Packers To Follow The hgle Star, Coach May Packer Strategy Planned GREEN BAY.Wis. (AP)-Coach Vince Lombardi said today that rh firppn Bav Packers will fol- low his script when they meet the Philadelphia Eagles in the Nation 1 Football League title round. The Packers and the Eagles play for the NFL crown at noon EST Monday in Philadelphia. Lombardi wouldn't spell out def inite strategy tor the contest. However, he hasn't tried to make it a secret that the Packers will rely heavily on their powerful run ning attack. And he' also wants control of the ball. He has two things in mind. Philadelphia's Norm Van Brock lin who has 24 touchdown passes for the season can't throw the ball unless he has it. The run ning attack has proved to be the best type of offensive against the Eagles. To carry out his conquest plans, Lombardi has backs Paul Hor nung and Jim Taylor just about the best one-two running slam in the league. He also has the pass ing ability of Bart Starr at hand ihould anything happen to break up the Hornung-Taylor combina tion on the overland trail. The team Lombardi takes to Philadelphia and Franklin Field Knhirrlav is in Bood DhVsical shape. Taylor had been listed as being fairly well Banged up. cen ter Jim Ringo had a stubborn Charley horse and defensive back Jesse Whittenton a pulled leg mus cle. But Lombardi said all of them will be ready for any kind cf action by game time. The Packers worked out for an hour in the city stadium Thurs day, and Lombardi said one of his worries is whether the team will thaw out in time for the game. The temperature was the lowest of the week, one above zero, with no break in the cold front seen before the team leaves town. , Most of the players had Stock In 0 rans and mittens on for the workout on a field so frozen that cleats were left in the locker room to avoid twisted ankles. Another outside session was on tap for today with a coaches' and players' meeting to follow. fx-VVSC Boss Rates Niche l.ns ANGELES (AP) - Babe Hollingbcry. who guided the Wash ington State College's Cougars, has been named to the Hall of Fame of the Helms Athletic Foundation.

The white-haired, 61-year-oUl Shaw was voted the NFL Coach-nf-the-Year and Van Brocklin was chosen Player-of-the-Year in a UPI poll of 39 writers who cov ered the 1960 campaign. The pan el was made up of three writers from each league city. Both To Retire Coincldentally, both Shaw and Van Brocklin have announced they intend to wind up their re spective coaching and playing ca reers with Monday s NFL cham pionship game against the Green Bay Packers in Philadelphia. Shaw and Van Brocklin joined the Eagles together in 1958 when the club was one of the doormats of the NFL. Within three years they guided the Eagles to the Eastern Division championship. In the player-of-the-year voting, Van Brocklin was a one-sided choice. He received 27 of the 39 Titan Boss Still Confident NEW YORK (AP)-Harry Wis-j mer oozes confidence that his New York Titans and the Ameri can Football League are here to stay despite a bath of red ink for both in the first year of oper ation. Titans' president said his outfit blew $350,0lO and all clubs in the league a collective $2 million. "I know I'll get it back be cause this is the league of the future," said WLmcr at a press conference Thursday. "All of our people we-e prepared to lose money at the outset."' To show his confidence, Wismer pointed to the following: 1.

Wismer said the AFL also will give the NFL a run for the TV money in the Los Angeles area. H said the Los Angeles Chargers will shifl their home games to San Diego's Balboa Stadium, and votes. Paul Hornung of the Pack ers had 8 votes, while Johnny Unitas and Ray Bern' of Bolt - more, Jimmy Brown of Cleveland and John Crow of St. Louis each had one. Beats Out Lombard! Shaw beat out Vinnie Lombardi of Green Bay, his rival in next Monday's title game, for coach-of-the-year honors, 23 votes to 14. George Wilson of the Lions re ceived two votes. "It's very nice but I can't take credit for it." commented the gentlemanly Shaw upon learning of his selection. "I must pass it on to the group working for me. They did a great deal with what they had to work with."' For the 33-ycar-old Van Brock lin, all-pro recognition finally came in his 12th season. Earlier in the week he was named all- NFL quarterback for the first time in his career. "I'm through," Van Brocklin reiterated when he learned of his latest honor. "It's a good time to make my move.

Caant On 1 I niriama Hrallnc Oil f-hant IU lin Script; Retire Ex-Duck May Quit Gridiron PHILADELPHIA (AP) - The Green Bay Packers will pit pow er runners Jim Taylor and Paul Hornung against the passing of quarterback Norm Van Brocklin of the Philadelphia 'Eagles in Mon day's National Football League championship game. A sellout crowd of some 67.000 will watch the contest in Frank lin Field with thousands of others looking in on television. The kick off is noon, EST. It could be the last game tor the 34-year-old Van Brocklin and also Eagles' coach Buck Shaw, 61. both of whom have announced their intention to retire. Ironically, both Van Brocklin, a 12-year NFL veteran, and Shaw, who has been coaching for nearly 40 years, came out of retirement to join the Eagles in 1958 and guide them from a last place finish that year to the Eastern Conference crown this season. Green Bay has been established an early 6-5 favorite on the basis of a solid line and the running of Taylor, a 215-pound fullback from LSU who finished second in rush ing in the NFL. and Hornung, also a passing and place-kicking threat who finished seventh in rushing and set a new NFL scor ing record. But some observers feel it's a tossup while others favor the Eagles because of Van Brocklin's precision passing. Shaw is hoping for a dry field because he feels a muddy or soggy field would be advantageous to the Packers. In leading the Packers to their first western conference title since 1944. Taylor ground out 1.101 yards while Hornung, the 215 pound triple-threat halfback from Notre Dame, picked up 671. Horn ung set the new league scoring record with 176 points on 15 touchdowns. 15 field goals and 41 conversions, surpassing the old mark of 138 set by Don Hutson of Green Bay in 1942. Van Brocklin is virtually the Eagles entire offensive attack. The former Oregon great who played in four championship games during his -nine seasons with the Los Angeles Hams tin- ished second in the league in touchdown passes (24), total yards gained (2,471)' and average gain (8.70 on 153 completions in z4 at tempts). Both teams have been practic- ine all week but have been hampered by snow, rain and cold. Philadelphia and Green Bay did not meet each other this year. But in previous games, the Pack ers hold a 13-1 edge. The last time the two teams met was in 1958 with Green Bay winning 38- 35. This will be the first meeting between the two clubs for the title. Green Bay last won the NFL chamoionshiD in 1944 by defeat' ing New York 14-7. The Eagles did it last in 1949 with a 14 0 yictory over Los Angeles.

Heavyweight King Early Choice To Seat Challenger In Rematch NEW YORK (AP) Heavy-I weight champion Floyd Patterson today was made an early line 3-1 favorite to beat Ingemar Johans son in their third title fight at the Miami Beach Convention Hall March 20. This should bring a big smile to Ingo's face, since the betting choice in thif rivalry has been knocked off twice. Patterson was an almost pro hibitive 5-1 favorite to win the first fight June 26, 1959, at Yan-i kee Stadium.
