I'm starting the season with JurgenSen."
THE CREW-CUT FROM DUKE was as
loose as any quarterback you ever saw that
wild and stormy night. He bewildered the
College All-Stars, some of whom made it
big in the pro leagues At one point Jurgen-
sen, trapped as he desperately searched for
a receiver, flipped and completed a pass
behind his back
Later in the NFL season, as Washing
tonians will remember, Sonny found him
self in similar predicament. A big Red
skin, probably Bob Toneff, had hold on
his right arm, his pitching wing. JurgenSen
simply transferred the ball to his left hand
and pitched it. The pass was complete and
it pulled the Eagles out of tight spot.
The Colts had been the passing
champions thanks to Unitas. The Eagles
unseated them. JurgenSen had some expert
receivers going for him, notably Tommy
Mcdonald, but Unitas had his above-average
targets, led by Berry and Moore.
JurgenSen, when you come down to 1t,
turned out to be an extremely fine passer
and a guy who wasn't afraid to take
YELVERTON ABRAHAM TITLE from
Louisiana State has been around the NFL
for a spell. This was his 18th season. AS
it turned out the San Francisco Forty Miners
found themselves so deep in quarterbacks-
John Brodie, Bill Kilmer, Bobby Waters
that no great sense of loss was felt when
they dealt off little to the Giants.
Red Hickey, the coach, was installing
shotgun offense Somehow, little didn't fit,
it was figured. Even when he Joined the
Giants he wasn't the No. l quarterback
Charley Conerly was.
Then in the opener at D. c. Stadium
the Giants, starting Conerly, found them
selves outmatched by the Redskins, of all
people little was rushed into the fray as
Conerly's replacement and certain magic
developed.
Conerly's nose was out of joint. He
fumed on the bench as little pulled the
game out of the fire. And Y. A. continued
to perform his heroics, Sunday after Sum-
day, and Conerly class guy that he is, ac-
cepted his fate. At age IS, hairless, lacking
speed and not even considered by his
contemporaries as sharp passer, little was
purely great.
Next year therell be two other guys
who'll be on top probably. But right now
you can't take thing away from Sonny
Jurgensen and Y. A. little.

Dodd'sSuccesi
In Bowls Stops
Criticism

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Dec
% (AP).-You can't beat sue
cess in the college football
coaching business.
That's why more eyebrows
haven't been raised over Coach
Bobby Dodd's program of pre-
pairing his Georgia Tech team
to meet Penn State in the 17th
annual Gator Bowl game Sat-
urday.
The past two days Coach Rip
Engle has had his 46-man Penn
State squad practicing long
hours on a high school field at
st. Augustine.
Where have Georgia Techs
players been? Still enjoying the
Christmas holiday season al
their homes. Dodd will see then
for the first time in more thar
a week when they assemble thi'
afternoon at the Jacksonvill,
baseball park.
Timetable Upset
He has only today and to-
morrow to polish up timing ant
refresh memories on how tn,
plays are run.
Dodd had planned for a littlI
more practice but his timetabl
was upset by bad weather tn
last week before the holidays.
Dodd never works his squat
hard for a bowl game. yet h
has one Of the best bowl rec
ords going-seven victories ant
one loss. The defeat. came II
the Gator Bowl at the hands o
Arkansas two years ago.
Engle's bowl record at Penl
State is perfect. The Nittan,
Lions defeated Alabama ant
Oregon the past two years IL
the Liberty Bowl.
And Engle doesn't believe tn
apparent contrast in practic
has gained him anything. H
feels the Yellow Jackets got a
much work in the long run a
his Lions.
Impressed by Films
"It sounds like they got onl,
a little practice. but actually i
was as much as we have had,
Engle said. after we quit TO
the season. they had five prac
tices and a game"

There is nothing to beat

THE more I look at thos

"They do everything we'll"
Penn States practices at Fl
Eustis, Va, last week and il

put the Nittany Lions bac'

IN SUGAR BOWL TOURNEY
Terp Cagers Rely on
Greenspon's S Touch
BY STEVE GUBACK
Star Staff Writer

When Maryland opens in the
Sugar Bowl basketball tourna-
ment tomorrow night, it'll be
counting on Jerry GreenSpan's
light touch for points - and
laughs.
Greenspan is the type of guy
who can break up his mates
with his puns or break open a
game with his points. Coach
Bud Millikan is hoping for
more of the latter when the
Terps take on undefeated Mis-
sissippi State in a first-round
skirmish. Louisville and Louisi-
ana State clash in the other
opening night game.
A 6-foot-6, 220-pound Junior
from Newark, N. j., Greenspan
is as important in the Terps'
scheme of things as Spinach is
to muscles. In six games so far,
Greenspan has been the Terps'
leading rebounder four times
and their top scorer twice.
II guess" Millikan says, hes
the major reason why our rec
ord has turned suddenly from
0-3 to 3-3."
Started Terps' Comeback
| Greenspan started the Terps'
comeback with game-high "a
points in the upset over Min
nesota, then did the lasso Job
on Lenny Chappell in the even
more spectacular conquest of
Wake Forest.
Even in the earlier losses,
Greenspan's value wasn't ex-
actly hidden. He sat out most
of the second half against
Georgetown before fouling out
and, significantly, the Terps
: lost a 13-point lead and bowed
in double overtime. He also
fouled out against N. C. State
; after scoring six consecutive
: points and the TerpS dropped
that one in single overtime.
It's no coincidence that Mil
likan wants a ute-going job
,, from Greenspan against Mis-
sissipi State. THAT and q
bunch of rebounds" Millikan
smiles.
Grades Improving
Greenspan's varsity career
actually consists of less than
half a season, which makes his
move into headline status all
, the more remarkable. He didn't
break into the starting Lineup
. last season until the Dixie
!. Classic, then was sidelineo
scholastically in mid-January
His grades were passing. but
his point average wasn't quite
high enough to maintain ath-
letic eligibility.
He regained his eligibility by
attending summer school, but
still hasn't regained his scholar
ship. Lately, though, his grades
have been improving like his
, basketball, which is making ev-
erybody at College Park happy
, He's averaging 1873 points g
game, just a shade behinc
