about it after Wednesday nights

exhibition game with the Los
Angeles Rams will bring the first
real test.
The backs are uniformly small.
Quick and elusive, perhaps. but
at a distinct disadvantage when
a 6-foot-plus end goes up to
snag a pass. On spot throws
to the sideline, a Cleveland
Browns speciality, they look par
ticularly weak. Technical flaws
can be corrected. but without
height and reach, they'll be at
a distinct disadvantage.
Head Coach Joe Kuharich also
is still trying to land the big, fast
breakaway runner he needs at
right half. Dick James and Jerry
Planutis look fairly good there,
but the fact that Kuharich tried
to coax Jim Monachino out of
retirement indicates his desire
for more strength at the position.
Chef Ostrowski's knee and
Gene Britos pulled hamstring

the coaches concern about the
defensive ends. At their best,
this pair will take good care Of
the situation, but there is some
wonder now if they'll be sound

Lack Of Height Hampers
Redskins Defense Setup

State have shown that they
could give the offense a big lift.
Meilinger hasn't been consistent,
but once he gets his hands on
the ball he doesn't let go. He
still makes sensational catches
and misses the easy ones.
Rookie honors of the week
probably belong to Bill Fulcher.
Georgia Tech linebacker, who
has the same toughness and dur
ability that won a job last year
