Redskins tonight with a stun
ming Alb victory before an
estimated crowd of 21,500 in
the second annual Pro-Youth
Bowl.
1t was known that the Eagles,
with Coach Nick Skorich's job
possibly hanging in the balance,
planned to go all out after los
ing their first two games. 1t
also was publicized that Coach
Bill McPeak wanted a look at
some of his rockies. Nobody
however, expected the lopsided
exhibition that was dominated
completely by the Philadelph-
ianS after the first five minutes.
Two Linemen Missing
The Redskins missed Defen-
sive End John Paluck and
Guard John Nisby. Paluck was
left in Carlisle, Pa, with an
aching back and Nisby came
down with a virus almost as
the team was departing for the
stadium. owever, they
couldn't have saved their team
mates from tonight's humilia-
ton.
The Redskins sorely missed
that big" running back they've
been seeking. Washington net
ted only IS yards on the
ground, compared to Ill for
the Eagles.
The big Philadelphia line
manhandled its Redskin OPP
ponents, kept the runners bot
tied up most of the night and
put pressure on both Norman
Snead and George Izo through
out the game.
This made it rather easy for
the secondary to wait for Wash
ington's harassed receivers.
Snead got the first RcdSkin
touchdown on a 16-yard toss
to Bobby Mitchell a few sec
onds before the end of the first
half. 1t capped an 86-yard
drive following a penalty on a
kickoff. Snead completed nine
of "a passes for 88 yards-not
up to par for the deacon.
IzO Hits 6 For 10
Snead worked overtime. Nc
Peak hoped to get him out of
the game early. or at least after
one half, but Norman played
| almost three periods before Izc
came to his relief. The latter
completed six of 10 passes fol
\ 103 yards and lobbed a touch
down to Dick James good fol
10 yards.
Meanwhile. Sonny Jurgensen
and King Hill we're getting bet
ter protection and making it
count. Both lofted a pair OF
touchdown passes, with Pete
Retzlaff taking the two Jur-
gensen areials.
Hill connected with Paul
Dudley and Ken Gregory, the
latter coming in the final sec
onds of the game.
In all. the Eagle passing
game was good for 800 yards
on 81 competitions in 20 at
tempts, including the four
scores. Philadelphia completed
it's scoring with a 5-yard run
by Tim Brown and a LIZARD
buck by Ted Dean.
Izo's protection was no better
than Snead's and he spent a
good portion of the humid eve
ming on the flat of his back.
The temperature was in the
upper Dos. but the Eagles were
even hotter.
James touchdown was spec
tacular, coming early in the
final period after a series of
passes to Billy Barnes, Bill An
derson and James moved the
ball to the Eagles 10. Dick got
behind Mike Mcclellan to make
a leaping catch deep in the end
zone. He juggled the ball mo-
mentarily before hauling it in.
MitchelI-ScOtti Even
The Mitchell Ben Scott duel
was about even, although Bobby
outfoxed the one-time Redskin
to make his scoring catch.
Otherwise it was a pretty dull
evening for Washington fans
and the Redskins legion Of
Carolina supporters.
Pat Richter got more punting
experience tina expected as
the Eagles pushed the Red
skins back and made them kick
seven times. The teams No. /
draft choice averaged 40 yards
