NEW YORK. Oct. 1.-THE full
s5anpoWer of the National Football
League, which is almost enough to
cause minor earthquake when it
starts TO move. will be seen in ac-
ton for the first time this season
tomorrow as the circuit presents a
f1ve-game program
The New York Giants and Chi
cago Bears. undefeated leaders of
the two divisions, encounter oppo-
sition that shouldn't be too trouble
some-the Philadelphia Eagles and
Chicago Cardinals. That leaves the
tussle between the runner-up
Brooklyn Dodgers and Green Bay
Packers at Milwaukee as the head
liner
Giants. Bears Finally at Home.
Each of the headline teams has
been beaten once, the Dodgers, 80,
by the Washington Redskins last
week and the Packers by the Bears
a week earlier They're not con-
vinced, however, that they'll have
to keep on playing second fiddle all
season and today's encounter will
have an important bearing upon
their final ratings.
Both the Giants and Bears will
be playing their first home games
except for All-Star contests. So
will the Detroit Lions, who will try
to get out of laSt-place tie with
the Cardinals at the expense of the
Cleveland Rams.
Chibears Face Tough Game.
The Pittsburgh Steelers, who face
Washington in the days other game,
will get chance to show how much
improvement their new coach, Buff
Donelli. has been able 10 accomplish
in week. They've played three
games so far and lost them all.

figure to have the more strenuous
afternoon. Jimmy Councilman has
assembled what is called the best
Cardinal team in five years with
Mad Marshall Goldberg as the
leader of its attack. The Cards lost
to Green Bay, 14-l3, last week after
leading until the final minutes.
