8 THE POST-STANDARD, September 22,1965 Draws No. 5 in Brown Ju Six to Challenge Bret Hanover DELAWARE, Ohio (AP) Favored Bret Hanover drew the No. 5 post position Tuesday and only six other horses were entered to challenge the fabled son of Adios in Thursday's $70,000 Little Brown Jug for 3- year-old pacers.

Ed Demo drove the eight-year- old gelding.

Virginia Little made a strong bid with Bernie Cross in the drive but was a length short at the finish wire. Speed- ean closed from fifth to take the show, three lengths back. The daily double was 4-3 and it returned $16.80. It was made up of Dave Smith and S. K.

Bumpas. There were 1,134 tickets sold on it. Garland Garnsey drove Dave Smith and had two and a half lengths over Davy Decker at the finish. S. K.

A triumph here ancl another in November in the Messenger Stake at Roosevelt Raceway could match Adios Butler's sweep in 1959. To win the Jug, a horse must take two heats.

He is a man under intense pressure. It is a strange kind of pressure because most of it conies from within. Earlier this year, the management handed him a 10-year contract to coach the Giants, his future will neither rise nor fall with the 1965 Giants. Still, on Sunday, the Giants were lousy. The offense couldn't go and the defense had to work overtime and you can't get by very HAMILTON-C I a e's of.

fense is "green but has a great potential" as compared with last year, according to coach Hal Lahar. The Red Raiders have more backfield speed but Lahar said he was concerned about bocking in his plans for Saturday's game at Cornell. He said the team made the "usual number" of mistakes in its opener with Lafayette and laid the bulk of them to inex- eprience. Fullback Tom Carpenter and guard Ray Miller are the only offensive starters holding over from 1964. Lahar told the Colgate Cliffhangers Club luncheon Tuesday that he is disturbed about lack of depth at the ends on both units.

"We only have four ends to spread around among the two groups so we'll be playing with fire the whole year," he explained. "If we lose any more ends, we're going to have to start playing a out at the flanks." The quarterback situation remains "fluid," according to the coach. Senior Buff Platt still is bothered by a hip injury and is in the class for the game with the Big Red. He discounted the so-so show- Will Oppose Col Cornell to Rely On Three Sophs ITHACA Three sophomores with the best chances of playing much for Cornell in Saturday's opener with Colgate are John Denies, center; Ron Kopicki, linebacker, and Bill Murphy, defensive halfback. Denies, an Ithaca boy, is battling it out with Kent Norton for the center assignment.

They have divided the time there throughout the preseason and might well continue to spell one another. Kopicki is a 540 195-poundcr, from Kingston, who has made excellent progress behind the line after switching from guard. He was a regular for the freshmen last year. Murphy is the son of Bill Murphy, who was a halfback on the great 1939 and 1940 teams. He started out as a defensive back as a freshman last year and has picked up a lot of experience this fall, alternating at all three deep spots with halfbacks John Zankowski and Dale Witwer and safetyman Jimmy Docherty.

Cornell spent Tuesday dusting off most all of its offensive weapons, checking blocking assignments and reviewing its kicking game. It was in the kicking game where Cornell fell down badly last year. Coach Tom Harp feels that aid the bugs are out IN THE SUMMER, THEY WENT TO camp and the i were a good, solid bunch of kids. The pass catchers the good veteran sets of hands were all a long that way.

It could be type-micasting. Philadelphia a hangovers are inseparable. Sherman spoke in clear, concise tones. They went to camp with John Lovetere, an excellent intimidator, at defensive tackle.

Then there was Jim Moran and Contoulis and Tony Dimidio and they figures There is no way to hide what has happened they'd find another one in the 'group.

Lahar rated his a a i Lafayette as "very good" but warned that Cornell would pose a much stiffer test, Bragan Says He Expects To Keep Job MILWAUKEE (AP) Manager Bobby Bragan said Tuesday night he has "every reason to feel confident" that 'he'll manage the Braves again next- season. Bragan refused to be more specific, saying only "that I've always enjoyed a very fine association with the Braves, specifically with John McHale." McHale is the Braves' president.

