In Movies: Jim Brown Now faking Cues From Film Director, Rather Than Coach LONDON - Jim Brown faked the defensive man left, went to his right and caught the wob bly pass for his second touch down of the day. The play and the moves were good considering the graceful Cleveland fullback was wear ing floppy boots without laces and droopy army fatigues. A further handicap was the play ing field itself—a cobble-ston ed courtyard of a 13th century English castle littered with mo tion picture equipment and tech nicians. It’s the same Jim Brown whc holds nearly every NFL rush ing record, but. today he’s tak ing his cues from film direc tor Robert Aldrich rather tna.u Cleveland coach Blanton Coi ner. And his new teammates are Academy Award winners Lee Marvin and Ernest Borg nine instead of Frank Ryan and Gary Collins. 1® '' ' | | Quality Gifts from l | Johnson-Lambe f | * \ TENNIS RACKETS I } j Bancroft ''Auj»i»" Fin* Recife* Strung Rorl ? | | T * Oovii ''lmperial ' Top Grade F'em*. \ TENNIS BALLS • 1j j : | | BestGrode— Spolding, Pennsyl- IS ?

He had a small part in a forgettable western several years ago, but as he says, “this is a big part with a lot of substance.’’ “The picture is set in England just before D. Day. The Dirty Dozen are 12 condemned Gl’s who have been convicted of crimes like murder, rape and armed robbery. We’re given a chance for a pardon if we suc cessfully complete what a mounts to a suicide mission in enemy territory just before the invasion. The story is about what happens to these 12 mean guys during training and the mission itself. The dozen are all tough and sneaky sort of a combination Sam Huff and Johnny Unitas.’’ Brown approaches his acting with the same intenseness he approaches football. When he not actually working in a scene, he spends his time studying the script or watching his co~ stars - Marvin, Borgnine, Robert Ry an, John Cassavetes, Clint Wal ker, Charles Bronson and Tel ly Savalas, Producer Ken Hyman and star Lee Marvin agree that Brown could enjoy a “long and happy career as an actor.’’ ■ 'Not onl\ does the guj nave a tremendous amount otdrive,’’ says the voung producer, •■'•he’s got all the tools.

W. Ligon High School Little Blues last Wed nesday night here, as Lemuel Jones’ four-hit pitching and Dennis Peebles amazing hitting ability, led Ligon to a 4-3 win over the Greensboro squad and the North Carolina High School Athletic Conference State baseball title. Peebles, the Little Blues* rightfielder, tripled in the fourth to push acrosjs Ligon’s first run. He later scored the second run of the inning on a single by Jimmy Robin son.

Jones, who went the distance for his eighth win of the year, struck out eight and walked only two.

The I.igon victory stopped a bid by Dudley for its third State title in a row. It was I Agon's first champ ions hi p since 19G2 and the fifth for the Little Blues in the last nine years. The win gives Ligon a final sea son mark of If -1 under Coach •' '--to williams while Dudley fin ishes 15-2. Williams was impressed by bv the play of Peebles. “He did a tremendous job in the Held as well as at bat. He mate several good catches which helped a lot.” Williams also noted, “I thought we could hit Cummings. Therefore we went into the game as first’ ball hitters and it paid off.” Williams thought his players were extremely tough in the playoffs, especially Jones. He related, “Lemuel is the best lefthander I have had at I.igon, He pitched every game in the playoffs and did a great job.” On -winning the title Williams said, “We won the close ones and that’s what counted.” Negro To Coordinate Health Serv.

If that 's not great acting, I don’t know what is., but, seriously, if Jimstayswith it, I think he'll be a great one.” Actor Telly Savalas -- who plays a Negro-baiting racist in the picture—tells another story about Brown the actor. “There s a big scene during our training where I’m sitting next to Jimmy. The Major asks if we've got any ques tions about procedures. My line is 'do we have to eat with niggers?’ and Jim is sup posed to jump me. We rehears ed it once and everything was fine. During the actual take he hit me so hard we knock ed o- er the cameraman and as sistant director.” Brown is not so complimen tary about his new profession and candidly admits he's still learning. “These guys—Marvin, Ryan, Cassavetes—they’ re the pros, ’ ’ h says, “and I’m the rookie. The first day on the set 1 felt outclassed in the company of two Oscar winners and a dozen other stars. Then Bob Aldrich told me I was doing fine.

Springer also hosts a Sunday afternoon Sit-In at theClubSta dtum which features some of the grooviest jazz muslcans in the Motor City. On hand recently was Hindle Butts, former drummer with Aretha Franklin, and Wayman Stoudemire, Detroit's finest tenor saxman. Many of the local musicians have been enlisted in the area poverty program and are teaching teenagers the joys of jazz. Harold McKinney, Detroit's foremost musical genius and one of the finest pianists in the nation, heads up a neighbor hood community aid cultural program, and vocalist Laura Johnson has become an Integral part of the project. On a much subtler plane, De troit is still a swinging town for Jazz buffs and I was thrill ed to see so many of my old buddies still pushing and pro moting jazz.
