Redskins See Problem
In Moving Packers j..
Huge Line Sunday
By Lewis F. Atchison

AL Demao, veteran Redskins
center, can look forward to Sun
days game with the Green Bay
Packers with pleasure because for
the first time in several years he
may not have to play opposite
William H. (EO Neal. 275-pound
Packer center. Both will be used
on offense in this game. in which
the Redskins will be shooting for
their second league victory and
seventh win in row.
Moving the big Packer line is
problem the Redskins must solve
if they expect to win. Green Bay
held the Detroit Lions to 38 yards
on the ground last week, minus
two in the first half, despite 45-7
thrashing, and Coach Herman Ball
is afraid the Redskins may have
trouble making their running

Blacksmithing Helps Neal.
Neal, a blacksmith during the
off-season who rips up telephone
books and bends horseshoeS with
his bare hands for exercise, puts
opponents out of commission SIM

mao's case, he sometimes bopped
him on the head or belted him
with an elbow-unintentionally OF

in exchange for Paul Lipscomb
and who has been moved to guard.
He rates A on his downf1eld block

Defensively the Green Bay lines
standout seems to be Clayton
Tonnemaker, 6-foot-3, 235-pound
rookie center from Minnesota. He

against Detroit and brushed of

AL Heagy's scouting notes. If the
Redskins run over Tonnemaker,
they'll be the first team to do it
this season.
Big Line Promises Trouble.
The thought of this trio alone
would be enough to grow few
new, gray hairs on Redskins
coaching heads. But. in addition.
the Packers have Clarence Nc
Geary, a 6-foot-5, 250-pound
tackle who played two years at
Minnesota before transferring to
North Dakota State, and the vet
eran Dick Wildung, an outstand-
ing defensive man.
