Unitas Heroics
Give Baltimore
Tie for Lead

Johnny Unitas, the artful
paSser who is taking his place
alongside the likes of Sam
Baugh Otto Graham and Sic
Luckman, as one of pro foot
balls greatest quarterbacks
stands alone when it comes tc
heroics of the cliff hanging
variety.
Unitas' last-minute aerial
sorties have been solely respon-
sible for the 81 record COM
piled by the Baltimore Colts
in defense of their National
Football League championship
The 26-year-old signal-caller
has fired 10 touchdown passes
in the four games-extending
to 20 the number of consecutive
games in which he has tossed
at least one I'D strickland
has accounted for so of the
Colts "a points.
Seven of Unitas' 10 scoring
passes have come in the final
quarter as the Colts struggled
from behind.
Colts Tie for Lead
The script was the same
yesterday as Baltimore knock
ed of one of its top rivals
for the Western Division title.
The Colts defeated the Chica-
go Bears, 21-7, with Unitas
connecting for two touchdown
passes in the last period.
The victory moved the Colts
into a tie for first place in the
West with San Francisco and
Green Bay. The Forty-Niners
clobbered winless Detroit, 34-
13. and the Packers, unde-
feated in their first three
games were pounded, 45-6, by
Los Angeles.
In the Eastern Division the
defending champion New York
Giants took sole possession of
the top spot with a 81 mark.
They knocked off Philadelphia,
PAT, while Pittsburgh was
dumping d Washington, 27-6.
Cleveland moved into a four
way tie for second by whipping
the Chicago Cardinals, 17-7.
Colts Avenge Defeat
Avenging their sole defeat,
the Colts pulled ahead of the
Bears, now 1-3 for the season,
when Unitas shot a 25-yarder
to Lennie Moore. His one-yard
flip to L. G. Dupre closed out
the scoring. The Bears had
tied it early in the third period
on Willie Galimore'S 30-yard
scamper after Alan Ameche had
had accounted for the first
Colt touchdown on an 11-yard
burst in the first period.
A capacity crowd of 48,430
in Wrigley Field saw Unitas
complete 16 of 80 passes for
233 yards while the Colts were
intercepting five Chicago tosses.
The surprising Forty Miners,
riding the air arm of veteran

Lions offense with a defensive

The Redskins fumbled away

the Pittsburgh Steelers, 27-6,
before a grim-faced crowd of

while they were about it, they

threat of antitrust legislation"
DeOrsey added, in regard to
the amendments that he ad-
vised in the Minneapolis offer,
IF a city is anxious enough to
acquire a major league club.
the amendments I suggested
would be considered minor"
AffrOnt to Fans
Griffith's apparent continuing
efforts to acquire approval of
clubowners is regarded by many
as an astounding affront to
Washington fans, whom Griffith
still must please if he remains
here. His canvass of other
owners seems to declare to
Senators fans, "I'll remain with
you only if forced to do So"
Baltimore, Cleveland, New
York and Detroit repeatedly are
aligned against a move by
Griffith. Three negative votes
can stop him, unless the
Senators president decides to
defy the league rules.
The sixth point of DeOrsey's
list Of recommendations de-
clareS the other American
League owners should subsidize
the Washington club to the ex-
tent of the difference between
the actual results here during
the next five years and the
Minneapolis offer, provided
other owners veto the move.
DeOrsey estimates an attend
ance Of 100000 in Minneapolis
would net the club a yearly net
profit of $430,000. Minneapolis
has guaranteed that attendance
for five years.
Complicated Advice
But DeOrsey's advice also
called for Calvin to canvass
other owners and if he fails
to get approval to desist from
making formal application and
remain in Washington. And
there's the recommendation,
too, that If the Griffith family
decides to remain in baseball
that 1t accept the Minneapolis
offer with amendments.
Stacking up against a move,
in addition to the Murphy suit
and opposition of other owners,
is the cost of moving. The
American Association wants
$450,000 if Griffith invades the
Minneapolis-St. Paul territory.
One Minneapolis source said
that if Griffith doesn't accept
the present offer from that
city that he'll never receive
a mother from Minneapolis.
Twice previously that city has
attempted to land the Senators
and failed.
The Minneapolis offer calls
for expansion of a stadium now
seating $4,000, a rental of 7
per cent Of the gate receipts,
turning g concessions entirely
over to the club, with the city
receiving 10 per cent during the
baseball season and so per cent
from other events, and baseball
radio and televiSion rights.
The city would retain the park
ing concession but permit the
club to limit the parking
charges.

