indicate another capacity
crowd of 1929 at d. C. stadi-
UNI. The kickoff is scheduled
for 2 pm.
Only $500 seats remained
unsold last night, the Redskins
said. These will go on sale at
the Stadium at 8 am.
The Redskins position in the
Eastern Division, after today's
results are In, will depend on
the outcome of a couple Of 9TH
er games. But they can't move
up if they don't win, and the |
sporting gentry has made them |
3-point favorites.
Jurgensen To Start
The game shapes up as a.
duel between the Re dskins'
grinding offense, with every
body lending q hand, and the
Eagles flashy running and
passing, featuring q certain
few. Quarterback Sonny Jur-
gensen Of the Eagles, missed
last weeks game with the Cow
boys because of a spraine d
wrist and thumb on his throw
ing wing, but Is scheduled to
start today. His opposite num-
Der will be Norman Snead.
Disappointed everywhere but
at the box office, the Eagles
repeatedly are tighter than a
50 ,98 alarm clock for this one.
Three of their four games at
Franklin Field have been 60,671
sellouts, but not until last Sun
day did they break into the win
column. They were tied by the
Steelers and bowled over by the
Cardinals and Giants in their
other games.
While unable to match the
Eagles drawing power, the
Redskins have a better won-
lost record. They bounced back
after that 37-14 nightmare at
Cleveland to whip the Rams
and Cowboys, and except for
two dropped passes might have
upset the Giants.
Today's task is formidable,
what with the defensive back
field in rather woebegone con-
dition. Johnny s Samples loss
and Jim Steffen's uncertain
physical condition could be an
invitation for Jurgensen to fire
away. Rookie Ted Rzempoluch
was brought up from the taxi
squad to replace Sample, and
Dick James and Fred Dugan
have been alerted for emergen-
cy defense duty.
Sure-Fingered Catchers
Jurgensen has q couple of
sure fingered receivers in Tom
my Mcdonald and old Pete
Retzlaff. But H alfback Tim
Browns nifty foo two rk also
gives Redskins coaches the
shakes. Brown not only carries
the ball on running plays, but
returns punts and kickoffs-
AND catches passes.
Coach Bill McPeak worked
overtime to improve the Red
skins running plays this week,
but passing won't be neglected.
If the Washington line can't
spring Don B osseler, Billy
Barnes and James for the nee
esSary yardage. Snead will be
forced to fall back on passing

Lutheran Church To
Have Guest Speaker

The Rev. Paul L. Buehrle,
Pastor of Reformation Lutheran
Church, announced today that DR..
Conrad Raker, Superintendent OF
the Good Shepherd Lutheran
Home, will speak at the Church
on Sunday, December Is, 1868.
The Good Shepherd Home is a
home for aged and orphans but
is more especially a home for
victims Of cerebral palsy. Un-
doubtedly the best equipped
Church Home In the country,
persons who are felled by
cerebral palsy are rehabilitated,
insofar as this is possible. The
home has facilities to aid In
teaching victims to walk again,
to use their limbs again, and to
then use them In the workshops
on the home grounds that make
parts for industry.
In this way people who once
felt they were no more use to
society now take a place In that
society and they take a place
through efforts that come out of
Christian Love and Concern.
DR.. Raker will speak of the
work of particular individuals
who have been rehabilitated.
