TONIGHT GALES CLASH HER AND REDSKINS Powerful Lancaster 11 To Help Coshocton Open Another COL Grid Season Aaron and Sievers Will Try to Sew up Home Run And RBI Tit es Tonight "PWSSiuAl ft. v. 3An uv' Ti 'wL Vt PAGE 10 COSHOCTON, Broadcast Browns Games while making lots of yardage for the home team. Coach Rex Hoon plans to start Pat Johnson and George Milligan at the ends; Wilbur or Walter Jones and Denny Kempt at the tackles; Wayne Dunlap and Jim Shaw, guards; Tom Hall, center; Jim Jones, quarterback, Brent Os-born and Steve Simmons, halfbacks, Larry Stephens, fullback. Butch Bell will go in on defense for Hall.

Osborn and Simmons are both slowed down by leg hurts but are expected to be able to play most of the game unless they are hit, hard on the injured places. Osborn is still favoring the ankle hurt in the Mt. Vernon game and Simmons is handicapped by a charley horse above his knee. Some of the other boys are limping with bumps and bruises but probably will forget all about them tonight when the opening whistle blows at 8 o'clock. Coach Peterson is expected to start Pete Hart and Mike Clay-pool, ends; Jim Thrust and Don Anderson, tackles; Jim Tippie and Howard Lynch, guards; Don Ross, center; Noll, Friesner, Maddux and Baughman in the Officials for the game will be Al Hartman of Lisbon, Ralph Wolt-jen of Newark and William Zink of Zanesville.

Other area games tonight are Carrollton at Newcomerstown and Dover St. Joseph at Millersburg. Saturday afternoon Roscoe plays at Junction City and Saturday night West Lafayette plays at Tuscarawas, Coshocton freshmen play Saturday morning at Ideal football weather today added to the enthusiasm for tonight's Central Ohio League opener at the Coshocton gridiron where the, Redskins will attempt to score their first home victory of the season. Lancaster's Golden Galea come to town with a reputation of being a good team. The Gales have won twice and before the season started experts ranked them with Zanesville and Newark as favorites for the COL title.

Coach Larry Peterson has a number of veterans and a huge line along with half a dozen speedy backs. Lancaster rolled over Logan 47-7 and then had trouble last week winning from Ironton 20-13. In that game Larry Baughman, driving fullback, scored all three touchdowns and is now averaging 11.5 yards for each time he carried the ball. Paul Friesner is averaging 11 yards, Don Maddux 6.3 yards and Mike Noll, quarterback, 3.4. Fris-ner and Maddux are the regular halfbacks.

Phil Hazelton, Bill Ridenour and Don Clark, have marks of 6.3, 3.7 and 3.4 respectively. Noll, in addition to traveling 61 yards on the ground, has attempted five passes and completed two for 63 yards. Friesner and end Jim Smith have caught the passes. The Gales have pijed up 693 yards in two games, averaging 8.1 yards every time they tried to advance the ball. However, a big percentage of the yards came in the opening rout of Logan and the Redskins are convinced they can stop the Gales it shoot the works tonight to try (o nail down the only two major batting titles still up for grabs on the final end of the major league baseball season.

Aaron, the star Milwaukee Braves outfielder, already has clinched the National League nms-batted-in title with. 132 and leads Ernie Banks of the Chicago Cubs in the home run derby, 44 to- 43. The Braves have three games left to play as do the Cubs. Sievers, the "poor man's Mickey Mantle," has all but clinched the home run and runs batten in titles in the American League. Williams, Musiel Top Batters The big Washington outfielder has 41 homers, three more than Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox, and 112 RBIs, eight more than runner-up Vic Werfz of the Cleveland Indians.

Williams and Stan Musial already have locked down the batting titles in their respective leagues. Williams hitting .386, has a 21-point lead over Mantle, who will be rested until the opening of the World Series next Wednesday. Musial, given the final three days of the season off, is batting .351 and for all practical purposes has won the NL title. Willie Mays of the New York Giants is his closest opponent with a .333 mark. The 20-game winner's circle figures to be a particularly exclusive club this year with only two already in and another with a chance to make it.

