WANTS RAISE SYRACUSE, N.Y (AP)--Full- back Jim Brown says he would like to play for Cleveland Browns "two, three more years" but that he wants more money.

He claims he is in \for extra work because of Cleve- land's trade of Bobby Mitchell to Washington Redskins for draft rights to Syracuse's Ernie Davis. days, The Blueshirts can't seem to buy a win. FIVE WINS IN 24 They dropped a 3-0 decision to Detroit Red Wings the other night, sending statisticians scur- rying for record books. The story isn't a bit flattering. It was their 16th loss in the last 24 games, they have won only five and tied three. More than that, they've dropped steadily from first to fifth place after a great start when they won 10 of their first 20 games, lost five and tied five, Even hte hard-hitting York sports columnists, who have had a tendency to fluff off NHL goings-on the last few years, are feeling a bit senti- mental about coach Doug Har- vey and his troops, Dan Parker of The Mirror wrote a sentimentai piece after Rangers dropped their sixth straight. He went back a few years to reminisce about the Rangers of the 1930s and the famous names on New York clubs of that era. NEED NEW COOKS Here's what Parker had to say: "The trouble with the Ran- gers is that Ching Johnson and Taffy Abel aren't on the defence line. What's wrong with the Blueshirts is that Frankie Bou- cher is no longer their centre. HAGGIS BY NAME NOT BY NATURE PORT HOPE, Ont.

Parker has it figured out. The Rangers, he says, "need depth more than anything else." If they had depth, such as Mont- real and Toronto, they could atone for a mistake and _ rally to win. "But with weak re- serves, a team starts pressing under such circumstances a usually goes to pieces . . ." He adds: "The team isn't as bad as the recent slump indi- cates, There's nothing wrong with it that a few outstanding rookies wouldn't cure, and the cure will be available next sea- son at the latest and maybe be- H lo fore tive' in the NHL needs is a pair| over.
