It's almost ridiculous to sug-
geSt that the Redskins may have
to worry about complacency in
their home debut against the
Giants Sunday, but it's some
thing Coach Bill McPeak il
thinking about.
McPeak doesn't want the
athletes to think the season
ended with that 14-7 loss tc
the Eagles. and that their fine
performance entities them to ar
off-day. But the Redskins have
blown hot and cold too many
times in the past for a coach's
peace of mind.
The Giants are tough de-
fensively," McPeak said, sizing
up Sundays task. "Offensivel!
they were better in the exhibi.
tions than in their first two
league games, and there's nc
reason to believe they can't gel
hot against us.
II don't know why our bunch
should take them lightly aftel
losing two games, but if they
do well, I hate to think of
what could happen"
Drill at Griffith Stadium
The Redskins returned to
their familiar haunts of Grit
fifth Stadium today and prob
ably will practice there the rest
of the season. Georgetown was
too crowded with students back
in school, and the old ball park
provides the privacy the coach
es want while tinkering with
their strategy.
One major problem-kicking
appears to be beyond their
scope at the moment. Even
with Sam Horner in Al shape
the punting isn't the best. Sam
was signed to run the ball, not
kick it, and has handled the
added chore fairly well. With
him out of there, and Dick
James Subbing for him, it's no
improvement.
You can't knock a guy like
James, who did everything but
sell soft drinks in Philadelphia
and did it well. But, like Horn
er. James isn't a kicker. The
Redskins need somebody like

Answer

Answer
No. l. Off tackle slant. The
opening should be there with
the ends floating out. The line
hackers should stop the fullback
through the middle, floating
ends are hard to circle with an
end run, and the reverse should
succeed only if run inside. The
slant hits quicker.

Dodds Loteness
Soved2U.N.Men
BY ISABELLE SHELTON
Star Staff Writer

Two United Nations officials
beaten up last month by Ka-
tangan soldiers may well owe
their lives to the fact that
United States Senator
Thomas Dodd and his wife
were 20 minutes late arriy-
ing at the party from which
the men were dragged.
Mrs. Dodd, a diminutive,
gray-haired mother of six,
told about that frantic night
In the Congo's war-wracked
Elisabethville in an interview
yesterday.
Katangan soldiers were
Just about to drive off with
the beaten and battered U. N.
officials when the Dodd car
arrived, late, at the private
home where a dinner was to
be given honoring the Con-
necticut Democrat.
I'VE had had a lovely day."
Mrs, Dodd recalled. "Tlfere
had been a reception for us
earlier at the home of Ameri-
can Consul Lewis Hoffacker.
Met Tshombe
II met Katangan President
Tshombe - whom I thought
very impressive-and I re-
member being struck by how
well everyone got along to-
gether, Katangans, Belgians,
U. N. representatives and peo-
pie from our country"
It was only because the
Dodds stopped off at their
own quarters between the re-
ception and the dinner to
"freshen up" that they were
late for the dinner, thus ar
irving when they were most
needed.
1--WE saw a crowd gath
cred. We thought there had
been an accident. Then we
saw Ivan Smith, head of the
U. N. in Katanga, with blood
streaming down his face. We
had just met him the day be-
fore in Leopoldville, and just
left him a while earlier at
the Consul's reception. We
could scarcely believe it."
Cry for Help
A moment later she spotted
Brian Urquhart, another U. N.
official; "in the midst of a
group of Katangan soldiers
who were pushing and pull
ing him. His face was covered
with blood. He was crying,
Help me, someone help mel"
Like everyone else con-
nected with the ugly incident,
Mrs. Dedd was full of praise
for Consul Hoffacker's quick
and daciSiVe action IN ho-
half of the two men.
1T was the bravest thing

which he had just arrived
