BIC TACKLE'SLOSS
BLOW TO CHAMPS
Purchase From Pirates Of
Filchock, Fine Back, Seen
Some Consolation.
By BILL DISMER. Jr.

As II boarding q train for Detroit,
whose Lions they never hav, beaten,
weren't discouraging enough, the
Washington Redskins received a stag
eering blow today when they learned
that Turk Edwards, their captain and
"strong tackle, would be lost for Sun
days game in the automobile city.
Edwards is out with practically the
same kind Of shoulder injury that kept
Slingin' Sam Baugh on the bench for
month"; separation OF the clavicle
which connects the breast bone and
the shoulder blade. The only differ
ence between Edwards and Baugh's
separations is that Turks is at the
lower end of the elavicle while Baugh's
.was at the upper,
In stating that Bill Young, Wee
Willie Wilkin or Micky Parks - who
would be shifted from his regular
center position to tackle-would take
Edwards place in the Redskin line,
Coach Ray Flaherty admitted that the
big fellow could play in pinch, but
that it would be extremely painful.
Filchock Seen Help.
But while the Redskins thus pre-
pared to do battle without Edwards
offensive charge and deadly tacsling,
they were cheered no end by the news
that Frank Filchock. one of the Big
Tens best backs last year when he
played with Indiana, was 70 join them
as the result of cash deal with the
Pittsburgh Pirates. The release of
Filchock. who played against them in
the All-Star game at Chicago. came as
the result OF move by the Pirates to
curtail expenses now that they appar-
entity are out Of the running for the
Eastern championship.
Filchock. whose passing as a quar-
terback with the Hoosiers for three
years caused the Pirates to draft him
last fall, might have been a handy
man to have had around last Sunday,
as it was he who threw two touch
down passes to beat the New York
Giants for Pittsburgh week ago last
night. The newest member of the
Redskins is 81 years old, weighs 1875
pounds and stands S feet 1012.
Lions Tough Foes for Skins.
His coming means that the cham
pions must cut one player adrift be-
fore meeting the Lions Sunday. To-
gether with Tillie Manton. field goal
expert. who was signed yesterday, the
Redskins now number 81 players, one
over the league limit.
The Redskins train is due to ar
rive in Detroit tomorrow morning,
and the champions will go imme-
.diately to their sequestered headquar-
ters at the Dearborn Inn in Dearborn,
nearly 10 miles from the city limits.
Plenty of work lies ahead if they are
to win Sunday, for it is matter of
record that the Redskins have scored
only points in five games with the
Lions since 1892.

Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn, who have
banked largely on Mamakos to needle
interest in the fight game here during
the indoor season.
Ahearn, left without local drawing

Twomey, having planned to employ
Steve in a 10-round bout against Phil

He will obtain Vincent Pimpinelli of
New York as an opponent for Furr,

is dismal.
