Intm NFL Rushing Figures Led By Brown Philadelphia -(UPD- The Na tional Football league was ,at the halfway point today and from every indication, Jimmy Brown of the Cleveland Browns could crawl to a league record for ground gain ed by rushing in one season. The bulldozing Brown, "held" to a "mere" 113 yards by the New York Giants last Sunday, led the rushers with 928 yards, with rookie team mate Bob Mitchell in second place with 479. Brown has six games left to bombard the record Steve Van Buran set for the Phil adelphia Eagles in 1949, and he s only zib yards away j from bteve s i,i4t yard total. The former Syracuse star is hitting at a 7.1 average yards per carry, a phenomenal 155 yards per game, giving Van Buren's mark about two weeks to stand. Brown also was the leading scorer with 15 touchdowns, just three away from Van Buren's league record of 18 in one season. that way." It was 19 years ago that Osmanski, just out of Holy Cross, played for 59 minutes with the College All-Stars against the New York Giants and wound up with the most valuable player trophy. "It was the turning point of my life," he said. Originally Osmanski had planned to immediately enter dental school. Instead, he signed a contract with the Bears. Rough Game "I don't think they should have put in that knee-touch-ing-the ground ruling," he said. "Sure, I guess the own ers have a lot invested in their stars and want to protect them but football is supposed to be a rough game. It's all just part of the sport." He said he felt specializa tion was taking something away from players especial ly on the college level. "They don't get a chance to play the game per se. They only get one chance, at either defense or offense. They're not getting the full picture It's sort of like they're living in two dimensions. They're missing the part of give and take that makes football so great," he said. There were nine years of it -this give and take-for Os manski with the Bears. Then he returned to dentistry. He now has a successful practice, a wife, and six children.
