NEW YORK, Dec. IL (NANA) .
DO professional football play
ers get stage fright? Or are
these brawny craftsmen, having
reached the height Of their pro-
fession, immune to temper
amental attacks of butterflies?
A survey of Giant players
unearthed an almost unani-
nous admission of some degree
of nervousness on the day of
the game. None seemed the least
heSitant to acknowledge it-a
fact that would tend to rule
out the presumption that this
emotion is one associated with
amateurism. The manifesto
tons of pre-game tension vary
from player to player.
Those who are normally re-
served are likely to become
exuberant and chatter excitedly
with anyone who will listen.
Those usually extroverted tend
to withdraw-to become solemn
and silent as game time ap-
proacheS.
On typical game day. most
players sleep later than on a
practice day. A midmorning
brunch takes the place of the
regular noontime meal, since
eating too near game time is
unwise. Most sleep we'll the
night before, but begin to tingle
almost Immediately after awak-
ening.
Punter Checks Wind
Punter Don Chandler'S first
move is to race to the window
of his apartment, which over
looks Yankee Stadium, and
check the flags displayed there.
Thus he gets an immediate in
dication of how the wind We
locity will affect his punting.
Says Halfback Alex Webster:
Sure, I'm nervous. My stom-
ach stays in knots from the
moment I open my eyes in the
morning until I first make con-
tact. Then I'm okay"
Most of the players arrive at
Yankee Stadium about 1870
or IL. Pat Summerall is usu-
ally the third one there at II
o'clock. Dick Noland is second
at 10. Cliff Livingston, the
earliest bird of all, opens shop
at $50.
1T takes me quite a while
to get myself in the proper
frame of mind" Cliff says. The
ex-UCLA ace accomplishes this
by lounging on a couch in an
anteroom with his feet propped
up, his play book resting on
his lap, his eyes partially
closed. staring at the ceiling.
A radio is tuned to a station
which constantly plays sooth-
ing music. His teammates
don't bother speaking to Cliff,
for they know he probably
won't answer.
Panic Button Pushed
AS the players arrive by twos
and threes, they take brief note
of the bulletin board which ex-
hibits an article from a national
magazine headlined: why the
Browns Will Win the Cham
pionship." The boys amble over
to their lockers, strip. and sit
around discussing the previous
days college games while wait
ing to be tapped. Failure to
have both ankles taped for a
game or scrimmage results in
a $3.50 fine.O
On the surface the atmos-
phere is quite jovial until the
l o'clock buzzer rings, a signal
for the press and anyone else
not directly connected with the
team to leave. The boys half
seriously call it the panic but
ton. A hush falls over the
locker room. The signs of ten

Two Areas
Face Fire
Tax Hikes

Residents in the Silver Spring
and Cabin John Fire Districts
will have to pay more fire taxes
next fiscal year as a result of
two bills just passed by the
County Council.
In each case, discretion to
levy up to five cents more In
the districts rests with the
County Council. What the Coun.
Gil did, in effect, was to raise
the ceilings rather than to i'm.
pose a flat rate of five more
cents.
Residents therefore may have
to pay only one cent more than
the existing 10-cent rate, but
they could be required to pay as
much as five cents more.
Requests for the rate hikes
had the blessing of the Mary.
land Fire Underwriters Associa.
ton. Silver Spring and Cabin
John were the only districts
among the county's 16 to ask
for tax hikes.
Silver Spring based its re.
quests on its already approved
issuance of SITS, 900 in bonds to
build a new fire station; expen-
diture of $4,000 for a new
ladder truck; more money for
salaries of paid firemen.
Cabin Johns requests were
centered around overall growth
OF the riverside community.
In both cases, the new tax
laws become effective this
August but the Council may not
impose levies until the 1960.61
fiscal year.

Major bugaboo between
Montgomery County snow
emergency crews and crews
working for SRC has been the
lack Of communication between
the two forces. About two
thirds Of Montgomery County's
trucks and other equipment
used for road maintenance are
radio equipped.
With the two forces In touch
with each other, one can speed

Is needed quickly. County
crews have had to turn to and
clear State roads during SHOWS
simply because the SRC was un.
aware of specific conditions.
Instances of this became
clear during the two snow
storms in the winter of 1857.
County and State crews often
were working blind while only
short distances apart.
The newly equipped State
vehicles will be linked with u
base stations, at least one in

For the first two years, the

training program, according to
military men here.
The effective counter to last
years attack was given by the
Chinese Nationalist air force.
Armed with new Sidewinder
missiles it swept the sky Of
Red planes. And even with
conventional machineguns and
cannon the Nationalist clearly
beat the Red flyers.
Training Held Key
Training made more of a
difference than equipment,
American military advisers to
Chang Kai-shek's armed forces
say. The Communists have MIG
is fighter planes. a match for
the Nationalist's F-86s, and
MIG It's, an even better plane
the NationalistS won't be able
to match until next spring.
And there is no reason why
Soviet Russia cannot produce
missiles Of the relatively simple
Sidewinder type.
To make up the difference in
skill, the Communist air force
has been carrying on an inten-
sive training program. If run

competent to judge. the pro-
gram could bring the Com
munist Air Force up to Ma
tionalist levels in a year to
lS months from the time the
program started. 1t started a
little over a year ago.
What can the Chinese Reds
do when they are ready? Pre-
sumably this is bothering the
Red leaders. They have worked
themselves onto a limb by
promising repeatedly to take
Formosa and the offshore is
lands. In this part of the world
these promises will have to be
acted on or the Communists
will lose prestige.
Success Imperative
Observers here say the Chin
ese Communists cannot back
down or change direction as
readily as the realists in the
Kremlin. But also they cannot
suffer a defeat similar to the
one last summer.
Quemoy and Matsu. the two
principal offshore islands, are
tough nuts to crack now. Al
though Chang Kai Shek has
reduced his forces there, under
an agreement with the late
Secretary of State Dulles, the
islands are the best fortified
spots east of Singapore.

Society.

the flag was captured at the

and will be used in the re-en-

are confident that shelling can
not reduce them. Nor can sup
lplies be cut of. And the Reds
probably will not be able TO
attain a decisive edge over the
Nationalist air force.
So If they try again as is ex-
pected, the battle could be
broader than the one that
brought the world to another Of
its Drinks last year.
U. S. Has Commitment
If there is naval action, bomb
er strikes on Formosa or land
ing attempts on the offshore
islands. what would this coun-
try do?
The United States is COM
mitted to defend Formosa and
the nearby Pescadores Islands,
but not the offshore islands,
nesting within sight of the
mainland. And informed
sources believe President Eisen-
hover does not have any private
agreement with Chang to de-
fend the offshore islands, as
some writer's have said.
So a fight for those islands
would be an all-Chinese show,
backed up by American sup
plies, communications and pro-
feSsional advice.
But a fight for Formosa or
the Pescadores would bring the
American Seventh Fleet. the
Marines on Okinawa, the
Army's 25th Division in Hawaii
and Air Force fighters and
bombers from the Pacific and
home to FormoSa in a few days
The world would be looking
