former Wake Forest star helped
set up a two-yard touchdown
plunge by Peaks four seconds |
after the start Of the second

A 4l-yard scoring run by
Bosseler featured the Redskins

quarter.

Then the Eagles got their two
quickies and 1t looked like
Washington was through for
the day.
The Redskins missed q pos
sible score on the second play
of the game when Podoley
dropped Ed Sutton's lone throw
of the day on the Eagles AZ.
There was daylight ahead and
if the former Central Michigan
flyer hadn't made it he at least
would have been close. End Ken
MacAfee, picked up from the
Eagles a week ago, also missed
one right in the bread-basket
that probably would have saved
the Redskins one Of those two
disastrous touchdowns Just be-
fore the half.
Even ky-fingered Bill
Anderson missed one early in
the game. But the TenneSseean
caught two others. The second
was good for 40 yards to Phila-
delphia's courtyard line, setting
up the dramatic but futile
finish.
Ralph Felton's interception
Of a Van Brocklin pass on the
Eagles AZ started the Red
skins off on their second touch
down march. LeBaron's 14-yard
pass to Podoley and Vineyard
toss to James moved the ball
to the 10, and Bosseler, James
and Haley nudged it to the
1-yard stripe before Bosseler
went over.
A couple of minutes later Bob
Toneff gave his teammates
another scoring chance by

the Redskins Sam Baker
matched field goals, and Jim
Podoley and Mcdonald tossed
in diving catches of touchdown
passes.
LeBaron's biggest contribu-
ton, perhaps, was a weeks sup
ply Of fuel for the grandstand
quarterbacks' sessions. The
question was raised immedi-
ately whether Eddie was right
in giving the ball three straight
times to the leg-weary Bosseler
against q nine-man line loaded
with muscle and bristling with
determination. And at least one
source questioned the pass he
threw with only IS seconds to
play in the first half. It was in
tercepted by Chuck Weber, set
ting up what proved to be Phil
adelphia's winning touchdown.
Defensive Lapse Costly
1t was only 1879 at the time,
and the Eagles weren't over
towering anybody, when the
Redskins suffered a defensive
lapse that let the Philadel-
phians out of a hole with less
than two minutes before the
intermission. AS usual, 1t was
a third-down situation, with
nine to go, when Van Brocklin,
after appearing to be trapped
behind the line, rified a 13-
yard shot to Clarence Peaks
on the Washington 47-yard
line.
Peaks picked up IA more on
a draw play, and II on another
pass from Van Brocklin before
the latter pitched a 22-yard
six-pointer to Bobby Walston.
That was bad enough, but
when LeBaron uncorked the
throw that Weber gathered in,
the Redskins goose was cooked.
The chunky linebacker ran
eight yards before lateralling
to the speedier Jim Carr, who
added 26 more before being
bounced out Of bounds on
Washington's three-yard line,
BY getting out of bounds Carr
stopped the clock, and six Sec
onds before the half ended Van
Brocklin lobbed the ball to
Mcdonald, who grabbed it with

The lonely end is used pri-
marily to open up the defense.
1t is an ingenious device for
meeting the concentrated de-
lenses of recent years. OF
course, the end has less trou-
BILE freeing himself on passes
than If he were on the sorim-
mage line. And perhaps there
is a psychological weapon here,
too. But the big reason for the
stratagem is to open up the

Colleges and the Loyalty Oath

of the Armed Services Com
mittee, said:
I'VE are getting into a
queer state Of affairs in this
country when we cannot
mention communism in con-
nection with our colleges. I
yield to no man in my respect
for those who devote their
lives to the administration
of our great educational in
stitutionS. But in most in
stances they are far removed
from the harsh realities of
life. I shall not abandon my
responsibility to undertake to
protect the Treasury of the
United States from Com
munist inflltrators merely
because I am told that it is
an insult to thousands of
young men in this country
who seek financial help from
the Government to go to
college, to ask them to say
that they are not Com
munists, or to ask them to
take an oath to support and
defend the Constitution of
the United States"
Senator Johnston, Demo-
crat Of South Carolina, said:
"In the Subcommittee on
Internal Security, we have
found a pattern. The Com
munistS use the students
within the college to further
their purpose. -.
IF we let one such person
into a college he will be
protected to a certain extent
because the student body will
say that he is attending the
college because of payments
he is receiving from the Gov
ernment Of the United States,
and that tends to turn suspi-
cion away from that indivi-
dual. That is one reason I
want to throw all the protec-
tions possible around those
whom we assist as students in
the colleges Of the United
States"
To the argument that
Communists lie anyhow and
hence the oath is superfluous
or Intellectual, many Senators
have. replied by referring to
the case Of Alger Hiss. Be-
cause of technicalities, he
couldn't be prosecuted for
Communist associations under
then existing laws, but was
jailed for perjury because
he lied under oath to a con-
gressional committee.

1t is neither precise word
usage, nor is it fair, to say
the Democratic party has a
tumble of candidates. They
have, however, made them
selves vulnerable to the idea
by their contributions of
massive irrelevancies. In
addition, the kissing and
honking of their foes and
friends have given the cam
paign soundtrack a goose
flock sound.
If this were not true it
would be impossible for Sem
ator Stuart Symington of
Missouri to be the candidate
most favored by the profess
sionals to win the nomination
as a compromise candidate.
There is a public duty to
discuss politics thoroughly
between now and January,
when the campaigning will
begin in earnest. If, next
summer, for example, Sena-
tar Symington were sprung
suddenly on the people, like
a jack-in-the-box out of
those Smoke-filled rooms
where compromise nominees
are created, the voter would
be unprepared to evaluate
him.
Senator Symington is, with
reason, regarded by the party
pros as the ideal compro-
mise. A compromise becomes
necessary when nomination
possibilities for other men
have become exhausted.
They become so because
the others have taken some
position, or are known to
stand for some measure or
cause which has earned them
opposition. They have a pub
lie image which attracts and
repels. Senator Symington
has no such liability. A large,
handsome man, he has stood
firmly for national defense.
Lately, however, he has
declared boldly for the
small farmer. He privately is
regarded by the pros as a
dud. But they seek first a
winner and, second, ability
and position.
Senator Symington is a
man Of negative postures and
deeds. He is a Senator who
has chosen to play it safe.
This places the stamp of

That is, Gov. Rockefeller
is afraid Of negotiations un-
less they are based on q ris-
ing rather than q falling
American power in this
world. And it is obvious he
feels American leadership
today is not a very challeng-
ing one-specifically that 1t
is not offering too much Of
freshness and vigor either in
world or domestic policy.
Mr.. Rockefeller certainly
would like-and in due time
probably will try to provoke
"a high debate with Mr..
Nixon over cold war policy.
He is, however, a man with a
marked sense of responsible
ity underlying that famous
grin-the detached observer
comedies him this. He has
no wish to shoot from the
hip in such an area.
And Gov. Rockefeller's peo-
pie feel, with some justif1ca-

far not offered much oppor-
tunity for a stand-up-and-
