Bill Anderson, a 6-foot-3
195-pound TenneSsean who was
expected to fill a defensive half
back post for the Redskins this
year was at offensive end today
as the team bore down for its
third preseason game against
the Colts at Baltimore Fri
day night.
The tall, easy-moving Volun-
teer wasn't the only displaced
person, however, as Coach Joe
Kuharich continued expert
mentS that could result in some
drastic changes. In one back
field, drilling at the Washing
tonian Motel where the squad is
training this week, he used Sic
Watson, Don Bosseler and Bert
Zagers. In another he had Dick
James running with jim
Podoley and Johnny Olszewski
But Kuharich wouldn't commit
himself on a starting unit fol
Fridays game.
If Anderson comes through al
end, it would give the Redskin;
the third good wingman Ku-
harich is seeking. Johnny
Carson and Joe Watson are the
other two. Tom Braatz also
can handle the assignment, but
he seems destined to wind ur
as a linebacker on defense

offenSe. Then, too, ~Kuharict

choice. The Redskins liked Bills
offensive record, which showed
that he averaged over II yards
a try on reverse plays and
caught six passes for l02 yards.
But they were fascinated by
scout reports that called him
the Vols best defensive back.
He was the man, they decided,
to help bolster their sagging
secondary defense.
In training camp there were
times when Anderson looked
worse than a three-day-o
plate of sphagetti, but he had
the common complaint of a
pulled leg muscle. He was green
and possibly somewhat awed by
it all, and got off to a slower
start than Silky Sullivan. But
Kuharich feels Bill may have
found himself in the last week
and is about ready to blossom
into a real pro. 1t couldn't hap
pen at a better time because
the man with the pruning
shears will be around again
next week and a half dozen
heads must roll to meet the

it, things are in a turmoil. "

The Senators are receiving
the slickest relief pitching in
the majors at the moment, but
it isn't being reflected in the
win column. Generally it has
come too late and has been &C.
companied by what amounts to
no hitting.
Washington f1remen have
been scored on only twice in
their last 80 innings. Truman
Clevenger was pounded for five
runs by the Indians in one in
ming the other day, and a hon.
er yielded by Hal Griggs to
Kansas City's Hector Lopez is
the only other scoring achieved
against the Senator's believers
in the nine games they've been
summoned to duty.
Three Hits Over Span
Jim Constable and Hal Griggs
extended the scorelesS relief
pitching to 1925 innings last
night, but it came after Russ
Kemmerer had been clipped for
five runs. Thus the Senators
bowed to the SEVENTH pitching

In their latest scorelesS spar
the Senators f1remen have
allowed only three hits. This
may be encouraging for the
future-whether it be in Wash

present.

MARSHALL S Bid
For Stadium
Redskins Chief
Offers 10 Per Cent
Of Gross Receipts

A decision by the Armory
Board on a rental proposal
by George P. Marshall for the
projected municipal stadium
here was awaited today fol-
lowing a meeting in the Dis
trict Building yesterday in
which the Redskins president
offered 10 per cent Of gross
receipts after taxes.
George F. Shea. board chair
man, said a meeting of the
board would be held shortly,
possibly today, in an effort to
reach a decision on Marshall's
proposal.
After yesterdays 21a-hour
session, Shea said in a state
ment: The Armory Board and
its Advisory Committee have
the definite conviction that the
stadium should be built in SUBJ
Stantial compliance with the
act passed by Congress"
Seeks Higher Percentage
The act provides for an SO
million stadium to be financed
by 30-year bonds. It would
seat $4,000 and be adaptable
for football, baseball and other
major attractions. It would OPP
crate under the direction of the
Armory Board. A site near the
Armory has been chosen for
the arena.
Chairman Shea said Mar
shall's offer would be presented
to the District Commissioners.
1t was indicated after yes
terday's meeting that the boarC
felt 1914 per cent rather thar
10 would be more equitable.
