He's Needed Mitchell

26 dancing girls and Joe Blair?"
Later, when Mitchell swung into action,
McCann realized that further steps had
been taken to fill the void he had left.
Make it read Mitchell, 26 dancing girls and
Joe Blair" amended McCann, happily.
Striking a blow for Secretary OF
Interior Udall and the District Commission
ers who watched from the mezzanine,
Mitchell wasted little time in displaying his
rare gifts in the Redskins first home game
IT WAS SCORELESS in the opening
period when he faxed Defensive Back Pat
Fischer out of his shoes, reached up and
picked off Snead'S perfect throw to make
it TO. In the second quarter there were two
Cardinals with whom to contend-Fischer
and Wilson-but the Snead- Mitchell combo
kicked it up to 14-0.
1t was becoming uncomfortably close
when the Cards scored early in the third
quarter, but the first of those two 29-yard
completions gave Bob Khayat an opport-
unity to kick 28-yard field goal. 1t was
a widely appreciated bit of cooperation be-
tween Mitchell and the alumnus of Ole Miss.
The other BIG pass moved the ball to
the Cards IT, This time the opportunity
was for the Redskins ball carriers, notably
Billy Barnes. He and Joe Cunningham
rammed it over for more than enough
points.
sNEAD's PASSES DIDN'T gain quite

EtcheverryS throws picked up for the Cards.
but the Redskins guy looked to be better
pitcher yesterday His first intercepted
aerial was his last. Etcheverry had four
grabbed off by the Redskin secondary.
Ftcheverry tossed some beauts, but on
others it looked as if the st. Louis receivers
were trying to catch Hoyt Wilhelm bare
handed. Being beaten on the statistics
sheet individual or team, is nothing new
to the Redskins They haven't topped any
club in that department, only on the score
board.
Probably no other Redskin season has
begun in such variety of ways. Take
Barnes, best of the ball carriers. He still
hasn't signed a contract, qualifying, no
doubt, as most valuable malcontent the
club has ever had.

WIN LOSE OR DRAW

ON THE SECOND PLAY of the after
noon Norman Snead fired forward pass
intended for the Redskins right end, Fred
Dugan, and it was complete Only 1t was
Larry Wilson, right safety for the st. Louis
Cardinals, who caught it.
A groan went up in D. C. Stadium.
Across thousands of minds the thought
must have flashed: This is where we left
off last year The heroics in Dallas and
Cleveland earlier must have been Pigments
Of television.
But except for that single lapse the
gangling quarterback from Wake Forest
threw passes worthy of an all-pro. He
popped the cork on a 40-yarder to Bobby
Mitchell for touchdown; again to Mitchell
for a 23-yard I'd; third time for 20
yards to set up a field goal, and, finally,
a 29-yarder to pave the way for the Red
skins last touchdown in 24-l4 victory.
Mitchell is wonderful after he catches
pass, but it isn't all Bobby. If it takes two
to tango, it likewise takes two to complete
the big pass. Give new look at Norman
Snead.
THIS is NOT TO TAKE anything
away from Mitchell the one-time

any doubt Bobby is mainly responsible for
the Redskins lofty position as the only un-
beaten team in the Eastern division, even
more so than Snead
Mitchell saved the Redskins hides IN

couraged club lift There is incentive,
now, for the linemen to give their all. AS
long as they have Mitchell-and Snead to
throw-there is a chance of beating any

There is an artistry that enhances
Mitchell'S speed when he shoots downfield
for a pass. ReckleSsly it might be suggested
that after only three games he already is
the best pass-catcher in Redskin history.

Miscues Leave
John Crow in
Deep Gloom
BY DICK SLAY
Star Staff Writer

In the visitors dressing room
at D. C. Stadium late Iyester-
day afternoon John David
Crow was not easily recognized.
"That'S him over there"
Coach Wally Lemm said, point
ing to a figure seated with his
back to the room, his head
hidden by a towel and held in
his hands in obvious anguish.
II wouldn't ask him anything
If I were you," Lemm warned
unnecessarily.
There was nothing to ask,
really. Crow had gained 81 of
the Cardinals 66 net yards
rushing and scored both Cardi-
nal touchdowns, but had lost
the ball four times on fumbleS,
contributing greatly to the Red
skins 24-14 victory. The huge
halfback was the most stricken
party of an unusually silent
roomful of losers.
1.-THE guys a great back"
Lemm offered. at was one of
those days, that's all. One good
thing you can say about it,
though. He's not hurt"
Grow missed about half of
last season because of injuries
and didn't make an appearance
in the Cardinals 24-0 triumph
here. One of the chief differ
ences this time, of course, was
the addition of Bobby Mitchell
to the Washington club.
Lemm was asked to compare
Mitchell to Tommy Mcdonald,
whom the Cards had limited
to one long pass reception and
no touchdowns in their 27-21
decision over the Eagles two
weeks before.
The st. Louis coach couldn't
make a direct comparison, ex-
planning that he had doubled
up defensively against Nc
Donald, while yesterday Pat
Fischer had the sole RESPONSE
bility of shadowing Mitchell as
a pass receiver, with only "oc-
casional" help from Bill Stacy
or Norm Beal.
Mitchell twice beat Fischer
on touchdown passes from
Norman Snead and gave him
the slip a couple of other times
for near scores.
Fischer normally plays his
man very WE'LL" Lemm said.
"He played Mcdonald very
well, and Terry Barr of De-
troit. too. So, on the basis of
today, I'd have to say that
Mitchell is exceptional.
But the thing that hurt us
most" the coach summed up,
was the way all the Redskins
played. They were fired up
and they hit like hell"