that is unlikely.
The situation is not likely to

still is contracting other owners
and no board of directors meet

Amendments to the Mime
apolis proposition, suggested by
Leo DeOrsey, Grifhth's flnan-
cial adviser, are understood to
be of a minor clarifying nature
and would present no barrier to
a move. More important as a
deterring force, in the opinion
of some, is the suit filed by
Murphy to prevent Griffith
from disposing of Griffith Sta
dium and ball parks at Chat

Murphy Scorns Analysis
Murphy's reaction to DeOr-

Senator'S situation was blunt.

HEADLINE PERSONALITY
Charles Phillips Out
To Top UGF Quote

When Charles E. Phillips,
chairman Of the United Givers
Fund campaign, takes on a job.
he throws his full energies
into it-whether it's selling life
insurance or raising over 81
million for lac Washington
charities.
For example, the president
Of the Equitable Life Insurance
Co. has spent Is years plan
ming his firms new Offices at
$500 Wisconsin avenue NV,
opposite the Sidwell Friends
School.
Even now, he likes to show
a visitor plans for adding two
new wings to the old Colonial
style building, modelled after
the Governors Palace in Will
liamsburg, Va.
He is also proud Of the
sunken gardens in the back.
Every plant in 1t is contem-
porary to williamsburg" he
says. That's why it has no
flowers, only green shrubs"
Full Time on Fund
Right now, however, Mr..
Phillips main concern is the
United Givers Fund, which has
been occupying his full time
since last April.
I'D like not only to reach
our goal of $7.133,O00." he says,
but go on to collect SIS mil
lion. That's what our COM
mittee told us the agencies
must have as a minimum.
And there's no reason why
some day we can't raise as
much as $8.5 million. Other
cities our size are doing better
than that"
Mr.. Phillips. a native of Sill
yer Spring, who was educated
in local schools, could pass for
much younger than his 81
years.
He went to work for the
Equitable Life in 1922 as an
accounting clerk to work his
way through George Washing
ton Law School.
He succeeded in earning his
bachelor and masters degrees
but liked the company's preSi-
dent, Allen C. Clark, so much,
he agreed to give up his dream

His wife Laura, who joined

Quick To Praise
Mr.. Phillips has earned the
respect and admiration of the
people under him because he
Is quick to give them much of
the credit for any success.
When a reporter approached
him for a story on his job as
UGF fund chairman, he sug-
gested instead, a story on one
of the volunteer workers solicit
ing contributions, door to door.
l They really do a marvellous
job, you know" he said, land
what they do is much more
important than me-"
The United Givers Fund has
taken up a great deal of his
time-"there are some days
when I hardly do anything for
Equitable Insurance but he's
not sorry.
I've met people this way
that I might not have come
in contact with otherwise"
He points out that Robert
E. L. johnson Of Woodward &,
Lothrop and Randolph Bishop
OF the Red Cross are neighbors
OF his, living three blocks away.
But we never really met be-
fore this campaign"
Hobby Neglected
Sailing on the Chesapeake
Bay is Mr.. Phillips favorite
recreation, but one he hasn't
had much time for lately.
I'VE always had a boat up
to about seven years ago." he
says. There's nothing so re-
laxing as sailing. Maybe in a

to it."

Cabinet Fall
Seen in Israel

JERUSALEM. June 80 (AP) .
A bitter dispute over a sale
Of Israeli arms TO West Ger
many was expected to bring
the fall Of the government Of
Premier David n-Gurion to-
night.
This was our last cabinet
meeting" Mr.. Ben -Gurlon COM
mented after a special two-hour
meeting Of his cabinet this
morning. The cabinet was un-
able to manage a solution Of
the crisis.
At first, Mr.. Ben -Gurion re-
fused to sit with two ministers
from the Achduth Avodah
Party. He left them sitting
outside his office. But later he
was persuaded to admit them
TO the meeting.
Left-wing cabinet members
from the Achduth Avodah and
Mapam Parties have assailed
the arms sale and have given
no indication of backing down.
There were reports that Mr..
Ben-Gurion, who has been the
spearhead Of the Jewish state
since its founding In l948, has
already drafted his letter OF
resignation to President Izhak
Ben-Zvi.
But even II he resigns, he is
expected to remain in power.
He may form a new caretaker
