Trade Is Seen as Only
Wayfo Marshall
ToLand Kicker
Games With Giants Show
3-Point Specialist Is
Essential in Pro Loop
BY BILL DISMER, Jr.

Despite definite ideas of whom
they would like to land in the an
nual selective college draft to take
place at Milwaukee Saturday,
neither Owner George Marshal nor
Coach Ray Flaherty knows where to
begin to look for the Redskins only
outstanding need-an established
field gold kicker.
1t can and probably will be argued
from now until Doomsday whether
Bo Russell's last-minute attempt at
a winning field goal was good
in last Sundays game with the
Giants at New York, but the fact
remains that had the Redskins
possessed reliable kicker who could
have split the uprights, they would
have won the Eastern championship
and without debate over ques-
tionable decision.
If Marshall is not to be disillu-
stoned in his belief that the Redskins
will win the championship next year,
then it behooves him to acquire
reputable booter. For 1899 records
show that the Redskins attempted
IL field goals in 10 games this season
and made good on only two. Con-
trasted with the almost universal
1000 field goal averages of teams
boasting proven kickers. the Red
skins average in that respect of .167
speaks for itself.
Lack Of Kicker Hurts Twice.
Redskin statistics reveal Russell
and Bob Masterson each to have
kicked only one field goal out of five
and six attempts, respectively. Andy
Farkas, the only other Indian to at
tempt one, failed in his lone effort.
True, the Redskins didn't need
the meager three points provided by
field goals in most of their games
this year when they were winning
by anywhere from to AZ points.
but they would have come in very
useful in both games with the
Giants. either one of which could
have been won with kicker.
That 90 tie with the champions
here in october might have been
transformed into a victory had the
Redskins had Ward Cuff. Ken
Strong, Jack Manders. Tiny Enge-
bretsen or Ralph Kercheval on their
squad, for they were deep in Giant
territory on at least three occasions
And it would have been 20-1 against
one Of that caliber failing to place
one squarely through the center of
the goal posts at New York last
Sunday when the Redskins had their
chance to kick from the 15-yard line.
Mind you, we'll never be con-
vinced that Russell's kick missed
completely last Sunday and we know
the Auburn rookie gave all he had
in that trying moment, but what
was a rough spot for a youngster
would have been mere routine for
veteran place-kicker like those
above mentioned.
No Booter in Sight.
Flaherty admitted today that he
didn't know of a single reputable
three-pointer who would be in
cluded in Saturdays draft of college
seniors. In that case we think that
it's up to the Redskins to make q

It is a damnable lie, spread by my
enemies (Whose name is legion, OF
something very similar) that l ac-
cepted $50 from a player last year
to put him on my all-America. This
department never has accepted gifts
In the form of cash from all-America
players. Of course, if they wish tc
take advantage of my good nature
and force some little trinket on me
q new car, Diesel yacht or 80
acres of shooting land-that's their
business. If I had my way I would
not take so much as 1910 U-boat
for my services.
A truce, however, to shilly-shally-
ing. Here is the official all-America
team for 1899, compiled with pains
taking care from my own observa-
tions. with the assistance OF a
Nation wide staff of scouts. eye
doctors, osteopaths and billiard
room operators:
End-Vyacheslaff M. Molotoff.
Tackle-Elliott Roosevelt.
Guard-Lulu Laverne.
Center-Harry Thomas.
Guard-Wilbur F. Claffey.
Tackle-FritZ Kuhn.
End-Woodrow Wilson Fortescue
Quarterback-James j. Johnston.
Halfback-Challedon
Halfback-Kayak II.
Fullback-Nile Kinnick.
Most all-America teams are mere
" collections of stars. We feel that
our team has real cohesion. 1t can
run, kick, pass, block, tackle, read
and write, and it also has spirit
drive, hustle and money in the bank

Johnston Coils SignoIs
For Himself. Others

We believe the backfield is hard
to top. James j. Johnston, at quar-
terback, not only called the signals
for his own large stable of fighters,
but also for everybody else's fighters.
If they didn't all take his advice,
it was not Mr.. Johnstons fault.
Challedon and Kayak II, the half
backs, were in a class by them
selves as runners. AS for Kinnick-
let's see, Miss Davenport, where are
my notes?-oh, yes, Kinnick was a
good football player.
Our second team has L. S. Mac
Phail, Deanna Durbin, Hamilton
Fish, and an unidentified bystander
in the backfield, and up ahead Of
them the highly touted Maginot
Line, averaging 215 pounds from
tackle to tackle. Our message to
the whole squad is, go out there
and win your letter in life.

after time, and succeeded in driving
them back into their own territory.

says one scout, who goes on to say
that he didn't see any Firms, either,
owing to poor visibility.
Molotoff's running mate, Woodrow
Wilson Fortescue, Radio City usher,
led his ball carrier down the aisle
for score after score. and broke up
the enemy interference on the de-
fense. Elliott Roosevelt tackled
everything in sight. The other
tackle, Fritz Kuhn, was second to
none at taking them out, until
forced to the sidelines late in the
season.
Wilbur F. Claffey, big and popu-
lar subtreasury guard, was better
than a stone wall this year, and
for the third successive season the
Government failed to lose nickel.
Lulu Laverne. third from the left
in the undefeated chorus of George
Whites Scandals" was the best
player in strong line, while Harry
Thomas, busy defensive center,
fought off every attack on his posi-
ton by refusing to answer on the
grounds that it might intimidate
him.

Elliott Roosevelt Urges
Business New Deal Peace


FORT WORTH, Tex, Aug. 25.-
Elliott Roosevelt believes that in
view of European war threats busi-

patch up their differences.
Il truly believe" the radio COM
mentator said last night, that now
is the time for New Dealers to forget
their animosity against business, and
now is the time for New Dealers
to forget their hatred for everything
which the administration cham
pions, labor to cease its war with
industry and for all men in all
walks of life to forget and forgive
the mistakes of Others"
He said President Roosevelt had
been accused of desiring to establish
a dictatorship in .the United States
and defended his father by declar-
ing. Il believe he would cheerfully
die tomorrow in defense" of the
country's present form of govern
ment.
In mentioning European affairs
he likened the Russian
aggression pact to two gang
sters saying. Il won't cut in on your
racket if you'll leave my racket
alone" and counseled this country
to stay out of war despite sympathy
for England and France.