going to finish last after all

nosticators take another look
at those baleful preseason pre-
dictions of such a fate after
humbling the Cardinals, 24-14
yesterday at d. C. Stadium.
Still unbeaten and still first
in the Eastern Division, the
Redskins have the idea they're
tough. It's a wild scramble for
the title, especially with the
Browns losing two straight,
and the Redskins also are get
ting that good feeling that they
may be lucky. It's tough COM
bination to beat-if they really
have it.
The next three games should
provide a clue to their hopes
and fate. The Rams come here
Sunday, winless and hungry.
The Los Angeles eleven isn't
rated as bad as its record, and
it had no trouble with the Red
skins in their preseason joust,
winning 37-7. Then it's out to
st. Louis for Coach Bill Nc
Peaks men, and later on to
Philadelphia and New York.
When they return home to bat
tie Dallas in November, every
body should have a clear view
of the situation.
Rock n Roll Football
Over the years the faithful
have seen a wide and some
times weird variety of football.
The 80, $50 basking in the warm
autumn sun yesterday were
treated to a rock n roll YER
sion, with a touch of the old
soft shoe thrown in by Bobby
Mitchell. The defense rocked
'em and the offenSe rolled 'em
for the winning margin.
Mitchell gave the customers
a thrill in the first period on a
40-yard touchdown pass from
Norman Snead. He got another
on a 23-yard strike from the
same pitcher in the second
quarter. Bobby Khayat's 28-yard
field goal and Jim Cunning
hams 1-yard plunge completed
the scoring.

formance. The men up front
played for keeps, and some
tackles seemed to shake the

an aerial duel. st. Louis came
out ahead, 275 yards to 205,
but Etcheverry, the Canadian

key passes and Gerry Perry

goal tries that would have kept
the Cardinals in the running.

a face-guarding penalty, to
help get their second score.
Subbing for injured Doug
Elmore, Crabb let Randle slip
away into the end zone and
was guilty of face-guarding in
attempting to recover. 1t put
the ball on the 1-yard line.
Grow then went over for his
second touchdown of the day.
The visitors first score was
legitimate enough and marked
the only time during the other

the Redskins pass defense

Travelled 80 yards, with Etch-
every throwing to Taz Ander-
son and Joe ChildreSs, and
Childress running we'll with the
ball before Grow rambled the
last 6 yards into the end zone.
Mitchell's first touchdown
was one of his own patented
brand. He faxed Billy Stacy
and Pat Fischer neatly to get
a step in front of them. He
looked over his left shoulder
for the throw, snapped back the
other way and made a finger
tip catch at full speed.
Wilson, Fischer Faxed
Bobby victimized Larry Will
son and Fischer on his second
touchdown, leaving them be-
hind in the end zone while he
darted to one side to take the
throw from Snead.
A 29-yard pitch from Snead
to Mitchell started the last
touchdown m arch following
Stynchula's tumble recovery.
The rubber-legged halfback al
most got clear on this one,
taxing Norm Beal out of the
way before Fischer nailed him
from behind. Before the day
ended Mitchell caught seven
passes for lat yards, outdoing
Randle, who shared six for 122.
Snead had a field day in the
first half, completing seven OF
IL passes for lot yards. The
Deacon finished with 13 COM
pletions in % throws for 217
yards. Etcheverry hit on l9

A step back in time

The foursome took box Of costumes and a
portfolio Of prints and with wardrobe lady and
makeup man, spent the day recreating the
graceful poses in the antique prints. Although
their film is set in modern day Japan, the serenity
and timeess beauty of the old prints still typi6es
the Orient the printmakers Of Japan captured in
the 18th, 18th and 18th centuries.
Strangely enough, there's great Hnship
between these old drawings and modern movies.
The prints were the popular art form Of old
Japan, as the films are today. Their themes were
the topics Of the day = theater, politics, social
problems, romance, court and society scandals.
The works sold cheaply and were distributed
widely throughout Japan. Looking at them was
as prevalent pastime then as going to the
movies is for US.
Treasure 10 gladden. minds
Oddly enough, the finest and largest cOllec-
tions Of these prints today not in Japan but in
American museums. James Michener in his book
on Japanese prints, The Floating World" urges
us all to go to our museums and ask to see these
neglected collections.
For he says, II must stress that the Japanese
prints are joy. They will gladden. the mind and
