The coal-miner's son from
Elmira, N. Y, and the Presi-
dent passed pleasantries for
about As seconds-at the in
Sistence of the Chief Execu-
tive.
Davis, who became the only
Negro in 27 years to win the
coveted award, now finds him
self the pawn in a giant tug
of-War between National and
American Leagues on one hand
and the Government and
George Marshall's Redskins on
the other.
Davis was the first pick of
the Redskins after Owner
Marshall, whose teams have
been picketed by racial groups,
was given a stiff warning by
Secretary of the Interior Udall.
Marshall was told he must hire
a Negro player to prove him
self not guilty of discrimin-
atory practices.
The Redskins are the only
NFL team which never has
had a Negro player. Govern
ment pressures were brought
because the Redskins this
season started using a new
stadium in Washington which
is under control of the Interior
Department.
The Syracuse back also was
drafted by the Buffalo Bills
of the young American League.
He says he has been contacted
also by several Canadian teams,
with Calgary making a par
ticularly good offer.
On top of this, Harry Wismer,
owner of the New York Titans,
insists that he will make every
effort to get the rights to Davis
from Buffalo and will pay Ernie
100000 for three years. plus a
$25, 1000 bonus.

Switching linemen didn't
bring the Redskins a victory
over the Cardinals last SUM-
day but it perked up the run
ming game so much that Coacl.
Bill McPeak has decided to
make a change in the back
field. The changes may be a
preview of things to come in
go.
Jim Steffen, rugged half
back recently obtained from
the Detroit Lions, will get a
chance to run the ball against
the Steelers here Sunday. Sam
Horner, who has had 81
chances in II games and is
the teams leading ground
gamer with 268 yards, has
been moved to defense.
Steffen couldn't crack the
Lions offensive backfield ear
lier this year, but his drive and
speed on defense convinced
McPeak that he rated a chance
with the Redskins. He's had
bruised ribs since his first game
here as a result of his tackling,
but it didn't slow him down.
The 6-foot, 187-pounder from
UCLA will alternate with Dick
James against Pittsburgh,
while Tom Osborne and jim!
Wulff will divide the flanker
chores.
Horner was used chiefly On
defense last year, but played
so many positions he never did
have a chance to establish him
self. He carried the ball only
% times on offense, but gained
80 yards for a 3.6 average
McPeak expects to use him as
an alternate with Ben Scott
at the left wing.
Meanwhile, the players, whose
letter to Commissioner Pete

had not been paid for exhibition

may be roasted in its own
