Norman Snead has played
1712 pro football games for the
Redskins. So, having keenly OBJ
served his actions and acutely
diagnosed his strategy, grand
stand quarterbacks want to re-
place him with Galen Hall,
whose total experience adds up
to about Is minutes.
Hall is quiet, well hammered
and has the Somber expression
of a salesman whose best pros
pect has just said mo" Four
teen National League, eight
American League and nine Ca
madam teams passed him by at
their draft meetings, so the
Redskins got him as a free
agent. This isn't a knock, be-
cause all three leagues have
good players who were over
looked by one coach or another.
At Fort Eustis, Va, or hitch
ing a ride somewhere on U. S.
Route /, is George Izo, a pasSer
who might beat out both Snead
and Hall if he had time. Izo
hasn't quite finished his six
month tour of Army duty and
spends his free time committing
between Fort Eustis and the
Redskins. He'd survive a war if
only because the enemy wouldn't
know exactly where to look for
him.

night when Norman limped
of the field with a sprung
hamstring to a chorus of boos
Cheers greeted poker-faced
Galen. On his first play a big
paw attached to Bill Ray Smith
reached across the line and
hauled him to the damp turf
for a tWo-yard loss.
Snead aroused his critics ire
with questionable call near
the end of the first half-a pass
intended for Steve Junker with
the score tied at TT.
A week before the mighty
Colts ran up a APT count on
the Eagles in the same space
of time. Few dreamed that the
Redskins would hold them SO
close, even on a wet field. But
there it WaS-almoSt. Then
Snead threw, Max Christian
tipped the ball and Dave Yohn
intercepted to set up Balti-

The play was sent in from
the bench and it was a good
one" Snead explained. II was
gong to call a pass anyway,
but I didn't have that particu-
lar one in mind. Steve was
open, but the linebacker made
a good play tipping the bah,

LET THE TEXT FOR TODAY begin on
the worn-record note: How do the Los
Angeles Angels do it? And when do they
find their level? Not one 300 hitter, not
pitcher among the % in the majors whove
won a dozen games. Besides, Manager Bill
Rigney has bum stomach.
He's got a queaSy breadbaSketl What
about the managers of So-called bona fide
contenderS? Rigs Angels are making
run at the Yankees that's practically as
valid as the San Francisco Giants charge
at the L. A. Dodgers. And these two clubs
were co-favoriteS in the National League.
The defending Cincinnati Reds were
supposed to make a serious bid to repeat.
The Pittsburgh Pirates and st. Louis Cards
were conceded flag chances. Forget the
last two. Forget. also, Chicago Detroit,
Baltimore and Cleveland in the AL
The Angels have even taken to Sabo-
tagging personal ambitions, such as Tom
TreShS aim to become Rookie of the Year.
The other day Ralph Houk of the Yankees
felt impelled to make a switch in his line
up. Took fresh off ShortStop, replaced
! him with Tony Kubek and moved the kid
to Kubek'S post in leftfield. fresh was

tough double play Houk obviously feels
the World Champs need every DIP they can
get.

triouS convalescent of EaSton, Md, the
other day. we asked, IF the Angels can do
this we'll in so, what might be expected
. in the future?
, "They won't be as good next year."
Veeck predicted. II don't want to take any
thing away from Rigney and Fred Haney,
but doubt if the Angels are team that
will improve-as they now stand. 1 don't
know what's keeping them in second place"
In case you ask how Veeck would know
confined as he is at the moment to his
pastoral estate, let it be stated that he
isn't entirely dependent on his televSion

time pending his return to baseball. Veeck

the game.

PROVIDED THAT PRESIDENT Pete
Quesada still is in position to terminate
the contracts of Mickey Vernon and Gen
eral Manager Ed Doherty there's board of
directors meeting coming up SOON they'll
both be out of jobs with the Senators.
That's Quesada's intention, one which he
reaffirmS with varying degrees of finality.
But if Vernon departs from Washington
the chances are he'll have company within
the managerial ranks. Ditto, perhaps, for
Doherty.

