BY FRANCES LIDE

The Daughters of the Amer
lean Revolution as a patriotic
society, had a champion today
in an organization of Ameri-
can veterans of Mexican ORR
gin.
Representatives of the Amer
lean CT Forum of the United
States and affiliated groups
came to the support Of the
society in a telegram sent to
its headquarters here following
the controversy which erupted
this week over the remark of
a Denver Daughter (Mrs. Char
lotte c. Rush, that she
wouldn't want a Mexican to
carry Old Glory" in a OAR
sponsored pageant.
Mrs. Frederic A. Groves, OAR
president general. today re-
leased an exchange of tele-
grams with the veterans
groups.
The latter described the
American @. 1. Forum as "the
largest veterans organization
in the United States that
represents American veterans
OF Mexican origin who served
their country honorably in
three wars.
I'VE, the American CT
Forum Of the United States, its
State Forum Groups and it's
local Forum Groups. feel pity
towards Mrs. Charlotte c.
Rush, who couldn't permit boys
of Mexican origin to carry
our American flag in a patri-
otto celebration" the telegram
stated in part.
I'VE, like Lincoln. bear no
malice toward Mrs. Rush and
instead feel sorry that she has
shown such feelings.
AT the same time, we feel
certain that Mrs. Rush does
not represent the true feelings
and sentiment Of the Daugh-
tiers Of the American Revolu-
ton. which we respect and like
as another patriotic organi-
cation"

Club Statistics
Show Redskins
Had Good Year
BY LEWIS y. ATCHIsON

The Redskins may point with
prlde-and they do-to the
1857 club statistics. which In
dicate the team was better
than its 5-6-i record.
In fact. the figures COM
piled by Art Stickley. who has
kept tab on the pros since
they arrived in Washington,
are rather interesting. The sta
tistics tend TO make champs
of the team that temporarily
shares third place with the
Pittsburgh Steelers-who be-
latedly end their season against
the Chicago Cardinals Sunday.
One Of the most glowing in
dividual performances. though
overshadowed by Gene Brito's
defensive play and the ball
carrying Of the rookie backfield.
was Sam Bakers punting. Sam
booted so punts 2.l39 yards for
a 42.8 yard advantage. He was
fourth best in the league.
Only SS Yards ON Runbacks
But the remarkable thing. +"
pointed out General Manager
Dick McCann, who has q keen
eye for figures. lis that on SO
runbacks the opposition got
only 8S yards. That's an aver
age Of less than two yards"
Nobody will dispute that
Bakers magical toe was q big
factor In making the season in
teresting for Washington fans.
"And our so-called sieve-like
pass defense" crowed McCann.
intercepted l6 passes while
our opponents got only Is Of
ours"
Statistician Stickley's pen,
however. notes that the oppoSi-
tion passed for 2.003 yards
against the Redskins. which
made the difference between
q winning and losing season.
Keeping their minds on foot
ball rather than rowdyism gave
Coach Joe Kuharich's men a
wide edge in penalties. 81 to
65 for the opposition.

giving the team one Of the
most consistent scoring punches
it has shown In q decade. Their
work was reflected In period
hy-period scoring. in which the
team was better In the second
half than in the first. Scoring
by periods went like this: So
57-80-S8-25l.
Eddie LeBaron had his best
year in pro football. as reported
yesterday in the league statis-
tics. He completed more passes
and gained more yardage than
ever before. had the highest
percentage Of competitions and
the least percentage Of inter-
ceptions. Eddie's II touch
downs. however. didn't come up
to the II scoring passes he
threw In 1858.
All in all. 1t was q pretty
good year for the Redskins, ac-
cording TO the statistics. The
only flaw is that they don't
show contributions of linemen
like Don Boil. Jim Schrader.
Dick Stanfel. Red Stephens.
Ray Lemek and the rest.
