Schenkel, who seemed to be
coming down with a cold and
had a thermometer in his mouth,
couldn't reply.
How'll said he wouldn't enter
into any speculating concern
ing his successor, but that the
office had a stack Of letters
and any number Of telephone
calls from men who'd like to
get the job. Allie Sherman, the
Giants offense coach, is re-
ported to have the inside track.
Vince lombard, who left the
New York st al to become head
coach and general manager Of
the Green Bay Packers, also
has been mentioned in con-
nection with it. But II the
Packers win the Western Divi-
sion title it's doubtful Lom-
bardi would leave even If the
New York position were offered
him.
Although only l4.077 fans
showed up for the game, a.
695 tickets were sold. Thirty
four tickets were sold at the
boxofhce even though many
fans arrived with spares"
from friends who refused to
risk pneumonia in the snow.
The Redskin who felt worst
Of all in the dressing room was
Gary Click, a defensive back,
whose tumble of Don Chan
dler's punt set up the Giants
first touchdown. Gary was sent
in to guard against just such
things. Apparently he wasn't
told not to catch the ball, even
though Coach Mike Nixon said
II he wanted the ball caught
he would have sent in q safety
man..
Some observers wondered why
either team bothered to risk
fielding punts when the odds
were against running them
back any distance and the ball
couldn't roll in the snow.
Bill Sits 3s-yard return Of
Eagle Days kick early in the
second period was an excep-
ton. He got to Washington's
15-yard line. Nothing came Of
it when Charlie Conerlyl
fumbled twice, losing II yards,

all missed q 3l-yard field goal
try.
The Giants finished with q |
net minus one yard for rushing,
but 1t was nowhere near a
league record. Detroit finished
with a minus So yards against
the Cardinals in l943, and
Philadelphia,s ground offense
against the Bears in 1899 lost
36 yards. The Redskins had q |

The game was IS minutes

kicks paved the way for New
York's victory. And a satisfying
one it was, after the Redskins
fourth-period rally brought
them a 24-24 tie in their first
meeting this year in New York.
Strategy Backfires
Performing on an unlined
field, ankle deep in an all-day
snowfall, after starting Al
minutes late, the Giants elected
to kick of to the Redskins,
rather than receive, after win
ming the toss. Coach Jim Lee
Howell. who will retire to q
front-office position with the
Giants after next weeks game,
later explained that he thought
his men could put the Red
skins in a hole with this tactic,
then play for a scoring break.
The way the snow came down
it seemed that any kind Of
score would be sufncient to win
and that the team getting it,
naturally. would be the victor.
Howell's strategy backfired
however, when the Redskins
displayed remarkable footing in
the cold, white stuff and
slOgged 66 yards for Khayat's 8
field goal. They left the field at
the half still leading. 80. after
Pat Summerall's effort to tie
it up for the Giants was wide
from the 31-yard mark.
Red.nosed bargain hunters
in the slim but noisy and Jolly
crowd, who had taken the Red
skins and seven points, had q
warm feeling for their heroes
in their hearts as the second
half got under way. Nor did
it leave when a fourth-down
plunge by Bosseler failed to
produce q first down on the
Giants 80.
Clicks Fumble Costly
But a definite GOODNESS, not

temperature. set in when Gary
Click fumbled Chambers punt
and Bill Sits, a former Red
skin. recovered for New York
on the Washington 2-yard line.
Conerly, making his first ap-
pearance in three weeks. picked
his damp carcass out 0f a snow
bank. where John Paluck had
deposited him. and threw q 9-I
yard touchdown pass to Morri-
son. The condition of the field, |
which steadily worsened, made |
even the most optimistic Red
skin fans realize that the touch
down was a death blow tol
their favorites.

Webster. who did most of the |
ball carrying for the Giants, |
had trouble moving 1t from |
there against the stout Red
skins line. But they got it close
enough for Summerall to kick
a 16-yard field goal. |
With less than three min
utes OF playing time, Quarter
back Ralph Guglielmi, who had
failed to make connections on
four previous passes, decided to
try one more. The slippery ball |
sailed of the side Of his hand
into the cold but grateful paws

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

PILOT: While serving
AS Secretary for Air at the
end of World War I, Sir
Winston Churchill took up
flying. He was involved in
several crackups, but his
luck was phenomenal and
he escaped each time with
out mishap.
On all his flights, he was
accompanied by a flyer who
had suffered a Gripping
leg injury during the war.
The latter was nominally
the pilot of the plane, but
he actually sat by while
Churchlll n a n d ! d the
stick.
One day in 1919, while
returning from France, the
plane crashed. Churchill
climbed out, unhurt. The
pilot was slumped in his
seat, unconscious.
Churchill was overcome
with remorse. But his luck
prevailed as usual. The
pilots only injury was to
his ailing leg, which had
been twisted SO that it was
able to respond to surgery.

and the rest mostly within q
150-mile radius Of Chicago.
In q way, the business is still
in the family. Mr.. Archibald's
brother, Teller. thought 1t was
so good an idea he founded a
separate company in Chicago
the same year. only a few
months after the start here.
After he died his wife Dorothy
became owner. and In 1859 the
two companies were combined,
the Chicago firm purchasing
interests Of the local company.
Mrs. Archibald remarked and
settled in nearby Virginia, and
now drops in occasionally.
Fannie May prides itself on
the honey touch. It still hand
dips certain candies. uses small
patches to assure freshness, and
urges its employees to sample
freely every day. The purpose of
this is threefold: 1t creates a
friendly working atmosphere,
helps employees learn what's in
the so different varieties. and
whether they're fresh.
Our keystone policy is the
fresh-made idea" says Mr.. Car
penter. Unlike some other
companies we use no preserva-
tives. It's a perishable COM
modify, and we handle 1t like
eggs"
FadS In Candy
Like other food. candy has
its fads. The current one is
for miniatures. Fannie May
carries them. but candidly
points out to customers that
they're paying for extra labor
and extra packaging. The only
consolation Is that there are
fewer calories.
In It's obsession with fresh
ness. the company gently dis
courages customers when pos
sible from buying five-pound
boxes Of candy, unless they
have q good reason. 1t sug-
gests one and two Founders in
stead, since they don't remain
uneaten too long. The biggest
sales volume is in these sizes.
Nostalgia plays q major role
