Will Return

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 10 (AP)
Buddy Parker agreed today
to return as coach of the Pitts
burgh Steelers for the 1868 sea-
son.
A Steeler spokesman said
Parker came to terms after an
informal discussion with Art
Rooney, owner Of the club.
Parker had been on the last
leg of a five-year contract in
1862 when he coached the
Steelers into second place in
the Eastern Division of the Ma
tional Football League with a
9-5 record, the best mark in
the 29-year history of the team.
Parker limited in mid-season,
but he changed his mind after
the Steelers won six of their

the NIL Playoff Bowl.

Experimental
TOpweight Is
Never Bend

NEW YORK, Jan. 10 (AP).-
Never Bend, the Cain Hoy
Stable colt who was beaten in
the worlds two richest horse
races, was named topweight
with 1875 pounds yesterday in
the 1863 issue Of the Expert
mental Handicap.
In making his ratings of the
1862 crop of 2-year-olds, and
projecting their potential as
3-year-olds this season, Handi-
capper Thomas E. Trotter
defied the outcome of the
Arlington Washington Futurity
and the Garden State Stakes.
Trotter, Handicapped for the
Jockey Club, rated Rex c. Ellis
worth's California bred Candy
Spots and George D. Widener's
Crewman right behind Never
Bend, each with 125 pounds.
Candy Spots beat Never Bend
in the $357,250 Futurity Sep
TENDER 8 at Arlington Park,
while Crewman upset the Cain
Hoy colt in the mud November
10 in the $273,530 Garden
State. However, Never Bend
was selected as 2-year-old
champion in all the polls.
Never Bend, dark bay son
of Nasrullah-Lalun, by Died
dab, won seven of 10 starts and
earned $402, 969-a record for a
juvenile. He was bred by his
owner, Capt. Harry F. Guggen-
helm, who won the Kentucky
Derby with Dark Star in 1853
and hopes he has another clas-
sic contender in Never Bend.
His victories included the
Champagne and Cowdin Stakes
at Belmont Park and the Fu-
turity at Aqueduct.
Candy Spots, by Nigro-
mante-Candy Dish. was unde-
feated in three starts. Crew.
man, by Sailor-Twelve O'Clock,
had won three in a row before
the Garden State, but was I'M
placed in the Saratoga Special
and Hopeful Stakes at Sara

The busiest juvenile to be
rated highly was Golden Tri-

six of l6 starts, including the
Remsen and Au Revoir Stakes,
and had five seconds and three

Then there was the search
for a motor boat to accompany

way and supply food, directions

village, volunteered to paddle

AlligatOrs Problem

Alligators have a liking for
fresh meat, but not particular
ly the human type. However,
after the sun goes down, these
creatures become less choosy
and more irritable. Thus, a
swimmer, although trying his
best to stay on a dimly-lit
course marked by buoys, could
easily disturb or run into what
would appear to be a drifting
log. This thought, more than
any. caused the others to dock
after dark.
Alligators. sharks and stumps
that lowered dangerously be-
low the water line outside the
canal were Just a few Of the
hazards that confronted the
ambitious Oshiver, who says
simply, Il Just wanted to see II
l could do IL"
Some Of his biggest obsts-
cles came before Oshiver ever
lowered himself into the water.

Il had never been up the canal
before" he says, mot even in a
boat"
Governor Fleming of Panama
presented Oshiver with a mas
ter key to the Panama Canal in
the grade OF self-propelled
navigator in a ceremony the
following day.
Forced TO Pay Toll
But l had to pay a Ascent
toll fee," Oshiver says smiling.
The swimmer was officially
measured and it was deter
mined to charge him for one
laden ton. However. half of the
90-cent fee was refunded be-
cause he did not pass through
the Canals locks.
Oshiver first became inter-
ested in long-diStance swim
ming when he enrolled in the
Red Cross So mile swim pro-
gram in connection with Presi-
dent Kennedy's physical fitness
plan.
After a while, working out at
the Naval Laboratory pool be-
came fun instead of mere exer-
else. Physical fitness slipped to
the background as the obses-
sion to paddle farther and far
Their took over.
Il was never tired after
working out" Oshiver says. Il
kept wanting to see how far l
could swim. kept progressing
until I just had to try some.
Jnlng Dig.
II thought about the Canal
in September, even before l
completed my so miles. Mr..
Armstrong suggested the Ches-
apeake Bay, so / swan across 1t
in october. Then l knew was
ready"
This is fair warning. To those
who intend TO swim the Pan
anna Canal, try the Chesapeake
first.
Oshiver's parting advice is
even simpler. Anyone can do
1t, II they will just overcome
the urge to get out OF the
water"
