Baugh, Moore Remain
Second as Thrower
And Pass Grabber

The tightest scrap in four potent
scoring departments OF National
Football League teams brings the
eight remaining pro outfits up to
the crucial mid November games
with two Redskins nudging toward
the top.
Sammy Baugh, usually at the top
in passing efficiency in the air
minded boys, remains in second
place, behind Sid Luckman of the
Bears, in the middle OF his best
season, but Wilbur Moore, sub
merged in other years, is hot on the
heels OF fleet Don Hutson of Green
Bay in the race for top-scoring ef-
f1ciency and pass reception.
Luckman Is Top Tosser.
Luckman has completed 10 of l26
attempts in seven games for total
yardage of l,375 and 16 direct touch
downs, with percentage of SOB.
Baugh has cranked up and thrown
l24 times in five games, completing
81 for 958 yards and a $40 percent
age. But 10 Baugh passes have been
intercepted, while only times has
Luckman seen enemy receivers
scamper away with his heaves.
The glue-fingered Moore, favorite
target OF Baugh, has caught 7
aerialS for touchdoWns, 2 more than
Hutson, but Don also kicks field
goals and points after touchdowns.
In all he has scored SIS points
against 48 for Moore, runner-up to
the Alabama Antelope both in scor-
ing and pass reception.
Moore has outgained all league
pass receivers, with asa yards.
against 397 for Hutson, and also has
the longest completion, a 72-yard
touchdown gallop against Brooklyn.

Sinkwich, Lilo Drawing
Full House 10 Skins
Clash With Lions
BY WALTER McCALLUM.

Already close to sellout, with
most Of the better seats gone, Sum-
days Redskin-Detroit Lions foot
ball game, third home contest for
the Skins, undoubtedly will be
another of those S. r. o. affairs.
The Bear game, scheduled Novem-
Der 81, already is complete sellout.
Frankie SinkWich, the Georgia
flash and leading ground gamer Of
the last college season, will be the
drawing card Sunday, but a lot of
loyal Georgetown alumni will go to
Griffith Stadium to see Augie Lilo,
all-America guard when a Hoya and
now playing guard on the Lion club.
They may see big Augie drop back
and do his speciality, kicking field
goals. He happens to lead the Ma
tional Football League in that
neglected art this year with two
goals from the field in 10 attempts.
One Of them stands on the record
as the longest of the year, a 49,
yarder kicked from placement
against Brooklyn September 26
when the Lions licked the Dodgers,
I27-0.
The Redskin coaching staff has
complete reports of its scouts on the
Lions and if YOU see Coaches Dutch
Bergman and Turk Edwards in a
huddle, they are dreaming up head
aches for Coach Gus Dorais and his
men. Gus, by the way, coached
Parunoon uThaf1 tho 1ottor MI
shifty halfback on the Notre Dame
team of 1919, the same team on
which George Gipp, one of Notre
Danes fabuloussstars, was hero.
Last night the Redskins viewed
movies Of the game against the Phil
pitts and weren't fiattered by the
protection the films showed Sammy
Bsugh got. Although taken from a
bad angle, they also revealed that
an official called a bad one when he
allowed a Roy Zimmerman intercept
ton of Baugh pass out Of bounds.
Zimmerman, however, played
bang-up game against his old team
mates for so minutes and was the
key man in the Philpitts' T forma-
ton.
Latest league statistics show Will
bur Moore with eight touchdowns
in the l35 points the Redskins have
scored this year, against 38 for their
opponents. Fleet Wilbur now leads
teammate Andy Farkas by two
touchdowns in their personal race
for the Redskin scoring lead and Is
tied with Rookie Bill Paschal Of the
Giants for the league touchdown
scoring lead. Six Of Moore's touch
downs have come as direct result
/ of Baugh passes.

