By HAL WOOD SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) The so-called "experts" pick the San Francisco Forty Niners to finish anyplace from third to sixth in the seven-team Western Division of the National Football League race this year. But coach Red Hickey, in his second year at the helm of the Prospectors, won't listen to any of it. "I won't make a prediction where we'll finish but you can bet we will go into every game thinking we can win it," says Red. Off the basis of their exhi bition games and in practice sessions, the Forty Niners look stronger than they have at any time for several years. That's because of good reserve strength.

"I think we have the best sec ondary defensive unit in football in Abe Woodson, Jerry Mertens, Dave Baker and Eddie Dove," says Alickey. "That used to be our weak point. But last year this unit welded." Some fans think that the For ty Niners will be "too old" to put up a good show. And the records reveal they have something to complain about. Bulwark of the defensive line, for instance, is Leo Nom-ellini.
