An aggravated back injury will
keep Frank Seno out Of the Red
skins lineup Sunday when they face
the Chicago Bears in Baltimore, but
otherwise the Tribe is in good shape
for their arch rivals.
Seno, counted on to carry as1arge
part of the offensive burden this
season, was injured couple Of days
ago, but not until yesterday did his
back become troublesome enough to
send him to the sidelines. Trainer
Doc" Bohn said the injury is not
serious and that the former George
Washington star should be ready to
resume his place next week.
First Eleven About Set.
Otherwise the lineup will be the
same as that which opened against
Green Bay. Coach Dud DeGroot
believes this group, with the excep-
ton of Steve Bagarus-who goes
back to the Army next week-will be
the first eleven throughout the
season. 1t isn't cut and dried for
any of the boys, however, and De
Groot said that if some of the new
comers continue to show improve
ment they'll get a chance at reg
ular jobs.
BLACK Mike" Micka, the Red
skins No. pick in the annual draft,
probably will start in Seno's place
against the Bears.
Turk" Edwards, who has seen em
all since the Redskins first were or
ganized, thinks Micka is the finest
defensive back the club ever had.
Turk rates him better than the great
Ernie Pinckert and above Ray Hare,
who distinguished himself in this
respect.
They were deadly tacklers and
you could feel certain running play
wouldn't get very much ground in

Haefner Draws Slab
Job as Griffs Open
Series With AS
By JOHN B. KELLER.

Mickey Haefner, who scored his
ninth win on the hill against the
Boston Red Sox only last Monday,
viii 60 after win No. 10 tonight
as the Philadelphia Athletics come
into Grifnth Stadium to open Q
four-game series with the Mats.
This selection by Manager Os
Bluege indicates that AL Carras-
quel, Dutch Leonard and Roger
Woln viii get the other slab as
signments In the series ending Sum-
day, the last for the AS here this
year.
Bluege also announced today
that George Myatt, instead Of
Johnny Sullivan, will continue to
I'LL the shortstop job with Gil Tor
res remaining at third base and
Fred Vaughn at second. However,
Eddie Yost, the youngster, will be
ready to step into the infield either
at third or short If necessary.
May Trouble Leaders.
AS far sunk in last place as they
are, the Mats have about aban-
doned hope of getting up in the
race In the 81 games they have yet
to play, but Bluege believes that
with Myatt continuing the hitting
stride he has maintained the last
three weeks and Stan Spence SOCK
ing around a 300 clip his club will
manage to get along at least at a
500 pace the remainder Of the way.
After all, the Washington club
still Is in position to make mat
ters unpleasant for three of the
contenders for the American
League pennant. 1t has three more
games to play with Boston's Red
Sox here and on the Western trip
In the last two weeks Of the sea-
son it will meet the st. Louis
Browns three times and the De-
troit Tigers four. These series could
do much damage to this trio In this
blanket finish.
Ortiz May Play Tonight.
There was a possibility that Bob
Ortiz, instead Of Rene Monteagudo,
would be in right field tonight.
Bluege this morning was inclined
to use the right-handed-hitting
Ortiz instead of. the portside
swinger, even though the AS sent
right-handed pitcher to the hill.
Monteagudo came out of the II
games he has played for the Mats
somewhat tagged, due to overweight,
but daily training here is bringing
his poundage down to workable
proportions.
Jake Powell, freshly over an at
tack of flu, also will be available
for duty in the outfield. He has re-
covered his strength, Bluege says,
and probably will be rushed into
action In an emergency.

Giegerich Hits Big Homer.
Baltimore fans yesterday were
treated to the Brewers speciality,
the clutch hitting that makes them
crowd pleasers wherever they per-
form. In the third inning, with
Elmer Leukhart and Pepco Barry on
the paths, Red Giegerich, left fielder
who has hit sos this season, bounced
a home run of the concrete stands
in left field to add three runs to a
tally registered in the first frame.
The big league scouts were waiting
for Red when he got back to the
dugout, but the outcome of the con-
ference wasn't announced.
Red Sox lone tally came in the
sixth, when Buzz Fusner blasted 9
homer, the first to clear the retain.

miners OF the mountain states,
however, and it doesn't seem to
be true among those in the south

On the other hand, the farm
