CHICAGO, Oct.25.-Sammy Baugh
is setting aerial records for the
Washington Redskins and Sid Luck
man is sailing the Chicago Bears to
victories with his touchdown pitches.
The teams with the great passers
still are leading the way in the two
divisions of the National Football
League.
Baugh, now in his seventh season,
has turned in almost unheralded
two new all-time records this fall
his lifetime total of 64 touchdown
passes beating the SO set up by Cecil
Isbell of Green Bay, and his 1857
yards gained on passing topping the
6,741 by Arne Herber of Green Bay.
Luckman, only a five-year man
in the pro league, holds no records
yet, but has thrown II touchdown
passes in five games and has meant
a lot to the Bears, who no longer
are supreme with their ground at
tack as in the old days.
Baugh Menaces Season Mark.
Baugh has pitched eight aerials
for touchdoWns in only three games
and with seven to go is we'll on the
way to breaking Isbells record of "a
for a season. He threw to Joe
Aguirre for one Redskin score yes

for another touchdown, by Andy

Luckman threw % passes yester-

Giants.
Washington and New York won't
get around to colliding until De-
cember S, when they battle in the
first of brace of successive games
but next week the Giants will be
struggling with the Green Bay
Packers. After meeting the De-
troit Lions they'll bump into the
Bears and meanwhile Washington
will be having fun with Brooklyn,
Philadelphia Pittsburgh and the
Lions.
That 1921 margin the Bears COM
piled at the expense of the Dodgers
resembles moral victory for Brook
lyn, which got around to scoring
after four successive failures, but
Chicago never permitted the Dodg-
ers' ecstacy to get out of hand.
Chicago compiled a comfortable
26-O lead and when the Dodgers be-
gan to nurse ideas by whiting that
advantage to 26-14 the Bears merely
marched 80 yards for another touch
down. The Bears weren't as fright
ened as the final score might indi-
cate.

New York rolled up 42-0 lead
over the Philpitts and moved into
second place in the Eastern di-
vision with a 42-14 victory. 1t was
the second successive fearful past

despite the sizable score, the Giants
displayed no ground attack, show
ing net of II yards rushing.

to take a 27-6 decision over the
Lions, and, despite Detroit's $3.50

it. frankie Sinkwich's presence in
