Harry Gilmer's shoulder Is
completely mended and the form
er Alabama star is ready to give
Sammy Baugh any help he may
need Sunday when the Cleveland
Browns invade Griffith Stadium
in the final regular game of the
season for both.
The Redskins want to upset the
Browns in this closeout, something
they almost did November 19 when
they lost a 20-14 decision in Cleve-
land. That was the last game in
which Gilmer played, and even
then his shoulder was in bad
shape.
Baugh was alone at quarterback
for the Redskins last two games,
both of them winning ones over
the Colts and Steelers. Gilmer
was ready to play in last Sundays
game at Pittsburgh, but Coach
Herman Ball wanted to save him
for use against the Browns.

The Caps, who still have hopes
of getting back into contention in
the National Basketball Associa-
tion race, will try to get rolling
tonight against the Indianapolis
Olympians at Uline Arena. The
game will start at $3.50 o'clock.
The Caps, who now a~e in better
shape than at any other time this
season, can't afford to continue
losing. In next-to-last place in
the Eastern Division standings,
they have lost nine games more
than flrst-place Philadelphia.
The season, however, is not one
third old and the Caps still can
get into the thick of the title
battle-if they get moving.
Schnittker Is Returning.
Dick Schnittker, who has been
sidelined with a fractured cheek
bone. will return against the

America star from Ohio State,
has been out two weeks.
The Caps. who have been rest
ing since last Saturdays loss to
Boston, have dropped six Of their
last seven games, but play six of
their next seven games at home.
The home-floor advantage, an
easier schedule and the return of
Schnittker should make the Caps
a better club in the immediate fu-
ture. Also helping should be the
newly acquired trio-Ed Mikan,
Ed Bartels and Tommy Brynes.
They looked good against Boston
Saturday and should improve as
they get acquitted.
Olympians in Trim.
The Olympians will be no push
overs. They're riding high now
after outscoring the New York
Knickerbockers last night to put
them over the 500 mark. The
Knicks come here to play the Caps
Saturday night.
Alex Groza, who trails only
George Mikan of Minneapolis in
the scoring department, will lead
Indianapolis tonight. He'll be
teamed with other former Univer-
sity Of Kentucky stars In Ralph
Beard. Wallace (Wah- WahD Jones,
Joe Holland and Player-Coach

The Midwesterners, it was

Sam Rayburn to end the ancient

They contend the custom serves
chiefly to swell the pocketbooks
