Christiansen New Forty-Niner Coach SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) — Youthful Jack Christiansen held his first workout as head coach of the San Francisco Forty Niners today — confident that he could rebuild the fading fortunes at a club that has lost 10 straight ball games. Christiansen, 34-year-old former defensive star of the Detroit Lions, took over the fortunes of the San Francisco club late Monday after Red Hickey resigned. He has to be a man with a mission to make good with a club that was slaughtered by the Minnesota Vikings, 45-14, on Sunday: had lost all three league games this year; all five exhibition games, plus the final two games of the 1962 season. “I have no definte changes in personnel or playing positions at the present time,” said Christiansen. “But we have some good men on this squad if we can get them to play up to their potential. “I feel we should be able to win out share of the games.” A few minutes after Christiansen held his first press conference, wherein he wondered about the quarterback situation where John Brodie has a sore throwing arm, who should walk into camp but the veteran Lamar McHan. McHan was obtained from the Baltimore Colts on waivers last

Four Games On Tap Friday In NEIC Conference Four Northeastern Indiana conference games are on tap this Friday including the Bluffton engagement at Worthman Field. The Yellow Jackets will be out for their second conference win against a pair of losses, when they pjay host to old-rival Bluffton Friday. The Tigers own a 1-3 NEIC and overall mark, having beaten Columbia City. While the Jackets were trouncing non-conference foe Portland, 27-6, last Friday, the Tigers were losing a 33-0 decision at Garrett. The Railroaders defeated the Jackets earlier in the season by a 22-6 count. Garrett is tied for the conference lead with the New Haven Bulldogs, as each team is undefeated in three starts. Other Friday Games A big contest, comes up this Friday at the Woodlan field when New Haven hosts defending champion Concordia. The Cadets lost to Kendallville by a 12-6 score last Friday, and another defeat would just about end their chances of repeating. Garrett will entertain winless Elmhurst, and appears a sure bet to chalk up its fourth victory without a loss. Also on Friday, Kendallville will host Columbia City's Eagles. New Haven remained at the top with Garrett when the Bulldogs handed Angola’s Hornets their first defeat by a 13-7 score Saturday evening. Conference standings: NEIC All Games Garrett 3-0 4-0 New Haven 3-0 4-0 Angola 2-1 2-1 Kendallville 2-1 3-1 Concordia 1-1 2-2 Decatur 1-2 2-2 Aubufh“~“~“FT 2=2 Columbia City.. 1-2 1-3 Bluffton 1-3 1-3 Elmhurst - 0-3 0-4 Junior High Game Here On Thursday The local junior high football team will entertain Parkway, 0., at Worthman Field Thursday at 430 p.m. The Decatur team is unbeaten after two starts, as they whipped Parkway, 14-0, and Village Woods of New Haven, 19-0. Detroit Lions Back Is Out For Season DETROIT (UPD—Gary Lowe, defensive back of the Detroit Lions, Will be operated on today to repair the Achilles tendon which was torn three inches above the ankle in Sunday’s loss to the Chicago Bears. Lowe will miss the entire season as the result of the freak accident. week, but was slow in reporting. “He’ll be insurance for us in ease ’ Brodie’s arm continues to bother him,” said Christiansen. “Against the Detroit Lions this week we’ll use Brodie if he can go. If he can’t, we’ll try with Bobby Waters. It will take a while for McHan to learn our plays.” Christiansen is starting his first tour of duty as head coach. He is rated as one of the all-time best secondary defensive men in the history of the National League. It was at Detroit that he headed his famous “Chris' Crew” that ate up passes from opposing teams during the midfifties. He has been an assistant coach with the Forty Niners since 1959.

