GRID SUCCESS STORY Americans 40 eaUaiiiiiCrlbuiu 1967 49ers Hif-Ha If Way-Clobber Gaels Are Just Amazing Mark With Hope Gaels' coach is worried, about his calibre of competition. "I'm beginning to think it's not realistic," coach George Galli told the Northern Call- By BLAINE NEWNHAM Football at St. Mary's College, last year just a fond memory of aging alumni, has developed so rapidly that the Brye, A's Farm Stars Win Honors Jose's Danny Holman, I don't want to detract from Holman, but it does demonstrate how much Lee is improving' The Tigers, now 2-4, host a Colorado State team which Scovil labels "very physical, as physical as Utah State. Les Davis, lammentlng Cal State's 23-7 loss to Nevada, said linebacker Dennis Hagins and defensive tackle Greg Winstead will both miss Saturday's game with Chicago State. Pat Malley, whose Santa Clara (5-0) team is the Bay Area's only other unbeaten college squad besides St.

Mary's, was very pleased with Ray Calcagno's four touchj down passes and the 208-yarijpL, rushing by Darryl Stowers. Wyoming, the nation's eighth-ranked team and unbeaten, takes on the Spartans Saturday afternoon in San Jose, who apparently will play without halfbacks Walt Shock-ley and Willie Riley. "We may use Glenn Mas-sengale (5-4) and Frank Sla-ton (5-6) in a piggy-back I formation," kidded SJS assistant coach John Webb. "There's nothing wrong with Danny Holman," he con-tinued, "He's had passes dropped by sophomore receivers (the Spartans have lost Mike Scrivner and John Cri-velho with injuries) and has just not been throwing as much." STEVE BRYE Twins' Draft Prize man Randy Schwartz of Vancouver were named to the AAA Western All-Stars, Wojcik and first baseman Joe Rudi of Birmingham made the AA Eastern All-Stars, and Evans was selected to the Eastern Rookie League All-Stars. All are A's farm hands.

fornia Football Writers yester day after the Gaels had rout' ed Moffett Field, 55-6, last Saturday. "It was 32-0 at half and I realized that we were beating themup pretty bad. They play football for fun. So do we, or at least we're supposed to. "But to me and most of our players, fun is winning." Win the Gaels have done.

They are 4-0" and this Saturday night at Pittsburg High play Ohlone College, a new JC in Fremont. "It looks like we've got a success story at St. Mary's. Anyone who's seen our games knows how excited our students and players are about football. I think we're improving with each game," Galli continued.

Wins over Ohlone and the UC Davis junior varsity would close out an undefeated season for the Gaels, who are playing football for the first time since 1950. But next year St. Mary's swings into regular four-year college competition and meets teams like Claremont College, UC Riverside, Southern Oregon and the University of San Francisco. Probably a very realistic schedule. Pacific- coach Doug Scovil quite appropriately drew a big puff on a bigger cigar and spoke glowingly of his club's 34-14 win over San Jose.

"It's the second year that Bob Lee has outplayed San Here's to its Miler. BIG By BILL DUNBAR Shaking off the effects of the Detroit game like a bad coach Jack-Chris-tiansen hopes to have the second half of the football season become as successful as the first half. Even with the 45-3 loss to the Lions at Kezar Stadium Sunday, the 49ers have reached the halfway point sporting a 5-2 record and face the Los Angeles Rams there next Sunday. "I said at the start of the season that a 16-4 record would pat a team right op in contention and I still think so," Chris said yesterday after watching the films of the Detroit game. "I hope we can play the second half of the season the same way we did the first half.

If so, we will still be in although the second-half schedule looks tougher than the first half." The coach thinks that the Sox Williams Manager of The Year NEW YORK (LTD Dick Williams, who led the Boston Red Sox to a pennant in his rookie season, was named the American League's Manager of the Year today by the United Press International. The 38-year-old former handyman for five big league teams was chosen by 23 of the 24 experts who participated in the UPI's annual post season survey. Eddie Stanky of the Chicago White Sox received the other vote. An outfielder by trade who played career between 1947 and 1964, Williams took over a team which finished ninth in 1966 and guided it to one of the most remarkable pennant victories in baseball history. The Red Sox, 100-to-l shots in preseason odds, won the American League pennant on the final day of the season af t-ter a four-cornered battle with the Minnesota Twins, Detroit Tigers and White Sox.

