Walker and Rote Bottle
Tonight in Cotton Bowl

DALLAS, Aug. "a (P.-The De-
troit Lions and New York Giants
battle tonight in a game due to
set a record for professional foot
ball attendance in the Southwest
and spotlight a couple of duels
that could produce dazzling re-
suits.
Probably $4,000 will be in the
Cotton Bowl as Doak Walker and
Kyle Rote, both former Southern
Methodist University greats, play
against each other for the first
time. Doak, veteran of year with
the pros, and Rote, a rookie. are
the main attractions.
But there's a pass throwing duel
in prospect between such dead
shots as Bobby Layne of Texas
and Charley Conerly of Missis-
sippi, quarterbacks. respectively,
for the Lions and Giants.
Walker and Rote' played to-
gether at Southern Methodist IN
1948 and 1949. A controversy over
which is the greater player has
ragged ever since the game with
Notre Dame in 1949. Walker was
out with an injury, but the then
unsung Rote played so brilliantly
the champion Irish were held to a
27-20 score.
The previous high mark for pro
football in the Southwest was 3d.
900 last year when the Lions
played Washington in the Cotton
Bowl.

CLEVELAND, Aug. "a. A
shortage of pitchers at Aiea Bar
racks in Honolulu, a chance meet
ing of a sports columnist with
Birdie Tebbetts in a New York
restaurant and an unwarranted
explosion of Bill Weeks temper
all figured prominently in con-
verting a light-hitting infielder-
outflelder into one of baseball's
top pitchers.
Bob Lemon. who put the Indians
three games ahead of the second
place Yankees with q three-hit,
81 victory for his 18th win here
yesterday, owes his success to
World War II. 1t was in the Navy
that Lemon became a pitcher at
the request Of beleaguered Billy
Herman. impressed a crack major
league catcher and then was swept
Ito stardom by fate and a strong
right arm.
Lemon had been a 1868 hitter
with Baltimore in 1912 before the
Navy grabbed him. Eventually he
was assigned to the Hawaiian
Islands. where Herman as man.
ager of the Aiea team-was hav-
ing his troubles in a league which
boasted many major league stars.
Pitched in High School.
The veteran second baseman
was short on pitching, knew that
Lemon was equipped with a
arm and asked him if he
had ever pitched. Yea, in high
school," Bob replied. II signed
with Springfield. Ohio. as a
pitcher, in fact. but I didn't do
much pitching because they
needed me worse in the infield and
outfield."
So Lemon returned to pitching
and one Of the major leaguers he
opposed was Tebbetts, then a De-
troit catcher in the service. Birdie,
on leave in New York, later
bumped into Whitley Lewis, Cleve-
land Press sports columnist, and
in the course of their conversation

CLEVELAND, Aug. "a. - The
New York Yankees. their pitching
pattern fouled up by injuries, will
reach into the bottom OF the
barrel tonight in a desperate ef-
fort to halt the Indians rush to-
ward the American League pen

Three games behind the Tribe
now, the world champions had no
choice but to select Stubby Over
mire, a second flight southpaw
with a 2-7 record, as their pitcher
in the second of a three-game
series that may all but put the
damper on the Yankees hopes Of
a third straight title.
The Indians, sitting in the
drivers seat. will counter with
Early Wynn. a 14-11 winner and
an unusually tough pitcher when

Redskins to Drop 3 Players
After Scrimmoge Tomorrow
BY Lewis +. Atchison
S,or stuff Correspondent,

LOS ANGELES. Aug. 24.-At
least three of the As Redskins still
IN camp will be dropped after
tomorrow's scrimmage, Coach
Herman Ball said today, as the
squad cut down to one practice
session day.
The scrimmage tomorrow will
be the teams last major workout
before breaking camp next We'd
neSday and heading for Amarillo
Tex, where it meets the Detroit
Lions Friday in the third game
jof a seven-game preseason tour.
With Rookie Bob Bates gone.
Ball moved Jim Ricca from de-
fensive tackle to offensive center
AT the same time he switched
Tackle Bob Hendren to offensive
end, indicating therell be more
Juggling until he finds the right
men for the right places.
Ricca Making Grade.
Ricca. a rookie whose status
with the club seemed very uncer-
tain. now figures Importantly in
Balls plans. If the big George
town lineman continues to i'm
prove he's sure to make the grade
on defense. If-and this is a
100-1 shot-he fills the bill as an
offensive center, it will release AL
Demao for defense, where he's
badly needed. Ricca's speed in
creased as his waistline decreased
and the discovery that neither the
Rams nor Forty Miners could
shove him around gave him self
confidence.
Rlcca'S good-natured, easy
going manner has been his only
fault but. Line Coach Orv Tuttle
thinks he can sting him out of it.
Hendren is pleased by his
transfer to a position he's always
wanted to play. A reformed
basketball player, with basket
like hands. Bob snagged passes
yesterday like an outfielder. With
his 6-foot-8 frame, he can out
reach most defensive backs, and
he can snatch passes off his shoe
tops. Hendren is speedier and
more agile than Bob Chubb,
rookie from Shippensburg State,
who still has trouble getting the
long ones. Hendren's experience
also gives him an edge.
YOwarsky Has Dual Job.
Ball has decided to use Rookie
Walt Yowarsky from Kentucky as
defensive end and offensive tackle,
and Veteran Jim PEBBLES just the
other way around. Yowarsky still
leaves much to be desired on Of
fense, but knocking down ball car
riers seems to come naturally to
him.
Ball looks for improvement in
all positions tomorrow, even
though pass defense Is still ragged.

Bitter Reflections of Those Who Lived
With Revolution and Found 1t False
THE BURNED BRAMBI,E

THE BURNED BRAMBLE
BY Names Sperber. Doubleday
This is a novel in the tradition
of Arthur Koestler and has won
the praise of that master of dis
enchantment. 1t has a gristly in
tellectual content which makes it
more the ex-Communist's ex-
Communist novel rather than an
unadulterated pleasure for the
common reader.
Mr.. Sperber, a Middle European
by birth who now lives in Paris,
broke with the party in 1887. His
novel is another of these blue
prints for the death of a dream.
1t shows the fear and horror and
despair of those who have lived
with revolution and found it
false. Like THE Case of Com
rade Tulayev." its quarrel is not
with communism but with the
way in which it Is practiced by
Stain.
"The Burned Bramble" is so
rich in the technical details of
party organization, deviation
'spotting, interrogation and liqui-
.dation that one is tempted to
think that Mr.. Sperber might
have done as we'll to cast his bit
ter reflections in fiction form
His characters are animated
points of view rather than people.
But every now and then humanity
creeps in through the dialectics
and he writes with fervent SYM
pathy of the people who cannot
understand the human sacrifices

dollars. and we could stop them
at any time" And the author is
aware: "In our role as taxpayers
we demand economy, but in our
role as beneficiaries we insist that
the ak fall somewhere else"
But that's merely passing
comment if it is not an opiniona-
tive book. but strictly a factual
account of what the Federal Gov
ernment means, or can mean, to
the average citizen.
Mr.. Jones, veteran newspaper
man, has been in recent years a
Washington correspondent for
magazines. He not only has or
ganized this book, with its index,
so that the reader unacquainted
with the Government can find
what he wants easily, but has
even managed to write in an in
teresting way on subject that
usually is dealt with in a dust-dry
style.
