18th year. The Rams need Of
fensiVe linemen and Sewel, old
as he is, may help them. The
Lions need a good running
back, need him as badly as the
Redskins. Perhaps Matson, old
as he is, can help them. On
paper it seems to be a standoh.
Two thing are certain: The
Redskins didn't want Matson
and didn't need Sewell.
Ollie, who played college
football for Joe Kuharich at
the University of San Francisco
in 1860, played out his option
with the Rams last year, for
all intents and purposes becom-
ing a free agent. But at 80 it's
hard to catch on with another
club, especially when you
haven't played your normal
position for four years. and
Ollie signed with Los Angeles
again, They've been using him
as an end.
The Redskins talked with
Coach Harland Svare OF the
Rams. but Matson's name
wasn't mentioned. Bill McPeak
got the idea that Svare could
give up somebody like Art
Perkins or Ben Wilson, both
fullbacks. Wilson is a rookie
and Perkins gained 1877 yards
last year on 40 carries. The
Redskins could have Perkins
or Wilson for a couple Of first
string lineman or q four-year
lease on the White House. That's
q bargain?
Matson carried the ball three
times for the Rams in 1868,
gaining nothing, and caught
three passes for 40 yards and
one touchdown. He Is not the
kind Of big" back the Red
skins need.
y
McPeak has talked TO every
coach in the league In his quest
for the back the Redskins need.
II he'll leave his right arm as
a deposit and promise to deliver
John Nisby. Vince Promuto or
Bill Anderson, he can have al
most any player he wants. Well,
at least q second or third
stringer.
We asked Bill II he would

Absolutely" he replied. ITO
get the man we want I'd have
to give our No. pick next year
and q high choice, say the No.
3 pick. in 1865. But I'd be
willing to do it to get the man
I want"
1t is obvious that McPeak has
no intention Of trading a player
responsible for the Redskins
current status in the Eastern
Division for a back who can't
help them. There were outraged
cries Of protest, for example,
when the Colts obtained Full
back J. w. Lockett from the
Cowboys. Lockett is good but
that brings up another point: :
Is he better than the backs on
the Washington roster?
e
Speaking Of the Redskins
backs, they're a bit weary Of
hearing the talk and reading
the stories about how badly the
team needs a big" back. Dick
James summed 1t up pretty
we'll yesterday.
Almost since / got here I've
read how the team needs a big
back, and yet I'm still here, "
he said.
James, who weighs 1S2
pounds, and the others may
have missed the point, which
has not been stressed. McPeak

Houston Faces
ChargersWith
B|anda at Helm
BY the Associated Press

George Blanda. the gray
beard quarterback who fights
for his Job against the fuzz-
cheeks every summer and
usually wins it, will lead the
Houston Oilers against the San
Diego Chargers tonight as pro-
fessional football kicks off an
other busy week end of exhi-
billions.
The game at Houston repre-
sents the first home appearance
Of the Oilers, who have bounced
back to win two games since
taking a 27-10 cutting from
the Denver Broncos in their
preseason opener.
Blanda. beginning his 14th
pro season, was primarily re-
sponsible for the second one
a 21-20 victory at Boston last
week after the Oilers trailed,
900, at the half. Jacky Lee,
Blanda's youthful alternate at
quarterback, couldn't get the
club going, so Coach Pop Ivy
turned to old standby Blanda.
He completed 10 Of IL passes,
three for touchdowns, and may
have clinched a starting job
once more.
BIanda to Start
In any event, Ivy says
Blanda will start tonight.
The San Diego Houston
struggle is the first Of II
games on the pro schedule in
the next four days-bringing
all ~ teams into action.
Tomorrow night, Denver is
at Kansas City in the AFL. On
Saturday, Boston is at Buffalo,
and in the National League,
Chicago plays Green Bay at
Milwaukee, Baltimore meets
Pittsburgh at Atlanta, Detroit
faces st. Louis at Omaha, Phil
adelphia plays Washington at
Charlotte, and Dallas goes
against Los Angeles at Port
land. Greg, all in night games.
The NIL has two games Sum-
day-Cleveland at San Fran
cisco and New York at Mime
sofa and in the AFL, it's New
York at Oakland.
NFL Crowds Far Ahead
So far, the older. established
NFL-given a tremendous boost
by the more than $4,000 fans
who turned up at Cleveland for
a double header last Saturday
night-has far outdistanced
the AFL in attendance.
For IS dates, NIL preseason
attendance is 507, 697. With 20
dates left, the league is sure
to top the million mark in ex-
hibition crowds for the second
straight year.
On the other hand, the ALL
total is about $4,000 for its
first II dates and the biggest
disappointment has been the
mere $500 who turned up at
Kansas City for the first ap-
pearance Of the transplanted
league championships Dallas
Texans-two weeks ago. The
Kansas City folk will get an
other chance to show their
interest in the game between
the Chiefs and the Denver
Broncos tomorrow night.

