FARKASSTARS IN
REDSKINS DRILL
FOR RAMS TILT
BY FRANK BUCK" O'NEILL
ANDY Farkas is now "Galloping

By FRANK BUCK" O'NElLL
Andy Farkas is now "Galloping
ANDY" to the Redskins. No other
word adequately describes the run
ming style of the rampaging
Hungarian boy who stepped out
of the backfield of Detroit Uni
versity to win top ranking among
the rockies of the year. And boys,
does he gallop!
He took a dozen forward passes
in yesterdays practice drill and
outran Charles Malone. That's
something, for when the lanky
Texan really stretches out, he Just
naturally goes to town. But
Farkas ran away from Charley in
race for a forward pass.
Farkas gathers that ball to his
chest and starts rolling. He puts
the pressurt on his interference
by almost running up their backs.
CONSUMING DESIRE
Andy has a consuming desire to
do two things. He wants to be-
come great editor when he's
through playing football, but first
he wants to beat the Detroit Lions
on October 16 when the Redskins
90 to Detroit. Andy'S folks publish
a Hungarian newspaper out there
in Detroit, and Andy is going to
write a special column which he
modestly believes will aid in filling
the stadium.
Charley Malone gave brilliant
exhibition of pass receiving and
cutting away from defense men
yesterday before the Redskins
went through long defensive
dummy drill against Cleveland
plays. The work of the team was
better in streaks than 1t was
against Brooklyn, but there was
room for improvement.
Bill Hartman was in the run-
ming backs position, with Ernie
Pinckert blocking and FarkaS al
ternating between the wing and
the running back. The drill
brought out the fact that FarkaS
can catch passes as well as anyone
on the squad and, once he gets
his hands on the ball, he fairly
flies with it.
PREPARES FOR DEAL
Ray Flaherty is preparing to
make a deal that will add power
to the Redskins. He had one on
the fire which involved one of his
forwards, but something happened
at the last moment, and the pro-
posed trade fell through. However,
Flaherty kept the wires humm1ng
last night, it was said, and some
thing may develop before the
game with Cleveland.
"Jackrabbit" Jim Abbott was
shipped away to the Hazleton club
last night, and Roy Young, OF
Texas A. & M, officially became
a member of the team. He is a
tackle. With Turk Edwards limp
ing badly, and not likely to start
the game with Cleveland, Young
will see plenty of action against
the Rams.
Max Krause reports that his
charley horse is working out in
fine style and that he will be able
to play. Flaherty has added some
especially delled pads to
Krauses equipment and the
stumpy, but powerful Make will

1t seems that Erich Holbein who

the Senator's secretary several
