CHICAGO Owner George .its rt tne Uncus Bsars is go isiij to make a concliing comeback at the age of 63 with some "new ideas" he's itching to put Into practice. The National Football League pioneer yesterday announced he will succeed Paddy Driscoll as head coach of the team he organ ized as the Decatur, III., Staleys in 1920 and moved to Chicago in 1921. It will be Halas' third return to coaching. He celebrated his other two comebacks with champion ships in 1933 and 1946. Two years ago, he handed the coaching reins to Driscoll, saying aamimstrative and coaching du ties were too much for him. Driscoll piloted the Bears to the western Division title in 1956 only to lose the playoff championship to New York. The Bears were pre- season favorites last year but fin ished in the second division with a 5-7 record. Halas said Driscoll would be come administrative vice presi dent in charge of team organiza tion and added there would be no other staff changes. That means retention of assistant coaches Phil Handler, Luke Johnson, Clark Shaughnessy, George Connor and Sid Luckman, "When I quit coaching," said Halas, "I couldn't think of any reason to induce me to come back. But sitting back and looking over the situation the last two years, I felt coaching methods in pro foot ball were changing and I devel oped some new ideas. Now I want to try out those ideas." eyes on the world Indoor record of 4:03.6. "I ran in front most of the time because no one else wanted the lead. But I took it easy, waiting for Rozsavolgyi to make his move. He has gone un der four minutes outdoors so you . must admit 1 couldn't take any ' chances." Rozsavolgyi, who arrived in the United States only two days be fore the race, wasn't exactly cele brating, either. "Is Delany disappointed?" he repeated. "Me, too. All . that smcke bothered me, a lot more than I thought it would. But I ran poorly. I think I can do bet ter with more experience."
