match was over. The 30 low shooters in the 144-hole tourney qualified to join this year. Thomson, too, made the morning round, played in al most perfect weather, in 68, us ing only 30 putts. Player had to be content with a 72 and was down at the luncheon break. NEW YORK, on Red Schoendienst, the quiet leader who lifted the St.

Louis Cardinals from a sixth-place finish in 1966 to an explosive, runaway victory in the National League pennant race the past season, was named the circuit's Manager-of-the-Year Friday. Schoendienst, whose Cardinals also defeated Boston In a seven-game World Series, drew 257 votes from among the 397 baseball writers and broadcasters who participated in the annual Associated Press poll. Leo Durocher of the Chicago Cubs was second with 119 votes. Cincinnati's Dave Bristol was a distant third with 11. Schoendienst maneuvered his club to the top with a number of strategic moves that included the shifting of Mike Shannon from the outfield to third base.

The manager moved Nelson Briles, a relief pitcher, into the starting rotation in mid-July after ace Bob Gibson was sidelined with a broken right leg. Briles finished with 14 victories. The St. Louis skipper also made effective use of Dick Hughes and Steve Carlton, Player, who has won just about everything in golf, squared the match on the 33rd the rich PGA National tour next year. Cole shot a one-over-par 73 and a 76 Friday for a 572 total.

Hia three sub-par rounds earlier in the tourney a 69, 68, and 71 gave him the necessary cushion to overcome his last-round falter. Gibby Gilbert of Hollywood, was second with 573 and Ron Cerrudo of San Rafael, and Deanne Beman of Washington, D.C., tied for third with 574. Peter Townsend of England fired a sizzling six-under-par 66 Friday for the day's best round and a total of 585 strokes for 14th place. Cole was the youngest man in the tournament. He said he would go from Florida to Australia for the Australian Open, then' back to 'Miami for the $100,000 Doral Open next March.

And it forces us to hold our blockers at the line longer. That gives their great punt returner time to maneuver." That would be Sammy Grezaffi, a 9.6 sprinter who returned one kick 42 yards against Florida.

Miami again will go with its power offense of David Olivo at quarterback, Doug McGee and John Acuff at running backs and Vince Opalsky at wingback. Prime receivers will be split end Jim Cox and tight end Larry LaPointe. Miami is healthy except for giant defensive tackle Hank Urbanowicz who is out with a leg injury. LSU is at full strength. Last year, LSU whipped Miami 10-8.

It was the Hurricanes' last defeat of 1966. They went 7-0-1 the rest of the way. "We couldn't seem to make those crucial third down and short yardage situations then," Shipp said. "We missed five times on third and less than three. If we expect to beat LSU, we'll have to pick up those first downs." To do it, Miami will have to overcome that same old 5-4-2 defense the one that held the Hurricanes five times in 1966.

The Cardinals were tied for first place with Chicago on July 24. However, they went on a 13-3 streak in the next two weeks and forged an eight-game lead.

Headcoach Jack "Cy" McClairen said his team will rely on the pro-type offense. Last year Bethune-Cookman College defeated Allen University 15-0 in Columbia.

McClairen said he is doubtful about a quarterback for todays contest. George King, an All-Conference senior quarterback from Pompano is the regular Wildcats starter, however, Clewis Wright stands a good chance to step in 'as the leading signal caller after he led the locals to a 30-0 victory over Albany State College. the club's seven-game World I I Robert Elder 76-73-74-73-74-70-73-73586 wash Inoton, D.C.

Shepard, 48, spent 25 years in the minors as a pitcher, player-manager and manager until the 1967 season when he' moved up to the majors as pitching coach for the Philadelphia Phillies. Now he's seen a dream come true: Managing a big league club. He succeeds Danny Mur-taugh, who was named interim manager in mid-season after Harry "The Hat" Walker was fired. Mgrtaugh has since gotten a front office job with the Pirates. Shepard, grinning and happy, was at Forbes Field when General Manager Joe L.

A stronger punch on the ground could open up even new and better avenues for the air attack, which has been one of the nation's best.

Peterson issued much the same warnings the week prior to the N. C. State game, but wifh the memory of the fantastic 37-37 tie with Alabama still fresh, few listened. This week, the FSU coach's warnings have fallen on more receptive ears, and with good reason. The Gamecocks, rebounding from a dismal 1-9 season in 1966, ran up three consecutive victories over Iowa State, North Carolina and Duke before finally losing to rugged Georgia another Top Ten member in good standing 21-0.

As Peterson said, South Carolina likes to control the football, and they've got the horses to do it. Fullback Warren Muir, a rugged 197 pounder, and halfback Ben Garnto no small fry at 199 do most of the mail carrying, but quarterback Mike Fair (193) has scored two touchdowns.

So far this season they whipped North Carolina and lost to a pair, of Miami teams, the one from Ohio and the one on Dixie Highway. "I'm not going on what Florida did against LSU," said Pittman. "Florida made too many mistakes and LSU didn't make any. It was one of those days. Florida is solid.

They have plenty of talent and we look for a rough game." Tulane showed quickness on defense against Miami, especially in the secondary where Jim Jancik excells.

There were a lot of outstanding baseball men considered for the job, but in my opinion Shepard can and will do the best job for us." He was given a one-year contract. The Pirates pitching staff failed to live up to expectations in 1967 and the Pirates- favored to win the pennant last spring finished in sixth place.

Brown was asked If he picked Shepard because his pitching experience may help the mound corps. "That was a minor consideration," Brown replied. "If Larry had not the background of pitching, he certainly would still have been the manager." Brown shrugged off a suggestion that Shepard's lack of much major league experience might hurt. "Larry has had a long, varied and successful career in the minor leagues," the general manager said, "and the elements there are the same as in the majors." The same question was put to Shepard. "I don't think the players will hold it against me," he said.

Brown said he and Shepard have held only brief discus-, gions about possible trades to improve the team. "I doubt very much if there will be any world shaking trades," Brown said.

He drew an estimated for his one-year contract this season, as he led the Red Sox from their 1966 ninth-place finish to the American League pennant before losing the World Series to the St. Louis Cardinals in seven games.