There were few complaints, if any,
with Magof1ln as referee. He was
the acme of honesty and compe-
tency, a source of immense salts
faction to bitterly partisan players,
coaches and fans. He has figured
prominently in promoting healthy
rivalry between Central and Tech.
Series Full of Thrills
There have been some exciting
moments in those Tech-Central
games. In 1916, for instance, Sam
Gottlieb recovered a Tech tumble
and scooted 81 yards to present
Central TO victory. In 1929 Larry
Pinckney, later a hero at guard in
Columbia's Rose Bowl goal line
stand against Stanford, pulverized
Techs line as a fullback to give
Central 60 halftime lead. In the
last quarter, though, Techs Willis
Benner came through with brace
of touchdowns to present Tech a
1875 triumph.
Tech was on top Of the high school
heap in those days. Under Coach
Hap Hardell, Tech beat Central five
straight times and captured "a
straight series games before Central
finally contributed a TO upset in
1888.
Losing Hardell as coach-he re-
signed after a squabble with Techs
principal involving the use of Techs
Stadium--Was the most costly blow
in Techs grid history. He taught
fundamental football better than
any of his predecessors or successors
and it paid off with championships
and few injuries.
No championship will hinge on
the Tech-Central collision this sea-
son, but while it lacks some of it's
luster it has lost none of its spirit

The army medical department is
developing program to put the
wounded soldier in the best possible
condition upon his dismissal from
the hospital. This is called recon-
ditioning. One phase is designed to
reorient the handicapped mantle

Men who have suffered amputations

nate men are helped to earn a liv-
ing in some new trade.
Those men who can return to serv-
ice are encouraged to do so, as the
army believes that veteran who
has been wounded in action is the
most valuable kind of soldier.
These men fully appreciate the
wisdom and necessity of instructions
for escaping injury in combat.
The reconditioning patients are di-
vided into four classes:

covery, who are capable of eight
hours of physical training daily.

of physical exercise daily.

ed have died, as compared with 7.35
per cent in the last war, or less
than half. While these figures are
not entirely comparable, since more
men are killed outright by the more
lethal modern weapons, neverthe-
less, a very substantial improve
ment has been made. The life
saving branches of the services have
more than kept up with the deadli-
ness of the latest bombs and shells.
For instance, in one of the Egyp-
tian campaigns, head wounds result
ed in a mortality rate of only 9 per
cent. In World War l, from so to
60 per cent died. Head wounds are
injuries to the scalp, skull or brain.
Losses of extremities will be much
smaller than last time, it is predict
ed, on experience to date, largely
because infections can be better con-
trolled now.
Control of infection by use of the
highly publicized sulfonamides and
the mysterious and rare penicillin
is popularity misunderstood, army
doctors warn. The sulfa drugs hold
the infection in check until the nat
ural defenses of the body are able
to kill the bacteria. Penicillin pre-
vents the growth of new bacteria.
1t has been found gratifyingly sue
cessful in treatment of osteomyelitis
and other stubborn types of infec-
tons that will not yield to sulfona-
mides. While these miracle drugs"
do not mean the end of infected
wounds, surgeons say that this most
serious danger is being conquered.
Wounded Get Speedy Aid.
Speedy treatment is probably the
most important point in saving
lives, after the new techniques. It
is estimated that 80 to 80 per cent
of wounded men receive first aid
within an hour after being hurt. Ev-
cry soldier carries a little kit with
him, containing sulfa tablets and
dressings. If he is hurt badly, and
unable to apply these himself, a
comrade will do it. Then, as soon as
possible, stretcher-bearers come for
him, and carry him to a first aid
tent, the battalion aid station, only
a few hundred yards behind the fir
ing line.
Here a doctor examines the wound
and checks the treatment admins
tered by the medical aid soldier. The
doctor treats the shock with injec-
tons of blood plasma, and gives
morphine to ease the pain. He puts
on necessary splints or dressings.
As soon as the mans condition
permits he is moved by ambulance,
jeep, or litter to a collecting sta
ton, which is also a mobile unit,
placed as close to the front as is at
all safe. Here the patient is CLASH
fed as to type of injury: head,