Colgate capitalized last year, followed dosely by Bill Carpenter's tour of blocking a punt for a safety 71 yards with a kick off return. That was enough for an 8-3 victory. Harp expects that quarterback Marty Sponaugle will handle all the punting chores, but he may turn some over to defensive end Dudley Kaufman. Skip Homicz and Joe Zogby are the kickoff men, Homicz, who plays defensive guard, did most of it last year.

Both are capable of kicking field goals in the 30-yard range. Nomads Plan Outing At Cavalry Club The Nomads Club plans its fall outing at the Cavalry Country Club on Thursday. Dr. Richard J. Rebasz was the 1965 winner of the Brad Wheeler Memorial trophy when the two-day event was at the Thousand.

Island Club at the August outing of the 24-member group. Robert W. Ross, the program chairman, will present the awards to the 18-hole winners at the dinner at the Cavalry Club. BOBBY FISCHER LOSES HAVANA, Cuba (f)--Russia's Ratmir Jolmov defeated Bobby Fischer, the United States champion from New York, in 46 moves of an adjourned match early Tuesday in the Capablanca chess tournament to the Giants of New York and the coach made no effort to do so. You cannot build for next year without playing this one first and 1965 looks like it might be the year of the big hangover.

What has happened to the Giants is very easy to understand. The calendar chopped tackles broke down. Moran and Dimidio a Contoulis are gone. Lovetere has a bum leg. Three more ships in the night passed through at that position before they brought Roger Anderson over from the offensive unit a acquired a cut named Mike Bundra.

The rest of it wasn't so bad except for them down. Football is a young man's game quarterback. But in the exhibition season it and now most of the boys-grown-older a gone. There were holes which could not be filled in while they were winning. There were became clear that these were the two points of no return with what was available.

So they traded away Darrell Dess, who was the deals that had to made for the money guts of their pass blocking because they needed a professional quarterback to i out what the other kids could do. my life in this," Sherman says," I could work 18 maybe 20 hours a day and I have but when I hit the pillow, I sleep. I didn't sleep for nights after I to send Dess away. I knew what it would do to us. But we had to have a quarterback.

If we didn't have a professional, I could never judge what the ethers could do because we and there was no way on earth to make the deals everybody knew had to be made for the year after next. So they won three championships, which was about as good as you can get, and then last year, which was the coach's fourth, the legs got older an'd the arms grew tired' and all the wheels fell off. NOW THE COACH HAS TO FIND A be put together in one. week or six or eight. If he's lucky he can do it in 11 Somebody switched off the lights and the coach started the projector rolling and it was Sunday afternoon in Dallas and the Giants were third and two on the Dallas 39.

He went straight ahead at a man already immobilized and from the left corner of the screen, a halfback in Dallas' stacked defense busted the play.

thing. It would have been a-mess. "I didn't sleep. I figure had to trade away Dess to save 39 men." It is a somewhat dramatic way to put it but it is accurate. The Giants have had to scramble at tackle and at quarterback.

Their new quarterback will not win a championship for them and next year they will have to start, all over again at that position but it was a move that had to be made. "You're down now," a man suggested, "and it takes time. But what's to insure that clubs do, you "They'scramble," the coach said. "They push the panic button: We admittedly had to scramble at quarterback but the other kids are going to play. We can't panic.

We don't have to. not champions." The Giants scrambled for a quarterback because they had nothing. They scrambled for years ago," Sherman conceded, tackles because without a pass rush of any i 1 A 11 1 "We get the first down. That kind of thing is the difference. Two mental mistakes in two plays.

The 1965 Braves, the choice of many for the pennant, fell out of the race in the past two weeks. They were nine games out of first place going into Tuesday night's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, Bragan has been the target of County Stadium hecklers the season, scheduled to be the Braves' last in Milwaukee. Bragan, a southerner, is expected to be more popular in Atlanta, where the Braves are moving next season. Milwaukee is the third major league team managed by Bragan.
