Russians UnimPressed
By'Spoce Man Project

Russia's touring space Off
cials got a look at the Mercury
man-in-space program over the
week end, and maintained
poker-faced equanimity at what
they saw.
But they were like kids in a
candy store-an eyes and ques-
tions-when it came to some
other more prosaic items at
Langley Research Center.
Prof. Leonid I. Sedov and
Academician Anatoly A. Bla-
gonravov were taken to the CEN
ter, near Hampton. Va, Satur-
day by representatives Of the
National Aeronautics and Space
Administration. Prof. Sedov
chairman of RuSsia's Interplan-
etary Travel Commission, and
Gen. Blagonravov, Soviet rocket
expert, were in the United
States in connection with last
weeks American Rocket Society
meeting here.
The two officials appeared
only mildly intere sted in
Project Mercury, according tc
NASA officials who accom-
panied them. The Russian line
has been swerving recently
between official announcement
of a Red manned-space pro-
gram and equally authorita-
lively denials. The latest WORD
is that the Soviets won't dc
anything along this line until
there is a job for a man that
instruments can't do.
Prof. Sedov and Gen. Bla-
gonravov were likewise out
wardly unimpressed by work
being done at Langley on the

Full U. N. Debate
On Red Hungary
Is Recommended

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Nov. % (AP) The United Ma
tions Steering Committee over
rode Soviet objections today
and recommended full General
Assembly debate on Commu-
mist Hungary.
The move, led by the United
States, was approved by a vote
of is to 8 in the 21-nation COM
mittee. The one-sided vote
forecast certain ratification by
the Assembly itself.
The three negative votes
were cast by the Soviet Union,
Czechoslovakia and Romania.
Indonesia and Morocco alb
stained. The president of the
General Assembly, Victor An
dres Balaunde of Peru, did not
vote.
Sir Leslie Munro of New
Zealand, special U. N. repre-
sentative on Hungary, an.
nounced he was submitting his
report Immediately to Secre-
tary General Dag Hammar-
skiold. The report was eX-
pected to form the main basis
for the forthcoming debate.
The Steering Committee de-
cided to take the issue directly
to the Assembly without the
usual discussion in the politi-
cal committee.
Ambassador Henry Cabot
Lodge, in urging U. N. debate,
declared that the lend of the
reign of terror is not yet in
sight" in Hungary.
Mr.. Lodge said there is evil

the Assembly met last year
ana tnere are QlSCurDlng ru-
mors that more executions are

Hungarian Delegate Peter
Janos Immediately objected to
any U. N. debate on Hungary.
He contended the U. N. has
no authority to act on domes-
tic matters. He said the re-
ports of new executions were
part of a "falsifying propa-
ganda" campaign.
But even if the reports we're
true, he said, the Assembly
would have no right to inter-
fere in Hungarian affairs.

ATcHISON'S
ANGLE
By LEWIS r. ATcHlsoN

Redskins ana Eddie LeBaron.
First, let me state two
facts" Mr.. Reed begins. "(l)
That the Redskins repeatedly
say that they are satisfied with
Ed LeBaron's quarterbacking;
C2). that it is the general
opinion Of coaches in the NIL
that you have to get your
bread-and-butter players on
the first three rounds of the
college draft.
Thus. in the past seven or
eight years the Redskins have
used their No. / draft choice
on quarterbacks five times
Jack Scarbath, Ralph Guglie-
lmi,, Rudy Bukich, Don Allard
and Richie Lucas. Now my
question is, If they are satisfied
with LeBaron, why do they
continually waste their No. /
choice on quarterbacks?
Now let's look at it the
other way" Mr.. Reed con-
tinues. Say the Redskins
really are not satisfied with
LeBaron. This reasoning I
have to go along with, because
I have a TV set and have
pretty good vision. And ] do
not have much trouble dis
tinguishing LeBaron from fell
lows like Unitas, Layne, Van
Brocklin. etc.
Thus, my second question
is: When they draft q man like
Lucas, why not give him the
green light? No! Lo and be-
hold, I read where Mike Nixon
& Co. want to use him on de-
fense. (Shades of Guglielmi,
who sat on the bench until he
got too stale to play.)
"It doesn't take a football
genius to know that the Red
skins have been a losing team
with LeBaron, so the worst
they could be is a losing team
without him.
"In closing, may I remind
you that the Colts had a good
quarterback in George Shaw,
but look what happened when
they gave Unitas a chance.
Sincerely, Thomas E. Reed. I"
- y
Well, now that LeBaron has
passed the California bar exam,
maybe Eddie won't be clutter
ing UP Mr.. Reeds TV screen
next year. But there are lots
Of fans who want to see q
change. and who agree that if
the Redskins sign Lucas they
should give him-or Eagle
Day. or Guglielmi--a chance to
prove himself.

A writer. who signs himself
Bob p" nominates Vince
Lombardi for coach of the
year" in the National Football
League. and this department
seconds the motion.
AS Mr.. P. points out, Lom-
bardi took a team that finished
with a l-10-l record last year
and piloted it to a third-place
tie IN the Western Division with
seven wins against five defeats.
THE Redskins should have a
season in which they win five
more games than they did the
year before" wrote Mr.. p. who
penned his note before the
Packers defeated San Francisco
in their last game. The writer
had conceded that one to the
Forty-Niners.
Which raises the point, that
lombard twice whipped the
team coached by Red Hickey,
his only serious rival for the
honor.
If Lombardi did nothing else,
he brought out the best in Paul
Hornung. the leagues leading

Also in Lombardi's favor is
the sudden improvement of
Quarterback Bart Starr, who,

cracked but never really caught
fire. Not until he guided Green
Bay to victory over the Red
skins had Starr ever won a pro

Since then Starr has been a

SIMILAR TO BIG TEN CASE
VonReenon Can't Get
Eligibility Extension
BY MERRELL WHITTLESEY
Star Stan Writer

Maryland has no chance Of
gaining an extra year of eligi-
bility for Don VanReenan, its
f1ashy halfback, who suffered
a back injury on the fourth play
Of the opening game this sea-
son. VanReenan was out for
the year.
The matter came up when
Dick Thornton, brilliant quar-
terback at Northwestern, was
granted an extra year of eligi-
bility by the Big Ten after he
broke his ankle on the opening
kickoff of the Wildcats second
game with Iowa. Thornton
starred in the opening victory
over Oklahoma.
Saunders Case Mentioned
Coach Tom Nugent of Mary
land said he was hopeful that
the Atlantic Coast Conference
would follow the ruling made
by the Big Ten and grant VAN
Keenan, three more years of
varsity football.
But Nugent also said he f1g-
ured a similar case would have
been brought up by South Car
olina If there was any chance
of a precedent being made by
the ACC.
John Saunders, the Came
cocks All-Conference fullback,
was injured early in the first
quarter of the opening game
with Duke. He played a few
minutes of the last two games
of the season.
Commissioner Jim Weaver Of
the ACC said today that par
ticipation for any length Of
time counts as a full season |
of eligibility.
Previous Tries Recalled
"Some conferences grant an
extra year of eligibility to a
boy who is hurt early in the
season." Weaver said, ION what
they call hardship cases. The
Big Ten and the Big Eight
both do it. But it's never come
up for a vote in our confer
ence."
