Statistics, which offer little
consolation when the final
score is recorded, were de-
finitely in favor Of the Red
skins who ground out IA first
downs compared to five for New
Lex. In yardage gained, Caldwell
piled up 168 on the ground and
90 in the air for a total of 260
The Panthers picked up 158
rushing and SO by passing for a
total of 208.
Caldwell controlled the ball
throughout the game, permitting
New Lex only % plays, 10
rushing, two passing and one
punting. The Redskins on the
other hand, reeled off % plays
in the first quarter alone, and
62 in the entire game.
However, New Lex had fine
breakaway runner in all-league
halfback Jim Miller, who sprint
ed So yards for one touchdown
and Is for another to turn the
tide for the Panthers.
The Redskins opened the
game by moving the ball eight
yards on three plays up to their
own A. Jerry Heddleson, back
to punt, got bad pass and was
forced to cover the ball for a
loss giving New Lex possession
in Caldwell territory.
On the Panthers' first scrim-
mage play, the Redskin forward
wall charged hard and the ball
carrier fumbled, Ray Watson
recovering for Caldwell on the
80.
This time the Redskin scoring
machine ground out 81 yards
for touchdown with short
running plays by Joe Frederick
son and Sam Bates interspersed
with some flat passes to Sonny
Crock.
Despite two minor penalties
around the 10-yard line, Cald-
well managed to hit pay dirt
when Bates tossed short
pass over the line to Freder-
icksOn, the play going nine
yards. After Frederickson
plunged over for the point, an
OffsideS was detected on the
Redskins, and on second at
tempted pass from Bates to
FredericksOn was incomplete,
but Caldwell led 60.
The Panthers took the kickoff
following the score and advanc-
ed it to their own 81. Three plays
netted one lone yard as Cald-
wells line stopped the Panthers
dead, forcing New Lex to punt.
The Redskins were called for
clipping on this play and set
back to their own 20.
Another penalty two plays
later set the Redskins back
deeper, and Heddleson despite a
pass which almost cleared his
head, punted out to the New
Lex 48.

THE REDSKINS open their
home season this Friday night
by entertaining Roseville's Ram
blers in a game slated to get
underway at 800 o'clock. Coach
Vernon Leuck is fielding a team
this year with only three start
erS from last season (the same
as CaldwelD which should make
an evenly matched game. The
Ramblers dropped their opener
to Crooksville $50 and last week
bowed to McConnelsville 20-6.
THREE VETERANS on the
Roseville starting eleven are
right halfback and captain
George Spring, center Bob Helm
and left guard Bob Harper. Two
other lettermen are guard Joe
Ridenour and tackle Dan Will
liams. The backfield averages
1853 pounds per man with quar-
terback Sandy Smith the light
est man on the squad at 1875.
Captain George Spring tips the
scales. at 160 On the line, which
averages 164, right tackle Rod
ney Archer is tops at 212. One
interesting note in the Rambler
lineup is the fact that 10 of the
players are juniors, a factor
which points to stiff competition
next season.

Fumbles Slow Cavaliers.
The Cavaliers offense was

first play from scrimmage. From

extra point formation provided
the point.
After an exchange of punts,
Virginia got the ball on the

Weak Pass Intercepted.
The Cavaliers struck again

Stefanik, reserve Lehigh quarter

was back to pass and got off a
weak heave. Ray Quillen, Vir-
ginia end, picked it off and ran
10 yards for a touchdown.
Midway in the second quarter
Tackle Barney Wiley recovered
Hartwell's tumble on the Vir-
ginia two and Stefanik passed
to End Tom Faillace in the end

land it finally sank in"
Souchak was reminded that
he's pointed out by the galleries
as the long hitter. Doesn't that
give him the urge to let out
and show 'em?
II don't hear 'em anymore.
Mike answered. Som body
chimed in to say that Mike can
take his three-quarter swing and
hit the ball farther than most
anybody ON the tour. And when
he does let out, those driving
contests take care of caddie fees,
as they're worth 500 or $3.50
each.
Souchak has been on the tour
a season and a half and at this
point is running ahead of his
personal schedule. For the next
year at least he plans to hit
every stop, and then take stock
of the future.
Mike gives the impression that
he's good and knows it. But the
pros who travel with him say
he's not that way at all, and has
just enough confidence in him
self to make good.
That 81 at Fort Wayne and
his start here would give the
impression that he's a hot-and-
cold player. In the first round
at Congressional he was one
under with IS and then three
over with 38. The next day he
was three-over with 80 and
three-under with 80. But Mike
says those are extremes for him.
For a long hitter he's pretty
consistent.
You'd have to say that Arnold
Palmer and Billy Joe Patton are
pretty nice guys for what they're
going to do in couple of weeks
for a golf pro they don't even
know.

It seems impossible that Lit
tier could shoot a rs, but he
did, and he had to play the last
five holes in par to do that. He
ran into a double bogey S on the
18th to go four over for the
round about the time that Fur
gol started his late birdie streak
to pull away.
The 211 group, where missed
shot could cost as much as $500
today, included four big names,
Jerry Barber, Cary Middlecoff, :
Dick Mayer and Ed Oliver.
Barber and Middlecoff came
back with Cos yesterday.
Oliver Drives 18th
Oliver gave the home
crowd a thrill by driving the
green on the 299-yard par 4, a
feat accomplished earlier by
Rosburg, but in front of fewer
people. When the ball rolled
onto the green, Porky, as usual
when something good happens,
looked to Heaven and saluted.
Oliver came within a fraction of
an inch of making 40-footer
for an eagle.
Furgol, a real character of the
pro tour whose game has netted
him more than $4,000 on the
official list this year apparently
can, do no wrong.
On the first hole Marty bellied
a second shot but canned a 20
footer for par. On the second
hole he half-topped a long iron
and got away with it, the ball
rolling to the green. He was
over par on the third hole, and
at this point had not hit a shot
| well.
But he started to play on the
fourth and never was over par
thereafter. He reached the green
in two on the fourth, two-putted
for a birdie, and pared in for
a SO.
Marty pared the first four
holes coming back and after a
heart-to- heart talk with his cad
die, Buck. he knocked in a 22-
footer for a birdie deuce on the
14th. On the 18th he made a
33-foot snake" for a birdie
three, and then on the last two
holes missed two short birdie
puts. If he had made those he
would have put first prize out
of reach.
