Redskins BoIsterinq
Defense for Yankees
Battle Thursday
By Lewis F. Atchison
Stor Sioff CORRESPONDENT

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. a.
Interest in the Redskins New
York Yanks game Thursday night
hasn't aroused the popular re-
sponse hoped for here, although
Parke Carroll, general manager OF
the Kansas City Blues Stadium,
who booked the game. feels that
he fell into one of the prize plums
of the exhibition series.
Arrangements have been made
for approximately $4,000 custo-
mers and Carroll believes a last
minute rush will bring the attend
ance close to that figure, but right
now there is no heavy demand for
tickets.
Tonight's game between the
Yankees and the Baltimore Colts
in Shreveport. La. may step UP
the sale If the New York Yankees
roll up a big score. 1t could hap
pen, it seems, after the 1921 lick
ing the Los Angeles Rams gave
the Colts Saturday night.
Ball Steps Up Workouts.
The Redskins players were more
interested in enjoying an easy
week end than in thinking about
the Yanks, who shape up as their
most formidable preseason oppo-

them off with a light workout yes
terday, but stepped up the tempo
today and the pressure will be
heavy from now until game time
Ball is counting on two former
Missouri stars, Ed Quirk and Gene
Pepper, to give the Redskins q
lift against the Yanks. Quirk was
one of the best blocking backs in
the Missouri Valley in his college
days, but started as a fullbacs
with the Tribe and now is an Of
fensive center and defensive line
backer. Pepper is rookie guard
and he'll have a good chance tc
perform before neighbors coming
to the game.
While Ball says he contemplate
no changes in the lineup for thi.
game, he and Backfield Coach
Wilbur Moore are trying to flne
a way of getting more speed ir
the defense. They have speediel
rookie backs than such veterans
as Bill Dudley and Harry Dowda
but their inexperience against the
seasoned Yanks makes it risky tt
use them. Hall Haynes, for one
and Alex Lloyd, an end who also
plays halfback on defense. are
two who might do job.
Livingston to Be Back.
Howie Livingston will be back
on the job and at the moment

Coach Art Guepe of the Univer-
sity of Virginia is man with a
long memory.
So it wasn't odd that when
Guepe started drilling his Cavalier
football forces last week end he
remembered an autumn afternoon
two years ago, and some unfortu-
nate sequels.
When George Washington's Co.
lonials came to Charlottesville in
1948 to give the Cavaliers their
first opposition, the Colonials
weren't given a chance. They
had one. though. and proved it by
winning-through the air, on the
passing arm of Handy Andy Davis
Last year the Colonials came
back again and this time lost, but
only by few points. and once
more Davis passes caused the
Cavaliers no end Of grief.
Later on, Tulane struck through
the air to hand Virginia it's first
defeat of brilliant season. Then
in the seasons final game, North
Carolina got its decisive touch
down against the Cavaliers on g
pass from Charlie Justice to Art
Weiner.
Pass Defense Stressed.
Guepe remembered that over
the week end. When Virginia
players came back for preseason
drills after the summer layof, the
first work they got was on pess
defense.
Virginia opens against George
Washington again this year and
nobody knows better than Guepe
that Davis still is on hand to
lombard the aerial defenses.
Pass defense came in for some
talking-up, too, at Washington
and Lee. George Barclay, Generals
coach, getting ready for Furman
had his veterans batting down
passes far in the secondary.

ness" The verb denotes the ac-
ton of scraping or polishing. The
rams horn is called "Shofar" be-
cause of its bright tone.
QUESTION: What are the rea-
sons for blowing "Shofar" on
Rosh Hashanah?
ANSWER: Numerous reasons
are offered. Some authors offer
as many as ten reasons. The rea-
sons generally fall into several
categories. Those who use text
for basis stress the fact that the
actual name for "Rosh Hashan-
ah" in the Bible is "a day of
blowing. Some claim that every
major Jewish event in history
was heralded by the blowing of
the Shofar, as for example, the
Revelation at Mount Sinai, the
birth of the universe, the fall of
Jericho, etc. Since Rosh Hash
anah is approximately the birth
day of the world, some claim
that the shofar is sounded just
as it was Sill years ago.
Other writer's claim that the
shofar is blown to remind Cd
of the sacrifice of Isaac = of the
sacrifice of the people of Israel
through the ages. For this rea-
son a rams horn is used for it
was a ram Caught" in the thick
ct by it's horns" that was used as
the final substitute for Isaac at
Mount Moriah.
Others claim that the Shofar is
blown to bewilder and frighten
Satan who serves as the Prose-
cutor at the Bar of Judgment on
the Rosh Hashanah. In this re-
spect many will recall that an
Gent tribunals were summoned
by the call of the trumpet. Other
writer's claim that the Shofar was
intended to stimulate the pas
sion of repentance within the
hearts of the worshippers.
In ancient times when the king
was about to enter, the couriers
blew trumpets to announce his
arrival. On Rosh Hashanah every
living person is before the king
of Kings" the Lord in Heaven.
Feeling his presence brings on a
more intense emotion for repen-
:ence end reverence. Hence the

|Rezoning Hearing
Called 'Mockery'

A rezoning hearing scheduled
for November / was branded as a
farce and a mockery" by Miss
Catherine Flynn at last nights
meeting of the Executive Commit
tee of the Burroughs Citizens AS
sociation.
The area to be rezoned from
Residential "A" to Residential "B"
is a triangle bordered by South
Dakota avenue, Taylor and Eight
eenth streets NE.
Miss Flynn claims that the hear
ing is to provide nothing more
than a sanction "for the arbitrary
action of the Commission in grant,
ing rezoning appeal without al
lowing the opposition to present
it's views on the subject at a hear
ing before the grant was made"
!, Construction of Is row houses
to be built on the triangle has
already started and to go down
and argue with the commission at
this point would be silly" said
Miss Flynn.
Robert o. Clouser, Zoning Com
mission official said that the COM
mission was acting within its right
when it rezoned the area because
a court had handed down a de-
cision to the effect that residen-
tial "a" designation for the area
was not warranted.
THE hearing was called to pro-
tect the contractor" Mr.. Clouser
said.
The Executive Committee re-
quested Miss Flynn to continue her
fight against the rezoning.
