Blaik Says Army's Comeback
May Beat 5-Year Timetable
By tnt Associated Press
WEST POINT. N. Y., Dec.ll.l— 1
An Army football victory over:
Navy may come sooner than Col.'j
Earl H. Blaik figured.
Last year, when Navy crushed;
Army, 42-7, Blaik said it would
be five years before the future
generals would be able to hold
their own against the budding!
Navy officers. At that time the'
cribbing scandal, which wrecked;
a great Army team, was still fresh
in his mind.
But today Blaik revised his time
schedule after seeing his black
and gold-clad players lose, 7-0,
before some 102.000 fans in Phila
delphia's Municipal Stadium Sat
urday.
Feeling Much Better.
The colonel refused to predict
the time when the Cadets again
will be the powerhouse of old.
But he definitely was feeling much
better than after the 1951 game,
even though Saturday’s whipping
was Navy’s third straight over
Army.
“Let’s just say the boys have
come along faster than I antici
pated,” he said. "They definitely
are improving and will be better
next year.
“Don’t forget we played all
season without Freddie Meyers,
our best back last year.” Meyers
was sidelined during pre-season
training.
Asked what made him so op
timistic, Blaik said:
“We lose only seven men from
a squad that came a long way
this season. We need three or

Paul Brown Would Give Million
For Formula to Keep Team'Up'
“We beat you today because we
went after you,” Coach Paul
Brown told Washington sports
writers after directing his Cleve
land Browns to their overwhelm
ing victory over the Redskins.
"Briefly, that's the difference be
tween the game in Cleveland and!
the one here.
“We played well against the!
Redskins in Cleveland, but al-;
though we won, 19-15, we weren’t
up for it like wo were this one.
I’m convinced it’s’all mental,” he
said, tapping his forehead. “If you
can find away to get a team up
for each game, you’re my man. It
would be worth a million. I don’t
know how.
“Today the chips were on the
line and we knew we had to win
or we were through—so we wont
after you.”
When he was told the final
score of the New' York Giants’
rout in Pittsburgh, he merely
shook his head and said,” I can’t
understand it.”
A reporter wanted to know if
Brown didn’t think the day’s re
sults clinched the American Con
ference title for his team.
“No,” he replied quickly. “You
can say that, speaking for your
self. But I’m not claiming any
thing until we’ve won it. We’re
liable to be down again next week
against the Cardinals and the
Giants’ defeat will only make them
nasty wheh they meet us. I don’t
know' what happens to them
against these other teams, but |
they’re ahvays tough for us.” !
Brown thought the game here!
w'as one of Cleveland's better ones, I
but not its best this year. The)
coach said his team's top per-j
formance came in a 35-31 defeat!
by the San Francisco Forty-1
Niners in an exhibition game that;
didn’t count in the league stand-j
ings.
“We weren't as good as that
here,” he added, “but this defi
nitely was our next best.”
Coach Curly Lambeau thought 1
the Browns were the best team;
the Redskins have faced this sea
son, and that his club’s per
formance was one of its worst.
“We have no excuses.” Curly |
added. "We w r ere off in all de
partments.”
Chuck Drazenovich felt humil- i
iated w'hen he bounced about five!
yards after hitting 210-pound
Harry Jagade head-on in the sec-j
ond quarter. Jagade drove ahead!
five more yards after the impact!
for a nine-yard gain.
"He had the angle on me.”
Chuck explained. “I spent the
rest of the afternoon looking for
him to even it up. I was humili
ated on that play. I shouldn't
have let it happen.”
The last time Marion Motley
played here, the Browns' big full
back tangled with Gene Pepper.
Yesterday he exchanged pleasan
tries with Joe Tereshinki, and. for
a time, it seemed that both would
be thrown out of the game. Tere
shinski went after Motley for;;
throwing an arm block on Paul
Lipscomb after the whistle.
“Maybe I lost my head,” Joe ad- 1 '
mitted, but I'd like to have a
Redskin looking out for me if!,
something like that happened to (
me.”
Sammy Baugh, standing nearby,
happened to overhear this con
versation.
“He should have let Paul look
out for himself,” Sam said, with;
a wink.
Paul Brow'n was so engrossed
with last-minute details before j
the game he had an assistant
accept a trophy for him in a pre
game ceremony sponsored by the
four linemen and expect to get
! that many from a fair plebe
squad.”
Blaik. declined to name the
I plebe prospects but said they
were of the type that would be
valuable on both offense and de
fense.
Five Linemen Leaving.
Army loses five linemen by grad
uation next spring, including Capt.
!Al Paulekas, a defensive guard.
Others are End John R. Krobock,
Guard James Harris. Center John
Meglen and Tackle Frank Wilker
-1 son. Wilkerson played on the first
defensive platoon. The others
were on the second defensive
line. Don Fuqua, safety man,
also will be lost.
From the offensive squad, Blaik
will be minus only his second
string quarterback, Dick Boyle.

