No Help 10 Skins
Likely Sunday
In Extra Line
Cool Weather Makes
Change Of Forwards
Against Beers Risky
BY LEWIS F. ATCHISON.

The Redskins will have a hefty
advantage in the line Sunday
against the Bears, but it won't mean
a thing by Coach Ray Flaherty's
own admission There was a time
when the Tribes two groups Of
trench diggers would have given
them an important advantage over
the defending champs, but the
weatherman has taken it away.
Washington will have the lightest
lineman on the field in Johnny
Kovatch, a lean 1863 pounds without
breakfast. and he pulls the team
average down to fat 238. The
Bears will have the heaviest man
in uniform 270-pound George Mus
so, who tops Wee Willie Wilkin by
the thickness of one good beef
steak, but the remainder of the Mid
western cast is more or less OF
standard size, anywhere from 100
to 235.
The Tribe, of course, did have the
upper hand in its exhibition game
with the Bears earlier in the season
Flaherty says the advent of winter
has removed the last hope of GAIN
ing anything by sheer weight. And.
as far as numbers 60, Chicago has
a couple of linemen to spare on the
Skins, 20 to 18, so there is nothing
to be gained there, from a local
| viewpoint.
Gold" Player Is Big Risk.
From tackle to tackle, however,
the Skins admittedly have the best
10 men in the circuit. There may
be better player for certain posi-
ton but no club owned two sets of
| good tackles and guards, and two
centerS to compare with the Red
skins. The teams advantage lay in
it's power to send out five good men
to start the argument and then,
pulling them out, replace them with
five better men and in hot weather
it was a tremendous advantage.
In cool weather like we're hav-
ing it wouldn't do much good to
keep shifting lines" Flaherty was
saying today, because IL men in
good condition can play as long and
about as hard as % In fact, the
longer a player is in there the bet
ter he should be because they need
time to get warmed up and moving
fast
once they get going it will be
risking trouble to pull EN- out, ex-
cept for injuries or to try change
in strategy. Every time we make a
substitution it means we'll be put
ting cold player in against hot
one and while that may not seem
important from the sidelines it
might easily make the difference
between a march for them or stand
by us"
The same theory is applicable in
the backfeld. although not as
strongly. If the Bears, for example.
shake loose a hot Ray MCLEAN, Ray
Noting or Bill Osmanski into ter
ritory protected by a cold Redskin
back the odds will be with the Chi
cagoan for getting away for a good
romp and even a touchdown. A
loose, Timber. halfback can do lot
of things a cold, tight defensive
player can see, but can't stop and
half step this way or that, shake
of the hips or feint of the shoul-
ders, seemingly trivial stuff. some

representatives of the campaign,

The move has been given approval
by some of the leading figures of
the country. Gen. Macarthur said
of it in cablegram announcing his
Acceptance of the honorary post:
Il cannot tell you the sense of
distinction I feel in accepting the
post you proffer me. Throughout
the history of mankind symbols have
eXerted an impelling influence upon
the lives of men. The cross and
the flag are the embodiment of our
ideals and teach us not only how to
live, but how to die"
The plan is non-political and nom
sectarian. The idea originated in
the mind of G. P. Williamson of
New York City, because of his per-
sonal difficulty in buying and plac-
ing flag suitable for constant dis
play in his own home.
In contrast with the countries
allied against us, where tremendous
flag displays are vital part of every