Rebuilding Job
Facing Hardin
As Drills Begin
BY ROBERT SOMMERS
Star Staff Writer

In 1862 Dick Merritt was q
Unlicensed fullback who spent
a considerable part of the Navy
football season with the junior
varsity, but as practice opens al
Annapolis today he's a first
string tackle and q source Of
hope to Wayne Hardin, the
Middies' coach.
Hardin saw his entire two
way line, from tackle to tackle
graduate last June and now he's
up against what he calls the
biggest rebuilding Job he's had
at Navy.
Not that he doesn't have
some experienced linemer
among the 10 lettermen who
opened fall drills listed on the
first string. It's Just that they
all were specialists last year
when the three-platoon sys-
tenn was in practice.
Guards AL Krekich and Fred
Marlin, Center Tom Lynch and
Tackle Jim Freeman played
mostly on defense and will
spend much Of their practice
sessions learning the refine
ments Of offense.
This is what causes Hardin
to turn to Merritt for solace
Backfield Set
eff Merritt can make the
switch from fullback to tackle
then the others should be able
to learn offense," he said.
One who won't have to learn
offense Is Roger Staubach
Nays All-America quarterback
candidate, who directs q pat
backfielc Of John Sal and Dick
Earnest at halfbacks and Pat
Donnelly at fullback.
Hardin claims Staubach can
be the greatest quarterback in
Nays history. As q sophomore
Roger came off the bench
against Cornell, won the first
string assignment and came
within lit yards Of breaking
the Navy total-offense record
set by George Welsh.
"He has so much natural
ability" Hardin said, "and he
does everything we'll"
But in the next breath Har-
din tries to tone down the
superlatives.
II don't know how he car
live up to his press clippings,
he said.
Weighs 1874
Staubach spent part Of his
summer leave in his hometown
of Cincinnati playing touch
football and running with some
friends who play for Xavier.
I'VE ran sprints mostly
Staubach said, land zig-zags
through bushes"
Staubach said that he weighs
1874 pounds, about four pounds
over his playing weight Of last
year, but he doesn't expect to
carry the extra poundage very
long - mainly because two-a-
day drills open today.

Parents and teachers are
supposed to be mature-this
implies the ability to make
decisions. Therefore, 1t is our
responsibility to decide how
much schoolwork children
need to do.
A first or second grader
cannot be expected to under
stand, that learning to write
with ease and confidence in
sures success all through
school. Whether or not he
practices sufficiently to gain
this skill cannot be left to the
child's feeling of need for
writing.
"A conscientious m o t h e r
would not let her child decide
whether to brush his teeth or
pfit away his toys. She insists
he pay attention to such
tasks until they are COM
pleted.
And adults should expect
children to do satisfactory
work at their level. Children
need firm. support in estab-
fishing skills needed for flu
ture success.
But remember. not all chill
dren develop at the same rate.
Some may have made little
progress, for instance. in
mastering writing by the end
Of second grade. Moving such
children on to third grade
places them in a difficult po-
sition. In fact, they are not
prepared to do third grade
work.
Careful supervision and en-
couragement by teachers and
parents helps most children
catch up.
However, when slow writing
development is due to slow
physical development 1t is nc
