By GORDON RICE Emerald Sports Editor . 11 s ,lot very often that the nations number one passer is in danger of losing his starting assignment ujiilc still lead ing tin- nation, but that's exactly the situation at the Uni versity of Washington. JOHNNY CliKKBKlMi 'I'«hi .Many <fuart<rt»u<kw yuartcruack Mindy Leder nian, who lias completed 33 passes for .VX) yards in two panics so far this year, is cur rently engaged in a red-hot battle with Sophomore Hob Cox for the starting 'pot. Cox, who was a sensation as a freshman last year, alternat ed with Ledcrman last week end against Michigan and di rected the only sustained drive that the Huskies put on all afternoon. Cox hasn't run up the im pressive completion and yard age totals that Ledcrman has, J but lie hasn't yet had the op ^ portunity or the experience that Ledcrman received last J year on the varsity. Ledcrman "ill probably start against Oregon State Saturday in J ortland, but tlie* Washington coaches plan to alternate the two throughout the game, just as they did against Michigan. Coach Johnny .Chcrberg feels that the two rpiarterbacks call for a different type of ball game,, and that the change in style from one signal-caller to another tends to make the job tougher for the opponent’s defense. No matter who Cher berg decides to start, it’s a decision any other coach in the conference would love to have to make.
