Bones Taylor caught Harry Gil-
|mer's pass on Green Bays 14-yard
line.
It was Gilmer's pass. intended
for Gene Brito and intebceps y
Bobby Dillon, Texas q. rookie,
that set up the Packers first t1eld
goal In the opening period.
Rookie Eddie LeBaron figured In
the other nniscues. LeBaron got a
break when one Of his passes,
intercepted by Dillon was recalled
because Of q penalty. Two plays
later. the ex-Marine got OF q
wobbly punt that travelled only IL
yards out Of bounds ON his own
30-yard line. The Packers quickly
cashed In on that opportunity on
Ia pass from Babe Parilli to End
Abner Wemberly for a touchdown.
Ironically. LeBaron. did an excel
lent job Of punting. with a 39-yard
average in a cross-wind, although
rushed on most Of his kicks.
Ex-Redskin Grabs tumble.
John Martinkovic, Green Bay
end who tried out with the Red
skins last year. grabbed LeBaron's
tumble on Washington's 32-yard
line, to give the Packers their
final three points. Both Green
Bay field goals were kicked by Bid
Reichardt, rookie fullback from
Iowa. who connected for II and
43 yards.
Defensively. the Redskins played
well. Walt YowarSky, Jim Ricca|
and Paul Lpscomb were standouts
In the line and, with few excep-
tions. the secondary also handled
itself well, covering passes and
coming up fast to tackle runners.
Parilli and Tobin Rote completed
only three Of their 10 passes for
81 yards, while Gilmer and Le-
Baron connected on eight Of 23
for SO yards.
The running attack was better
than the Packers, too, gaining 102|
yards to Green Bays 50. But
backs-in-motion and off-side pen
alties, plus q couple of 15-yardl
setbacks for clipping and unnec-
esSary roughnesS, threw the Red
skins OF stride.
Lambeau said he hadn't given
up on either Gilmer or LeBaron,
but both need plenty of work. 81
The two quarterbacks weren't the
only ones who miscued. One was
Andy Davis. who had . mental
lapse on Parilli'S touchdown tossl
to Wemberly after performing ex-
cellently up to that point. An
other was Brito. who was far be-
low par.
Drazenovich, Dowda Gain.
, Chuck Drazenovich and Harry
Dowda accounted for most Of the
ground Of the Redskins touch
down drive. Drazenovich, start
ing from his own 46. got nine
yards through the line, and. after
the team was set back five yards
on penalty. scooted for 10 more.
Dowda came through with q 16-
yard run on q pitchout. before an
other back-in-motion penalty
Interrupted the drive.
Another IL yard gain by Chuck
moved the ball to the Packers II
and. after Dowda got three on 4
line buck. Drazenovich went over
from the four on two tries.
LeBaron's one poor punt was
costly. bat he put the Packers in
a hole q couple of times with
kicks within their 10-yard line.
One came late in the game and
Parilli's return kick went to the
Packers AZ. From there. Gilmeri
threw the 30-yard pass to Taylor
that was nullified by q penalty.
