Virginia Group
Hits Proposed
EStreet Bridge
Planning Commission
Reiterotes Support
Of Jones Point Site

The Northern Virginia Re-
gional Planning Commission
stood firm today in its opposition
to the proposed E street bridge.
The Virginians reiterated their
position last night. after a
lengthy discussion of report to
the Arlington County Board two
weeks ago which strongly sup
ported the E street proposal. The
report was made by special ad-
visory committee.
The Northern Virginia group,
instead. urged immediate con-
struction of A. bridge across the
Potomac at Jones Point in Alex
andria, to bypass through traffic
from congested downtown Wash
ington.
Opposition to the E street plan,
supported by the District High
way Department. was made on
grounds that District streets are
unable to handle additional
traffic which would pour into the
city.
Mrs. Kathryn H. Stone, Arling-
ton member of the commission,
made the most biting attack on
the Arlington advisory groups
report in a prepared statement.
Commission Director c. C..
Robinson. meanwhile, told the
group he is preparing up-to-
date information on coming, land
use, highway systems and popu-
lation for each political juris-
diction. in the area. The data
will be used by the commission
to draw up a master plan.
In another action the group
voted to form a special commit
tee. representing each jurisdic-
ton, to make definite program
the commission can work on for
the coming year.

Two teen age boys, ages 13 and
Is years, were captured by the
Marietta department of the
highway patrol and Sheriff Don
Conaway, Wednesday afternoon,
while they were driving a stolen
car thru South Olive on u. S..
route 21.
Dallas Bond reported his sus-
picion of the boys to Sheriff

ped at his place of business
south of Caldwell for so cents
worth of gas. The sheriff re-
ported them to Cambridge and
learned that the car they were
driving had been stolen in
Mansfield early that morning.
The Cambridge patrol relayed
the message to the Marietta
station and the boys were ap-
pretended only a few minutes
later.
They had stolen a gun in a
bowling alley somewhere along
the way from Mansfield Wed
nesday and were carrying the
weapon in the car.
The two teenagers were COM
mitted to Cambridge Jail Wed
nesday and taken to Mansfield

Robertson Sold
To Milwaukee
Caldwell Slugger
Now In Class "B"

On Saturday, Sept. 10, Bill
Robertson, whose home is on
Walnut street, received word
that the Lexington, N. c. base
ball club has sold him to the
Milwaukee Braves. No details of
the sale such as the amount paid
by Milwaukee have been learn
ed.
On the previous Thursday, Bill
had returned home from the
South to spend few days with
his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam Robertson, before entering
Muskingum college, New Con-
cord, where he is now majoring
in business administration. He
had behind him a season with
the Lexington team of the Tar
Heel league that netted him 18
homerS, seven triples, 27
doubles. His batting average was
.296.
1t was quite a surprise for l9
year old Robertson when he re-
ceived a copy of the sale con-
tract since this represents a
jump from Class D clubs to
Glass B.
It will be remembered that he
was released from the Salisbury
club of the Boston Red Sox last
June and started with Lexing-
ton two weeks after they had
initiated the season.
For the first time since 1910,
Lexington won the Tar Heel
league playoffs to win its first
baseball title by defeating
Marion, the regular pennant
winner. In that game, Bill
knocked in three runs.
Next summer, Bill will report
to Evansville, Ind, a Three !
League farm club owned by
Milwaukee.

ed back, Caldwell trailing 14-6.

Reeds kickoff following the
touchdown rolled into the end
zone and New Lex was downed
on their own four with a couple
of minutes left before halftime.
Three plays later, it was fourth
down and 10 yards to go on the
four and New Lex went into
punt formation.
At this point occurred the
most talked-about play of the
game. The punter fumbled the
ball, but seeing he was trapped,
he tossed the ball UPHELD,
where Walton took it on the 80
and was downed on the 20.
Had the ball dropped to the
ground, Caldwell would have
had possession on the four, or
possibly the one, since the Of
ficials could hardly escape call
ing intentional grounding" on
the play. At any rate it cost the
Redskins an almost certain
touchdown.
Four pass plays gained exactly
nothing and the half ended right
there on the New Lex 20.
The Panthers started the
second half in whirlwind fashion
once more as Dickerson sprint
ed SO yards to Caldwells 16 be-
fore Walton finally caught up
with him.
The Redskins stiffened their
defenses and took possession on
their own nine, but they were
still in the hole minutes later
when they failed to get a much
needed first down and New Lex
took over again on the "a.
This time Reed recovered a
tumble to stop the visitors, but
15-yard penalty against the
Redskins set the ball back to the
20, where Walton punted out.
In the fourth quarter, after
taking the ball on downs on
the New Lex 40, Caldwell
drove to another touchdown.
Realizing that their ground
attack was slowly but surely
picking up yardage, the Red
skin moved to the % where
again Walton shared pass
from Bates as he raced into
the end zone. Tom Ferguson
was stopped short on the try
for point leaving it 14-12.
The Redskins got one final
chance to score in the fourth
period with about three minutes
left. After taking the ball from
the Panthers on the New Lex
80, Walton picked up five yards
on the first play. Two attempted
passes fell short, then Ferguson
was downed after one-yard
gain, giving the visitors the ball
on their own Is.
Quarterback Bates was injur-
ed in the closing seconds of the
game, and was replaced by
Ferguson for one final offensive
play.

