Stopping Otto Grahams passes
isn't the only problem facing
the Redskins when they tangle
with the Cleveland Browns Sun
day at Griffith Stadium. It'll
help, of course, but the Browns
have a sort of leaky-hoSe offense.
Patch one hole and it leaks
through somewhere else.
Herman Ball, who secuted
the Browns in a pre- season game
against the Los Angeles Rams,
says they didn't look like the
same team in walloping the
Philadelphia Eagles Saturday
night. The Browns were only
fair in the warmup games, but
right now they are perfection
personif1ed.
Ball has seen all IL teams in
the league and he thinks the
Browns easily are the class of
the circuit. AS for Graham, well
he stands out like a beacon
among the current crop of quar-
terbacks. Otto belongs in class
with Sid Luckman, Sammy
Baugh and Bob Waterfield, and
they were a group apart from
the contemporary throwers.
HE completed one pass to
Darrell Brewster against the
Eagles without even looking
when he threw the ball." Herman
reported. "At first I thought he
was getting rid of the bali, but
the way Brewster took it, it had
to be a spot pass, and it was
perfect"
Timing Is Uncanny.
The timing on Graham'S
passes is uncanny. He's worked
for eight years with Dante La
velli, his favorite target, six years
with Dub Jones, five with War;
rem Lahr and four with Ken
Carpenter. You could set a clock
by their timing.
But, as Coach Curly Lambeau
of the Redskins noted, breaking
up the Browns passing attack is
only part of the huge job facing
the Redskins.
you've got Harry Jagade and
Marion Motley to think about on
those fullback plays" Curly

stop everything they throw at us.
on the ground or in the air
The Browns "fullback late"
play is one of the most effective
in pro ranks. Graham and his
pals work it to perfection. Otto
goes back as if to throw, and
the next thing you knSw Jagade
or Motley is tearing up the mid
die like a fire engine in pants,
Its tough to STOP" Ball ad-
mits. "Rush Graham and he'll
pass on you. Lay back and you
get that fullback up the middle. !"
Lavelli will give the Redskins
secondary a major test on but
ton-hook passes to the sideline.
He has gotten Graham out of
more tight spots time and again
on this play. It is almost un-
stoppable when Graham is right.
Either Lavelli catches the ball
a yard inside the line for a first
down, at least, or it goes out of
bounds, safe from interception.
And the Man Also Runs.
Double-teaming is about the
only way to stop the play, and
that leaves the defense wide
open for all sorts of trouble in
the middle. Not the least of
their worries is Graham's own
ball-carrying ability. He runs
once in a while, just often
enough to keep the defense hon.
est and worried, and when he
does he usually goes all the way
or puts the ball in position for a
score.
And, speaking of scoring, the
Browns still have Lou GroZa,
their perpetual field goal threat.
Anytime the ball is inside the
park Groza is liable to kick a
three pointer.
AS Ball points out, it's like
playing a team that has to go
only SO yards to score while you
have to go the full 100.
You think you've really got
troubles? You ought to spend
a few minutes with the Redskins
coaches this week.

It was the Scrapplng OF the
unlimited substitution rule that
made it possible for Bill Haley

for Holy Cross this season, but
Bills father doesn't like the new

At 5-foot-1O and ITO pounds,
Haley was a top defensive back

"At first I'm sold on this idea
of limiting substitutions," Billy's

I think maybe I'm just being an

Irish Officials Silent
On Reversing Stand
And Go 10 Bowl Game
By the Assoeioied Press

CHICAGO, Oct. 14.-You could
have heard a jaw drop at the
nearby Notre Dame campus to-
day when the subject of possible
Irish participation In a post-sea-
son Sugar Bowl game was men
toned.
Only official silence followed
disclosure that the long-standing
policy of the university against
bowl games could be reversed.
The Associated Press learned
reliably yesterday that, should
the Irish be invited to partici-
pate in the January / Sugar
Bowl game in New Orleans, their
athletic director, Ed Moose"
Krause would recommend it. It
was understood that informal ap-
proaches to Notre Dame already
have been made.
Never before has Krause been
prepared to make such a recon-
mendation, although Notre Dame
teams have received as many as
seven definite bowl invitations In
the past.
The final decision would be UP
to the schools seven-man ath-
letic board, chairmaned by the
Rev. Edmund Joyce and the
Rev. T. M. Hesburgh, Notre
Dame president.
Their policy in the past has
been Staunchly negative. How
ever no Notre Dame athletic di-
rector has urged the board and
the school president to reverse
this stand, as KrauSe is said to
be prepared to do this year.
Coach Frank Leahy and the
control board for sports at Notre
Dame offered no comment on the
disclosure. KrauSe himself said,
following publication Of the
bowl-possibility story:
There has been no change to
the best Of my knowledge in
Notre Danes policy with refer
ence to post-seaSon appearances
in football games"
NonethelesS, the feeling per-
sisted that the South Bend, Ind,
school could be had, especially
by the Sugar Bowl, whose Of
f1cials have enjoyed long and
friendly relationship with the
Notre Dame athletic chiefs.
Now friends of the university
feel the time has come to bid
for the glory and dollar-reward-
ing benefits incident to bowl ap-
pearanceS. KrauSe appeared at
a Chicago football luncheon yes
terday but devoted most of his
talk to a discussion of college
football telecasts.
He and Notre Dame long have
opposed the limited television
program of the National Col
legiate Athletic Association.
Krause said the Irish game
with Pittsburgh Saturday will be
piped into Il theaterS around the
country at regular admission
charges but that the school won't
make any money on the deal.
He again urged unrestricted tele-
casting of college football. !

