Farkas, Masterson, Hartman
and Tuckey Hailed as Nev
Heroes of Pro Grid Champs

Of the third quarter and F1aherty
couldn't answer the crowds plea Of
I'VE want Farkas" until the last 5
minutes of the game. But when he
got back in there with Hartman on
that double wingback, the Redskins
were as strong as they Will be until
Baugh. and Smith return.
Hartman seems to be Just what Fla
herty says he is, cool. fast-thinking
back who knows how to play football.
With Farkas. the Redskins have al
most as much deception as they did
last year with Battles and Baugh. for
Hartman can pass or run His heaves
don't have the snap of Baugh's and
half the time they look as if you or
could intercept them, but they find
their mark and that's what counts.
With an end like Charley Malone to
snag them as he was going yesterday.
Washington's aerial attack still is
pretty near tops even without Baugh.
And when the Singer gets back into
action :.
Malone was just about as good a
pass receiver yesterday as you'll find.
! His 6 feet A.. inches seemed to stretch
that much again into the air yester-
day and some of his catches bordered
on the miraculous Even when he was
surrounded entirely. as he was on al
most every pass. he managed to Snag
the ball. And his over-the shoulder
catch for that first touchdown was a
honey.
The Redskins. on the whole, however,
looked dead on their feet in the early
going. Some of the linemen blamed 1t
on the mud, which they said literally
and figuratively gummed up the works,
but they never could get started. The
Dodgers were sending Maniaci-a ter
ror OF a line -crasher if there ever was
one-through the line with success
throughout the game.
Outclassed in Kicking.
In the kicking exchanges the Run
were outclassed badly. Once George
Karamatic got away-a 47-yard punt.
but for the most part boots by Max
Krause and one by Jim Karcher
travelled scarcely 30 yards. On the
other hand, Ralph Kercheval justi-
fed his reputation as the leagues best
punter, and Ace Parker's lengthy boot
on the first play of the game, which
Don Irwin allowed to roll to Wash
ington's 1-foot line, put the Reds in
hole which they didn't get out
until Brooklyn had scored a field goal.
1t was in the quarterbacking de-
partment that the Indians were hard
est up, however, with the mental
disturbances" being most notable in
the waning moments Of the game.
Why. with Farkas ripping off gains

the brand Of ball they played yester-
day. Farkas seems to be the answer
to our prayers-a safety man who can
run that ball back for good gains and
an exceptional blocker.
Bob Masterson deserves paragraph
in himself, Any man that is sent into
the game to prevent it from being lost
and comes through with only seconds
to play as Masterson did yesterday
when he booted that field goal to tie
the score has what it takes. Bob
also did some nice work on the defense
and he did as nice piece of broken
field running as any one could do when
he took Hartman's pass in the second
quarter and put us in scoring position
Tuckey Also Delivers.
He may not have accounted for
what would have been the winning
point through his failure to convert
after our second touchdown, but
don't forget that We wouldn't even
have tied Brooklyn if he hadn't con-
verted after the first 6-pointer.
Dick Tuckey also came through VAL
iantly in the closing minutes Of play
to throw that pass which put us in
position for Masterson to make his
game-tying field goal. Tuckey may
have been little nervous in our first
game. but I still think he's going to
be mighty valuable to U.S.
II the rest Of the team don't think
they were bad, wait until they see the
moving pictures Of the game We took

they think I'm being unduly harsh on
them in this article, we'll let them see
