shifting against you, so that
their linemen are heavy to the

line).
You directed each Of these
plays to your strong side,

stopped you with little gain
and you punted. Nebraska.

punted back.

That's no big shot. The husky

is Whitley Dovell, assistant

who in the last five seasons has
made about IS October and No

national Airport.

And the new car that Dick

helps.
Fincher is the handsome,
wealthy automobile dealer
husband of Gloria DeHaven)
who became a Maryland foot
ball fan when Jim Tatum was
the coach. He has remained
friendly with Coach Tommy
Mont and Dovell.
Every time Whitley goes to
scout Miami, or a team Miami
| is playing that is on the Mary
land schedule. there's a shiny
new car waiting, always with
air conditioning. After the
game Whitley leaves the car at
the airport. picks up a fresh
supply of cigars, and boards the
plane.
And Whitley stays at the
Cadillac. For the last few
years it's been the Shelbourne.
but football teams visiting
Miami have switched to the
Cadillac because of removal
tons at the Shelbourne Hotel.
Not So Glittering
But Whitley claims his trips
to Miami are not as glittering
as people make out. Every
body says how lucky I am be-
cause I go to Miami so much"
Whitley said yesterday. But I
go there to work. not play"
On his Miami scouting trips,
Whitey's usual itinerary is to
leave Washington on the TIPS
flight on Thursday night. It's
almost midnight before he's
in his hotel room, and he
spends an hour or two catch
ing up on scouting reports.
Friday mornings he takes a
short dip in the ocean and
then back for more paper
work. Friday afternoons he
visits assistant coaches of the
team playing Miami that night,
hoping to compare notes. Last
week he spent the afternoon
with the Villanova coaches.
Double Assignments
Miami always plays Friday
night games at home. After
the game he tries to spend the
night there and leave Saturday
morning for another scouting
assignment. Sometimes he has
to travel all night.
Last week Dovell and John
Idzik secuted the Miami-Villa-
nova game Friday night and
left Miami at 6 am. for Hous-
ton, where they secuted Glenn |

and he gets the distinguished
guest treatment at the Orange
Bowl, even to the point Of the
same seat for each game.
Sometimes Whitley doesn't
have two dimes to rub togeth-
er, but with his connections
you'd never know it. He puts
up a good front in Miami.

Will it be Lenny Moore's turn

But if he gets away after being

You can call the same play

There is no quarrel with that.
The complaint here is that a
pro should be able to block and
tackle, or he isn't a pro and
doesn't belong in the league.
Too often the Redskins seem
to be waiting for teammate
to come up and get the iop
done. Too many seem to have
lost the urge to cream" the
opposing back. Football, pro
football especially, is a tough.
bruising game. At draft meet
ings the coaches look for what
they call ''hard-nosed kids" or
players willing to hit. The Red
skins used to play that way,
but no more.
Kuharich says the films
show that the Redskins weren't
fooled by anything the Browns
did Sunday. except that one
end-around play that caught
them fiat-footed for 80 yards.
They were in the proper posi-
ton to stop Cleveland's backs,
but they didn't. Joe argues that
his boys did their best. Maybe
so, but being in the right place
at the right time is no good
If they can't stop the play. In
baseball the team that wins
the close ones usually wins the
pennant. In football the team
that comes up with the clutch
play also wins.
Maybe. as Joe says, we ex-

Probably so, for we know nov

The trouble was that the

The Colts, to use their coach's
own words, played a Shrinking

Redskins Have Problems
Ewbank insists he is still

plan that should produce a title
for the Colts next year, but
after several fast starts and
poor finishes there are signs
that club officials are not inn
patient but beginning 10 doubt.
The Colts could stage a come
back in the current race, of
course, and a victory over the
Redskins would be a good
starter. 1t most certainly would
appease Baltimore's rabid fans,
who take an almost savage de-
light in watching the Redskins
get walloped.
Meanwhile, the Redskins
have their problems. Norb
Hecker, defensive safety and
kickoff man, has a badly bruised
shoulder that will slow him in
practice this week and might
even keep him out of the game.

Nobody blames Joe Kuharich
for standing up for his football
team, as he stoutly does on all
occasions. But to us it seems
that several Of his men have
had it in the pro league. They've
lost something, the thing that
makes a pro a pro. And it's
showing up in the Redskins
record.
There is something wrong
with a team that wins big" one
week and gets clobbered a week
later. The Redskins may not
be the only team at fault in this
respect. Their shortcomings
are more noticeable because
they're closer to home and
Washington fans live and die
with them. And the fans don't
like it.
The score Of Sundays game
wasn't indicative, to our way of
thinking, of the lacing the Red
skins took. Take out Bert
Zagers' sensational touchdown
run on that 56-yard punt re-
turn, and the score that fol-
lowed Chuck Drazenovich's pass
interception, and the Redskins
run a poor second. 1t was al
most ironic that they could
have won if they'd had one
more chance with the ball.
But the most Kuharich would
concede after reviewing films of
Sundays 21-l7 loss was that
1.-The tackling was shoddy on
some crucial plays" That was
fairly obvious. We couldn't go
along with Joe's other observa-
ton that the team played as
well as it did in beating the
Giants the week before.

It's an old story that you
can't beat the second guess, the
morning quarterback S
privilege But no guesswork is
involved when the fans see a

three Redskins,

That's bad football. It hap
oened too frequently against the
Browns, against the Giants in
the first game here, and against
the Cardinals.
Cleveland's Jim Brown had
4 field day Sunday because of
slipshod tackling. He was hit
time and again but spun away
for more yardage. Ollie Mat

Decisive Victory
The Clemson triumph over
Rice was accomplished with
complete authority. Rice had
beaten LSU. Stanford and
Southern Methodist and lost to

But Clemson had the ball 81

completely dominated the Sec
ond half. Clemson had the ball
seven times in the game and
only once was stopped by Rice.
Three times the Tigers scored,
twice they were stopped by
penalties, once by Rice. and
once by the end of the game.

son that he might not have a

Scheduled on
Milk Pricing

Two milk-pricing hearings are
scheduled this week in the Wash
lington area.
A legislative group studying
milk controls and pricing in Vir-
ginia will hold a public hearing
Wednesday in Alexandria. The
hearing at the Recreation Gen.
ter. Cameron and Harvard
streets. will begin at 10 am.
The General Assembly ordered
the study by the Virginia Ad-
.visory Legislative Council after
persistent moves to reduce the
powers of the State Milk Com
mission, especially its regulation
of retail milk prices. The regula-
ton Of retail prices in Northern
Virginia has been held invalid
by a Richmond Judge. but has
remained in effect pending APP
peal.
Persons and groups interested
in the production. distribution
and consumption of milk have
been invited to present theil
views at the hearing.
A hearing opens tomorrow ir
Washington on a request by the
Maryland and Virginia Milk
Producers Association for Fed
leral order regulating prices paid
to farmers for milk.
The hearing by the Marketing
Division of the Department OF
Agriculture will begin at 10 am
at 1920 @ street NV. 1t is ex-
pected to last about two weeks.
A hearing examiner will take
testimony from producers. dis
tributors and consumers on
whether there is a need for regu-
lating prices paid to farmers in
the Washington area.
William B. Hooper, general
manager of the producers asso-
citation, said the request would
not affect prices to consumers.
but would end "disorderly mar
keting conditions" in the Wash
ington area.
At present. producer prices Of
milk coming into Washington
from Virginia are subject TO
controls by the Virginia Milk
Commission, but there are no
price controls on milk Washing
