 New York, oct. 19 - (U.P) = George Preston Marshall, sym- phony in autumnal brown, did an of to- Buffalo shuff1e in the dress ing room aand then pranced up and down, skipping bare backs as flee fully as If his Washington Redskins had just won the National League title-or at least the Eastern Divi- sion crown.
 His brawny, naked Braves were in the. process of showering and garb- ing after bowling over Brooklyn's football Dodgers, 2l to 10, score that does not even hint at the ease with which victory was achieved before 25,635 disappointed fans ct Ebbets Field.
 This 1edskin triumphant ultra important one, If Owner Marshall's antics were a true indicator-gave Washington a tighter hold on the Eastern Division lead, with four wins against one loss, and height ened the debonair ex-actor's hopes of obtaining vengeance against the mighty Chicago Bears in a Decem- Der play-off for the elague title.
 He's "SOre'
 Gorgeous George" the "sartorial- ly spleniferous" Redskin proxy. still has a galling grievance against the Bears, who are booming toward their third straight western crown and possible league championship In 1940. the Bears blighted Mar shall's life by burying the Redskins 73 to o, in the playoff. It was the worst rout in playof history.
 Last season the Redskins dropped to third place in the final Eastern standing and consequently had nc title tilt with George Halas' Bears But this year the Washington out look is different. With Marshall in- sisting he has the best team in his Ii years with the National League.
 He told reporters in the dressing room yesterday, T say this is my best squad because we have such fine reserves that we actually have two teams. one just as good as the other. We've never had combina- tion like that before-when my Red skins were at Washington or al Boston.
 T said this before the season opened, but nobody would believe me because we lost an exhibition tc the Bears before our boys were CO., ordinated. That was on September 18th. Then, in our first season game we had trouble beating Pittsburgh but no one appreciated at the time what good club Pittsburgh hac this season. Our second game was g fiuke affair in which we lost to New York, l4-7, although the Giants never made a first down and gained only one yard rushing. After that we began to improve. We should dc well in our remaining six games although we're ready for stiff op. position from Pittsburgh, New York and Brooklyn"
 Wet Wash King
 Marshall t-a-l-k-S of the Eastern , teams, but everyone knows he's gunning for western bear meat. Wt believe Washington's "wet wast magnate" would be willing to givt up his laundry empire-including al 53 stores-if Messrs. Baugh, Todc and Company could lick the Hala! Bruins in December. He'd probably be glad to toss in the jewels of hi wife. Corrine Grif1th of the silen movies.
 Hence. you can appreciate his ella ton at his clubs impressive showing against the Flatbushers, who wer, rated the Redskins most formidable rival for Eastern honors. You car appreciate his gushing exultations Did you ever see anything hk' Baugh. and Todd out there today, 1 Hot as flrecrackersl Wonderful ! Wonderfuli"
