They improved to4-10 the following, season and to 7-6-1 in 1965. This was to be the year that Christiansen believed the 49ers would make a strong run for it in the Western Division title race. ihs-an optimistic Christiansen looked ahead to the' 66 campaign earlier this summer, he declared were a year older, but in our case thats good because were basically a young dub.

thus, far. the 49ers have fallen far short of being a year smarter. The club has made mistake after mistake in blowing four straight exhibitions.

Brodie apparently was the only one of the' players involved who got his offer on paper. Houston gave him a signed memo confirming the Oilers bid for his services.

Angels Defense Goes on the Fritz By ROSS NEWHAN There is no reason to believe that it wont be as effective this season. Brodie gives the club plenty of punch at quarterback; Ken Willard, starting his second season, is rated by many observers as the best fullback in the league now -that Jim Brown has retired, while John David Crow is one of the loops better running backs.

Gary Lewis and Dave Kopay are two excellent replacements for the latter two men. Dave Parks, Bemie Casey and Monty Stickles stack up as one of the finest pass-catching crews around. Parks led the NFL with 80 receptions last year. BUT IF THE 49ERS are to move ahead, the defense must be shored up even though eight starters have returned. Most of the key injuries suffered by the team in 65 struck the defensive squad and this led to an ineffective pass rush in critical situations and a partial breakdown of the pass defense.

The 49era gambled their No. 1 draft choice last December on a lineman who could provide increased pressure on rivaf passers. He Is Stan Hindman from Mississippi who has been on the injury list thus far after hurt-. ing an ankle in the All-Star game. Hindman, who may see action for the first time against the Rams, is supposed to be a rushing, clawing, spinning tiger with A lot of speed and desire.

The gamble might well pay handsome AS FOR THE DEEP DEFENSIVE BACKFIELD, assistant coach Jim David silys you need four good ones back there because if one cant do the job, theres no way to hide him. Hes standing out there in full sight of the other club and theyll bum him again and again. In veterans Jim Johnson, Kermlt Alexander and Elbert the 49en have three excellent men In the defensive backfield. Johnson has been hurt, but Is about ready to go again. However, when the' other starter, Jerry Mertens, war injured last yea.

rookie George Donnelly, had to be thrown into.the gap. Donnelly showed great promise, but his inexperience hurt the 49ers. However, he doesnt 'figure ttt be burned as much this time' around how that he hat won a regular job. Fullback-Rich Riley, who. day morning and classroom saw a great deal, of action last fall, is oa vacation in toe east and.

All CSCLB records. The men hell dq most of his pitching to, Jack Tucker, Steve Newell and Dave Pike, also were on hand. Tucker is the top return- ing receiver, having caught 27 tosses for a 22-yard plus average last year.

Running at wingback, he averaged over 11 yards per carry rushing. Although he lost his entire defensive line, Reed had an experienced defensive backfield in camp with starters Rick Bryson, Herb Hinsche, Jim Barnett and Rick Naranjo returning.
