in MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Of. Sunday, Aug. 23, 1959 Redskins ;kk Rams in Pro Tilt Los Angeles -(CPD- Some 35.888 fans shook their heads about the long and short of the Redskins, little Eddie Le "Baron and big Johnny Ols zewski,, after they led Wash ington to a 23-21 triumph over the Los Angeles Rams in the annual charity exhibition game. The fans, who turned out to watch the Rams, and their two heralded additions, back Ollie Matson and Defender Gene Brito, in their season jdebut had little to cheer about jn the Coliseum last night. Despite the score, the Red skins dominated the ball and controlled the game most of the way. f It was two by land, with Olszewski carrying the ball, "and one by the air. LeBaron, .'who chalked up another sen sational night from the firing line, passed for the other Red- .skin touchdown. i The diminutive field gen eral passed 23 times, hitting Tiis receivers 15 times, good for 223 yards and the one ;score, a six-yard lob to half back Dick James. -5 The Washington offense iottled up Matson, the hard charging fullback obtained from the Chicago Cardinals Jby the Rams in a move to aid itheir chances for a Western division title. - Brito, himself a former Redskin, found the Washing ton offense to be shifty and ttough to cope with effectively from his position as lineback er The difference in score Ecame when Ralph Felton tack led Jon Arnett in the end -zone for a safety. That set the pattern for a ragged Ram of rfense and an ineffective de fense. : After Shofner caught a 42 "yard scoring pass from Wade late in the first period, Ols zewski scored for Washington. 5 Wade scored the final Ram TD when he sneaked across I from the one yard line and ;Dick James' score ended it for Washington. :Bob Ricks Keeps Record Intact Hoquiam - HTD - Schoolboy 3obby Hicks of Seattle kept his unbeaten record intact fhere Friday night by punch ing out a unamious decision '.over Zeke Lucero of Sacra mento in a 10-round outdoor - junior welterweight match here.

Covington Lost To Milwaukee Milwaukee Braves' hopes of catching up in the National League pennant race were dealt a serious blow with the loss of Wes Covington due to a torn ligament in his right ankle. Covington's ankle, at first thought to be only sprained, was put into a cast Friday. The Braves' regular left fielder turned the ankle slid ing into second base on a force J)lay during Thursday night's game with San Fran cisco. "This is a serious blow," said General Manager John McHale, whose defending champion Braves have been unable to climb back into first place after falling to third. "Covington is a fierce kind of hitter who can get hot and carry your whole club along." Although hitting only .279 and. having trouble at the plate, Covington was just be ginning to show signs of com ing out of it wheii he was hurt. The injury had a two-fold effect, in that it cut the Braves to 24 men because the team's disabled roster is filled. After Sept. 1 when the 25-man player limit is lifted, the Braves will be able to call rp another outfielder from the minors, McHale said.

Coach Red Hickey said he would give John Brodie the starting call at quarterback for "San Francisco. He said the former Stanford ace, a third year man, would go the route, barring a mishap.

S. The 142-pound satellite or bits the earth from 150 miles at its lowest point to some 25, 000 miles at its farthest, com pleting one revolution in 12.5 hours. This highly elliptical flight path means that, the satellite's instruments will cover a larger volume of space near "earth for a longer time than any previous satel lite. Maps Radiation Belt Scientifically, probably the most interesting information to be radioed back from space during its predicted lifetime of at least one year will come from the three devices con tained in the satellite to map the radiation belt ringing the earth. Each of these instru ments concentrates on record ing a spicific radiation ener gy level. From their tele metered readings scientists' should be able to determine exactly . how dangerous the earth's natural radiation belts will be for future space trav elers. For space probes and trips to the moon and planets, per formance of some of the tech nical equipment included for the first time in a satellite will also be of great interest. Of particular importance is the efficient operation of the 8,000 solar cells carried on its "paddle wheels" to convert the sun's energy into elec tricity for recharging the sat ellite's chemical batteries in flight. The electronic gear in the satellite run by the bat teries, besides the scientific equipment, includes three transmitters and two receiv ers.

The space data thus transmitted earth ward are much easier to han dle and much more rapidly available than when the in formation is sent in analogue form. One light-weight device in the satellite measures its vel ocity in orbit. This will allow scientists, for the first time, to determine if a change in course is necessary. The sat ellite has at its center a five pound, solid propellanf "kick" rocket that can be used to lengthen its lifetime by lift ing its perigee point if neces sary. Peeping out one side of "the pay load is a small open lens that it is hoped will give the first TV-like picture of the earth from space. Other- experiments include a micrometeorite detector to gauge the sizeand speed of meteoric particles hitting the satellite, two types of magne tometers to map the earth's magnetic field, and four meth ods for studying the behavior of radio waves.
