Villanova Races Past Xavier 16-8 VILLANOVA, Pa. (AP) Vil-lanova scored two quick touchdowns in the second quarter Saturday on an 18-yard pass from Richie Richman to Jack Clifford By Associated Press The rags-to-riches saga of the Washington Redskins plays its next performance today only a half hour from Broadway when the storybook 'Skins face the powerful New York Giants in the prettier offering on the National Football League schedule. Coach Bill McPeak's amazing team, which he had labeled desire, leads the Eastern Conference with four victories and two ties and a 1.000 percentage. The Giants, going for a second straight Eastern Title and fourth in five years, are second with a 4-2 mark.

Regardless of the outcome, Washington will not lose first place, an incredible achievement for a team relegated to the depths of the Eastern Conference before the season. Instead it has not been out of first place during the first half of the campaign. Green Bay'a Western conference Packers put a 14-game winning streak on the line in Baltimore while the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears, both 4-2, slug it out for second place in the west in Detroit. In other NFL games, the St. Louis Cardinals play in Dallas, Cleveland is at Pittsburgh, winless Los Angeles travels to San Francisco and Philadelphia visits the Minnesota Vikings.

In the American League, San Diego is at New York. Dallas plays Houston and Buffalo is at Denver. The game at New York's Yankee Stadium is a sellout, where Washington's last appearance in 1961 ended in an ignominious 53-0 loss. In fact, the 'Skins haven't beaten the Giants since 1957- but that was before the days of Norm Snead, Bobby Mitchell, and a new outlook on life. However, Snead, the brilliant soph quarterback from Wake Forest who is the league's third-ranked passer, probably has not faced a defense as physically strong as the Giants.

Against six other teams, he's completed 84 of 142 passes for 1,334 yards and 10 touchdowns. Green Bay's Paul Hornung, the NFL's three-time scoring leader, may miss his second consecutive game because of a knee injury. Tom Moore will replace him at halfback and guard Jerry Kramer will take care of the kicking chores. Otherwise, the Packers (6-0) are in top shape. The Colts (3-3) must win or drop ouof a western rafe that is rapidly developing into a run-away.