belongs to youth. Why not give
it to youth?"
Pete knows about youth. AS
director of athletics for the
Catholic Youth Organization IN
this area, he had more than
1000 youngsters participating in
athletics under his direction last
year.
Four Scores in Two Games.
Billy, who doubles as T-quar-
terback and single-wing half
back for the Crusaders, scored
two touchdowns and passed to
another as Holy Cross defeated
Colgate, 1876. He scored two
more touchdowns, one on a 40
yard return with / punt, in q
400 victory over Bucknell.
Another Haley, Pat is an end
at Villanova, while Pete, ir.,
played SIX games with Villanova
before going into the Army in
1852. Now an automobile sales
man, young Pete plans to go
back to college.
While Billy went to Gonzaga,
Pete attended Wilson and Pat
went to Georgetown Prep The
youngest football-playing Haley,
13-year-old Johnny, is quarter
backing the st. Johns freshman
team. Johnny led the Washing
ton Boys Club All-Stars to vic
tory in the Santa Claus Bowl at
Lakeland, Fla, last December.
West Is Standout.
Several other products of area
high schools have gotten off to
good starts this season.
Eddie West, the former Mount
Vernon star, is a standout with
North Carolina State. This g.
foot-3 quarterback played every
second against George Washing
ton without once bobbling the
ball, completed IL of 26 passes
for 189 yards, did a good share of
the running and all the punting
Bruce Hillenbrand of Wash
ington-Lee was Wake Forests
leading ground gamer last sea-
son and is off to a good start
this season, while his brother
Dean is also on the team.
Joe Hands, formerly with St.
Johns, is playing guard at Duke,
while two scholastic ends from
the area are at Maryland. Tim
Flynn, st. Johns and Bulls, is
recovering from an injury re-
ceived in the Missouri game and
hasn't played since. The other
end is Jim Parsons of Wilson.
The George Washington roster
is sprinkled with names of for

CIV in Better. Shape

team will be in much better
condition physically for Friday

ginia at Griffith Stadium than
it was last year when it went
to Morgantown and lost, $40.
The Mountaineers are bring
ing almost the same team here
they had last year-End Paul
Bischoff is the only player of
any Importance missing - while
CIV should be stronger than it
was If only because the squad
has escaped any serious injuries
so far. Last year; when they
played the Mountaineers the
Colonials had a long injury list
that included Halfback Len
Ciemniecki, the teams leading
ground gamer and scorer: Leroy
Courtney, the punter. and sew
eral important linemen.
CIV Isn't Giving Up.
The Colonials will be distinct
underdogs for Friday nights
game against the country'S 10th
ranking team, but the coaches
and players don't think there's
so much difference between the
teams that they don't have a
chance. The Colonials are GER
tain they are better than last
weeks unexpected 24-20 loss to
Virginia indicates, and they
want to prove it in their first
1853 game at Griffith Stadium.
The presence of Ciemniecki
should make a difference. He's
the fastest man on the squad
and it's reflected in the statis-
tics. Several nice breakaway
runs have raised his average to
five yards a carry and altogether
he's gained 106 yards in the 81
times he's toted the ball. He's
caught four passes for 155 yards.
an average of close to 80 yards.
Ciemniecki's defensive play is
a bit suspect at times; that's one
of the disadvantages of one-pla-
toon football, but the coaches
are giving him extra drilling on
defense and believe he'll be a
better guardian of his territory
this week than he has in the
past.
GaSkell Also StandOut.
Another player who shows up
we'll in the statistics is End Richie
Gaskell who scored two touch
downs last week on pass catches.
He now has taken in six aerials
for 201 yards in three games.
Passing has been the Colonials'
strongest weapon in it's first
three games with an average of
180 yards through the air to 139
on the ground. Quarterback
Bob Sturm has completed IL of
81 attempts for 201 yards and
Quarterback Ray Fox has made
good 10 of IS chances for $50
yards.
Statistically at least, West Vir-
ginia's passing game does not
equal GW's. Their best pass
catcher of last year. Bischoff,
has been graduated. The Noun
taineerS have had such a fine
running attack they haven't
needed much passing. but they
have completed nine of 20 for
180 yards. Against Pittsburgh,
their toughest opponent to date
and one they beat, 17-7, they
threw only five passes.
