Coach Jim Lee Howell of the New York Giants has a choice of nightmares this week. , He can dream about the Chica go Bears, who visit New York Sunday with the National Football League's top attack, or about his list of injured players. The Bears, tied with Detroit for the Western lead and rated the Circuit's best club by Howell and other observers, give Howell plen ty to wory about. He also has a number of injured players and a vivid memory of 1954, his first season as head coach of the Giants. ; New York currently leads the Eastern Division with a 6-2 record. The Giants were on top with ex actly the same record at this state of the 1954 season. But r ranK Gifford and Kyle Rote, New York's.; top offensive halfbacks, both were injured on the first play of the ninth game. The Cleveland Browns stormed into the New York back-, field in the first minutes of the 10th game and sidelined Charley Conerly, the club's No. 1 quarter back, for the rest of the season. ' Weakened by those losses, the Giants blew the title by dropping three of their last four 1954 games. Howell is keeping his fingers crossed now but the signs are dminous. The Bears are picked to win be cause they have averaged 36 points a game while compiling a 7-1 record. '.

Best call This great triple-threat has the in stinct to make this go. you f e fh Quarterback By Warren Gar Kcmd Football Couk Onk Uolvtrefty. Harvard has a left halfback, whu s a great triple-threat, although inly 160 pounds and 5 ft. 8. With Yale leading, 20-14, '.he raditionul game is in the fourth Itiarter. The Crimson back has mt on a tremendous one-mar, show, accounting for all his team's 14 points by his running and kick ng. Now with Yale trying to stop is runs wi'.h a seven-man line, he Harvard offense has stalled, md the left half has thrown two lertect passes to his left and right nds and both have been dropped. It is now fourth down and 10 on he Yale 22-yard line. You, the Crimson quarterback, are a cap ible passer but not as effective as '.he left half. If the ball is midway Detween the sidelines, rate these plays 1, 2, 3 and 4: Deep pass with left halt throw Ing Pu'iN to the left half with you throwing Screen pass with left half throwing (fake, a deep pass, throw shallow to the side with linemen blocking for receiver) Run or pass cption with left half deciding after play starts (Answer elsewhere, on Sports Page) Newcombe . Most Valuable Player in N. L. NEW YORK (UP) Lumbering Don Newcombe, the bulky Brook lyn pitcher, who supposedly isn't able to win the "big ones," won the biggest honor the National League has to offer today when he was named the Most Valuable. Player for 1956. The 30-year-old Dodger right hander gathered a total of 223 points to beat out teammate Sal Maglie, who finished a surprising ly strong second with 183 points. For Newcombe, who won 27 games the past season but was knocked out twice by the Yankees in the World Series, his first MVP award capped an unusual year during which "choke-up" charges were hurled at him despite his im pressive victory total. And for the 39-year-old Maglie, who.' was considered "all through" when Cleveland let him go to the Dodgers in May, his strong second place showing climaxed a banner season during which he pitched a no-hitte.r against the Phillies and proved a motivating force in Brooklyn's climb to the pennant. The entire balloting, in which 24 members of the Baseball Writers' Association of America took part, was more or less a monopoly for the Dodgers. Five of them finished among the top 10, with second baseman Junior Gilliam winding up fifth, shortstop Pee Wee Reese eighth and ccnterfieldcr Duke Sni der 10th. Milwaukee outfielder Hank Aaron, the league's leading hitter with a .328 average, gained third place behind Newcombe and Mag lie with 146 points, teammate War ren Spahn, who won 20 games, was fourth with 126 points and Gilliam had 103 points in fifth place. They were followed by shortstop Roy McMillan of the Redlegs, in sixth place with 96 points; rookie Cincinnati outfielder Frank Robin son with 79 points; Reese wilh 71 points; Stan Musial of the Cardi nals with 62 and Snider with 55.
