The Quakers went through an Inspired drill in preparation for the opener against a veteran Cleveland Lincoln squad here at Reilly Stadium Friday night at 8. Kenny Zaleski, who acored two touchdowns in the lid-lifter a year ago, is back, along with 13 other lettermen.

Speed, size and experience ahould make the Cleveland aggregation one of the top teams in that city during the aeason. Salem, still hit by a rash of Injuries, displayed plenty of hustle and desire during the workout last night. The blocking looked sharp, and the tackling was hard. The defense has come a long way aince Cooch Don Clarico took over the reins here in 1963. Lincoln split even in scrimmages in its practices.

Reports have it that the Presidents have a powerful running game, and a passer should they want to throw. COACH LOU probable starting lineup is as follows: seniors Ron Ba Paul Trujillo, or John Cwiek, ends; juniors Gary Tytko, and Ed Colaizzi, tackles; Oleh Pletnewski, 200-lb. senior; and Bill Nakoneczny, 175-lb. junior, guards; and Dale Dankowski, 190-lb. senior at center.

Salem will hold its tuneup practice from 7 until after 8 tonight. Clarico has made the change in the drill sessions because of the intense heat.

The preliminaries are over. The main event is about to start. Coaches have spent numerous days preparing their charges for the season opener, repeating and repeating fundamentals, el- Packers, Giants Rated Favorites In NFL By JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (AP) Paul Bornung will lead Green Bay to Western Conference title Y.A. magic will make It four straight for New York In the East, setting up another Packer-Giant showdown lor the National Football League title Dec. 27 at Yankee Stadium.

The Packers are generally being picked to dethrone the Chicago Bears in the West, with Baltimore and possibly Detroit and Minnesota challenging. The East looks like a wide scramble among New York, St. Louis and Cleveland, with Washington a long-shot possibility. Despite the 1-4 record in the exhibition games and player shake-ups of earthquake proportions, Allie I Sherman still has the old Bald Eagle and a flock of nifty pass catchers. St.

Louis is the soundest club in the East but they still have to prove themselves under championship fire and may be a bit thin in defense. Cleveland has added passing strength with rookie flanker Paul Warfield to complement Jim running, but something always seems to go wrong. With Sonny Jurgensen, rookie Charley Taylor and veteran Sam Huff in the lineup, Washington is highly respected. the way It looks from here before the opening gun: WESTERN CONFERENCE 1. Green Bay 2.

Chicago 3. Baltimore 4. Detroit 5. Minnesota 6 Los Angeles 7. San Francisco EASTERN CONFERENCE 1.

New York 2. St. Louis 3. Cleveland 4. Washington 5.

Pittsburgh 6. Dallas 7. Philadelphia Paul return after a suspension for betting on games and the driving ambition of Coach Vince Lombardi to make up for last defeats by the Bears should be enough to tip the scales in favor of Green Bay. Big strides in this race will be taken in the first three with Packers playing Chicago, Baltimore and Detroit on successive weekends.

TRY SALEM ADS Halas has that same alert defensive unit that won the league champonship last December.

The Bears blast anybody off die field but be in there. Tony Lorick looked so good against the Steelers that it is tempting to pick Baltimore higher than third. Johnny Uni- tas has some fine targets but the defense is showing its age. With Alex Karras, like Hornung back from a suspension, formidable defensive unit is intact but a year older. Much depends on Milt arm.

Minnesota, with a perfect 5-0 exhibition record, looks tough with Bill Brown and Tommy Mason approximating Green ground punch of Hornung and Jim Taylor. Los Angeles should beat out San Francisco for sixth place. That Ram front four on defense can give anybody fits. Tittle and the pass-catching corps give the edge to the Giants in the East although Sherman still has no running game and needs settling on defense and pass protection. The Cards have a fine passer in Charley Johnson, brilliant receivers in Sonny Randle and Bobby Joe Conrad and a big punch in Prentice Gautt and Joe Childress.

If they can stop the big running teams like Cleveland and Pittsburgh they can win. Cleveland has improved but must face both Green Bay and Detroit from the other conference. Those small pass defense men still will have trouble. Washington has come up with an exciting runner in Taylor, plus an experienced quarterback, Jurgensen, and more catching skill in Angelo Coia. Huff must help the defense all season for that leaky pass cover has killed the Skins for years.

Pittsburgh has been slow coming around but it has a stiff punch in John Henry Johnson and some tough muscle men up front. Dallas should have the wildest games in the league with Tommy McDonald and Buddy Dial catching and nobody to stop the other side. Joe rebuilding program at Philadelphia is coming along nicely but expect too much the first year. to make the Browns a passing team in the exhibition season Other NFL clubs can expect more of the same.

He played three full exhibition games and half of another, completing 49 of 90 passes passing used as a diversion. With Ryan on the firing line and Collins and Warfield loose in the econdary, opponents concentrate fully on Brown.

They have done about all they can for now. Once the players take the field pretty much out of the hands and up to the gridders how they will fare this season. Parents have spent the last days of summer hearing complaints about sore leg and arm muscles, occasional scratches and sometimes loosened teeth. Prognosticators have spent time going over the 1963 marks, checking on who lost what players and which ones are coming back, and trying to guess before the season starts if that bumbling sophomore who played second-string for Podunk High last year will turn out to be the fastest, most daring run ner of the season. And after all the data is in and all the coaches have told them just how great or poor they expect their team to be this year, the game-pickers sit down to make their selections for the first week of area high school grid action.

Last year in our inaugural attempt at this field, we hit on 89 of 119 picks for a not-too- bad .747 per cent. This year we intend to do better, although on paper it appears that the area high school races are more wide-open than last season. But here we go: Louisville over Glenwood. The mighty Leopards, last Tri-County League champs, should have little trouble downing the Canton team by two touchdowns. Lisbon over Carrollton.

Last Lisbon squad had a 9-1 nark and despite serious losses in backfield personnel should be too much for Carrollton, winning by two TDs. East Palestine over Canfield. This is a hard game to pick. Both teams lack a great deal of polish. Bulldogs by one touchdown.

Hubbard over Columbiana. Hubbard has too much all around power for the clippers to compete with, although it should be an interesting contest. Hubbard by one touchdown. Leetonia over United. We ll stick with the Tri-County team by one touchdown.

Minerva over Newton Falls. We know much about Newton Falls, but our touch spy told us to put our money on Minerva, by at least 3 touchdowns. Howland at Sebring. Sebring may escape from the cellar this year and give a lot of teams trouble. Sebring by two points.

McDonald over Orange. Orange? We'll take McDonald bv one TD. Marlington over West Branch. Marlington looked good in scrimmages against both Minerva and Lisbon, so should have little trouble handling West Branch. Marlington by at least two touchdowns.

Southern Local over Greenford. This could be another in teresting match. Southern Loca by one touchdown. Springfield Local over North Lima. North Lima may develop as the year progresses but or Saturday lose by one touchdown.

Lowellville over Western Reserve. No contest. Lowellville by three touchdowns. Mineral Ridge over Cresfc view. Mineral Ridge will make believers of the rebels, Ridge by three tallies.

East Liverpool over Beaver Local. Potters by six touchdowns. How did the Beaven happen to schedule this one? INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS W.L.Pet. G.B.
