Veteran Agojonion
Signed by Redskins
For PIoce-Kicking
BY a stor sioff Correspondent

LOS ANGELES, July 28.--Un-
able to find q place-kicker who
can park 'em in the end zone
among the a candidates already
in camp. the Redskins have
signed 35-year-old Ben Agaja-
MAN for a shot at the job.
The 6-foot, 225-pound Ar
menian proved that he can still
boot the pigskin in his first
workout. His two field goals
against the Redskins in last
years exhibition game here
helped beat the Washington
eleven, 20-10.
The Los Angeles club coaxed
him out Of retirement last sea-
son to replace Bob Waterfield,
who retired. Agajanian started
well enough, kicking 36 out of
81 extra points, and 10 out of
"a field-goal tries for a &C.
point total that put him seventh
in the league. But for Ben it
wasn't q good year. He was
injured toward the end and
missed eight straight field-goal
attempts. The Rams did not
pick up his contract.
Joe Kuczo, the Redskin train
er, treated Agajanian during the
Rams two-week stay in WASH
ington last season.
He had pulled a ham-string
muscle, and it's a wonder he
could kick at ALL" Joe said. "He
looks okay now"
Agajanian has been around in
pro football. He played with the
Steelers in 1916. Hollywood the
following year. the Los Angeles
Dons of the All-America Confer
ence in 1947 and 48, and the
Giants in 1949.

BALTIMORE July 2s.-With
