Gets Tan Sfor

New York -- (ANP) - Foot
bali players are signing contracts
and Detroit comes up with a
top flight tan halfback, Johnson,
who plowed gridiron for the San
Francisco 49ers. In an unexpected
trade, the Detroit Lions grabbed
this great ground gamer, adding
tan star 10 their roster for the
first time since Mel Triplett was
released and Dave Mann fired.
They got a good man, an offensive
back, who can rip lines and gain
yardage when they need IT, San
Francisco wanted defensive men.
That has been their weakness and
to gain the men ne wanted, coach
Eddie Albert had to sacrifice a
great power house. The 49ers still
have Jet Perry, one of the great
est.
Meanwhile, the Philadelphia
Eagles announce the signing of
Eddie Bell, former Penn u star
and one of the two colored play
ers ever to wear the red and blue
Of Penn--for the 1857 season. Now
weighing 205, Bell. who played end
at Penn, is one OF the Eagles great
defensive backs. Last season in
one game against Pittsburgh, Bell
picked off four passes.
The Canadian League is also
busy, grabbing former Ohio State
star Roseboro, whose brother is
touted as a catching star for the
Dodgers. While at Ohio State,
Roseboro was a member of the
championship team and an out
standing half back.

however, that Memorial Day be-
came a formal observance, under
