Underdog Eskimos Enter Finals Witi Poor Showing

By DON HANRIGHT Canadian Preu Stuff Writer

EDMONTON (CF) - Edmonton Eskllllos will enter the Grey Cup 1: piobably the lowest western i-iinference underdogs in many a iiiimn. ,

Kskllllos. who clash with the powerful Montreal Alouettes in the national football final at Toronto Saturday. have enough injuries and -'lRllSIlCal flaws to warrant confl- dent betting from Big Four enthus-

3” in belllnl Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the 311 Four final: Saturday, Eskimo don't seem too promising as the team to return with the WIFU's first Grey Cup since 1948. Calizary Slampeders won it that year.

But Eskimo coach Frank (Pop) Ivy might have the last laugh. Most of the figures cover a period when the former Oklahoman was

charging his injury-plagued squad N

through modest use of the split-T, the club's most outstanding offen- sive feature.

ANOTHER SET

Ivy beams on his own sheet of the statistics. where it shows hiI club toppin gthe following depart.- ments: Times carried in'ruahing t575l: total y a r cl :4 g e rushing (3.ll9I: first downs rushing (169- a WIFU record); touchdowns (37- only 22 were scored agnint Ed- montonl; and corverts (37-a con- ference percentage record - with only M againstl. -

"The Eskimos have won every game this year they have abso- lutely had to win. The Grey Cup is such a game. They showed against Winnipeg they can play nutstnnding team football. 1 think they'll do it Saturday."

Permits Strasser To Return to tlerniaiiy

BONN, (AP)-The West. .German government announced today l.hlIL Ot-to Strnsser, one of Hitler": earl- iest followers. will be permitted to return to Gernuny.

In I special announcement, the government said the decision oft

the Supreme Court that Strn.s.ser' r

is entitled to full restoration to civil German rights has removed the last obstacle to his return home from Cnnndm He has been living for some years ct. Parndiise. . S.

The court overruled the federal. interior ministry which had re-4 Jected 8trnsser'a application for; citizenship on the grounds that his return to West Germany would in- volve : "risk to the constitution.”

Otto and his brother Gregor Strauer joined the Nazi party in 1925. Otto was a leading writer on the Volkischer Beobachter. news- paper of Nazi propaganda chief Paul Josef Goebbels. In 1930 the Strttuers broke with Hitler and founded the rival Black Front or- ganizntion.

When Hitler came to power. Otto fled to Canada and Gregor was killed in the 1934 purge. Hitler stripped Otto of his citizenship in 1933 for polltlcll offences against Nazi Germany. t
