four minutes Of play. That was
when Max Krause, one of our most
dependable veteran backs, fumbled
while running with the ball on
Washington's 25-yard line. The
Giants recovered and thus set the
stage for Ward Cuffs field goal
from the 17-yard line a few mo-
ments later. The three pointer,
as it developed, meant victory, but
the game might have ended in a
TT tie If that tumble hadn't been
made.
A couple of other breaks against
us came in the second quarter
when. on successive plays, Ed JUS

passes on their finger-tips before

Mental Lapses by Marshall,

you know what happened. Dale Bur-
netts interception gave the Giants
possession which they never lost dur
the final minutes and 40 seconds.
Whether Sammy will be fined for dis
obeying Flaherty's order is something
Flaherty will have to decide.
In order to comprehend Owner
George Marshall's mental miscue, it is
necessary to 60 back exactly three
weeks ago today when one John (BulD

applied to him for job. Karcis, it
seemed, had been among the "purgees"
Of Pirate house cleaning which
took place after the Pittsburghers had
lost their first three games Upon
hearing his plea for q trial with the
Redskins, the former Carnegie star was
informed politely that the Indians
roster was up to the league limit and
they'd rather string along with their
untried rockies.
Well, if Karcis wanted to make the
Redskins sorry. he succeeded in doing
it yesterday. All the 225-pound full
back did was to gain 81 yards in 13
attempts and recover a Redskin fum-
BILE in his own territory. Half a dozen
times he broke away for yards or
more and he was as easy to stop as a
runaway baby tank.
Red Krause Best on Defense.

minutes of play when Ward Cuff, the
Giants field goal artist, booted one
across from the 17-yard line for 80
lead. The Redskins got those points
back to spare when one of Baugh's
six completed passes went for touch
down. Bob Masterson taking it on the
New York IS and romping over for the
score. 1t was perfect throw and no
Giant was near the receiver. Master
son also added the seventh point on
placement.
Statistics will show that the Red
skins slightly outplayed the Giants but
when the New York steam-roller
started to roll in the last quarter there
was no stopping of the winning march.

over a five-year period and Hank Soar

marched 70 yards to score Danow-
skis 20-yard pass to End Jim Howell,
who eluded Safety Man Andy Farkas
to step over from the 1-yard line, was
the pay-off. Cuffs conversion was SUI
perfluous.
! If any Redskins deserve special men,
ton besides Farkas, whose entrance
into the game once more served to
put new life in the Indians, and Hart
man, whose passing is improving with
every start, they are two linesmen-
Henry (Red) Krause and Jim Barber.
Krause, in this observers estimation,
was the best defensive man on the
field He knocked down most of Da-
nowskis 10 incompleted passes and
made as many tackles as any other
player Barber, too, was source Of
strength both extensively and defen-
sively.

KAN DOC SPURTS
TO SAIL VICTORY
0vertakes Lady Avon to
Lead 2O-Footers' Race
by 20 Seconds.
By MALCOLM LAMBORNE, Jr.

DR.. Albert Pagan's sloop Kan Doc,
coming from behind on the second
lap of smile course around Hains
Point, nosed out the champion Lady
Avon, sailed by Judge Prentice Edring-
ton, to take the race for 20-foot re-
stricted boats yesterday of Hains
Point. 1t was the second weekly event
in the fall series of the Potomac River
Sailing Association.
The record high of 81 boats set the
previous Sunday was dropped to Al
starters when several of the little
moths. finding the 15-mile northwest
erly too much for them, swamped be-
fore the start. Quick work on the
part of the harbor police saved the
wet. though unharmed, sailors.
The Lady Avon, overtaken on the
beat up to the Army War College
marker, was never able to regain her
early lead and finished "a seconds
astern Of Kan Doc.
Fourteen comets, the largest single
class, were led home by Werner
Smythe's Sassy Too and Ernie Covert's
Escapade, both local champs last
spring Escapade's second place was
in doubt until the last Is feet, when
she suddenly surged ahead of the So
Big, skippered by Clyde Cruit, beating
the latter out by a scant second.
Bill Whites Frolic, newest comet
threat and winner last week, was lead
ing the pack until her sail accidentally
touched the flag on one of the turning
marks. White did the honorable thing
and withdrew.
In the snipe class, George Wilcox's
Bimmie was so far ahead at the finish
that there appeared to be no second.
George bankers Sink Quick not only
was first to finish in the A handicap
division, but also saved her time on
the other eight boats to win on cor
rected time.
In the B handicap class, corrected
time gave the decision to Paul Toma-
Inns Tern, with the venerable Kitti-
wake of Brent Drane second. Enos
Rays Flying Cloud was the first boat
to finish, but she fell to third position.

Had Sammy Baugh been at his
best, you might have seen as many
great passers as ever appeared in a
single game together. But because
Sammy had been out of action for
nearly month, his timing was OIL.
Thus, he wasn't able to look as
good as Ed Danowski of the Giants
or our ewn Bill Hartman. Danowski
gave great passing exhibition, TAX
ing his time in locating receivers
and hurting with uncanny accuracy.
Hartman gave as game a perform
ance as I ever have seen and
proved to me again that he is q
great competitor.
Well, the pro game isn't like the
collegiate one in which one defeat

three games last year and still won
the Eastern eaaamplonship.

feated team in the National Football
League today.
Beaten by their arch rivals. the New
York Giants, 10-7, before a crowd Of
IS, 900 which paid record gross gate
for football of SAL l,42l.05 at Griffith
Stadium yesterday, the champions can
console themselves with the knowledge
that the Chicago Bears also were
beaten for the first time this season
(and by the Cleveland Rams, of all
teamsD and that every league member
in both the East and West now has
lost at least one game.
That doesn't alter the fact that had
the mental processes Of the Messrs
Marshall, Flaherty and Baugh worked
little differently yesterday and the
not too distant past, there might be
q different story to tell today. But
that's not taking thing from the
Giants, who, finding themselves in the
same situation as the Redskins were
in the last game Of the 1887 season,
where defeat meant oblivion, fought
desperately and deserved to win the
victory which kept alive their chances
in the current title chase.

Although there were many con-
tributing factors, the chief reason,
as I see it, why the Redskins lost
yesterdays game to the Giants
was that we didn't rise to the
occasion as did the New Workers.
That is not to say that We played
bad footballs we did against
Brooklyn three weeks ago when
We had to be content with a tie
but we were Indifferent.
The Redskin line played we'll at
times. but relaxed altogether about
10 minutes during the game. The
Giants capitalized on our slackness
during those 10 minutes and won.
