From the Hamiltonian to the Lagrangean formalism for 1-reducible theories. The Freedman-Townsend model

The paper presents a possible path to the sp(3) BRST Lagrangean formalism for a 1-reducible gauge field theory starting from the Hamiltonian one. This appears to be not at all a trivial attempt and will allow explanation of the structure of generators and the form of the master equations in the Lagrangean sp(3) theories. The Freedman-Townsend model, for which a Lagrangean (covariant) sp(3) theory is important, is presented.
