Army completely by surprise. 1t was not

A SORE POINT is touched both by

Staubach and % other players are cited as

If you go back far enough, this is the

There's nothing so drastic in the

There are many complica-

Efforts May Fan
Selkirk. long associated with
the Yankees as player and
manager Of their high minor
clubs, is learning the hard way
that nobody is anxious to help
a last-place ball club.
The general manager. whose
spirits have been high through
the meetings here and in San
Diego. admitted early today
that he might leave here with
out completing a deal.
Selkirk has known Skowron
for years and managed him at
Kansas City. He thinks Show
ron will come around and be q
valuable addition to the Sena-
tors. However, Manager Gil
Hodges apparently is wary of
adding q dissatisfied ball play

Selkirk believes. Werhas has an
option remaining, but Ortega

Bonus Boys on List
Selkirk is offering any Of
several bonus players, including
Frank Garrett, the $4,000
pick Of last year, and Tom De-
Hart Of Arlington to the Dodg-
ers' farm teams, plus such
players on the Toronto roster
as Ed Hobaugh, DO Osborne or
Jim Bronstad. Retzer also fig

STATUS UNCLEAR
ON TERP CENTER

Scott Ferguson, a 6-foot-8
senior center, failed to make
the trip with Maryland's
basketball team for its
game last night at George
town. but his status is
unclear.
Coach Bud Millikan re-
fused to confirm reports
that Ferguson had dropped
off the team. A frequent
starter last season when he
averaged nine points a
game, Ferguson had lost
his berth on the No. / unit
this season to sophomore
Rick Wise. He did not see
any action in Maryland's
opener against Virginia.

Playmaker Brown, another

as the middle-man in the fast

the Navy football cause and ii

vorite against Army Saturda!
than any other Navy captain
in recent memory.
II don't recall q Navy team
that has had so few injuries,
Wayne Hardin, the Middies
coach, said yesterday. "And
give much of the credit to Tom
Lynch"
just why Lynch : deserves
praise for few injuries to the
rest Of the team wasn't made
clear, but the fact remains that
he's the only captain in al
least nine years who wasn't
sidelined for some part Of the
season.
Hes the first captain since
I've been here who hasn't been
injured" Hardin said. Hardin
has been head coach since
1859, but he arrived at Annap-
oils as an assistant coach under
Eddie Erdelatz In 1855.
Lynch is a 21-year-old senior
from Lima, Ohio, who was used
mainly as a defensive lineback-
er last season as the Middies
broke even In 10 games, includ-
ing a 34-14 victory over Army.
With the graduation of Walt
Pierce, Navy found itself with
out q tested offensive center
and so Lynch stepped in. Ac-
cording to Hardin he improved
tremendously on offense and
has lost none Of his defensive
skill. He teams with Guard
Fred Marlin to give Navy two
strong linebackers.
But In the matter Of injuries,
Lynch's example deserves only
part Of the credit. Hardin be-
ieves his system Of using three
units-two that play both Of
tense and defense and a third
team that specializes in de-
tense, may have had Just as
much to do with 1t.
Few Hurt I'm Game
It keeps the boys fresh and
doesn't tire them too much.
Hardin also said that the elm
ination of game-type scrimma-
ges after the season opened
has a great effect on the lack
Of injuries.
"You don't get too keyed UP
In a scrimmage," Hardin said.
Actually, very few boys are
hurt during the game"
While Navy has had very few
injuries, Army goes into the

That danger looms large in

Conversations at the meeting

that Senator Goldwater Is pre-

State chairmen and national

convention city at a meeting in
Washington next Tuesday.
Today's session was high
lighted by q public rebuke from
Ohio State Chairman Ray C.
Bliss to Peter ODonnell, Texas
COP. chairman and leader Of
the National Draft Goldwater
Committee.
Mr.. Bliss, who rarely engages
in public controversy, criticized
Mr.. ODonnell for telling a Den
yer newspaper reporter Thurs
day, THAT State chairmen's
meeting I was at today was a
Goldwater meeting"
Closed Workshop
Mr.. ODonnen was referring
to a closed workshop session
of State chairmen, concerned
with organization techniques,
over which Mr.. Bliss presided.
Mr.. Bliss had declared pub
licly there would be no discus
sion Of issues or candidates at
the session and others who at
tended said there was none.
The Ohio chairman, without
mentioning Mr.. ODonnell by
name, criticized "the unfortu-
nate statement by young State
chairman to the effect that all
or nearly all State chairmen
are for q particular candidate"
Then he added: "The bulk
of the States are inclined to
favorite sons or are uncom-
mitted at this point and many
Of them intend to stay that way
for some time"
The site committee recon-
mendation of San Francisco
was announced by Colorado
State Chairman Jean Tool. He
said the July 10 starting date
was fixed by the desire to open
the convention as early as pos
sible after the independence

supporters view Cows. Romney

Rockefeller and Gov. James
Rhodes of Ohio, as possible

The cool weather and recent
rains not only revived lawns
and gardens in the Washington
area, they also seemed to put
more vivid colOrs in the flowers.
The petunias, dahlias, even the
marigolds seem brighter. Weed
ing, feeding and some trimming
should help them to maintain
this fine display until frost kills
them.
Lawn work, seeding and fer
tilizing, should be completed as
soon as possible. This is es-
pecially important in the more
outlying sections where freezing
and thawing weather may pose
a threat to late seeded lawns
especially where the slow germ
mating Kentucky bluegrass is
used. For this reason preference
should be given to the quick
terminating red and chewingS
fescueS.
