Ford Has Rosy Outlook
Over Depth Of GWHiqh
(Another in a series)
BY DICK SLAY

There are two yawning gaps
in George Washington High
School football this year. and
they'll remain unrepaired, ac-
cording to Coach Jim Ford.
Quarterback Mike Agee has
graduated to Washington State
and End Coach Harry Caughron
has moved to new Hammond
High. Otherwise. things are rosy.
No one will take Agee's place
simply because he was All-Met-
ropolitan and All-Virginia. But
Mike Delnegro. who never played
football before last year, has
gained weight to about ITO
pounds and throws accurate
passes up to so yards. He could
be the difference between an
other 7-3 record and something
closer to an unbeaten season,
although Ford doesn't speak in
those terms-yet.
AS for Caughron, the Alexan-
dria school system is not giving
Ford another assistant in his
place. But Frank Kapriva, Steve
Osisek (when he returns from
Europe) and Bob Tabor could
be enough help because Caugh-
ron's special brand of coaching
may not be necessary.
Ends Have Experience
That is because ends such as
Bob Garda. Bucky Poole, John
Welch and Phil Yates all have
size and experience.
Elsewhere, there is size and
power at fullback. speed at the
halves and fair weight in the
middle of the line. Fred Bern
hard, who was Mount Vernon'sI
outstanding tackle last fall, sur
prised everyone by walking into
the CIV camp this week. His
folks have moved to Alexandria
and his 180 pounds of how
fit in nicely with Ford's situation
at tackle.
Adding Place-Kicker Warren
Randolph and several boys from
the non-letterman category to
the list, Ford sees three teams at
his command, two with fair ex-I
perience" who can go both ways.

WI High Builds Hopes
On Experienced Offense
BY BOB HANSON

Coach Bob Waldorf at Wash
ington-Lee High, never one to
give out with a great deal of OPP
timism concerning the prospects
of his football team, is viewing
things much brighter this year.
In scanning the roster, partic-
ularly the backfield, a pretty
good picture comes into focus.
An offense built around Wayne
Ballard. Fred James, Dick Cavi-
oala and Co-Captain Gene Sher-
man might carry the mail pretty
far for the Generals.
We're satisfied with the
progress of the backfield," WAL
dorf said. IF it continues to i'm
prove it may turn out to be the
best we've had here in several
years, certainly the best bal
anced."
Ballard, 6-foot, ITS pounds,
may turn out to be as good as
Art Ebert who was wills quar-
terback when Waldorf took over
the coaching reigns at the Ar
lington school three years ago.
According to Waldorf, Ballard
Is more adept in his ball han
ding than Ebert and with steady
work may Surpass him as a pass
er. Ballard was No. 2 behind
Dennis Damon last year. He will
do the place kicking and field
goal tries.
Wen open up our passing
more this year." Waldorf de-
clared.
But the running game still will
be big part of the attack as
long as speedsters like James,
5-foot-9 and 165 pounds and
Cavioala. 6-foot-1, ITO pounds
are on the loase from the half
back positions.
Sherman Heavier
Sherman. son of Bo Sherman,
head coach at George Wash
ington University, is the solid
choice at fullback in this all
senior backf1eld. He comes in
5-foot-ll and 1870 pounds, some
10 or Is pounds heavier than in
his sophomore year.
Backing up this quartet will be
such promising hopefuls as Steve
Reid, Bill Easton. Mike Cardoni,
Charley Davis and Glen Allgaier.
The best bets in the middle of
the line appear to be Co-Capt.
Rick Bryan. 5-foot-9. 1876 pounds,
at center; Alan Henry, 5-foot-
10, 185-pound tackle, and three