Pigskin Club. But the entire
committee—and a large number
of Browns’ fans—crowded into
the dressing room after the game
to shake hands and visit with
the players.
Horace Gillom, the Browns’
punting star, hung up an average
of 45.6 yards for the day. His
most spectacular kick was good
for approximately 51 yards, roll
ing dead a foot from the Red
skins’ goal with four Clevelanders
hovering over it. Another of his
punts was downed by Bill Willis
on the Redskins’ three-yard line.
George Ratterman, one-time
Notre Dame quarterback, finally
got a chance to play with only
!one minute and 15 seconds left.
But George had tough luck. On
! his first play, the Browns were
penalized five yards for taking
too much.time, and on the next
[his pass was intercepted by Dra
zenovich.
Julie Rykovich suffered a sever
ly sprained ankle late in the third'
period and will be X-rayed today.
It's possible that the former Chi-'
cago Bears back, who gave the
Redskins’ offense a tremendous lift
this season, will miss next Sun
day's game in New York.
The trap play on which Jagade
gained most of his yardage bor
dered on the illegal because of the
Browns’ near-holding tactics. But
the officiating of Ronald Gibbs’
crew was as bad as usual, this year.
They were roundly booed by the
crowd when two successive passes
caught by Bones Taylor and Gene
Brito were ruled out of bounds.
Most of the fans thought Brito’s
catch, at least, was made inside
the playing fieId.—ATCHISON.

State Denies Betting Probe
Os Rams-Forty Niners Game
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1 ( JP ).—
No investigation of gambling on
the Los Angeles-San Francisco
pro football game here yesterday
is planned by State officials, At
j torney General Edmund G. Brown
said today.
1 Brown said the report circu- !
lated by Drew Pearson, probably
stemmed from a telephone con
versation with the radio com- :
mentator in which Brown asked if
Pearson had heard anything about (
heavy gambling on the game. The
attorney general said a reliable j
informant told him a sudden!
surge of betting at Las Vegas, j
Nev., Saturday night, swung the
odds from the Rams in the Forty-
Niners’ favor.
Brown said later that it prob
ably was a mistake to mention
the subject to Pearson.

Murray Voted Top Coach
In Loop; Sherman Fifth
Bill Murray, who in his second
year as coach of Duke University’s
football team moved the Blue
Devils to the Southern Conference
championship, is the conference’s
coach of the year, in the opinion
of sports writers.
The Southern Conference Sports
Writers’ Association voted Murray
that honor over Art Lewis of West
Virginia, also a fairly recent new
comer to the family. On the 44
ballots cast Murray received 199
points to 100 for Lewis.
The surprisingly good season
enjoyed by George Washington
University, which turned in a
6-2-1 record in its first year under
Coach Bo Sherman, received rec
ognition when Sherman was put
fifth in the standings. He had 21
points. Ahead of him were Rex
Enright of South Carolina, 64. fol
lowed by Jim Tatum of Maryland
with 36. Tatum was the confer
ence’s coach of the year last sea
son.