Miller and Dickerson.
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1953-10-01

In the second and fourth
quarter, Caldwell tailed on two
beautiful pass plays from Vance
Bates to Al Walton to get back
in the game, but they lacked the
punch necessary to produce
another deciding score.
On the ground the Panthers
notched 308 yards rushing COM
pared to 1853 for Caldwell, but
the Redskins completed four out
of l8 passes for Sd aerial yards
while New Lex missed fire on
six pass plays.
The Redskins took the OPEN
ing kickoff in a business-like
manner and spanked by Joe
Frederickson's 27-yard run, ad-
vanced the ball deep into New
Lex territory where they had
first down on the 12-yard line.
Just when it seemed that Cald-
well was driving to a certain
touchdown, quarterback Vance
Bates fumbled a hand-off and
New Lex recovered on their
own 20.
Bates was rushed and con-
stantly harassed all evening by
the fast-charging Panthers,
especially lineman Paul Gal
lagher, who time and time again
slashed between center and left
guard to get hand on Bates
wrist before he could back up
with the bali. Failure to block
this one man cast Caldwell
precious yardage on several
plays.
New Lex wasted little time
in getting their first touch
down. After two plays netted
five yards, quarterback Dale
Lett faxed a handOff to both
halfbacks, then tossed out to
fullback George Hill who went
wide around his own left end
and Scampered IS yards to
pay dirt. Jim Miller skirted
right end for the extra point
putting the Panthers in the
lead 10.
The Redskins had two more
attempts with the ball in the
first quarter, resorting to passes
both times. Each time they fail
ed to pick up any substantial
yardage and were forced to
punt. This second punt by Al
Walton went out of bounds on
Caldwell's As as the quarter end
ed.
New Lex tailed from here
early in the second period as
Hill again took a tOSS-Out and
went around left end for the
final Is yards. Rod DickersOn
buIled over center for the
extra point making it 14-0.
Sensing victory, the Panthers
continued to play inspired ball,
halting CaldwelIs passing at
tack and blocking Walton's punt
on the Redskin 25. At this point,
Caldwell showed a spark of de-
fensive play and took the ball
on downs on the %.
Going back to ground as
suit once more, the Redskins
marched downfieId 72 yards
to score. They attempted only
one pass on this series, but it
was the pay-Off pitch from
Bates to Walton for IS yards
and the touchdown. ROnnie
Reed tried the line for the
extra nOint but was hurl-

THE REDSKINS, smarting from
their first defeat since the
M & M game of 1851, invade
hoseville this Friday night for
another MVL contest with Yer
non Leuck's Ramblers. Roseville
was hit hard by graduation with
only three first string players
back from last season. These are
end Don Fleming, and halfbacks
George and Bud Spring.
ELEVEN LETTERMEN appear
on the 30-player squad. In ad-
dltlon to the above three, they
are fullback Ron Lynn, end Jack
Beall, halfback Larry Bishop,
quarterback Victor Duff, guard
Ed Cation, tackle Dan Williams.
center Bob Helm, and tackle
Tom Shipley.
THE RAMBLERS dropped their
opener to Crooksville's tough
combine 1877 with quarterback
Duff making the touchdown and
Bud Spring adding the point.
Last week, Roseville bowed to
M & M 20-7 with end Don Flem-
ing scoring on a pass play and
Duff adding the point.
LAST YEAR, the Ramblers put
up stubborn fight before the
Redskins defeated them 300.
Held scoreless in the first quart
er, Caldwell managed one touch
down in the second period as
Harley Fowler went 10 yards to
score. Al Christopher kicked the
extra point. In the third quarter.
Christopher passed IL yards to
Fowler for the second tally, and
a few plays later, Ronnie Schell
returned punt So yards for the
final score. Christopher booted
the second extra point for a 200
victory.
CALDWELL has defeated Rose
vile only four times since the
Ramblers joined the MVL in
1914. Roseville has won four
games, while one contest ended
in scoreless tie. Past results:
