Walker Back in Lion Lineup

DETROIT December 12 Doak Walker returns to the Detroit Lions starting backfield for the final 1952 NFL game against the Dallas Texans. Walker, SMU star and 225 point scorer, has been sidelined by a leg injury but is slated to start at left halfback amid an uncertain race for first place in the NFL National Conference. The Lions, favored heavily, must also await results from a Rams vs Steelers West Coast game to resolve the standings. Walker’s return follows Jug Girard’s knee setback, with Doak’s performance hoped to spark a late push. The game may draw a small crowd and will not be telecast locally.
