NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-Orban
(Spec) Sanders, New York Yankee
rookie practically has clinched the
All-America Football Conference
rushing title and has moved into
second place in individual scoring,
league statistics released today re-
vealed.
Sanders scampered AZ yards for a

Brooklyn last week and ended the
day with SO yards gained rushing
to give him a total for the season
of 696 and an average of 5.23 yards
Norm Standlee of San Francisco
ranks second and Vic Kulbitski of
Buffalo third.
Lou Groza of Cleveland held his
scoring lead with 67 points, all by
place kicks.
Glenn Dobbs, Brooklyn's triple
threat who has the total offense
and punting races sewed up, took
temporary possession of first place
in passing, ranking first in compile
tions with 1875 and a yardage with
1899 and fourth in efficiency.

Skins Without Leader
In Statistics First
Time in a Decade
By Lewis Z. Atehison

Every year since 1887, when Cliff
Battles Swished through the opposi-
ton for B74 yards, the Redskins have
come up with at least one individual
leader in National League affairs.
But this season, for the first time
since its Washington debut the
Tribe is winding up its affairs with
out a representative among the Sc
lect few. The doleful news Is direct
from Prof George Strickler, dean Of
mathematics and chief bellows OF
the publicity department.
Worse still, the Skins aren't even
close in most instances, rejecting
the Ill luck that has befallen them.
There was a time when Baugh
picked up at least one crown as reg
ularly as his pay check. Andy Far
kas, Frank Filchock. Dick Todd or
Wilbur Moore could be counted on
to keep the Tribe among the leaders
on an off season. A plague of injur-
les has left its imprint on the team.
Poillon Nearest Top.
Closest to being winner is blond
Dick Poillon, whose six field goals
still leave him two. short of Green
Bays Ted Fritsch. The Dutchman
from Cheesetown, even if Poillon
overhauls him Sunday, virtually is
certain OF finishing first among the
top scorers, with SO points already to
his credit and one game to 60. Ward
Cuff of the Cardinals is next with
SIS, followed by Bob Waterfield of
the Rams with So.
Deacon Billy Dudley of Pittsburgh,
who retired from the game for few
hours after the Eagles tried to take
him apart last Sunday, still leads
the current crop of ball huslers with
6o4 yards. Steve Van Buren,, last
years leader, could catch him with
80 yards against the Boston Yanks
this week. Van Buren is third, trail
ing the Cardinals Pat Harder by 512
yards to 539.
Dudley. who appended maybe
to his retirement announcement
when the swelling in his knee went
down, has the pass interception and
punt return crowns cinched. He
also is tied for third in punting,
tied for fifth in kickoff returns and
ranks 18th among the passers.
Bough, who skyrocketed to fame |
his first season in the big show by
completing 81 passes, thereby shat
tering Arne Herbert's previous high
Of n, is low man on the totem pole
this season. Slingin' Sam is fifth,
trailing Water1eld, Sid Luckman,
Paul Governali and Paul Christ
nan. Peculiarly, his percentage of
competitions is higher than any of
hose gentlemen's
Todd 18th in Yardage.
Dick Todd gets the Skins men
lion among the leading ground
gamers by placing 18th, with a
,66-yard total. |
Jim Benton of the Rams appears

