Contact Work Given
Redskins, 5crimmaqe
Set for Wednesday
By Lewis +. Atchison
Ssor Stoff ccsresponden,

Los ANGELES. July 2s.-Head
Coach Dick Todd won't send the
Redskins into their first scrim-
mage until Wednesday. but Line
Coach Marvin Bass gave his
charges a taste of contact work
yesterday with spotty results.
Outstanding rookie on the field
was John Kadlec, a 5-foot- -101a,
235-pound guard from Missouri,
who is surprisingly agile. Johnny
moved taller and heavier op-
ponents around like a veteran
baggage smasher. stamping him
lself as one Of the rockies most
likely to succeed.
Bass, hesitant to approve any
player on the strength of one
workout, was impressed by Kad-
Ices work. The rookie fits in with
the former William and Mary
coach's declaration that linemen
who show zeSt for body contact
will get preferred ratings when
pruning time arrives.
Backfield Coach Jerry Neri also
gave his men a brief sample of
what is to come Wednesday
emphasizing footwork and timing
by the quarterbacks. Naturally,
the men are not in good physical
condition yet, but there has been
a noticeable improvement in the
f1nesse of the backs. The extra
weeks work given centers and
quarterbacks apparently is paying
of.
One Of Neri's more pleasant sur
priseS had been Andy Davis
adaptation to quarterbacking
chores. The former George
Washington ace called plays for
the Colonials but never played the
T-formation before.
NOTES - Ben Whites ailing
knee will be X-rayed today to
determine his future with the
Redskins. If an operation
will help the former Southern
Methodist end. 1t may be done
Immediately to have him ready
for the second half Of the season.
. Eddie LeBaron slipped into
a group Of halfbacks working on
pass reception maneuvers and
was chased by Coach Neri after
being knocked down by Harry
Gilmer.
Chuck Drazenovich, who is de-
veloping into quite an all-around
man, is working on his punting
!. -. He boots 'em farther than
anybody in camp when he
hits 'em right. Jim Ricca, the
large gentleman from Georgetown,
believes he'll be able to handle
the offensive center chores, thanks
to a few hints from Coach Bass.
+. Big Jim is faster than he was
q year ago.

In Case on Arlington Jobs

The Arlington Civic Federation
has filed a petition with the
Virginia Supreme Court of Ap-

longing the right of a Govern
ment worker to serve on the
County Board.
Federation Attorney Malcolm
D. Miller asked the high court,
which is hearing the case today,
to reverse a ruling by Judge
Walter T. Mccarthy of the Ar
lington Circuit Court. He had
ruled, in a suit against County
Board Member Alan L. Dean, that
State law prohibits Federal en-

The court was requested to ac-

facts. In general, Mr.. Miller said,
the petition contends that the ef-

discriminate against Federal en-

Pre-C Convention Influence

Dewitt S. Hyde, Republican
nominee for Congress from the
9Th Maryland District, last night
said he thought the preliminary
work for the State Republican
convention held recently in Bal
timore had been run "too much
by a few friends of Gov. Nickel
din"
The actual convention, State
Senator Hyde said, was properly
run. but he felt that the dele
gates to the convention should
have been consulted more in the
committee work that preceded
the convention.
Senator Hyde declared he "de-
plores the animosity between the
two Republican groups of Taft
and Eisenhower sympathizers."
With respect to his own posi-
ton on the two leading Republi-
can candidates, Mr.. Hyde said
he was walking the fence"
His remarks were made at a
meeting of the Young Republi-
can Club of Montgomery County
in the Wheaton Recreation Cen
ter.