Warren ISpahn of the Braves has won 21 for the only NL pitcher to reach that magic figure, while Billy Pierce of the Chicago White Sox, also a lefty, is the only AL pitcher. Bunning Has Chance Right-hander Jim Bunning of the Detroit Tigers, who is scheduled to start against the Kansas City Athletics tonight, can join the circle with a win. His mark is 19-8. Tonight's other AL action finds Cleveland at Chicago and Baltimore at Washington and the Yanks in Boston for a day game. In the NL, it's Brooklyn at Philadelphia, Cincinnati at Milwaukee and Chicago at St.

Louis, all night games. Rookie Bill Harrell with a triple and single paced the Indians to a 2-1 victory over the Athletics in a night game and Frank Boiling's single enabled the Detroit Tigers to beat the White Sox, 3-2, in Thursday's only other action. The Tigers need only one more win to insure themselves of a first division berth for the first time since 1950. National League W. L.

Denver pounded four Buffalo pitchers for 18 hits and a 13-9 victory Thursday night to take a 3-0 lead in the best-of seven-game series. Buffalo represents the In ternational League, also a triple-A circuit. Manager Ralph Houk's Bears have had too much of everything in this little world series mismatch.

Denver, a New York Yank farm club, simply has the advantage in every department-pitching, fielding and especially hitting. Houk will start righthander Zack Monroe '(16-10) in Saturday's fourth game at Buffalo, while Cavarretta will counter with either Glenn Cox 02-5), a righthander, or lefthander Fred Hahn (9-10). Denver won Thursday night's game with six runs in the last three innings, after Buffalo had taken a 9-7 lead. Most Ohio College Grid Teams Play This Week End By-JOE SARGIS Unittd Press Sports Writer Hank Aaron, tuning up for the World Series, and Hoy Sievers, tuning up for a big pay raise, Hayes Says Bucks As Good as 1955 Champion Team COLUMBUS (UP) "As good as the 1955 team that went unbeaten in Big Ten play" is the way Ohio Stale Football Coach Woody Hayes sums up his Buckeyes for 1957. A squad relatively untried in combat, the Bucks open their season Saturday here against Texas Christian as 13 point favorites.

Meanwhile, TCU's publicist, Jim Brock, warned that the Horned Frogs are a better team than their opening 13-13 ti with Kansas last week indicated. Hayes wound up a practice session Friday by sending his squad through a light workout in which the players didn't even wear pads. Hayes has shied away from evaluating his current crop of players up until now, but he apparently believes he has them pegged. "I think this bunch right now is every bit as good as the 1955 team, I sure do," he said. "And that 1955 team was unbeaten in the league and gave us our second straight Big Ten title," Hayes appeared most convinced about his second team, and said he didn't think there was any doubt "but what it's better than the 1955 second team." Superior In Other Way Although this year's team has no Cassadys, Parkers, Machin-skys or Vargos, Hayes figures his squad is superior in every other way to what he had in 1955.

Summarizing his squad, Hayes said Russ Bowermaster and sophomore Jim Houston are a better pair at left end than Bill Michael and Chuck Zawacki of the 1955 team. And Leo Brown at right end today is a better player than he was in 1955 when he teamed with Fred rated only a shade better than Tom Morgan, who teams with Brown now. Hayes gave the edge at quarterback to Frank Kremblas and Andy Okulovich over Frank Ellwood and Lyn Theis of 1955. And he rates Galen Cisco and Joe Trivi-sonno over Don Vicic and Cisco of '55. At right half he figures Dick LeBeau and Don Sutherin even with 1955's Jim Roseboro and Jerry Harkrader while Don Clark and Joe Cannavino are only slightly behind Cassady and Cannavino of '55.

Hayes indicated the rest of the positions balanced out about even with the corresponding 1955 spots.

SEPT. 27, 1957 PAGE 10 UCLA and Illinois Open Big College Week End Tonight By JOHN GRIFFIN United Press Sports Writsr A toss-up battle between UCLA and Ifinois tonight opens and sets the keynote for a big week end of college football in which intersec-tionai games will dominate the gridiron menu. Ilinois expects only limited service from Injured fullback Jack Delveaux and center Joe Wendry-hoski, but displayed sharp passing in workouts. UCA is anxious to beat the Ilini for the first time in four tries, dating back to a 45-14 rout in the '47 Rose Bowl game.

