Giants Place Lead On Line At Pittsburgh By EARL WRIGHT United Press International The New York Giants visit “heartbreak house.” the San I Francisco Forty - Niners try to 'snap a jinx and the Green Bay j Packers seek revenge for a 56-0• [defeat in three of Sunday’s top ; National Football League games. New York (3-1) tests its oneIgame Eastern Division lead against the Steelers (2-2) at PittsI burgh. The Giants have suffered some of their most humiliating 1 defeats in Pittsburgh arid Sunday's game is rated a tossup. San Francisco, tied with the j Baltimore Colts and Packers ['each 3-1) for the Western DiviI sion lead, entertains the Chicago i Bears (1-3). The Forty-Niners, are : Ipoint favorites but usually (have trouble with the Bears, dropping both their 1958 games with the Chicago team.

The Bears, considered Baltimore’s top rival in the Western Division when the season began, have scored only 60 points in four games. Will Provide Test The Packers took a 45-6 whip- ’ ping from the Rams last Sunday 1 after sweeping their first three ' games.

Billy Hunter Wins Over Tony Anthony . NEW YORK (UPD — Heavyweight contender Billy Hunter, who changed his style from boxer to slugger in order to stop chinachinned Tony Anthony Friday night, gets another TV fight at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 27. , The opponent for "Sweet” Billy of Detroit will be contender Alex Miteff of Argentina, whom Hunter coincidentally stopped in the seventh round at Syracuse, N.Y., on Sept. 25. Many thought that Victory a fluke. . Tall Billy scored a technical knockout over New Yorker Anthony at 1:04 of the seventh round in the Garden Friday night after belting him woozy in every round but the fourth. None of the three ring officials gave Tony more i than a round. Hunter —a protege of middleweight champion Sugar Ray fijobinson — weighed 193 pounds, to Anthony's 181 Mz as he tagged Anthony with his sixth kayo if eight defeats. The more-experienced Anthony had won 40 of his previous 48 starts. Anthony, former light heavyweight challenger, was swaying and drooping helplessly with his back against the ropes when referee Arthur Mercante stopped the bout. Tony was bleeding from the nose and from a cut on his left brow, and his left eye was praccally olpsed. There were no knockdowns although Anthony was half-pushed to one knee in the third, for a slip It was 25-year-old Hunter’s 14th victory and eighth knockout in 22 professional bouts. “Anthony expected me to box him at long range,” Hunter explained today. "And so he came right at me when the first round started and he nailed me with a hard right to the chin. But I crossed him up and went right after , him at close quarters and had him in trouble before the first minute of that round was over." More Areas Change Time Early Surtday United Press International Time will stand still for much of the nation early Sunday. ■ jf l At 2 am., states and communi- 1 ties in the East and Midwest will gain an hour as they make the annual switch from daylight saving time to standard time. Millions of clocks will be turned back one hour, giving their owpers an extra hour of Sunday morning sleep. The switch back to standard ■ time will end six months of "fast” time which, for most communities, began last April. But, as in other years, this { year’s clock-turning promised -to raise a host of problems. Communities in eastern and central Indiana announced they would stay on daylight savings time all winter, in defiance of a state law. Several Indiana towns petitioned the Interstate Commerce Commission to move the e.s.t.c.st, demarcation line from the Indiana-Ohio border to the middle of Indiana, leaving those owns with a form of daylight savings. State officials said the switch Sunday morning would leave 54 counties on central standard time and 38 on central daylight time. Other states changing time Sunday include Illinois, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New York and parts of Massachusetts. But things are better now than in former days when each city had its own time. Historians of the Bulova Watch Company say the local jeweler determined when the sun was directly overhead and called it noon.

Dressen Signs As Manager To Succeed Haney MILWAUKEE, Wis. (UPDCharley Dressen, a colorful extrovert who keeps himself in trouble by popping off both on and off the field, has signed a two-year contract to manage the Milwaukee Braves, 'Die announcement that the 61year old Dressen will succeed Fred Haney with a pact estimated at $35,000 a year will be made 'Officially at 2 p.m., e.d.t, today at County Stadium. The Braves i had tried to keep the announceI ment a secret but the United Press International learned late Friday night from /Dodger General Manager E. J. Jdßuzzy) Bavasi that Dressen wouNFbe named. Public Relations Director Donald Davidson of the Braves confirmed the news and added that Dressen had signed a two-year pact. As usual, when D.assen is involved, a controversy quickly developed between the Dodgers and Braves. Bavasi told UPT he is “happy for Charlie because it’s one of the better jobs in baseball” but added with a trace of bitterness: “I think the Braves should have played the game and advised us what they were doing.” Bavasi said neither the Braves nor Dressen had advised the Dodgers of the negotiations until Lou Perini, Braves’ president, tel- : ephoned him late Friday night. He said Perini asked the Dodgers’ permission to sign Dressen and that he “reluctantly agreed" to the request. Haney, also 61, resigned after the Braves lost the National League’s post-season playoff with the Dodgers in two straight games. Never an outstanding player,
