Rutgers University, where
American football was in
vented almost a century ago,
had an undefeated season.
1t then closed up the football
shop until next fall. Some
of the conclusions and COM
ments interest those who be-
lieve that an increasing num-
ber of university and tech
nical schools must make a
choice between football fac
tory methods and scholarship
which permits student par
ticipation in competitive play.
In the first place, there are
no athletic scholarships at
Rutgers. There are, however,
holders of scholarships who
play football. None is getting
a free ride tuition, board,
room. cat all the schools
where full football grants
in-aid are made. there also
is a provision for SIS per
month for incidentals.)
Rutgers students (players
included carry heavy aca-
demic schedules. Because of
the scholarship load, Rutgers
players are not able to begin
practice until the afternoon
laboratory and classroom ses-
sions are concluded. Work.
outs begin at 5 pm. This
means that about an hour
and-a-half per day is devoted
to football.

that's another story, Residents of
Lewes Beach claim it is the re-
sponsibility of the Army Corps of
Engineers. which built the Roose-
welt Inlet at the north end of the
beach front in 1897. Local people
believe the inlet structure has di-
verted the current of water over
the years, resulting in a steady
erosion of Lewes Beach. They fear
for the safety of the scores of cot

since last fall, as possible pro-
lection.
There used to be about 80 or 40
feet at the end of the bulkhead to
create safe bathing area. observers
say this should now be dredged to
restore the beach from about 500
feet off shore. They claim that "a
bout 80 feet of the beach at the end
of the bulkhead has washed away
this winter.
Some 10 or Is feet of the park

A playground set up by the
Lewes Lions Club, just north of the
pavilion, is about washed away.
This was originally about so feet
from the high water mark.
The parking lot was established
in 1852 as a summer playground.
A protective dune was leveled to
enlarge the lot Mayor Otis H.

WzM LOSE OR DRAW
Sing a Song of Sonny Jurgensen
BY FRANCIS STANN

ONE OF THE BIG WIRE service all
National Football League selections-two
offensive teams, two defensive-has come
out and guess who is the No. l quarterback?
Sonny Jurgensen, no less, the Philadelphia
Eagle whom some feared had forgotten how
to play.
For five pro seasons the ex-Duke star
had languished on the Eagles bench, always
understanding somebody. Notably it had
been Norm Van Brockln, who did Jurgen-
sen favor year ago by retiring in order
to coach the new Minnesota Vikings.
You find a guy like Van Brocklin in
front of you and there isn't much young
fellow can do Sonny threw A passes in
all of $780, A man can get awfully rusty,
doing no more than that.
And so, because the Eagles were start
out in 81 with new coach, Nick Skorich,
and this young-old quarterback, very few
experts picked them to repeat their title
winning performance. The truth to tell,
they didn't. But the Eagles came awfully
close-it was uch-and-go in the Eastern
Division with the Giants-and only lack of
a ground game killed them.
Skorich did beautifully and Jurgensen
was even ulOTc OAOuAAO 6oAAAO
or no, the Eagles still won the total offenSe
title. They gained 5112 yards and Jurgen-
sen passed for 3,723 yards.
MILT PLUM OF THE Cleveland Browns
beat out Sonny as the No. l thrower under
the NILS oft-attacked formal for rating
passers. But Jurgensen pitched 416 times
to Plum's 3O2 completed 235 to 1T, gained
3,723 yards to 2,416, made 80 touchdown
pitches to 49,
The wire service which polled AZ NFL
writer's didn't even have Plum on the second
offensive team. That runner-up was Y. A.
little of the New York Giants. Plum was
out of the money and so were Johnny Unitas
of the Colts, the 80 winner, plus such as
Bart Starr of the winning Green Bay Pack
ers, and Bobby Layne, although old Tomato
Face had been plagued by injuries.
But to have Jurgensen picked No. /
and little No. 2-is to gladden. the heart.
We were in Chicago for the All-Star Game
last August. The Eagles were playing the
cream of the college crop Skorich, sue
ceeding the retired Buck Shaw as coach, was
on spot as was his heir apparent to Van
Brocklin.
81 keep telling myself that Jurgensen
can play" Nick said on the eve of the game,
although I know that few years on a
bench can ruin guy. But just in case
Sonny has forgotten how we've got King
