The Springfield Daily Republican from Springfield, Massachusetts (2024)

FEBRUARY 21, 1940 15 THE SPRINGFIELD DAILY REPUBLICAN, SPRINGFIELD, WEDNESDAY, LIVELY SCHOOLBOY AND COLLEGE CAGE ATTRACTIONS ARE ON TAP FOR FANS Cathedral at Commerce Seeking Local Title Parochial Five Needs Win or Loss by Tech to Trade, Also This Afternoon, to Take City Title- -Northampton-Holyoke in Second Place Valley Game This Afternoon at 3.15, Cathedral Rich will gO after the first of two schoolboy league crowns it speks. when it invades the Commerce High gym in the tinal game of its Springfield loop campaign. .1 victory is needed to salt away the second straight city hoop championship and the second straight major title won tremults, public the football school last rivals, fall. followwhile Cathedral is facing the Crimson Raider, Technical High will be 11 against Trade in the Tiger gym, with the Orange and Black needing victory to tie the parochial schonl. should the latter fall before Commerce.

at Holyoke The interest in this league holds forth, though there are many other games dotting the schoolboy slate. St Mary's and Westfield meet in the ond same of their annual series with the Red and Black Bombers expected to capture their 19th successive win of the season. Northampton and lolyoke collide in the Paper city armory as clubs battle for second place in the Valley league. There is one scuffle in the Parochial league, of no importance to the leaders, and two games in the Northern Berkshire loop. neither of which has an important bearing.

Sacred Heart and Rosary are the fives meeting in the Catholic circuit, while Williams. town plays at Adams and Dalton goes to Drury in the northern circuit. One Valley Wheel assignment, which rings for Palmer Monson. down the curtaine 01 this loop, calls Commerce holds a distinct threat to the Purple Panther, for the Crimson Maiders' gym has been notoriously fitmous for the all luck it carries to title -bound teanis. On paper the! P'arochial school appears to have the edge in ability.

yet many a 200d teamn has met mistortune in the upper State-street school. Coach Relyen's charges have no chance for the crown. but they can finish the local league in a tie for second if Trade takes Tech, so with this hope the Crimson will do its utmost to take Cathedral. Billy Wise's hoys will win handily if they play the same sort of game they did last Friday night in licking Classical High. The Purple will line up the same way, anyway, with Bob Connelly and John Moriarty in the forward berths, William Martin at center with Daniel McCarthy and Peter Lamana, guards.

Face Beaver Jinx Commerce knows it must check Cathedral's guards as well as its wards for both McCarthy and have been scoring heavily of late. To check Cathedral, Coach Relyea is expected to start a team consisting of Ken Connors and Herb Cowles, forwards: William Harrington, center: Robert Dennis and Robert Dinnie, guards. Game time is 3.15. its game with Trade. The Reavers Tech isn't going to have it easy lol have always had a hahit of making it very lively for Tech in any sport.

It was true in the last meeting of these clubs when the Blue and Gold took the Tiger into camp in An overtime tussle. Trade hasn't been going any 100 well of late either, and inasmuch AS today is its final game, it hopes to wind up the season with a triumph. The Tigers will have to check Kwajewski very carofully, for this boy is apt to run wild. Ed Dohecki and Walter Dzwilewski are still other threats In the Beaver camp. Michael Guz and Dick Zanetti will complete Trade's starting lineup.

Tech will probably start with Pete Baevich and Norman Black as forwards, Al Nyand Emett Smith in the backcourt. A man at center with Robert Doane loss for Tech will eliminate it from a chance of tieing Cathedral, should the Purple lose to Commerce. Westfield High is not expected to experience much difficulty in downing St Mary's. It romped to an easy win in their first meeting. Coach Stiles has too much hight.

reserve power and ability for the Saints to cope with. But needless to say, Coach Houlihan's will he giving everything they have. Wouldn't they just to be tho team to spoil the Bombers' hopes of an undefcated season? G. S. JERVIS SPENCER, JR.

1940, THE OLD. QUAKER COMPANY, LAWRENCEBURG, INDIANA DE CORREVONT HAS TIME, MAY STOP POUTING AND STAR Crack Carrier Still Has Two Ycars of Football to Prove Self New York, Feb. 20-(AP) --Bill DeCorrevont's ill-advised airing of his inner thoughts concerning football situation at Northwestern university has left him 011 an uncomfortable spot, and his statement that he came within a couple of telephone calls of transferring to Southern California has hrought only the response, "Well, why didn't he?" However, it is not transfer clause which will cause the most embarrassment. He would not have been the first athlete who switched schools. In fact.

there have been tramp athletes who moved around sO often they tackled in freshman English six times. It is the 'criticism of the coaching system that creates the sore spot, and Lynn Waldorf's willingness to forgive and forget is a tribute to his understanding of youth and its tendency to blow its top. Many 3 thinskinned tutor, after reading that one of his pupils had declared the team's offense was not offensive. would have invited the critic to make himself absent henceforth. 'The right of at football player to his own thoughts cannot be denied, but when a sophom*ore takes it upon himself to openly criticize the teaching of A conch of Waldorf's acknowlown neck.

We watched Waldorf's edged ability he is sticking out. his championship team functioning when he WAS at Kansas State and, if that team lacked A tricky offense when in scoring territory, it was obtaining touchdowns under false pretenses. Since last fall there has been rilmors that all was not well with DeCorrevont and the Wildcats, rumors that. his teammates were disgruntled over the publicity the ex-high school wizard received. that when he carried the ball he was forced to run his own interference.

All such intimations were denied. The kids 011 3 football team are too anxious to win to let personal differences interfere. and. from all we could gather. DeCorrevont is a likable lad who was unfortunate enough to he SO good in high school he was swamped in a sea of nuhlicity.

That publicity is the core of all the trouble. Because he was DeCorrevont, the boy wonder, he was watched with hawklike eves. Undoubtedly he developed a pretty fair opinion of his own ability. If you're told you're good often enough, you begin to believe there's something to it. When, for reasons known only to Waldorf and his staff.

the boy didn't sce as much service as expected, there was to be talk that the high school hero was just a college headache. Naturally that would cause the resentment of a hoy who was doing his best. DeCorrevont held himself in check nicely throughout the season, and it was a dissatisfied disappointment with to the read way things were going. and that he had the pins into the coaching staff. An added disappointment was the indication that he considered his foothall career of more importance than his quest for education.

However, ho's just A kid. to whom football all right now is of more importance than making a living 10 years from now. He didn't measure up 10 the expectations last fall. and it hurt. He popped off.

and he's sorry, and Waldorf is man enough to forget it. Victor League VICTOR, ALLEY South F. A Albano 97-91-NT. Russo 64-113-73. Tranghese 87-80- Serra Totals J.

JOE JUDGE AGAIN COACH OF GEORGETOWN NINE Washington, Feb. 20- (AP) -Joe famous first baseman and teammate of Walter Johnson on the old Washington Senators, today signed a new two-year contract to coach Georgetown's baseball nine.

HENDERSON TO COACH OCCIDENTAL GRID TEAM Los Angeles, Fob. 20-(AF) C. Gus Henderson, nationally known football coach who coached the Detroit Lions in 1939. will take charge of the grid sport at Occidental college, one of the oldest schools in the West. next fall.

Occidental. which has A atudent body of some 750 and is A member of the Southern California conference, WAS founded 52 vears ago. Foothall first we was introduced there in 1893. IN CHARITY GRID GAME Los Angeles, Feb. 20-(AP)-larry Smith.

University of Southern California's all- America guard. said tonight he had accepted an invitation from Arch Ward. Chicago sports writer, to play with the All-Collegiate eleven against the I'rofessionals this summer. By FRANCIS FEIGHERY The 1939-40 season in the Western Massachusetts Rowling league. top circuit in this section, is rapidly fading.

Only five more weeks of pinspilling remain and then the league pin-busters will hang up their togs and shoes to await the opening of the 1910-1941 campaign. At the present writing the Broadway quintet of this city, which has been leading the circuit almost since the current season started. is a cinch to walk off with the championship and successfully defend their 1938-1939 honors. The second-place Corner Cafe pinners of North Adams are still in the running for the uppermost laurels, hut their chances are mighty slim. The results of Friday night's matches will probably tell the real story as the Broadways need only to win two or three points while the Cafemen drop the same to con the championship.

Second P'lace Rattle Should the Broadways lose all of their remaining 15 strings, which is possible but not probable and the North Adams tribe capture all of their final 15 points, then the Berkshire County pinners would grab off the championship by the margin of there strings over the City of Homes maplecrashers. Present standing of the teams list the Broadways with 51 points won and 10 lost. The Corner Cafe rollers have a record of 42 strings won and 27 dropped. The real battle in progress in the league at the current writing is the one for second place money between the Corner Cafe. Rockingham and Hub Restaurant of Pittsfield.

glance over the standings reveals the Berkshire County bowlers occupy ing a second position. just four points ahead of the third-place Rocking hams and seven strings in front of the fourth flub Restaurant pintopplers. The Rockies lead the Pittsfield pinners by three points. Northampton, Parkview Restaurant of Westfield. North- Ends and Chateau quintet the City of in fifth, sixth and seventh positions, respectively, the latter two clubs being clubs, along with Rockies and stalemated in the collar berth.

These Hub Restaurant are definitely out of the struggle for the 1939-10 championship. The Broadways and the Corner Cafe rollers should have no trouble in reglistering tWO or three point triumphs in this week's matches. Friday's slate calls for the league-leaders to pin against the Northampton entry on the Broadway alleys. This match should be a breeze for the locals. The Corner Cafe rollers entertain the hapless last place Chateau five on the Casino drives, located in North Adams.
