Bogorus May Return

If Coach Dutch Bergman, new at
the Redskin helm, had half the
backfield the club has lost to the
armed services the Redskins would
be standouts, not only 10 win the
Eastern crown, but also the world
title again. Marshall was talking
about this and the possibility that
Steve Bagarus, 175-pound scatback
of the Dick Todd type, might be
with the team later this season.
What an outfit we'd have if all
the men now our property could be
with US said the Redskin prexy.
The list was pretty impressive as
he pointed them out. Former Red
skin backfield men now in the
service include Frank Filchock, Steve
Juzwik, Dick Todd, Ed Justice, Cecil
Hare and Dick Poillon. The Skins
own Bill De Correvont, former
Northwestern flash. They'll get an
eyeful of Bill Saturday at Bainbridge,
Md, when they scrimmage the Sail
ors. They also own Bagarus, now
with an antiaircraft outfit near San
Diego, Calf. Bagarus may get a
medical discharge from the Army.
A backfield with such men would
come fairly close to running right
over the rest of the league. Sam
Baugh and Wilbur Moore could
make the starting team, but Berg
man would be up against a tough
choice from there He would be
embarrassed by riches such as no
coach in the league possesses.

there is to bar colored people

been the cause of numerous

If there is a need for bans
against anybody, it should be
directed against these "Klan"

to bar 100 badly needed Colored
