Washington fans did back in 1887 when ball was first
Up to now the Colts can do no wrong and the fans

did you cry? Keith asked in the clubhouse
"Theyre supposed cry. They're too old-hand too
cynical Well the night our plane landed
at the Baltimore airport week ago. We had just oeen
cobbred by Green Bay Twenty-Five hundred maybe tnree
thousand people, gave the team cheering welcome"
A sEILOUT CROWD of 34o31 shivered the timbers of
Rube Goldberg Stadium in Baltimore when the Colts came
from behind and beat Redskins making 93 exhibition

of Unnatural Cavern like ants to lift their heroes to their
shoulders and carry them off the field
They found fullback John Huzvar who gained
90 yards by himself with his bacaryng They also carried

a part of either load.
This the greatest thing I've ever seen in sports
worth saying ut makes coaching this outfit easy Now
know how Charlie Grimm must have felt at Milwaukee dur

Normally one of the toughest phases coaching firing

kicked 52yard goal the ball seemed to sail funny
Instead of endoverend, it spiraed like punt Rechchar
simply was trying to kick it out of the stadium That's why
the ball behaved that way"
IN THE REDSKINS CLUBHOUSE Coach Lambeau wasn't

claiming up for good If Curley started talking he
would almost have to confess the Colts out-hused the Red
skins.
The hustle in pedestrian instances as to be-
hackneyed working for the Colts and no kidding
Strip down that squad that Molesworth is commanding and
you will find that under he surface 1t is coecton OF re-
jects sprinkled with few rockies.
Take Huzvar, Molesworth suggested year ago he
played Philadelphia Eagles Although he led them in

The analogy suggested by Moesworhthe Colts and the
Milwaukee worthy of thought. Remember the
Braves nigh hopeless sixth place ball club With
Milwaukee doing level best to kill them with kind
the EXPLOSIONS finished second in the National League
baseball race.
ON A MORE MODEST scale, perhaps Baltimore is trying
to do the with the football Colts They've wrung out
three times many than Dallas able to do and the
only half Baltimore indeed in position to
say with "You do everything big in Texas
In Baltimore do it a little bit bigger"
will be interesting that Molesworth brought the

who next spring will become the Baltimore Orioles OF the
League. rahrah hoopa really helped the Braves
the Colts it might also brush off the Browns that
is, Orioles.
Colts there is tendency here
to credit Keith Molesworth with finer coaching job than ne
is claiming He apparently has welded group OF so-caled