ng with go to his credit. His feat

Lions Display Glass
|0n Defense in Tie
with Montreal

The Washington Lions defense
quartet OF Guy Roach, Phil Vitale,
Bud Foley and Jim Sims is play
ing better every game, and the re-
suit shows both ON the scoreboard
and in less work for Goahe Davie
Kemp. Davie still has to put his
small, spare frame in front OF more
pucks than most of the Eastern
Leagues other net minders, but the
boys ahead of him are beginning
to carry more OF the load.
The Lions did an excellent JOB
at Uline Arena last night in play
ing IL tie against Montreal
Royals Of the Quebec Senior Loop.
Kemp did his usual masterful goal
tending job, but the Royals more
than likely would have won by sew
eral goals il the Lion defensemen
hadn't chipped in with their best
game to date. They're getting to-
gether on their defensive blocks
better now, and their checking is
harder and more positive. 1t had
to be last night to break up numer-
GUS Royals fOrays down the ice.
The Montreal team appeared the
best to show against Washington
to date, and it's not likely any OF
the other Eastern League teams
will gain as much as a tie against
them. Previously they'd beaten
the Lions, 8-3, in Montreal, and
were heavy favorites to repeat last
night. They have Goalie Gerry
Mcneil, tagged as best Of the Mon
treal senior Loop, but the real
stars are Jacques Lccas and Floyd
Curry, two big, fast-skating and
accurate-shooting forwards.
The Lion team. that held the
Royals to deadlock last night was
far from being at full strength. In
addition to Jack Riley, who
shouldn't be playing because Of a
broken thumb, several OF the others
have severe colds. Ken PARTS and
Jimmy Wilson also have touch of
flu and should have been in hos
pital instead OF on the ice last night.
according to the team physician.
He did get PARTS Into hospital
after the game.
The Lions took . 10 lead at TAO
of the first period last night on a
smart bit Of play by Bert Lilley.
Washington was man short, and
the Royals were ganged up in front
of the Lion net getting the basket
play organized. Lilley stole the
puck on the pass between two de-
fensemen and beat it down the ice,
ramming 1t home past Goalie
Mcneil from 80 feet away.
Washington again was short with
vitale sitting it out when the Royals
deadlocked the game early in the
final frame. Gerry Plamondon
flashed it from center ice and right
UP under Goalie Kemp's nose before
he rifled in the puck.

Football Code Is Okla,
As Whole, Coaches
Indicate 10 AP
BY ,hs Assoeiotsd Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-College foot
ball rules, as a whole, are okay as
they are, the Nations coaches indi-
Gated today by their replies to an
Associated Press QUESTIONABLE, al
though a few of the gridiron pro-
fessors thought there was need for
some revision and clarification of
the code.
Probably the two most outspoken
mentors were Charles Caldwell Of
Princeton and Lou Little Of Co
lumbia.
Caldwell recommends the elimirla-
ton of the automatic 5-yard penalty
which is assessed when a defensive
lineman is offside and makes con-
tact with a player on the offense.
"As this rule now stands" Cald-
well said, "it invites coaches to play
unethical football and yet stay with
in the rules by developing trick
formations to draw the opposing
linemen offside."
Victimized by Virginia.
"For instance" he continued, "in
our game with Virginia we we're
completely taken in. Virginia used
the T-formation and on four occa-
sions they faxed plays from the T,
then merely shifted into a kick
formation to draw our line offside.
In each instance it cost us five yards
and brought Virginia first down"
Little long has advocated that the
ball be brought in 40 yards from the
sidelines after an out-of-bounds
play, instead of the Is yards now
permitted.
1--WE talked Of it first but didn't
do anything about it," he added,
but the professionals have gone
ahead and made it part of their
code. think we should do likewise"
As head of the Football Coaches
Rules Committee, Little says the
mentors favor a rule which denies
q recovering team the right to adj
vance with q fumbled lateral but
declare all other loose footballs
should be picked up and advanced
if possible.
Sub Rule Draws Comment.
The substitution rule also drew
numerous comments but none of the
coaches expressed strong sentiment
either way. w. A. CBiD Alexander
Of Georgia Tech, is opposed to free
substitution because coaches tend
to abuse it in an effort to master
mind from the bench" and also in
the belief that the rule tends to
develop specialists.
Fritz Crisler of Michigan, Howie
Odell of Yale and Dana X. Bible
Of Texas all favor free substitution,
Crisler asking a rule that would
permit the insertion of three players
without penalty whenever the ball
changes hands and the clock is
running.
Bernie Bierndan, mentor at Mime
sofa, suggests that the clock be done
away with entirely and that quar-
ter consist OF 40 plays.
Another suggested rule change
would declare the ball dead If the
pigskin were blocked or fumbled on
the try for the extra point

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-Racing to-
day had an ex-FBI man as its

United States Senator that if you

be kept just as pure"
Drayton succeeds Alex Robb as

Monday to become general manager

At its business meeting the IRA
also adopted q resolution calling
for q code OF ethics in the oper-
alton Of member tracks. Work was
started on the code at once to de-
eide uniform standards on various
specific issues such as assignment
OF stall rooms, awards to nom
employees of tracks and labor dis
putes.
