Coach Says IntromuroIs
Stole W6L's Top Talent

LEXINGTON, Va. Dec. 10 (P),
Bill Chipley, Washington and
Lee University football coach, is
encouraging the schools alumni
TO try to get students who like
to get their face dirty" to apply
for academic scholarships.
To Chipley, this seems the
only way for W8SL to have a
good football team under the
schools program of de-emphasis
and reconsideration.
z The coach also said the uni
versity made a mistake in drop
ping football in 1854 and put
part of the blame for the Cen
erals poor 1855 showing on the
fraternities. Their intramural
teams drained the varsity Of out
standing prospects, he explained.
{ Chipley expressed his views in
q recent interview with Ed
Thomas. sports director Of sta
ton WSLS-TV. Roanoke.
W&L abolished intercollegiate
football in 1854 and restored it

Colts Bonus Checks
Reported Largest
In 7 eum's History

BALTIMORE. Dec. 10 R.-
Members of the Baltimore Colts
pro football squad will receive
bonus checks in today's mail,
repeatedly the largest yet paid
by the club since the plan was
inaugurated three years ago.
Don Kellett, president of the
Colts. refused to say how much
each player would receive, en-
phasizing that the organization
was not seeking publicity. He
admitted the sum was larger
than the $500 paid in 1858, how
ever. when the bonus came into
being. With a slump in attend
ance last year each player re-
ceived $500. The Colts had a
record breaking season at the
box Office this year, although
they finished with a SOL record !.

IT played against him two

leder remarked.
Although Crimmins and Lewis
appear to be building a passing
team, they also have potent run
ners in Jim Troglio of North

ami, Ohio. Troglio has a three
year average of five yards per
carry and Troxell has an 8.3
average.

with It,"
The coach said that unless
there is more interest generated
in football. by 1857 W&L will
have to schedule teams which
Sweet Briar "a nearby girls
SCHOOL, wouldn't even play.
Chipley did take some of the
blame himself. He cited his in
experience as a coach. the mex
perience of the players and the
fact W&L played subsidized
teams as contributing factors.
The football coach said more
spirit is being shown the Gen.
erals basketball team than the

subsidized. Seven subsidized
basketball players are on the
