Taylor, a 27-year-old former Louisiana State ace in his fifth year of pro ball, grabbed the award won last year by l'aul Hornung, the Packer's glamorous triple threat halfback who has been crippled by a knee injury this season. With one more game to play, Taylor already has tied the NFL record by scoring 18 touchdowns, all on the ground, and leads the league in scoring with 108 points.

Packer fans have been Insisting that Taylor deserved to be named the All-Star fullback over Cleveland's Jimmy Brown. They finally got their wish this season. Brown's fabulous five-year reign as rushing champion is sure to end and Taylor appears sure to succeed him. Taylor has gained 1.318 yards in 249 carries. 206 yards more than John Henry Johnson of Pittsburgh, his closest competitor.

Brown is fourth with 861 yards. Y. A. Tittle, the old "bald eagle" who has thrown 27 touchdown passes for the New York Giants, finished a strong second to Taylor in the voting. Taylor drew 19 ballots, Tittle had 13 and Bobby Mitchell, Washington flanker back had four.

Neshaminy won 10 games, tying one with Allentown High, 14-14. Pennsbury and William Tennent tied for second place. "Naturally we're upset about it," said Neshaminy coach John Peter-cuskie. "But this is the rule and we abide by it.

Sherman outpointed four contenders in the voting of an Associated Press committee of sports writers and broadcasters from the 14 league cities today. The committee gave Sherman 13 votes to 10 for Bill McPeak of Washington, seven each for Vince Lombardi of Green Bay and Tom Landry of Dallas and four for George Wilson of Detroit.

"I am grateful for this honor," said Sherman in his office at Yankee Stadium, where he is preparing the Giants for Sunday's game with Dallas. "I didn't know anybody ever repeated. I want to thank all the players and my staff." Sherman said one big reason for the club's improvement was the fact that Y. A. Tittle and the players had grown to know one another better.

He pointed out that Tittle, acquired last year from San Francisco, had been injured in the 1961 training season and missed the opening game. "Tittle had to learn the whole club last year," he said. "Now he knows what they can do and we know what to expect from him. "Another thing that has helped us is that we were able to firm up our backfield with Phil King and Alex Webster. I don't think we started the same two running backs in any game all last season." Sherman didn't say it but he knew the club had to be better than last year if it expected to handle Green Bay in their probable meeting Dec.