Houk, Alston Agree Hurling To Be Factor NEW YORK fUPD — Manager Ralph Houk of the Yankees hoped today for “the breaks” and skipper Walter Alston of the Dodgers for “a healthy Sandy Koufax” for the World Series opening Wednesday ■in Yankee Stadium. There was a good chance Alston’s hope would be fulfilled for Koufax. the golden armed southpaw who will face Whitey Ford, New York’s left handed money pitcher, in the first game said on his arrival. “I feel fine." He had been reported suffering from the aftermath of a slight case of the flu. However, only time — perhaps seven games — will tell whether the Yankees, who have made winning World Series a habit, will get the breaks. The way Houk sees it, the two teams are so evenly matched that the series could be decided by. “the breaks of the game.” He doesn't buy the general talk that the Dodgers are inferior defensively. Pitching Is Factor He does agree with Alston that pitching, usually the name of the game whether it be for one game or 162, will decide the series victor providing those breaks even up. Although the Yankees are concerned to have more depth in the pitching department, the Dodgers starting trio of Koufax. Johnny Podres and Don Drysdale and their relief ace, Ron Perranoski. are accorcTecr a slight' “edge over the Yankees “big four." They are starters Ford, Al Downing and Jim Bouton with Hal Reniff the No. 1 man in the bullpen. Houk, cheered by the improvement in the condition of his two outfield stars, Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris, said the Yankees “are in the best physical condition of the season.” Alston was concerned over his pitching — Koufax, Perranoski and Podres. Has The Flu Like Koufax, Perranoski has had a touch of the flu.r “Unless Koufax gets sitk today or tomorrow, he’ll pitch,” said Alston upon the Dodgers’ arrival Monday night, “and Perranoski is okay. • Among his regulars, Alston had a question mark’ in rookie third base Ken McMullen. -McMullen re-injured a muscle in his left leg Thursday night but Alston thinks he will be ready to play Wednesday. If heisn’t, he will shift Jim Gilliam to third base and put rookie Dick Tracewski,' a slick fielder but ' weak hitter, at 'second. Alston refused to name a starting lineup “until I find out if McMullen will play.” Houk named this lineup and batting order for the first game: Shortstop Tony Kubek, second baseman Bobby Richardson, left fielder Tom Tresh, Mantle. Maris, catcher Elston Howard, first baseman Joe Pepitone and Ford. Rich Series Seen Although this will be the eighth World Series meeting between the clubs, it will be the first since the Dodgers left Brooklyn after the 1957 season to find a baseball gold mine in the Far West and Yankee officials predicted capacity crowds for the first two games here Wednesday and Thursday. They reported, however, that a few reserved seats had not been sold while about 6,000 bleacher and standing room only tickets will go on sale the day of each game. With standing room, the Yankees can crowd 72,000 in their park. Add that to the 55,000 capacity of Dodger Stadium in Los A.ngeles, and it figures to be the richest series ever for the players, who share in the receipts of the first four games only. I The Yankees, who have won 20 out of the 27 previous World Series in which they have participated, were favored to win this one, 7*4 to 5 and were 6 to 5 choices to win the opening game,The Dodgers have won but two of their previous 10 scries, the last one’ coming in 1959 against the Chicago White Sox. The advance forecast for Wednesday called for “fair and mild" weather ~by the 1 p.m. EDT game time.

Indiana Star Is Chosen As Back Os Week CHICAGO (UPD — A triplethreat,’ 40 - niinutes-a-game halfback__ known simply as “marvelous Marv" on the Indiana University campus today was picked by the United Press International as midwest back of the week. He’s Marv- Woodson, an ace on offense and defense who has apparently taken up where he left off last season when he wound up as All-Big Ten halfback. Woodson's Hoosiers were beaten 34-21 by Northwestern Saturday, but he easily was the best player on the field. In the first quarter Woodson delayed a touchdown march by tackling George Burman after the Northwestern end had scampered 40 yards on a catch of Tom Myers' 15 yard pass. Burman was downed on the eight-yard line. Tn the third period, with the score tied, Woodson... seemingly coming from nowhere, caught speedy Dick McDaucy after he galloped 65 yards toward the Hoosier goal line. Woodson’s onehanded tackle brought McCauley down, on the 15. That stopped Northwestern and led to Indiana's 80-yard scoring march. Woodson intercepted on touchdown and deflected another into the hands of teammate Tom Nowatzke. He scored one touchdown, gained 67 yards on 15 carries, and returned a kickoff for 58 yards. The Hoosier halfback made a good prophet out of Northwestern coach Ara Parseghian, who said all along that his main worry was Woodson’s running. And after it was all over, Par seghian feared that he had underestimated Woodson. “We only hit him solidly once in the whole game.” Parseghian said. “His secret is si>«ed, plenty of it. He's one of the few runners I've seen who has the ability to cut without losing speeds" Parseghian said Woodson was “outstanding on that kickoff return. We just couldn't get our hands on him.” Dickens, accustomed to Winxison’s heroics, said simply, “I thought he was the best back on the field by far. He went both ways, offense and defense.” Dickens said Woodson was a "fine back last year, but he’s going to be better this year because he's older and more improved.” Cardinals, Giants Make Player Trade ST. LOUIS (UPD — Only one day after the baseball season had ended, the St. Louis Cardinals and the San Francisco Giants participated in the first post-season trade of 1963. The Cards traded 29-year-old pitcher Ken MacKenzie for Giant reserve catcher Jim Coker Monday.