Leßaron fired a touchdown pass'
to Hugh Taylor, who got behind;
Bert Rechichar and James.
Ken Carpenter, who had a big!
day otherwise, paved the way for
Washington’s second score by
fumbling as he ran back the next
kick-off. Johnny Williams picked
up the ball on the Browns’ 35-
yard line and got down to the 29.
' Pass interference by Warren Lahr
on Rykovich moved the ball to
the seven before Leßaron. start
ing out around end, paused and
lobbed another six-pointer to
Harry Gilmer in the end zone.
Jagade Starts Scoring.
Gilmer, shortly afterward, fum
bled on his own 15, where Young
recovered for the Browns. A couple
of plays later, with a five-yard
penalty against the Browns sand-:
wiched in between, Jagade went
17 yards straight down the middle
for the touchdown. That made
it 14-7, and one could sense that
that slender margin wouldn’t stand
up against the Browns.
Joe Tereshinski’s pass inter
ception gave the Redskins their |
next scoring opportunity in the
second quarter. Joe dashed 31
yards to Cleveland's 39. But after
Leßaron passed to Leon Heath
on the nine-yard line, the Browns
held and George Buksar was
called on for a 17-yard field goal.
Even that didn’t dispel the feel
ing of an approaching doom.
The losers’ final touchdown fol
lowed Johnny Yonaker’s intercep
tion on the Browns' 40. Leon
Heath scored on a 19-yard pass
play from Leßaron.
Carpenter, who returned kick
offs 28, 26 and 40 yards, and
scampered 38 and 20 yards with
two punts before going 55 yards
to score with a third, took the
succeeding kickoff to his own 36
to launch the Browns’ counter
attack. Jagade picked up 30 and
24 yards on two runs as Cleveland
moved to Washington’s 24, and
'Graham hit Mac Speedie, the
'league’s leading pass catcher, in
I the end zone.
Graham, who passed for two!
touchdowns and scored two him
!self, pushed over from the 1-foot
line to put the Browns ahead the
|next time they got the ball.
'Carpenter’s 38-yard punt return
'started this 29-yard drive.
The Browns went 69 yards for:
their next score at the start of the!
third period, Graham tossing a
37-yard pass to Dub Jones in the
end zone. Carpenter contributed
the next on his 55-yard punt re
turn, on which he shook hands
with at least six Redskins.
Graham’s pitchout to Jones,
who passed to Dave Lavelli in
the end zone, gave the Browns
their next six-pointer, and Otto
closed the day’s scoring with a
two-yard dash around left end.
This touchdown, however, was
preceded by the game’s most spec
tacular play, with Lavelli snagging
a pass at shoe-top level, after
Billy Cox apparently had knocked
it down on Washington’s two-yard
line.

Bach Claims Steelers
Could Be on Top With
Earlier Turn in Luck
By the Associated Press
PITTSBURGH, Dec. I.—With
just a little luck. Coach Joe Bach
says, the Pittsburgh Steelers would
be fighting for the championship
!of the National Football League
instead of being down near the
bottom of the American Confer
ence.
Bach, ordinarily a man of a few
words, had a lot of praise for his
Steelers after their 63-7 shellack
ing of the New York Giants yes
terday—but it did little else but
bolster their egos and all but
smash the title hopes of the
Giants.
Bach told a newsman that with
a few better breaks his team
could be in first place, not in fifth
with a 4-6 record. He based his
claim on the five games the
Steelers lost on a combined total
of 17 points. Two of these were
one-point defeats by the leading
Cleveland Browns.
The victory over the Giants was
the greatest point total in the
Steelers’ 20-year history.
Giants Lose Two Quarterbacks.
A factor in the Giants’ debacle
was the fact that Tom Landry,
one of the key backs in their “um
brella” defense, had to take over
as quarterback when Chuck Con
|erly and Fred Benners went out
!with injuries in the second quar
ter. Landry threw 25 passes and
completed only four for 108 yards.
1 “Can you imagine that,” Bach
I said after handing the New York
ers the worst defeat in their his
tory. “I guess when it rains, it
pours. But I’m the happiest coach
in the business right now.
"This is something that happens
once in a long, long time. It is
pretty hard to single out any in
dividual player, but if any credit
it due it should go to Chuck Cher
undolo (assistant coach) who
scouted the Giants for us. He did 1
an excellent job.
“Our first four touchdowns
came on breaks, but the next five;
were executed with precision. If
that had happened in our other
games, we would have an 8-1 rec
ord now and be sitting right on
top.”

“Sooner or later. I knew some- 1
thing like this was going to hap
pen. We have the best end in the
league in Elbie Nickel, and Ray
Mathews and Lynn Chandnois are
as good as any halfbacks around
today.”
“It was the craziest football
game I’ve ever played.” said Bill
Walsh, the Steelers’ center from
Notre Dame.
The Steelers’ touchdown parade
was the biggest rolled up since
Los Angeles thumped the old Bal
timore Colts, 70 to 27, in 1950.
The highest score in the league’s
history was run up by the Chi- f
cago Bears with a 73-0 rout over
the Washington Redskins in a!
memorable play-off game In 1940. j
Steve Owen, veteran Giant!
coach, had just this terse com
ment:
“That's the kind of league it is.
Anything can happen. The Steel-'
ers got all the breaks and took
Advantage of every one. And
that tells the story.”

