LOS ANGELES, Aug. 23-The
Redskins will have their final scrim-
mage of the training season tomor-
row and thereafter will be on one
a-oay practice program. But with
the intrasouad game at Santa Ana
coming up Friday night and the
curtain-raiser with the Rams week
later Coach Turk Edwards still
hasn't decided which players will
make the squad
Old standbys, such as Sammy
Baugh Dick Todd, Johnny Adams,
etc, are set, and certain positions
will be well manned, but keen COM
petition for berths, especially among
the ends and backs, have number
of the boys on the anxious seat. At
end, for example, Edwards probably
will keep only six but he has seven
who seem evenly matched. George
Brodston trails the field but he's the
best kickoff booter in camp and
Jim PEBBLES ability in this depart
ment earned him berth last season.
FulIback a Question.
Fullback is another brain-teaser
for the Tribes chief of staff. Sal
Rosato looks big and fast enough
to do the job this year but he's
down with a game leg. Jack Jen-
4;ins is another who could fill the
Sill. but his heels have had him on
the sidelines.
Meanwhile, Al Couppee, who has
been shunted around like freight
car. was a ball of fire last week and
flad the board of strategy sitting up
taking notice. Bob Music is develop
ing slowly, but every day he adds
weight to his bid for a job. Joe
Martins legs have prevented him
from showing much but he appears
to be a good back.
There you have six fullbackS, each
with a question mark behind his
name, and Edwards must choose
three

but !Gaffney might make a swell
fullback and Holmes looks too good
to cut adrift But with him Gillette,
Tom Farmer. Bob Nussbaumer, and
Bob DeFruiter at right half none
can be shifted. Over there, too. you

Rockies arm was injured in practice
before the Chicago All-Star game

how Tom shapes up before making

CLEVELAND, Aug. %. - Allie
Reynolds became the first pitcher
in the American League to gain
is victories today as the New York
Yankees dashed out II hits to
trounce the Cleveland Indians,
1876.
Reynolds, who pitched for the
Indians last year, tired in the ninth
after getting two out and Joe Page
came on to retire the side.
The Yanks supported Reynolds
pitching with 17-hit attack against
three Cleveland pitchers with
Johnny Lindell and Tommy Heinrich
leading the way with three hits
apiece.
After nicking Red Embree for two
runs in the first. the Yanks batted
around, knocking Embree out in
the second and scoring eight times
to sew up the game.
Lindell walked to start the spree
and in his second trip to the plate
in the inning. he homered to bring
in the final two runs of the big
frame. -Four walks and an error
along with four hits accounted for
the eight runs.
Reynolds, who has served up
more home-run balls than any other
pitcher, was socked for homers by
Ed Bockman and Pat Secrecy, the

season.

first scrimmage, but in justice to
him it must be noted that he hasn't
had as much protection as you'd
get from pop gun. The line hasn't
blocked and Jim's throws as a re-
suit have been cratic. Most of his
successful passes, ironically, were
nullifled by penalties.
Center is another uncertain spot,
with Doug Turkeys transfer to that
position adding to the confusion.
Edwards believes Turkeys experience
will be invaluable if he learns to
back up line. Doug will have no
trouble on offense and although
making his first try at the job last
week, he didn't do too badly behind
the line on defense. AL Demao Is
the only other center in camp Ger
tain to stick, although Red Wheeler's
improvement has been rapid. Al
though Wheeler packs 215 pounds,
he doesn't seem big enough for a
tough spot like the pivot.
Five Set at Tackle.
Don Avery, John Adams, Ed
Offers, Frank and Ernie Williamson
are set at tackle, although William
son needs more experience. The
tribe can use another big, aggressive
tackle. Wendell Beard, who arrived
here last week from the Bears
camp, hardly seems to be the man
although Edwards wants to give
him a thorough trial.
With John Steber. Demp Harris,
Mike Garzoni, Bill Ward and Leo
Mobile, the tribe should have the
finest set of guards since the days
of Steve Slivinsi. Glen Stralka,
Clyde Shugart and Dick Farman.
The first cut in personnel will be
made next Saturday and the next

Second Man Also Cuts
Old Record; Callahan,
Third, D. C.'s Best
By GEORGE Huber

Sure, and it was a great day Tor
the Irish yesterday as three sons OF
Old Sod cleaned up in the muddy
Potomac River by finishing one, two.
three in the grueling Presidents
Cup 3-mile swim. 1t was Maloney.
Mccarthy and Callahan, great
bhoys all, in that order leading an
original field of Is starters across
the finish line in front of the Wash
ington Canoe Club.
And did that great beauty, Miss
Peggy Wilson. Miss Washington of
1947 mind you, smile as she pre-
sented the Presidents Cup, donated
by Mr. Coolidge himself these many
years ago, to the red-haired, freck-
led-faced Paul Maioney.
That Maloney boy, he showed
them how long distance swimming
should be done. and the reason he
wasn't farther in front at the finish
is that there was another Irish lad,
John F. Mccarthy, right behind
him. Both broke the former record
of hour. II minutes and 80 seconds
set in 1888 by Ray Ruddy. Maloneys
new time for the record books is
1:Os23, while Mccarthy finished in
1:11.00.
Maloney halls from Buffalo, N. Y,
and Mccarthy from WATERFOWL, N
Y. They were teammates several
years ago at the University of Mich
igan. although Maloney now goes to
Canisius College in Buffalo He
was a Marine during the late fuss
and for awhile was stationed in
Washington. Maloney, great athlete
that he Is, had to argue with the
examining doctor prior to the race
before he was permitted to swim.
Seems he had III degrees of tenn
perature, but he finally convinced
the doc he was able to go. After
that, he convinced everybody else.
Dan Callahan of Washington,
member of the Ambassador SWIM
ming team, was third in 1:12.26 and
he becomes the new District AAU

Club, whose swimmers finished
fourth, fifth and eighth, won the

ply for the first District team to
finish went to Ambassador. whose