Diagonally across from the main center

ton. OF vital Importance to the success
of the business community Is another
project, sponsored by the State Of Vir-
ginia. Seven Corners, once called the
worst-congested intersection in the State,
is being reconstructed by the Virginia De-
partment of Highways, with an overpass
to carry LeeSburg pike traffic over that Of
Arlington boulevard. Other approaches
to the intersection are being regarded and
rebuilt to eliminate bottlenecks and facil-
itate the movement of customers in and
out of the new commercial center.
The shopping center movement has
proved to be boon to suburban residents
and Stimulant to regional development
generally. And, fortunately for urban
business, the city stores have reported
that they have continued to do well. A
beneficial side effect has been the easing
of traffic congestion in the downtown
district-itSelf an encouragement to those
who prefer to trade in Washington stores.
So it is apparent that the whole commu-
nifty stands to benefit, directly or indi-
rectly, by a healthy growth of the shop
ping center idea.

A Personal Report

The President, in what he called a
personal report" to the people, got his
reelection campaign of to good start.
Despite heart attack and major
surgery, he looked fit and we'll. His voice
was strong and his delivery good. There
seemed no reason for doubt when he said
that he was confident of my own physi-
cal strength to meet all the RESPONSE
bilities of the presidency" and that If
this were not so he would never have
accepted denomination. OF course, no
one can know what four years might
bring. But If Mr.. Eisenhower can hold
to the pace and tenor of his opening ad-
dress, it is going to be difficult for the
Democrats to make persuasive issue of
his health.
The speech itself was a reflection of
the advantage which lies with an in
cumbent President when he has a reason
ably successful record of performance in
Office.
Mr.. Eisenhower hit hard at Adlai
Stevenson, without naming him, on such
things as the Stevenson comments on
our economic strength, disseminating H
bomb tests and the possible ending of the
draft in the foreseeable future. In SubSe-
quent statements, Mr.. Stevenson has tried
to retrieve his errors with respect to the
last two of these. But his initial COM
mentS, made no doubt in the belief that
one In his position must attack, left him
vulnerable, and the President did not
neglect his opportunity.
For the most part however, the
speech was review of what Mr.. Eisen-
hover considers the major achievements
OF his administration and a report on his
hopes and plans for the future. In our
Judgment, the President handled well
both himself and his subject. The tone
was good and there was no suggestion of
demagoguery. Whether Mr.. Eisenhower
will stick to this high ground as the cam
paign gets rougher remains to be seen.
But this initial effort was very much in
keeping with the role that President Eli
senhower, the campaigner, is best
equipped to play.

Shopping Center Evolution

The decentralized shopping move
ment which began in a small way in
Boston nearly 81 years ago has reached
new proportions with the opening to-
day of the first group of stores in this
areas latest and largest shopping CEN
ter, at Seven Corners, in nearby Fairfax
County. 1t is a far cry from the birth of
the branch-Store idea back in 1922, when
Slattery'S department store opened a COL
lege shop at Wellesley, Massachusetts,
to the imposing, Sprawling, 41-Store retail
center near completion at Northern Vir-
ginia's busiest intersection. The evolu-
tionary process has been amazingly rapid
In recent years, both here and elsewhere.
Slattery'S found that its Wellesley
branch was we'll patronized by residents
of nearby Boston suburban communities,

adopt the major branch store plan. 1t
opened its Spring Valley store in 1912.
Hecht'S joined the movement after World
War II with the building of its big branch
at Silver Spring, Maryland, and Wood

store at Wisconsin and Western avenues,
serving the Bethesda Chevy Chase area.

In Alexandria. Sears, Lansburgh'S and
other large stores also have branched out
in the suburbs.
Meanwhile, the single branches of
the big urban department stores had
become hubs for satellite shops of varied
types, bent on catering to the shoppers
attracted to the bigger establishments.
Today's convenient shopping centers,
with ample parking facilities for motor
lists, are the result. The Shirlington,
Parkington and Clarendon centers in
nearby Virginia and the Silver Spring,
Wheaton, Eastover and Langley Park
centers in Maryland are typical of such
developments.
Undoubtedly the largest undertaking
of its kind however, is the huge center
that has sprung up al Seven Corners,

