a chance to tie for the title
and force a division playoff.
Detroit won yesterday because
Quarterback Morrall correctly
guessed the Colt strategy with
seven seconds remaining.
II told Gibbons If he went
down the middle. he'd probably
be OPEN" Morrall said after the
game. I'VE had no timeouts
left. The Colts knew it. so
Knew the middle would be
OPEN"
AS Morrall suspected, Balti-
more's five defensive halfbacks
dropped off to protect against
sideline pass that would stop
the clock.
[ Coach Weeb Ewbank of the
Colts said he was glad Morrall
threw the ball where he did,
because he figured Gibbons
would get tackled and time
would run out"
But Gibbons, who is not
rated a speedster, wasn't even
touched by Colt defenders.
1T looked like the ball was
thrown near (Bob) Boyd and
ANDY Nelson. but what / can't
understand is why the other
backs didn't start converging
when the ball was still in the
air." Ewbank said.
SOmmer Mentioned
Ewbank sought to dismiss
conversation of the game and
started talking about winning
the last two in order to retain
a chance for the Western title
He was concerned mostly
about injuries.
He spoke about finding a re-
placement at this late stage for
Fullback Alan Ameche. who in
jured the Achilles tendon in his
right leg and will play no more
this season. Ameche underwent
an operation at Union Memorial
Hospital. The surgery was des-
cribed as successful.
! Ewbank also expressed hope
that RAYMOND Berry. the all
pro end. will regain full physi-
cal ability. Although Berry
caught 10 passes yesterday. he
was operating on bad leg.
Halfback Alex Hawkins also
had to be removed for a time
and Linebacker Dick Szymanski
was banged up.
Billy Pricer. who has started
at fullback this season. replaced
Ameche yesterday.
There is some speculation
that Mike Sommer, a starting
halfback with Baltimore the
last half of the 1859 season,
would be added to the roster.
Sommer, a former George
Washington University star who
also played with the Redskins,
joined the Colts a year ago as
their regular left halfback.
Later he was sent to the Dallas
Texans. but returned to the
Colts because of a leg injury.
The Colts put him on waivers
but he was not claimed by any
other team.

play its home games during the
coming season in Wrigley Field

rather than at the Coliseum

terday in Cleveland, ending
Plum's string Of passes without
an interception at 1876.
1t came too late to save his
Washington teammates from
their sixth straight defeat, 27-
16, but it surprised Plum and
gave 1921 fans a conversa-
tional piece for their post
game chatter.
The result moved the Browns
into second place, a half-game
ahead of the New York Giants,
and assured the Redskins OF
their first undisputed last-place
finish since 1850, when they
brought up the rear with a

dubious distinction with the

had 4-8 marks.

Watch me today. I'm going
to end Plum's record. Just

He meant it, and he almost

Little Interest Seen
In Lonq-Term Issue

Banks and their customers
in this area have shown little
interest in the Treasury's offer
ing of 414 per cent 25-year
bonds, which are callable in Is
years.
This was learned after the
deadline for mailing of sub
scriptions at midnight last
night.
In announcing the long
term offering Treasury officials
said last week they would be
happy if subscriptions for the
bonds totaled $500 million and
they would take subscriptions
up to SIS billion. The long
term bonds offered in as part
of current cash financing were
described as an exploratory
move to find what is out
there"
1t was predicted the bonds
would be more attractive for
pension funds and State funds.
However, one banker said he
suspected trust departments
and some bank customers may
be sorry they didn't buy some
of the 4l4s. especially if in

The current year, starting the

Lewis Gruber said yesterday.

While indications are that
March sales topped those of

Gruber said, they are expected
to be slightly below March 1859,
an abnormally large sales
month due to a series of in
tenSlve promotions.