way. Robinson. Negro second base
man of the Dodgers, accused offici
als of the Yankees of being preju
diced against members of his race.
Robinson made the charge on a
New York television quiz show.
George Weiss, general manager
of the Yankees, promptly issued
a heated denial. There is no Negro
player on the Yankees although
there are several in their farm
organization. “The facts do not
support Robinson’s charges,” said
Weiss. “We have had numerous
Negroes in our farm system and
we are constantly trying to find
a good one to bring up.”
Durocher, debonaire manager of
the New York Giants, said “base
ball is my business” upon arrival
here, squashing rumors he might
quit the game for a whirl at the
movies. “As long as I’m in baseball
I expect to manage the Giants,”
said Leo. “I have a contract for
1953 and I fully expect to live up
to it. I’ll be available as long as
the Giants want me.”
Timing of Duke Game Spoiled
Perfect Year, Cavaliers Claim
By Merrell Whittlesey
Virginia, which ended the sea
son huffing and puffing to beat
two not-very-good teams, Wash
ington and Lee and William and
Mary by a touchdown each, could
have had an unbeaten season if,
it had played Duke on another!
date, the Cavalier football rooters i
are saying.
As it is. Virginia finished with
eight victories and two defeats,
and for the last four years has
lost a total of only seven games,
not more than two in any season.
Art Guepe has coached Virginia
seven years. He brought a sem
blance of consistency to Virginia
football when he started beating
the bushes for linemen. Previous
ly Virginia had been noted for its
backs, but seldom bothered to
entice players who could block or
tackle.
Big Buildup for Duke.
This year the Cavaliers won
their first four games, and in the
first three scored 119 points
against none for Vanderbilt. VPI
and George Washington. They
were not scored on until the fourth
game when they beat VMI, 33-14.
Then came the big buildup for
the Duke game. Both were un
beaten, Duke having topped Ten
nessee among others, and it was
the game-of-the-day, not only in
the South but in the Nation. But
on that day Virginia was not up
to meeting a team of Duke's cali
ber. The Cavaliers were over
eager and lost, 21-7, with penalties
and fumbles greatly aiding the
Blue Devils.
The next week Virginia was
leading South Carolina, 14-0, ini
the last quarter and coasting
when lightning struck. The Game
cocks scored 21 points in two min
utes and handed Virginia its only
other loss of the season, 21-14.

Ed Molloy of Yale today for thc ;
key quarterback spot on the As

The competition between these
two passers provided the biggest
problem for coaches who joined
in selecting the two-platoon, 22-

over Molloy although the Yale!

Since the squad was chosen as;

of course, beat them aII—VMI,
VPI, Washington and Lee, Rich
mond and William and Mary. In
fact, in Guepe’s seven years at
Charlottesville, his teams have lost
only two games in the State, to
Richmond in 1946 and to Wash
ington and Lee last year.
But this probably will be the last
time Virginia plays all Big Six
members for many years. The
William ana Mary folks are puz
zled over Virginia’s schedule-mak
ing tactics because as yet the!
Indians are not on the. Virginia
schedule for next year, and ap
parently they won’t be.
A William and Mary spokesman
said after Saturday's game:|
“We’re holding three dates on our
schedule for them, and I know
our president has written theirs,
but apparently you’re going to
see Pitt and Penn State and:
schools like that in Charlottesville'
next year, but not William and;
Mary.”

Long-Range IV Policy
i
To Boost Grid Returns
Is Studied by NCAA
By *h« Associated Press
NEW YORK. Dec. I—The Na
tional Collegiate Athletic Associa
tion's Television Committee is
i preparing another restricted pro
gram for 1953 and is looking even
farther ahead to the time when
expanded TV will net millions in
stead of thousands in receipts.
The 10-man group continued in
session today, formulating a plan
to present to the NCAA national
convention in Washington Janu
ary 8-10.
Asa Bushnell, director of th«
1952 NCCA program, said the
committee is studying a long
range policy to deal with pressure
problems when subscription (pay
as-you-see) television comes into
juse.
When this day comes—whether
it be two years or five years—
Bushnell said, an institution
could reap million-dollar rewards
for one appearance—if not effec
tively checked.
One of the suggestions being
mulled over at a midtown hotel is
to assess the televised games
heavily and distribute money to
other colleges in the area, whose
receipts might have been hurt,by
TV, on a pro-rated formula.
The main idea is to see that
the rich don’t get richer and the
poor poorer, creating a “football
aristocracy,” as the TV Committee
sees it, of 10 or 12 top-ranking
teams.
Under the present program,
limiting football television to one
major game a week and one team
a season, the receipts, averaging
around SIOO,OOO a game, are split
between the competing schools,
minus a 12 per cent assessment
by the NCAA.
The NCAA television body is
certain to draw up another pro
gram of restricted television for
1953, despite growing complaints.
