brush them aside. He was Joy to watch
if he was on your side.
Curiously Gene didn't like the new
four-man line Coach Joe Kuharich decided
to install. He didn't think it would work
and told Joe So But it was very effective
and the star, of course, was Brito.
ONE OF THE FEW PEOPLE Gene didn't
hit it off with was Curly Lambeau, the
sage of Green Bay who took the Redskins
coaching reinS when Dick Todd quit Curly
considered Brito too light to be a good
defensive end. Typically, Gene kept his
feelings to himself but moved to Calgary,
Canada along with Eddie LeBaron, for
one season.
Brito wasn't always a defensive end
In 1851, his first year in Washington, Gene
caught clutch pass in the last 80 seconds
OF a game with the Cardinals. He was
knocked out on the play and they had to
pry the ball from his hands. The timeout
gave the Redskins time for one more play
and Bill Dudley kicked field goal that won
the game, 20-17.
In 1885, the year the Touchdown Club
awarded him its acco1ade as the outstanding
pro OF the year, Gene touched off the record
torrent of points, 81 in minute and half
that started the Redskins on their way to a
3l-30 victory over the Eagles Gene recov-
cred tumble on the Eagles 32-yard line to
set up touchdown pass from LeBaron to
Vic JanoWicz. George Thomas recovered the
ensuing kickoff in Philadelphias end zone
for another touchdown. The third, scored
by Janowicz, followed another tumble re-
covery, this one by Torgy Torgeson.
BRITO WAS RECOGNIZED around the
league as one of the real pros He had
trouble with the big tackles. Against them
he looked like Mickey Walker fighting
heavyweights in the old days. They out
weighed him, but they couldn't outSmart
him, and it was tribute to his ability that
few running plays were aimed his way.
Gene was picked twice for the Pro Bowl
and distinguished himself in both Sig
nificantly his team, the East won both
times, 209 in 1854 and 31-3O in 1856.
A fellow could write book about Brito
ano probably still miss few things. Vice
President Nixon summed it up succinctly
and accurately in 1858 when he Saluted
Gene in ceremonies on the field before
Genes final game for the Redskins.
You have Signified the spirit that has
made the Redskins an exciting team to
watch always, whether they win or lose. y
He hasn't lost any of that spirit All he
needs is helping hand to get his health
back, and the Redskins Alumni are asking
all of us to give it to him. How about it?

When q Fellow Needs q Friend
BY LEWIS F. ATcHIsoN

THE FIRST QUESTION usually asked
When fund is raised for an athlete seems
to be; What did he do with all his dough?
The implication is that the guy coined
millions and threw it away on you know
what and how. This case is different. This
one involves Gene Brito, former Red
skin great now seriously i'll in Los Angeles.
The Redskins Alumni have opened a
Week-long drive to raise money for their
Old teammate. It's good cause, a worthy
cause. Gene was no good-time Charley.
He was sensible with his money. Instead
OF lolling around during the off-season, he

adopted children, Gene couldn't afford to
take 1t easy-not in these times And
when this trouble hit, his modest savings
went quickly for hospital and doctor bills,
extensive and expensive laboratory tests
You may know how it is.
If there is shred of hopeful news
about Genes condition, it is that he doesn't
have amyotrophic lateral Sclerosis, the
dread disease that killed Lou Gehrig.
Brito'S ailment sounds more like multiple
scleroSiS which is bad enough, but not
always fatal. DR.. Robert Woods, his physi-
clan, told neWSpapermen that Gene is suf-
terlng from IAN inflammatory process, not
contagious, involving several bundles of
nerves within the spinal cord" AS result
Genes legs are partially paralyzed and he
has slightly impaired function in the use
of his arms.
THIS is NOT A FOOTBALL injury, but
something that can happen to little old
lady doing nothing more violent than
crochet work. We don't recall ever seeing
Brito so badly injured he couldn't play
Sure, he had his share of the bruises,
because that's the way he played the game
He was toughie, but clean. Gene never
drew penalty for roughing the passer, and
he bagged Otto Graham, Norm Van Brock
lin and Bobby Layne, to mention a few of
the elusive ones, more than couple of
times.
Who can ever forget Brito's stance as
he cody sized up the situation. The crossed
feet and hands on hips were his trade
mark, He always looked relaxed un-
troubled. Football provided living for
him, but it always seemed to be a game
first. He enjoyed it. He played it with
the same zest as a man drawing to a full
house in poker.
Blocking backs probably remember
BritO better than anyone. He had a way OF
rolling off and getting around them to the
paSser that was hard to stop. They couldn't

Colts Owner Unhappy
With NFL-CBS Pact

MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Jan.
IL (AP).-Carroll RoSenbloom,
owner of the Baltimore Colts,
believes the new televiSion con-
tract the National Football
League signed with the CHS
network will force his club to
operate in the red during 1862.
For the past two years our
television contract with NBC
has kept us in the black"
Rosenbloom said last night. IF
we had not had the pact we
would have operated in the red
those two years because of our
continually increasing operat-
ing costs.
I'VE will take a beating on
the new TV contract" he said,

The new package TV deal

Rozelle, commissioner of the

club would be about $326,000 a

losing money on the deal would
be Baltimore.
Rosenbloom said he believes
the package deal was sold toe

The power-wielding council Of
the National Collegiate Athletic

further the break between the

programs for creation of new

The council ended the one
year probationary status of the
University of Arizona, which
had been slapped for football
recruiting violations, but re-

penalty on all sports handed to
Indiana in April, 1860.
Indiana had asked that the
penalty, imposed for six foot
ball recruiting violations, be
modified to free non-football
teams at the university. The
council rejected the appeal,
