Colts’ chances of landing Bobby
Layne, Texas’ fabulous parser,
was enhanced by Chicago signing
Johnny Lujack, the Notre Dame

“That gives the Bears four good
quarterbacks,” Beehtol figures, and
Bobby probably knows he would
be buried far down among the
subs on a club with all that talent
at his position.”
Layne, said Beehtol, would be
about the only eonviijicer he would
need to return to the Colts; next
