great as he could have been.
Big Daddy would sometimes
wait and try to see who was going
to receive the ball and go after the
receiver instead Of plowing head
long through the hne," explained
Bobby.
Mitchell said he did not believe
Big Daddy wanted to leave Balti-
more because, after Buddy Young
and others brought him there, and
he made good, that was all he
knew and I'm sure he wanted to
stay there"
Tracing Big Daddy's career,
Bobby said he went into the Mar
ines right out of high school, and
after the Marines went to the
CLOS Angeles Rams.) He didn't do
well there, explained Bobby, and
was sold for a hundred dollars
or so" to Baltimore.
"As soon as he got to Baltimore
they recognized his talent and
gave him a good chance, and you
know what happened then," said
Bobby.
There are probably many who
in time will record meaningful
Epitaths for Big Daddy, but when
Bobby Mitchell was asked to state
his impression of Big Daddy's
worth, he said:
"Well think would speak for
everybody in the league when I
say this: Any running halfback,
or any man who has got to run
through the middle of the line,
when he starts through that line
and he don't see Big Daddy, there's
going to be a sigh of relief"

Redskins Back:
Bobby Mitchell
ToIks Of big
DoddY" Lipscomb
BY A.N.P. SPORTS STAFF


Washington (ANP) They
said goodbye to Gene big Daddy
Lipscomb last week, but for most
of the men in the "plgslin world"
1t was not a farewell marked by
fearful historonics, for Big Dad
dy's colleagues remembered most
ly his football feats and the hu-
morous personality that made him
immortal.
One such colleague, who Is a
great" in his own right, recalled
for Associated Negro Press the
memorable moments he had with
big Daddy" during legendary
football wars in the National Foot
ball League.
Bobby Mitchell, famed halfback,
who came to the Washington Red
skins last year from the Cleveland
Browns, relived the first moments
he played against Big Daddy, back
in 1859.
At the time, Bobby was with the
Browns and Big Daddy was with
the Baltimore Colts.
Bobby said this was the first
time he had had the opportunity
to really see Big Daddy play. II
had heard a great deal about him,
but it wasn't long before I knew
what he could do" explained the
Redskins speedster.
II had heard so much about the
way he could move through the
line and make it look so effortless.
"Well, on this one particular
play, I had the ball and had run
through the line. We had really
faxed him out because he was
looking at Jim Brown and thought
he had the ball.
II had actually passed him and
had gotten through the line and
thought I was gone. But Big Dad
dy just reached out and caught me
and pulled me back, just like I
was a little feather and sat me
down on the ground.
"Of course, I told him, please
don't hurt me, and he turned me
loose" laughed Mitchell.
Mitchell said the nearly 300
pound "Mr. Lineman" was often
criticized for not being as tough
as he might be on an opposing ball
player.
But" said Bobby, it really
wasn't necessary. He would on
many occasion catch a player and
put him down on the ground, and
let him know who was boss at the
same time he wouldn't try to hurt
him or be overly rough.
HE always got his job done
without having to do this type of
thing" said Mitchell.
After Big Daddy was trans
ferred to the Pittsburgh Steelers
from the Colts, Bobby said he real
ly got to know him on the field
then because they played against
each other at least twice a year,
and sometimes three times a year
because Of an exhibition game.
Assessing the loss of Lipscomb
to the Steelers, Mitchell said there
were many times when Big Daddy
would be knocking him down on an
end run. He was and would have
to be fast to get from his line spot
to hit me on an end run, explained
Bobby.
This was fantastic speed for a
man that SIZE" said Mitchell. II
have heard people say that at 40
or so yards he was exceptionally
fast, and could run with the half
backs.
1T had to be natural ability for
man that size to run that fast
and this definitely made him one
Of the greatest defensive nnemen
in the League.
Bobby said he thought it was
more of a personal thing that
caused Baltimore to trade him,

1t happens on every team, ex'
planned Bobby. There are coaches
who don't get along well always
with the players and players who
don't get along well with all mem.
bers Of the coaching staff. q
definitely think it was one Of these
things" said Bobby.
Although Mitchell didn't say It,
this reporter heard of an alleged
incident which occurred while Big
Daddy was with Baltimore.
The story went that one Of the
white players on the team gave a
party and had invited the Negro
players. But the white players
wife was from the South and did
not want Negroes in her home.
When the Negro players found out
about it, they did not go to the
party.
But somehow, the word failed to
get to Big Daddy. When he got to
the party, a big row subsequently
ensued. The report was that Big
Daddy picked up the white party
host and flung him out of a win
dow.
Baltimorians said nothing was
ever published about the incident,
but it was not too long after that
that both Big Daddy and the white
teammate were released from the
Baltimore team.
I asked Bobby if he had heard
of the incident and he said he had.
He added though: II personally
can't see how a coach in his right
mind can turn a player like Big
Daddy loose"
