Improved Blocking by Line,
Better Tackles Confirm
Progress by Skins.
BY RAY FLAHERTY,

Dy mn
Coach. Champion washinston Redskins.
Forty-seven thousand Washington
football fans may say "oh, yeah?"
but not until you've seen the moving
pictures Of our game with Cleveland
Sunday can you truly appreciate Andy
Farkas. Oh, know you who saw the
game realize Andy is a great back,
but just how great he really Is can
be seen only by watching him In
action on the screen.
Just for the fun Of 1t We ran the
pictures backwards last night and you
can't imagine how revealing they are
in reverse motion. Andy's shifting
lodging, twisting stride stands out all
the more clearly until you stop mar
yelling at him, but at the tackle who
brings him down.
Drive in Blocking Improves.
It's needless to say that the boys
had q far more enjoyable evening at
the Show last night than they did
. week ago when they saw the Brook
lyn game unfolded on the screen. The
f1lm showed that our close line block
ing was excellent, although we still
were little weak on downfield block
ing. We were hitting the secondary
and safety men all right, but we
weren't driving through, clearing them
out Of the way entirely like we should
have been doing. The boys also could
see for themselves that their tachling
was improved, although-as one frank
ly remarked-there's still room for
improvement.
Some one has said that Bill Hart
man seemed to have plenty Of time
to get the ball away Sunday. That
was because of good blocking, for tihe
and again the boys could see them
selves bucking over would-be tacklers
rushing in to harry Hartman.

one Of the games leading ball-carriers.
And Coach Ray Flaherty remarked
that now that the boys realized how
easy it could be when every man did
his part in . spirited. workmanlike
manner they seemed determined to do
1t again.
Redskins Leading Scorers.
As . result Of the 81 points they
rolled up Sunday, league statistics
show the Indians to be the leading
scorers Of the 10 teams. The Redskins
70 points for three games is is more
than the Philadelphia Eagles have
scored and "a more than the Pitts
burgh Pirates, whos have played four
games. In yardage gained the Red
skins figures of 953 are "a more than
the Pirates and, among the teams hav-
ing played the same number of games
as the champions, Cleveland's 1872 is
closest.
