disbanded officially until late next

lhe game wound up a chapter for
one OF the most colorful and sensa tional
teams in the Capitals sports history.
From nowhere the Redskins charged
to heights they never achieved before
in National League play. In coast
to-coast transforming tour they
grabbed three victories in four games,
and when they bowed. after winning
seven consecutive games, it was no
disgrace.
The Redskins did not remotely re-
semole the team which was acclaimed
as unbeatable IN December. Cliff Bat

Later in the wild afternoon Dick

fighting. and so were Center George
Smith and Don Irwin of the Red
skins. Irwin. whose single punch to
the jaw Of an unidentified Bear caused
his dismissal, got in the best wallop
Of the day.
Bears Not Impressive.
THE Bears apparently like to scrap
and will do so among themselves
upon the slightest excuse. The Red
skins lone touchdown came in the
final three minutes of play when John
Doehring. Bear back, tipped the ball
in the air as he was being tackled.
Wayne Millner of the Skins grabbed
it and raced across for the score. It
was the first and only play involving
Doehring. He was yanked by Halas.
AS he came off the field he walked
up to his coach and announced he
wanted ito quit this lousy ball club"
The game proved two or three
things very conclusively. First. the
Redskins know where lies then
strength. Without Battles, Baugh
and Edwards they are just another
team. Ray Peterson tried vainly to
fill Baugh's shoes as a passer. Bill
Wilkins took over Edwards tackle
post and was guy named Willie
out on the field. Unless Andy Farkas
proves he can fill the bill the Red
skins are apt to have, in Battles, their
only truly dangerous running back.
Irwin is great plunger, but he is not
the will-'o-the-wisp type that is Cliff.
Secondly. the Bears are no great
team. The Redskins made their worst
showing In two years yesterday. They
had no offense and little defense.
Nothing worked right. If the Bears
were any good they could have poured
1t on" but they were lucky the Skins
didn't sneak over a last-secpnd touch
down and grab the game out Of the
fire.