Beatty Runs 1865 Mile;
Four Others Crack Barrier

LONDON, Aug. 10 CAP).-
Jim Beatty, the strong. little
American who has been i'm
proving with age, ran the mile
in 1865 in a thrilling race
here that saw the first five men
three of them Americans
all clicked IN under four
minutes.
The 5-foot-6, 128-pound ace
of the Los Angeles Track Club
spurted in the stretch to nose
out teammate Jim Grelle. who
was only two-tenths-second
slower, as both bettered the
American record of 3:57.6 set
by Oregon's Dyrol Burleson in
May, 1861.
The winning time was %
seconds slower than the world
record of 3:54.4 set by Peter
Smell of New Zealand last
January.
Britain'S Stan Taylor was
third in $3.50, followed by Bob
Seamon, another Los Angeles
Track Club member, in $3.50
and Mike Berisford of England
in 1892. Bill Cornell, a Briton
back home after studying at
Southern Illinois University,
was sixth in 4:0l.2.
Still Has Hopes
The 27-year-old Beatty. first
runner to crack four minutes
for the mile indoors and the
worlds fastest two-miler, had
hoped to break SHELLS mile
mark in White City Stadium
today. He still thinks he can
do it.
"Today's race suggests that
with good conditions 1 stand a
chance of breaking the world
record. Maybe I will in Hell
sinki on Tuesday"

challenge and moved up second
behind Beatty. Grelle came
again, and for a second took
over the lead, but Beatty came
back again with a burst at the
finish to pass Grelle.
II was very pleased with the
time for the race" Beatty said.
But I wasn't as sharp today
as I might have been. My legs
were pretty tired after that

days ago on a wet track in

The race had the crowd of

that five men had smashed four

erS, ReQS ana Giants the largeS
probably will be fewer than
ever among the first-division
clubs in the American League
this year because of the diSap-
pointmentS.
A cellar club such as the
Senators obviously cannot af-
ford to have very many I'M
touchables, if any. They need
help. and they have to depend
on the draft and deals. There
are few. if any, 1868 major
league prospects in their farm
system. The best in their chain
are a couple of years away.
- -
However, you'd have to say
that Chuck Hinton is almost an
untouchable. In fact. he's so
close that it would take a deal
that wouldn't make sense to
another club to get him away.
Hinton is in a position to lead
the Senators in almost every
hitting department, plus stolen
bases, and the club figures
Hinton hasn't reached his peak.
Catcher Ken Retzer is an
other the Senators could i'll
afford to give up. Retzer has
Been one of the few pleasant
surprises of the season, and
the catching staff will be built
around him next year.
The Senators have too much
invested in Ed Brinkman to
listen to any offers for their
top bonus choice. Brinkman
may be a year or two away,
but in that time baseball men
say he could be the best field
ing Shortstop in the league.
Owner Tom Yawkey of the
Red Sox is among Brinkman's
admirers but it is unlikely that
the Senators would listen to an
offer. They couldn't get enough
for Brinkman at that time to
justify their investment or his
potential.
Jim Hannah and Claude
OSteen would rank 1-2 as I'M
touchables on the pitching
staff, based on their potential
and their age. Hannah is %
and Osteen %. With an injury
free season. Osteen could be
one Of the top southpaws in the
league next year. In Hannah
the Senators believe they have
the fast-balling young reliever
that they sorely needed the
first half of the season this
year.
Hannah, like Brinkman, will
benefit from this years ex-
perience, including the costly
mistake of throwing the home
run pitch to Leon Wagner in
the 10th inning Friday night
Chuck Cottier, Harry Bright
and Dave StenhouSe all have
had good years, and it woulo

cryStal-clear by turns, was al
ways expressive, always con-

piano gave him solid support.
Donald Hefner chose a COM
