Because the Redskins will enter
their first league game next Sunday
all but totally untested in outside
competition, no method Of judging
their chances of retaining the East
ern championship is available.
On paper, the Tribe seems to be
stronger in every department than
it was last year. when it won 9
of its IL league games. But because
one-third of the current squad are
new players there is no definite
formula for predicting how 1t will
operate under fire.
That's why we think 1t was big
mistake not to schedule at least
one preseason game with team
of National League caliber Those
all-stars the Skins met in Los An
geles were no better than any group
of seniors hastily collected from
half dozen colleges, and the Red

Redskins Apparently Better,
But Infested and Hard to
Judge Going Into Opener

the Redskins win both games. They
could. indeed. lose both and still
win the Eastern title again. That
hardly would be likely, however. in
view of the blow such double
dose of defeat would be to their
morale.
More important. We think. is the
kind of showing the Redskins make
against the New Workers and Brook
lyns. If they should beat either de-
cisivelv, their chances would be ex-
tremely bright. for neither the
Giants nor the Dodgers figure to be
licked by any great margin by any
team this year Their respective
exhibitions against the champion
Bears indicated that. Conversely,
If the Redskins should lose one or a
pair of hard-fought battles. the out
look wouldn't be exactly hopeless.
Two Tests at Outset.
Considering the youthfulness and
new blood among the Redskins-plus
the fact that Steve owen and DR..
Sutherland honestly believe their
teams have good chances to usurp
the Redskins throne-we'd think
that Coach Ray Flaherty might be
satisfied with an even split in his
first two games. II the Indians scalp
the Giants. however. Flaherty
wouldn't be content with anything
less than a victory over the Dodgers.
If both games are close. We don't
think Washington fans can expect
to see more than three newcomers
in either. One OF the rookie ends
will pair with one of the three vet
erans in the second and fourth
periods. and Rookie Tackle Fred
Davis will go in with Bill Young
The third newcomer who definitely
will see action against both teams
