which make their school and
their neighbors proud.
Georgiana Simmel, an eighth.
grader at st. Peters School in
Olney, won a 500 Special
Award in The Washington Post
Christmas Art Project. Her col
orful tile mosaic did not qualify
in the regular competition be-
cause it would not reproduce
well in color. But it was judged
to be so outstanding that a
Special Award was given. Geor-

ter of MIR. and Mrs. Clyde H.

Mrs. William O'Neil who has
arranged to teach after-school
and Saturday classes in Art at
st. Peters. There were 13 en-.
tries from this School among
the 300 or more in the whole
Washington area. Two prize
winners among them means an
exceptionally high percentage.
Sandy Spring Friends School
gave Christmas Concert at the
Meeting House on Saturday
evening and Sunday afternoon,
which was very beautiful. The
program consisted of traditional
and popular carols and not-so-
well known choral music sung
by the full chorus under their
musical director, Mr.. Moley.

Dropping Of Four Veterans Proves
McPeok's Confidence in Redskins

There is little doubt that
most Of the players waived
will be picked up by other
clubs, either in the National
or American Leagues. Even as
late as a half hour before yes
terday's 4 pm. deadline, Nc
Peak had hopes Of trading at
least two, Horner and LaSSe,
for future draft choices. But
other NIL teams were in the
same predicament Of being
obliged to give up players not
quite ready for the campaign
who might be helpful in an
other month or two.
The Redskins have their eye
on one of these. End Dick Dor
sey, a willowy former trackman
from Southern Cal and Okla
homa, who was released by the
Rams.
Ruby's departure poses the
immediate problem of finding
someone to punt against the
Packers Saturday night at Co.
Evening star., 1962-09-05

With any luck the Redskins
might mount an offense that
will put them within field-goal
range If they have to kick
against the Packers. Bobby
Khayat showed he can do it
with three placements against
the Bears, which was a factor
in Aveni's release.
With two more players to be
cut by next week, chief interest
now centers on the battle be-
tween Don BosSeler and rookie
Ron Hatcher at fullback. Jim
Cunningham seems to be set,
but the Packer game might be
decisive for one Of the others.
There also seems to be q
battle among Charlie Moore,
Togo Silvani and Hugh Smith
in the line. Moore and Silvani
are tackles and If one can go
both ways and become a swing
man he'll have the edge. Smith
is a defensive end who, in time,
might make a good defensive
back. Rookie Allen Miller's
work as a third offensive guard
and linebacker has given him
new life in the coaches eyes.

Bill McPeak has said all
along that the Redskins are
better than last years team and
today he offered another bit
of evidence by including four
veterans among the six play
ers waived to get down to the
current NIL 38-player limit.
The 1928 Squeaker over the
Bears Saturday night helped
prove the coach's point. But
dropping four experienced but
not elderly players was even
stronger proof Of McPeak's con-
fidence in this 1862 squad.
Defensive Halfbacks Sam
Horner and Joe Krakoski,
Johnny Aveni, end and place
kicker, and Linebacker Dick
Lasse were the veterans re-
leased. With them went Center
Bob Hacker of Maryland and
Bill Ruby. a punter from Wake
Forest.

LaSse, who acknowledged
that he didn't like the middle
linebacker spot, had to go to
make way for Bob Pellegrini
from the Rams. who does. The

day, with Los Angeles getting

hibition game. The youngster
from Wake Forest posted a
40.4 yard average for four
games and only four kicks were
returned for a total Of IA yards.
However, the Redskins couldn't
afford to keep Ruby only for
punting and he wasn't quite
fast enough as an offensive
end.
Two More to Go
Doug Elmore, a former Mis-
sissippi quarterback who is
shaping up as an excellent util-
ity man. may get the job
against the Packers. Or it could
be Defensive Halfback Dale
Hackbart or Halfback Billy
Barnes. Hackbart, although in
consistent, was a punter at
Wisconsin, and Barnes included
it in his repertoire at Wake
Forest.
McPeak will cross that
bridge when he comes to it.
