Herman, 55, had one season as a major league manager. He visibly shudders when he recalls it—the 1947 campaign as boss on the Pittsburgh

“I was young, still in my 30s. and I made a lot of mistakes,” ; he said. “Besides, my pitching staff was older than I was.

Kelso To Run In Woodward Race

Jetsomania. which typifies the sudden acceptance of the New York Jets by New York fans, means that there will be clise to 52.000 far at Shea Stadium when the Jets played ' ieir second home game of the season against the AFL champion San Diego Chargers. Another 80.000 or so fans are expected to turn out for the three other games on the full AFL card which finds the Buffalo Bills playing the Oakland Raiders tonight and the Kansas Cit„ Chiefs facing the Houston Oilers and Boston Patriots meeting the Denver Broncos on Sunday. The Chargers ' > r < ' rated threepoint favorites over the Jets, the Oilers and Chiefs are rated pick ‘em, the f’lls s”-® nine points over the raiders and the Patriots are 10 over the Broncos.

NEW YORK UPI — Modern! day racing's greatest throughbred, Kelso, tries to become the world’s leading money winner today when he meets five rivals in the $100,000 added Woodward stakes at Aqueduct. Kelso, who has been “horse of the year” four times, has earned $1,711,132 in his career and trail® the retired Round Table by $38,737. A win in the Woodward, howe’-r, would net him $70,980 and make him the new leader.

touchdowns came on the ground as Greencastle seemed almost helpless to stop the powerful

backs.

Chief man In the Plainfield attack was sophomore halfback, Gary Brown. Brown gave a preview of th : ngs to come ?arly in the first quarter when he took a ham' iff and scamperea sixty yards for th game's f . * touchdown, "''ith only seconds rema' ng in the first half the powerf ’ly running Brown agaL. exploded for a long scoring jaunt, this one from the forty-eight yard line. Another Sophomore, Jerry Me ollum, added his first of four conversions to make the scor 33-0. In ‘he second half Brown uplicated v ”’s two-t^uch-dovu first half ‘ort by scoring on -‘.n eight yard s’"t and an amazing 5 rt -yard pun* return. Other standout performers in the irreligious Ouaker onslaught were quarterback, Dave Meeks, who fired a forty-eight T. D. ss in the first quarter "nd ran the team like a pro, and

game and Phil Terry was the snly consistent runner — but these two received little help from their teammates. The closest Greencastle came to scoring was in the closing minutes when they drove to the ten yard line where they lost the ball on a fumble. The loss left the Tiger Cubs with a disappointing 0-5 record. Next week they encounter West Vigo on the opponent’s field.

last 28 years.

Ard it has been rough for the Yanks. In fact this is the tightest pennant race the powerful Yankees have been forced into

in 15 years.

Not since 1949, when the Yankees beat Boston to win the American League flag on the final day of the season, have the Bronx Bombers been so extended to meet their annual World Series commitment.
