Eagles Bringing Trio of Top
Pros to Face Skins Sunday

The Redskins will have q look al
three National Football League
leaders Sunday when the Philadel.
lphia Eagles make their annual ap.
pearance at Grifnth Stadium. Sta.
tistics show that Tommy Thomp.
son is the loops leading passer
Pete Pihos Is tied with the Chi.
cago Bears J. r. Boone for scoring
honors at "a points each, and sJot
Muha tops the punters with 48.3.
yard average.
With the famed Mummers' Band
coming along with the team it was
enough to make Coach Turk Ed
wards wonder today II the Eagles
plan to put on the whole show.
The Skins are a better football
team than they showed against the
Steelers, but haven't made the most
OF their power. Some fans wonder
why Edwards didn't give Tommy
Mont more chances to quarterback
the team against Pittsburgh and
give Sammy Baugh a rest. Mont,
Of course, was as essential as the
cork in a bottle when Johnny
Clement tossed passes. but he's a
good, smart quarterback and might
have gotten the Steelers-who were
thoroughly prepared for Baugh's
passes-of balance.
It was hearten!ng to see Bones
Taylor throw the ball on an end
around play, however, and it might
mean the Skins intend to put more
razzle dazzle in their offense. The
only criticism was that Bones should
have tried one running play. then

Mentzer also liked the play of
Bernie Shipley. who contributed to

running and booted the important
extra point.
All the scoring was in the second
period with Eastern counting FIRST.

Great Threat to G. w. Seen
In Ace Kansas Posser

Shed tear for Coach Jules Verne
Skies Of Kansas. who brings his Jay
hawkers to Washington Friday night
to play George Washington at Grit
fifth Stadium. Skies, who is even
more air-minded than most T for
nation coaches, lost all three of last
years passers through graduation
Then his No. spring practice passer
was declared ineligible.
Skies tried as his quarterback and
passer, Dick Gilman, a fourthstrine
halfback who could show a net gain
of minus / yard for two years OF
playing. Now Gilman is the new
Idol Of the air lanes out Kansas way
Four Kansas opponents have seen
too much Of Gilman already and the
Colonials probably will see plenty OF
him Friday night. The game easily
could develop into a personal duel
between Gilman and Andy Davis,
the big noise in G. WIS offense.
One reason Gilman didn't figure
prominently In Jayhawker plans this
year is that he is right fancy base
ball pitcher. He didn't even come
out for spring practice, which is
enough to get anybody overlooked
the way football is played nowadays.
Coach Skies was forced to take a
desperate gamble on him and it has
paid of handsomely.
In four games to date, Gilman has
flung % completed passes in 46
attempts. That is just fair pass
ing average, but the payoff punch
is there. He has tossed for eight
touchdowns and 403 yards. That is
more touchdowns than anybody at
Kansas threw all last year, including
its Orange Bowl game, although the
yardage still is a bit behind the sea-
son total hung up by Ray Evans,
who now is working for the Pitts
burgh Steelers.
Gilman, a 6-foot-2, 190-pounder
didn't do much in the Jayhawkers'
first game, a 1-point loss to Texas
Christian. But after that he caught
fire and broke the backs Of three
opponents in a row-Denver, Colo
RADIO and Iowa State. Against Den
yer and Colorado he scored the hat
trick with three touchdown passes
Last week he slipped to two against
Iowa State.

Improved Duke Facinq
Terps in Homecoming
Contest Saturday

Duke has found its scoring apunch
and Fearless Freddie Folger, It's ace
halfback, apparently isn't troubled
any more by an injured leg that
slowed him in his first two games
this season. All Of which means
that University Of Maryland will
have its hands full protecting its
three-game undefeated and un-
scored upon record when it tangles
with the Blue Devils in Its home
coming football game Saturday aft

Folger, who was the big boy on
offense and defense last year, when
the Terrapins took q 7-l9 setback
at Duke, returned to his old form
last Saturday against Navy. In
Dukes earlier games this year, a
90 tie with North Carolina State
and a TT deadlock with Tennessee,
Fearless Freddie was slowed by a
leg injury. That hurt wasn't in
evidence against the Middies. He
wac kicking, passing and running
with the best, and his defensive
play was high lighted by the pass
he intercepted and ran back so
yards to set up a score.
The Blue Devils also have q fine
replacement for him in Billy Cox.
He's bigger and heavier than Folger
and looked just as fast against the
Middies with a 61-touchdown romp
The Blue Devils have q number OF
other scoring threats, notably Full
back Paul Stephanz, their leading
ground gamer last year. He Is ably
backed by Jack Mounie, a rookie
whose fine style has been one of the
pleasant surprises for Coach Wallace
Wade this season. These two in fact
did most of the ground gaining
although they couldn't work up q
score in Dukes opening game this
year.
The Blue Devils admittedly have
a tight line built around AL De
Rogatis, a 220-pound tackle and
team captain, and Bill Davis, q 200
pound guard. De Rogatis was in
jured and missed most Of last season
but when right he is one of the
South's best tackles.
