Gilmer Turns Pro »
WASHINGTON, Jan. l9__(uP)
—Harry Gilmer, Alabama’s sling,
shot-armed quarterback who led
the Crimson Tide to three post
season bowl games during his col
lege playing days, has signed a
twoyear contract to play with the
Washington Redskins, owner
George Marshall announced today.
Gilmer’s signing, which took
place last night after a conference
with Marshall and Redskin Coach
Turk Edwards, confirmed a United
Press report immediately after Al
abama’s Sugar Bowl game with
Texas, New Year’s day, that he
had agreed to turn professional
with Washington.
The terms of. the contract were
not disclosed, but it was believed
that Gilmer received much less
than the $20,000-a-year salary he
originally had demanded in a five
year, $100,000 agreement.
The only English word that de
notes a unit of speed is knot,
whose meaning covers time as
well as distance.