Williams' main contributions to the victory were the instilling of a new spirit in the Red Sox and the handling of a pitching staff that was razor-thin by the standards of an average contending team. Gypsy Joe Wins 22nd on Points PHILADELPHIA (AP) -Gypsy Joe Harris still is unbeaten today, but you couldn't convince Irish Bobby Cassidy. Harris won a close, unanimous 10-round decision over Cassidy, of New York, last night for his 22nd victory. Cassidy now is 27-7-2. It was a hard-fought fight in which the decision could have gone either way.

One judge and the referee scored it 46-45 for Harris, while a second judge voted 47-43 for the Phi-ladelphian. The Associated Press scored it a 44-44 draw. Colonels By The Associated Press Dan Anderson watched his New Jersey teammates battle the Kentucky Colonels on even terms for little more than one and then he got off the bench to remedy the situation. The 6-foot-10 center entered the game with 10:36 remaining in the second quarter, broke a 32-32 tie by making a foul shot. Anderson went on to score 10 more points and grab 12 rebounds as the Americans built up a 59-50 halftime lead en route to a 114-101 American Basketball Association game last night.

In the only other ABA game, New Orleans whipped Pittsburgh 128-99 at Memphis, Tenn. There were no National Basketball Associaion games. John Austin led New Jersey scorers with 21 points. Walt Simon added 18, and Anderson finished with 16 points and 17 rebonnds. Darel Carrier scored 26 for the Colonels.

Doug Moe led the Buccaneers with 31 points, including 12 late in the third period 3S New Orleans built a 20-point lead.

The Jets' front office announced today that Namath had his right ankle stepped on during a fumble scramble in the Boston game at Shea Stadium. The Jets' sipal caller will not suit up for tomorrow's practice but is expected to work out Wednesday. In the meantime, the Jets said, he is visiting a doctor to find out the extent of the inju-vry.

The organization gives the young player a chance to play and develop. "I'm really excited about it," he said of the move, "and I think the people of Oakland will be pleasantly surprised and will like our club. They can grow with It."

Now that the 49ers are going up against Los Angeles and its tremendous defensive a wall, Christiansen has tried to figure how his offensive line handled the Rams the last time and failed to do the job against the Lions. "Four out of the five men in the line didn't do the job," the coach commented. "I won't say who played fairly well, because players themselves know who didn't put out.

"The big thing we have going for us against the Rams is that these men know they are better ball players than they showed against Detroit. I know we have a good unit up Troy Leads Most Pac-8 Statistics If statistics lie; then California stands a setter chance of knocking off USC than Stanford does Washington. The No. 1-ranked Trojans lead four of six team statistics in the Pacific-8 Conference, and are second in the other two while Cal's best showing is a third. On the other hand, Stanford and Washington stand right behind each other in three of the categories, which should make a closer game.

Pries also signed right-handed pitcber Don Carney oat of Alisal High in Salinas this spriag, and he went on to a 3-1 record for Bradentoa of the Florida State League. Still on the A's negotiating list are outfielder Ron Shotts of Stanford's fine team that went to the College World Series in June, and southpaw pitcher Mark Reeser who pitched Skyline High to the Oakland Athletic League title the last two years and now attends Laney College. Both were drafted by the A's in June. "With the nucleus of young talent we have," Pries says of the young Athletics, "we could be a real contender in a few years. Mike Hershberger is the oldest player at 28, so all of our guys should come into their own about the same time.

"Most of our guys are about 24 or 25 and getting major league experience," he explains. "Once tbey arrive, the club should be a pennant contender for many years to come.

"I hope we get the same play out oi those offensive people that we got the week after Baltimore," the coach remarked.

"The last two or three years we felt our offensive line was a strong point, but maybe the Detroit blitz confused them." Defensively, the coach felt the club played well for three quarters before the Lions got momentum from the scent of victory and started to run away.

As to what the move might mean to his job, Pries said that the A's would probably be "more aggressive in the Western states than ever before because we'll be trying to secure more local talent.
