LOS ANGELES, Aug. 10. -
Halfback Vic Janowicz, co-cap-
tain of the Washington Redskins
and second high scorer in the
National Football League last
year, was seriously injured early
today in an automobile crash.
Janowicz, who kicked a 14-yard
field goal and three extra points
in his teams 1921 victory over
the Los Angeles Rams last night,
suffered a conclusion. cut eye,
and bruised leg when the car in
which he was riding slammed
into a street light pole a few
blocks from the Redskins train
ing quarters at Occidental Col
lege.
The former Ohio State ALI
American was returning from a
gathering of teammates at the
home of Gene Brito. where they
had gone to celebrate their tri-
urnph over the Rams.
Janowicz was taken to Holly
wood Presbyterian Hospital
where it was definitely estab-
lished that he had no skull frac-
ture. The blow he received on
the head was similar to one foot
ball players frequently suffer on
the gridiron.
Janowicz was only semi-con-
scious late today and was under
close observation
The car was driven by Miss
Barbara Wagner, 81, of Los An
geles. student nurse. She suf-
fered possible rib fractures.
J. The accident is expected to
keep the hard-hitting back out
of action for at least north,
and is a severe jolt to the Red
skins plans. But Coach ice
Kuharich said he was not inter-
ested in that phase of the case.
"Our only concern is that
Vic is all right" Kuharich said.
Redskins officials made ar
rangements to fly Mrs. Janowicz
