Lions Likely 10 Give
Redskins Hard Time
In Buffalo Today
By Lewis F. Atchison
Stor Stoff Correspondent

BUFFALO, Sept. IL. - This
sports-minded lake city, which
failed to get a franchise in the
pro football shuttle a few years
ago, gets a look at the pros
again tomorrow when the De-
troit Lions and Washington Red
skins meet in an exhibition game
at Civic Stadium.
The kickoff is scheduled for
2:30 pm, and the game will be
televised in Washington by
WMAL-TV, channel 7.
Champions last year and prob
ably good enough this year to be
one of the few teams to repeat,
the Lions are at full strength
for the fray. They suffered nu-
merous minor injuries in their
PAPA tie with the Cleveland
Browns 10 days ago, but will
have everybody ready for the
Redskins. This includes Guard
Les Bingaman, giant middleman
of defense, and Cloyce Box,
speedy pass-catching end.
Redskins Stiffest Exhibition.
Roughed up badly by the Pitts
burgh Steelers "wednesday in
losing their third game in four
starts, the Redskins really are
up against it in what shapes up
as the toughest of the six pre-
season tests. The Lions are
hefty, experienced and fast.
Their only problem is guarding
against going stale, and it's too
early in the season for that.
Bobby Layne will call plays
for the champs and will have
! the likes of Doak Walker, Pat
Harder, Leon Hart and Box to
carry the mail. Hart and Box
give Detroit a paralyzing one
two punch in the air. The g.
foot-5, 262-pound Hart is death
on short, button-hook passes. AT
full strength the Redskins would
have trouble stopping him. And
if they concentrate on the for
mer Notre Dame star, Layne can
turn Box loose for long passes
doWnfield.
If the Redskins spend too
much time looking for passes
they may find jug Girard and
Harder chewing up their line
with off tackle thrustS, and
Hunchy Hoernschmeyer and
Layne sweeping the ends.
Box Was Lions Top Scorer.
Box was the Lions leading
scorer, and the leagues second
high, with Is touchdowns. He
was nosed out for scoring honors
by Gordie Soltau of San Fran
cisco, whose place kicking on
field goals and extra points
helped him nose out the Lions
end 81 to 80.
The Lions had no trouble run
ming up scores in their first four
games and are expected to con-
tinue the trend against the Grip
pied Redskins. Defense was the
Washington eleven's strongpoint
until it lost three of it's best de-

Injury 10 Foot
Healing Slowly,
Vanderbilt Says
Dream Race Likely
To Be Staged Oct. "a
Over Longer Route
(Ptcture on Page C-5.)
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 12.-Bel-
mont Parks dream race" be-
tween Native Dancer and Tom
Fool blew up with a bang today
when Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt
announced that The Dancers
foot injury had not healed
rapidly enough to permit him to
be trained for the $4,000 Sy-
sonby Mile September 26.
Native Dancer, beaten only
once in his brilliant 19-race
career, suffered bruises to his
left front foot in winning the
American Derby at Chicago's
Washington Park August %.
Three bruised parts were cut
from the foot more than a week
ago and it seemed the 3-year-
old champion would be ready to
meet Tom Fool, the Greentree
Stables handicap champion, and
possibly other older horses in
the Sysonby two weeks from to-
day at Belmont Park.
However, Vanderbilt issued Q
statement at Aqueduct with
drawing his colt when it was ap-
parent the injury had disrupted
training plans.
Likely to Meet at PimlicO.
after Native Dancers last
workout (T'hursday) the injured
hoof showed that it had not
healed sufficiently from the re-
moval of the bruised parts and
that it would be approximately a
week before it would be safe
to continue full training" VAN
derbilt said.
"Inasmuch as the Sysonby is
only two weeks away, it will be
impossible to have him at his
best for this race.
ut would not be fair, either
to the horse or to the public, to
run him when he is not at his
best. So we feel we must an
nounce that Native Dancer will
not run in the Sysonby."
With the Sysonby out of the
picture, the dream race now may
be the $4,000 Pimlico Special
at Baltimore october "a. The
Pimlico race, by invitation only,
is a weight-for-age event at q
mile and three -sixteenths.
Bill Winfrey, Native Dancers
trainer, and John Gaver, who
trains Tom Fool, both have said
they probably would start their
chargers in the Pimlico Special.
Vanderbilt Originated Special.
Vanderbilt originated the Pim-
lico Special when he was tbs
head of the Maryland track. and
the Greentree Stable always nas
been represented in the race
when it had an outstanding
horse. Greentree has won the
Special three times, with Shut
Out, Capot and One Hitter,
Tom Fool is unbeaten this
year as a 4-year-old, winning
eight races. He is in peak form
for the Sysonby and, with the
Dancer out, his chief rival Sep
tember 26 may be Royal Vale.
Tom Fool beat the English-bred
by narrow margins in the SUBJ
urban and Metropolitan Handi-
caps.
IT'S just a matter of tine,"
Vanderbilt said, adding:
If the Sysonby was a week
later than it is. we would not
have to issue statement today,
as there would be a good chance
that Native Dancer would be
ready for the race"
| Vanderbilt and Winfrey said
The Dancers next start might be
in the $4,000 Jockey Club Gold
Cup at Belmont October 10. The
Gold Cup is a two-mile event
and Gaver said recently he did

Among other things it involves

True natives bear these things in
