Todd Unlikely to Return.
Todd, who repeatedly has said
he is not interested in being the
Redskins head coach in 1852. ap-
parently means it. Moreover, there
lis a growing suspicion that he
won't be back next year in any
Icapacity with the team. Come
what may next season, the squad
wants to send the "li'l ole boy"
back to Texas with 6-3 record
for his first head-coaching as
tsignment.
! Todd will go along with both
objectives, although he's especially
strong for the part concerning
Goode.
Rob has been the hardest
worker on the squad from the
first day in training camp" the
coach said. "He deserves every
thing he getsp
Goode got his yardage the hard
way yesterday against a bristling
Cardinal line that, like the rest
of the Chicago squad, seemed to
be celebrating Curly Lambeau's
sudden departure as head coach.
Rob got it in short bites of 3,
and 5 yards, after reeling off runs
of 20 and 16 yards on his first
two tries. He was the man Sammy
Baugh called on when the Red
skins needed first down and he
made it nine times. Goode also
scored his teams second touch
down.
Dudley and Brito Star.
Hero of the game, Of course.
was Bill Dudley, whose 18-yard
field goal with Is seconds to play
provided the winning margin.
Dudley gave the Redskins their
first three points with a 36-yard
field goal in the opening period
after the Cards had taken a TO
lead. The Vrginian also kicked
both extra points and used his
feet well in running the ball for
48 yards.
Important as this pair was,
however, others had vital roles in
the victory. Rookie Gene Brito,
for example, made another of his
impossible pass catches for the
28-yard gain that planted the ball
on the Cardinals 11-yard line and
set up Dudley's winning kick.
Brito played his usual aggressive
game, but that one catch, with
S. j. Whitman and Jerry Davis
battling him for the ball, was the
peak.
Harry Gilmer's defensive play,
especially in stopping 235-pound
Ralph Pasquariello in the open,
Slug Witucki's blocking when
leading running plays on his side
of the line, and Al Demao's line
backing stood out in sharp relief.
Baugh Back in Form.
On offense the Redskins used
some of the stuff Washington
fans have wanted to see for a
long time. Baugh. whose quar-
terbacking was grade-A again,
had Gilmer in at halfback on a
couple of plays and used him to
throw two passes from running
formation. One of these came
just before the end of the half
and Sam didn't nave enough time
to set it up properly, but it was
the tip-off on the new Baugh.
Later on Sam called on Dudley
for the same play to the opposite
side OF the field and, although the
pass missed, the Redskins got the
gain on an interference penalty.
The Cardinals apparently were
unwilling to gamble on using Jim
Hardy and Charlie Trippi to-
gether in their backfield and
seemed handicapped in their run
ming game while Trippi was on
the bench. Charlie was a threat
everytime he took the ball on the
soft. treacherous field.
The Cards took TO lead in
the first period on Don Paul's
l4-yard run. and after the Red
skins went ahead. the Chicagoans
came bick to make it 14-1O on
a sensational 72-yard pass play
