L. GAME OX T. V. Kickoff time is 2 05 and a crowd of 35.000 is expected The game will be televised ia New York over the CBS network. It will be broadcast over WINS.

The League-leading Giants will be facing a team which has toppled unbeaten elevens on each of the previous two Sundays. The Red skins, after dropping their first three games, upended the Cleveland Browns, then handed initial defeats to the Chicago Cardinals and the Detroit Lions. The Giants' scouting reports show the Redskins to be tough on de-i fense. Their potent offense is bol-l stered by halfback Sam Baker who has already booted 10 field goals in II attempts. The Giants, leading the Eastern Division, have a six and one rec ord The Redskins have played one less game.

Their record is three and three. After being handicapped by injuries early in the season, they have come on strongly. The Lions and Bears of Chicago, co-leaders in the Western Division, don't have it as tough. Both will be at home, the Lions taking on third place Baltimore and the Bears meeting fifth place Los Angeles. The Cardinals, one game behind the Giants with a 5-2 record, also don't figure to have loo bad a time of it.

They will meet the last place Steelcrs at Pittsburgh. In other games. Cleveland travels to Philadelphia and Green Bay is host to San Francisco. TWO DEFINITELY OUT Of the four Giants now on the hospital list, at least two will not see action against the Redskins. They are Herb Rich, who underwent an operation for torn ankle ligaments: and Bill Svoboda.

who suffered a gash above and below the left eye that required 1 stitches. Guards Dick Modzelowski and Jack Stroud, sidelined by a bad back and knee, respectively, may see limited action The Redskins won't go into the game at full strength either. Joe Scudero. their safety man, is out with a bad leg and Bill James is a doubtful starter. Again the Giants will rely on halfbacks Frank Gifford and Alex Webster and the passing of quarterback Charley Conerly.

Mel Trip-left is the fullback. Don Heinrich. as usual, will start the game at quarterback. He led the way to the Giants first touchdown Sunday, passing the final 6 yards to Ken MacAfee, then watched while Conerly added two more TDs. Gifford.

having his greatest season as a pro, is third in the League in ball carrying with 91 attempts good for 508 yards and a. 6 average. He also is second as a pass receiver with 31 receptions good for 419 yards. He has made four touchdowns, eight extra points and a field goal, for 3n points. As a team, the Giants lead the East in scoring and are second to the Cardinals in points allowed 102 to 100.

The Giants' defensive line has limited the opposition to a mere 3.5 yards per rush average Pittsburgh, as hard hit by in juries as any club in the league will give defensive Henry Ford his first starting assignment on of fense against the Cardinals. An in jury to Sid Watson necessitated this drastic move. Watson had re placed Lynn Chandnois who is sidelined for the season with a broken shoulder. The defense-minded Lions are physically fit as are the power-laden Bears and the hard-luck Rams. Los Angeles had given up only seven more points than it has scored 163 to 156 but has been able to win only two while losing five.
