Players and coaches alike were just
about conceding him berth on

The end situation, however, re-
mains just as muddled as ever,
with every one of the five rockies

their league debut next Sunday,
Detroit opening at Green Bay and
New York at Philadelphia.
Parker Halls 10-yard touchdown
pass to Paul McDonough proved to
be Clevelands winning margin, the
Rams saving the game with several
goal line stands against the re-
juvenated Steelers. The Rams, at
tracing 23,72O spectators to the
Akron Rubber Bowl, quickly moved
ahead on Dan Magnani's 96-yard
touchdown dash with the opening
kickoff. Chet Adams added the
placement and shortly afterward
boosted the lead to 10 to with a
4o-yard field goal.
Bears Top Stubborn Giants.
The Steelers retaliated with As

thereafter. Art Jones scored the
second tally on a 34-yard run and
Jack Sanders converted.
At this point Hall unlimbered his
throwing arm and engineered a
drive which was eliminated with

The Chicago Bears, defending
champions, threw an exhibition
party at the expense of the New

the Bears in the. regular season,

Giants a 60 lead on field goals,
but the New Workers erased this
advantage by donating the Bears
touchdown. Cuff fumbled pass
from center on his own 81, and in
the wild melee for the ball Clyde
Turner, Bear center, recovered and
dashed across for a touchdown.
Jack Manders booted the placement.

Washington fans are callous to
the September showings of various
rockies imported by the Mats, chiefly
because Pitchers Ken Chase and
Joe Krakauskas hollered wolf" as
the leaves turned every season. but
the optimism of President Clark
Griffith at this juncture at least is
understandable
Chase and Krakauskas, the latter
currently obtaining his daily bread
at the expense of the Indians, pre-
sented the Mats an annual autumnal
lift for several successive seasons
| They were downright sensational
in September. but consistently awful
in April, May. June, July and
August.
Griffith's enthusiasm scared like
Biz in the stretch of the season
and he fondly contemplated the
succeeding year, but the spring dis
plays of Chase and Krakky sent his
spirit plunging like the line of 1929
business graph.
Show Exceptional Promise.
Now, though, Griffith has a new
pair of genuinely promising proteges.
In Pitcher Early Wynn and Out
fielder Robert Ortiz the elderly
gentleman has visioned aid to the
Mats and thus far those rockies
have done nothing to disturb his
dream
After four games the sturdy Ortiz
owns an impressive .467 batting aver
age and Wynn has won his only
start convincingly, registering a six
hit, AZ victory over the Athletics
yesterday at Philadelphia as the
Mats swept double e-header. Chase
snatched the opener, 80, with an
other six-hit effort.
Wynn gravitated to the Mats some
what accidentally. Several years
ago while visiting relatives at San
ford, Fla, the husky right-hander
wandered to the scene of the Chat
tanooga baseball school, was al
lowed to pitch some and, as a re-
suit, was signed by Washington
scouts, who reliShed the 16-year-
olds fast ball.
His previous experience had con-
sisted of pitching on the one sand
lot of Hartford, Ala, but with San
ford of the Florida League, Char
lotte of the Piedmont League and
Springfield of the Eastern League
he acquired polish. His is wins
with Springfield, a cellar club, is
mute testimony that he is regarded
as one of the Mats brighter pros
poets.
Particularly pleasing to Manager
Bucky Harris in yesterdays inspec-

he was in trouble in the third inning,
and famed four. He had only one
other bad inning, when three sim
giles and q sacrifice produced the

I LOS ANGELES, Sept. 8-The pos
eible end of Andy Farkas' football
eareer and the auspicious impression
created by Southern CALIFORNIA;
Jack Banta neutralized each other
today as the most important devel-
opments of Saturday nights intra-
squad game at San Diego.
. No matter how bad or slight the
new injury may prove to be,
Farkas' biggest problem will con-
tinue to be what it has been since
he hurt the same knee in an intra-
squad game a year ago-a mental
one. Never since-either last year,
when he played a few minutes of
the last two games, nor this in the
first three weeks of training-has
Andy been genuinely confident that
his knee was as good as ever. Now
that it gave way in the first real
test, it's doubtful if he'll ever lose
his complex about it.
No Sympathy From Teammates.
Some of his teammates are in
clined to think that Farkas babies
himself, and resent the fact that his
complaints are condoned by the
Redskin chieftains. Andy enjoys
poor health" one of them was
heard to say today land the more
you sympathize with him, the worse
he gets"
Although Coach Ray Flaherty and
Trainer Doc Mauro were all for
giving Farkas a couple of days rest
with messages by the trainer before
testing his leg again, the stocky
Hungarian spoke of returning to
Baltimore Immediately to enable a
doctor in Johns Hopkins to examine
his knee thoroughly. Limping no.
ttceably, Andy said that the current
pain was like some one pinching and
holding your knee.
! Prior to being reinjured when
Red Morgan, the opposing half
back, tackled and threw him
heavily, Farkas had looked his old
self in rushing through the East's
line. Several times he went OF
tackle for goodly gains and once
straight through center, dragging
three opponents along full 5 yards
before they could halt him.
IT felt pretty good. too," said
Andy wistfully, land then this had

Any day now representative OF
the Smithsonian Institute will scout
brash Jimmy Dykes Chicago White
Sox and perhaps dicker for some
of his relics. The mouthy manager,
equipped with an odd assortment
of what most baseball men have
labeled trash" has his outfit
mingling with more publicized So
ciety.
There is nothing fashionable
about the White SoX except their
position, four games behind the
league leading Cleveland Indians.
At the moment Chicago is the worst
hitting team in the league and it
stands sixth in fielding, but they
pay off on games won and lost and
in that department the White Sox
are doing very nicely.
With his collection of castoffs
Dykes is shaming clubs with star
studded lineupS. Among his pitch
ers are Pete Appleton and Joe
Haynes. whom the Mats let go with
no display of reluctance, and Buck
Ross and Edgar Smith, whom the
Athletics discarded gleefully at
waiver figures. The AS and Mats
didn't like Bill Dietrich, but he's

At first base is Joe Kuhel. who

ATLANTA May 20.-If next Oc-

Uncle Sans local draft boards. says
veteran Coach Bill Alexander of
Georgia Tech.
Alexander, who was coaching Tech
teams before most of his boys were
born-this is his 22d year-thinks
it'll be a great season for pre-draft-
age sophomores. And he says, pre-
ciSion goes out the window when
expediency comes in the door.
"Football?" snorts Alex. It'll be
wild as a turkey! A lot of sopho-
mores who would have warmed the
bench for year are going to be
in there pitching. And how they
pitch! Nobody knows what they're
going to do, least of all them
selves"
With a few notable exceptions,
sophomores haven't figured in
Techs football scheme. Alex keeps
them on the B squad at least a
year for seasoning. Johnny Bosch
the midget halfback, was an eXcep-
ton. He nearly drove Notre Dame
crazy in his first major game. But
Bosch, now a senior, prepped at a
military academy and gets his lieu
tenants commission in June. Alex
expects him to be in the Army by
July, along with a half dozen other
Tech players.
Other coaches of the deep South
are in the same boat
Tob Lieb of Florida thinks he
may lose at least eight flrst-string-
ers. including Halfback Tommy
Harrison, who gets a commission

Jack Meagher of Auburn expects

Alb Kirway of Kentucky and Red
Dawson of Tulane say they won't
know until September what they
have to work with but are grateful
for few promising sophomore
prospects with which to plug gaps.
Harry Mehre of Mississippi, who is
losing four varsity guards, says his
best remaining guard is a Junior
college transfer who normally would
