Bill Wade Faces-Jury Los Angeles (UPD The jury that's been 'out on quar terback Bill Wade since he took over as head man of the Rams comes in tonight when the Los Angeles team meets the New York Giants in the Coliseum. Wade did everything but lime the field last Saturday in sparking the Rams to a 31- 10 victory over the Washing ton Redskins in the local club's first exhibition game. But despite the fact that Wade passed for two touch downs, ran for another and picked up 65 yards in six car ries, many felt the Redskin line did not rush the former Vanderbilt star hard enough for a test.- The Rams, favored by three points, feel that the Giants will be the real test. They have one of the roughest de fensive lines in the National Football league with the likes of Andy Robustelli, Jim Kat cavage, Sam Huff and Dick Modzelweski. Last week the tough New Yorkers whipped the San Francisco Forty Niners 19-10 mostly on their defensive play. The Giants blocked two kicks and intercepted two passes.