The two leagues that clash In the Rose Bowl will resume warfare Saturday with Minnesota favored by 13 points over Washington, Michigan by 14 points over Southern California, and Northwestern even money against Stanford in this week's nationally-televised game. The Big Ten teams and the top eastern teams will be making their season debut this week, seven days later than most teams in the other sections. But national champion Oklahoma, an impressive winner last week over Pittsburgh, will be idle. Here's a capsule survey of some of Saturday's other top games: Intersections! Army a 19-point favorite over once-beaten Nebraska; Syracuse, rated one of the East's best despite the loss of Jimmy Brown; Ohio State favored by 13 over a Texas Christian team held to a tie by Kansas; Georgia Tech, ranked No. 3 nationally, expected to prove its class by 13 over the SMU team that beat California; Pittsburgh a six point pick to rebound from the Oklahoma rout by beating Oregon; Iowa a top heavy choice over Utah State; Oregon State eight over Kansas and Texas six over Tu-lane.

Non-League Purdue picked by one point over a Notre Dame team anxious to make folks forget last year; Texas the nation's No. 2 team, a prohibitive choice under the lights against Texas Tech; Cornell by two over Colgate Baylor six points over Houston; mighty Navy 21 over William Maryr Pen State 14 over arch rival Pennsylvania; West Virginia six over Virginia Tech, and Arkansas 13 over Tulsa.

No. 647, 1 7. By BILL HENRY COLUMBUS (UP) All but four of Ohio's 35 football playing colleges see action this weekend with seven intersectional tilts heading the menu. The dissenters are three state entres in the President's Conference, Case Tech, John Carroll and Western Reserve, all Cleveland schools, and Otterbein, which takes a week off after opening with a 19-6 win over Ohio Northern. Most Ohioans will have their eyes and ears glued on Columbus where Ohio State's "new look" Buckeyes meet Texas Christian University in their lid-lifter Saturday.

Coach Woody Hayes says Ohio State will depart from their "ground hugging" play of the past two years and throw the ball. It should be an interesting afternoon. Other inter-state battles shape up as Capital meets Northern Michigan; Central State plays Morgan: Cincinnati travels to Wichita; Dayton is at home to Richmond; Miami goes to Western Michigan and Youngstown takes on Tennessee Tech tonight, A Top Ohio Game One of the top Ohio clashes is at Cincinnati where Bowling Green last year's Mid-American Conference champs, meets Xavier University. The Golden Flashes warmed up for the game last week by pasting Baldwin Wallace 60-7 while Xavier beat Kent State 13-7, At Wooster, one of Ohio's oldest Jockey Denies Race Fix Charge CINCINNATI (UP) Jockey Jimmy Ring today denied "attempting to fix a race" and said he would appeal his suspension by the Kentucky State Racing Commission. Declaring he was innocent, Ring said "I didn't have anything to do with this fixed race." Ring, 19, Covington, and George Steincman, Louisville, were rulled off the Kentucky Raceway and other tracks after they allegedly attempted to fix the ninth race at Florence, Sept.

For the first time in 20 years a passenger train stopped at Sauk City, Wis. to pick up fans. People came from Illinois) Iowa and Michigan, by train, car, bus, and ferry across Lake Michigan. Small towns set up "days" and "nights" at the ball park and bought, blocks of tickets, Cedar-burg, pop, 2,50. bought 3,000 tickets and not one went to waste.

Throughout the season, welcoming crowds greeted the team at the airport on each return from a road trip.

Two days later on Sunday a strange thing happened. The Braves were still in spring training in Florida.

But in lower Wisconsin, the roads leading to Milwaukee's County Stadium suddenly became clogged with automobiles. As if by some dim instinct, people wfre flocking to the stadium, the home of the new Braves, just Jo look at the spot, where history would be made, And Sunday after Sunday the crowds grew larger until squads of extra police ljad to handle the traffic jams.

That first season was madness.
