NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Mar. 30
You might as we'll become familiar
with the name-John, Marshall,
because swimming experts here in
sist you're going to come across it
frequently the next few days.
Marshall, the Yale freshman
who starred on the 1948 Australian
Olympic team, is picked to be the
sensation of the three-day ma
tional AAU indoor swimming
championships opening tonight in
Yale's swanky natatorium.
The modest 20-year-old lad from
down under" is favored in the
1 1,500-meter competition tonight;
the 220-yard freestyle tomorrow
and the 44O-yard freestyle on Sat-
urday. And he might win them
all in record time.
If he does, he'll equal the famed
triple" recorded by Johnny
WeiSsmuller back in 1927. If he
wins. but not in record time, he'll
join Walter Laufer, Jack Medica.
Bill Smith and Clarence Buster
Crabbe, who with Weissmuller are
the only three-event AAU indoors
swimming victors.
Marshall's task isn't an easy
one. Tonight, for instance, he
must outspeed Jim McLane, the
Olympic 1,500-meter champ who is
one of his teammates. and Jack
Taylor, Ohio State sophomore who
last week won the national col
legiate title and holds the Big Ten
crown. r ..l
With Marshall and McLane,
Yale's powerful yearlings are being
rated along with the New Haven
swimming club, the defending
champs, as the teams Ohio State
will have to beat to score the sea-
sons grand slam in swimming.

Du Golf, 6. W. Back
Signed by Redskins,
Rated Good Prospect

Overlooked by all 1S pro foot
bali clubs in the last draft. the
odds might seem all against AL
DuGoff making the grade as a
fullback with the Redskins next
season, but the chunky and
hard-driving George Washington
ace may find precedent on his
side.
Nobody knew Tuffy Leemans
when the elusive and durable
G. w. halfback signed with the
New York Giants more than a
decade age. But fans and experts
got to know him quickly after his
scintillating play in the All-Star
game that marked his debut in
pro competition and in New York
he's still remembered as one OF
the best all-around backs the
Giants ever had.
Walt Fedora. an end who went
up with the Bears and ultimately
found his way onto the Baltimore
Colts roster, was another unknown
who made his mark on the pro
grid.
Georgetown had a half dozen,
including the late Al Blozis. Jim
Castiglia, Glen Stralka. Jack
Doolan and AL Matuza. They
came into the National League
unheralded only because college
football in this area hasn't been
rated grade A. The picture is
slowly changing. but 1t is no sur
prise that Du Goff was overlooked.
Like Castiglia, who did not
reach his peak until after leaving
college, Du Golf seems to be just
coming into his own. His 5-foot-
II, 200-pound physique and good
speed should help at fullback. An
80-yard touchdown run against
Lafayette for the winning
touchdown indicates he's a clutch
player. and the II touchdowns he
scored in Southern Conference
competition shows he was con-
sistent. He scored four of 'em
against Virginia Tech. one a 105-
yard return of a kickoff. He also
got two of G.. WIS four touch
downs in the upset victory over
Georgetown.
A record of that kind rates a