Suez Fog

An American, returning 10 JnlS COuH-
try from his job as Suez pilot, predicts
chaos next month when the fogs set in.
From this distance, however, the canal,
at least in its controversial political
aspects, is already fogbound.
Secretary Dulles speech in London
is described as an explanation of his plan
for a users association-an organization
of nations which use the canal. The idea,
in broad terms, is that these nations
would band together, hire their own pilots,
collect the tolls while paying fair COM
pensation to Egypt, and then see whether
President NasSer will let them send their
ships through under these conditions.
Mr. Dulles added few, If any, Signi1-
can't details, and one is left pretty much
to guess what he really has in mind.
Evidently Mr.. Dulles still has some
hope that President NasSer will accept
this project on a provisional de facto
practical operating basis" despite the
latter'S categorical and belligerent state
ments to the contrary. The Secretary
of State may also be aiming at other
goals-to gain time, to organize the larg-
est possible body of world opinion in
support of his project and to lay a foun-
dation for test case on which the dispute
might later be taken to the United
Nations.
His great difficulty is that he, as we'll
as France and Britain, find it necessary
to rely on speculative rather than tan,
gible acts of obstruction by Egypt. Mr..
Dulles said that 'if" the Egyptian govern
ment were to do SO and so, one thing or
another would result. He said that
Egypt'S seizure of the canal offers infinite
possibilities" of covert violation of the
obligation to keep the canal open to all
shipping. He said that lack of, efficiency
can" be a grave hazard All of these
things are true, of course, but in their
speculative form they do not provide a
solid basis for marShaling opinion and
organizing effective action against Egypt.
Meanwhile, Egypt is continuing to
operate the canal with reasonable eff
cheney, and her officials are claiming,
perhaps with certain air of whiStling in
the dark, that they will keep on doing so.
This makes it necessary, 1t seems to us,
that there should be a firm and we'll
considered decision on the part of the
United States, Britain and France. What
will they do if Egypt manages to keep the
canal in operation? Will they back down,
or, if Mr.. NasSer remains obdurate, do
they really mean to reroute their ships
around Africa? And if the latter, have
they any real plan and program for doing
SO? 1t was largely in this latter respect
that Mr.. Dulles speech raised many queS-
lions which he left unanswered.

4 YEAR OR 1S MONTHS?
Germans Debate Draft, Too

BONN.-As far as the At
lantic alliance is concerned,
the most important question
current here has to do with
the Bundestag's coming de-
cision on length of service for
the young men scheduled to be
drafted into West Germany's
armed forces-which are still
largely theoretical.
The question is simple
enough in itself. It is whether
the Bundestag, the all
important lower house of the
free German Parliament, will
do the right thing and vote
for an l8-month term of duty
or whether it will do the wrong
thing and authorize merely a
12-month term. The decision
probably will be reached within
the next three or four weeks.
And unfortunately. from the
viewpoint of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization. it is
likely to be the wrong one. At
any rate. some of Bonn's most
knowledgeable residents seem
sure that the present outlook
is no better than that.
There are many reasons for
this: To begin with. 1861 is
an election year in the Federal
Republic. A new Bundestag is
TO be chosen next September,
and German politicians-like
our own and those of every
other free nation-have their
ears TO the ground. And what
they hear there tends, some
times, to make them rise above
principle, or even common
sense, and do the expedient.
vote-getting thing. Above all,
they appear to be deeply inn
pressed by the fact that polls
of public opinion indicate
Chancellor Adenauer and his
Christian Democratic Union
(Which is not really united on
the issue of military service)
have been losing ground to the
Socialist Social Democratic
Party (which opposes con-
scription while favoring some
vague sort of defensive effort
in association with NATO).

Although nobody in these
parts seems to be acquainted
with it today, there is an old
proverb of this country that
says: Wherever there are
three Germans there are al
ways four opinions" That
certainly holds true, with
multiplication, for the views
to be heard in conversations
here on the subject of the
draft. The draft, of course,
is already the law of the land,
