and the leader in assists with an average of 8.8 a game.

With an .840 mark in free throw percentage, he is just a shade out of the top five In that category and has grabbed more rebounds than any forward on his own club, trailing only the two plvotmen, Phil Jordon 8nd Wayne Embry. Oscar had another of his "complete" games against the Celtics Tuesday, scoring 28 points, picking off an individual high for himself this season of 18 rebounds and getting 10 ssslsts. Still the Royals couldn't pull out the game, even with Jack Twyman provid- Papers Rumor Charger Move SAN DIEGO, Den. 2i cT) The Los Angeles Chargers of the American Football League are ready and willing to transfer their franchise to San Diego, sports editors of the San Diego Union and the Evening Tribune said today. Gene Gregston, executive editor of the Tribune, and Jack Murphy, editor of the Union, said their Information is true even though the.Chargers' management would likely deny it for policy reasons.

Gregston said that the Chargers "have learned In one season that Los Angeles has been saturated beyond sensible proportions with sports," and that Barron Hilton, majority owner, and Sid Gillman, general manager-coach, favored moving to San Diego over other possible choices Seattle and Atlanta.

Bear Fans Hang Coach In Effigy CHICAGO. Dec.

21 (1'PI) Owner-coach George H.il;is of the Chicago Bears received the dubious honor of a losing coach today-he was hanged in effigy. The affair took place outside of Wrigley Field, where a small group of irate fans, incensed over three straight defeats to end the season, also bore placards reading "Halas to Dallas," and "Dear Santa, give us a new coach." They advanced a five point program asking for a "young" head coach, better drafting, new plays, big spending, and new spirit for 11. Other suggestions were for adoption of orange home uniforms, a Bears band, cheer leaders, and half time entertainment spectacles.
