"If they want to waste three blockers to get our placekicker it's perfectly le gal although not too smart,"' said Howell, who claimed the Eagles sent two and three men downfield to block Sum merall last Sunday. "But," Howell added point edly, "they must remember that Van Brocklin kicks, too." Howell again cleared Eagle linebacker Chuck Bednarik of any illegal "head hunting" on the tackle which stretched out Gifford, but he called on his own players to "be tougher." "We don't -want any ven detta but we're not going to be had," he said. "It just does not make sense to let the Eagles eat up our ball players."
