captain and All-State guard, Joe
Palumbo, will have to do the same

Stur Stoff Correspondent

BIRMINGHAM, Sept. Bert
Bell. commissioner of the National
Football League, is juggling an
other hot potato that threatens to
lscorch his administrative fingers.
1t concerns Bob Smith, Texas A. g.
MS classy fullback, who marched
jail over Georgia in the Presiden-
tial Cup game last December at
College Park.
Smith. who has another year of
eligibility at A. & M. presumably
was safe from tn football draft
when the club owners assembled
at Chicago last January to divvy
up the 1850 college player crop. So
when the Cleveland Browns an
Inounced him as their fifth choice,
there was quite commotion.
He can't be drafted" shouted
George Halas of the Chicago
Bears. HE isn't eligible. 1t isn't
legal"
The other owners, all we'll aware
Iof Smiths prowess, nodded agree
.ment. But Paul Brown, crafty
Cleveland coach, had an ace in
the hole.
1t seems that Smith, fresh out
of high school. but a credit shy of
college requirements, enrolled in
summer school at Tulane, asSum-
ing he would be eligible for fresh
man football in the autumn. What
happened thereafter would be
only guesswork on our part, ex-
cept that Smith turned up at
Texas A. 81 NJ, which couldn't
find a thing wrong with him,
especially the way he carried a
football.
Brown contends Smith enrolled
lat Tulane, according to what
we've heard. while Halas claims
to have documentary evidence to
the contrary. 1t sounds interest
ing and somebody had better get
the first aid kit ready for Bell.
Dick Todd, Redskins backfield
coach who tutored Smith last
year, summed it up succinctly in
"a sturdy, Southwestern tone when
he said. THAT amt 10 cents
worth of cat meat they're scrap
ping over. Bob's worth a little
fight"
The Redskins seventh and last
exhibition game against Green
Bay at Alexandria September 2
shapes up as the real dress re-
hearsal for the big show. Fullback
Leon Heath and Tackle Jim Sta
ton, first two draft choices this
year, won't be ready before then
and others, like Johnny Papit,
Walt YowarSky, Eddie Salem, Bill
ly Cox and Sammy Baugh, should
just be reaching their peaks.

Juvenile Delinquency
is on Increase Here,
Welfare Board Told

Juvenile delinquency seems to be
on the increase In the District,
Gerard M. Shea. director of the
Department of Public Welfare has
reported to the Welfare Board.
There were 81 children COM
|mitted to institutions by the Ju-
venile Court in February-more
than in any month since June,
1948, when there were 81. The
average number per month for the
last year has been 20 children
The February commitments in
cluded 81 boys and IA girls.
Mr.. Shea also told the board. at
it's meeting yesterday, his depart
ment is feeling the impact of
stepped-up expansion Of the Fed
eral Government. On March Is,
he said. there we're 80 jobs open,
and since then, is more employees
have resigned.
The board considered what to
do when the Washington Home
for Foundlings is deprived of funds
from the United Community Serv-
ices and the home will not be
available to the welfare board. It
is estimated that IS per cent of
the inmates of the home are being
paid in part from welfare funds.
The board decided every effort
be made to find boarding homes
for the babies or space in public
institutions. If this does not. solve
the problem, the board will try
for earlier placement of the found
lings in adopted homes.
During February, 1859 persons
received aid from the Public We'll
fare Department, at a total cost of
$426,426. This was $35,119 below
the estimate and enabled the de-
partment to increase the grants
from "a per cent of the 1850 living
cost to 80 per cent.
