An English teacher at Manual, Kimmel was so overwhelmned by the tributes paid him that he needed six languages to express his gratitude. He quoted from French, Latin, German and Spanish in addition to Greek. He said he looked forward to coaching a team- in heaven composed of the boys who have played for him at Manual. Asked To Serve He said he took the job at Manual 20 years ago when the coachless players on the team asked him to handle them. "I received $100, but I would have done it for nothing," he said.

The Manual Alumni Association presented him a wardrobe trunk, one of a number of gifts Destowea upon him.v "I hope there's nothing significant to the gift," he said. "So far as I'm concerned, I'm not going anywhere. I intend-to remain at the same old stand as Ion gas I can take as many laps around the field as the boys and still have the hop on my fast ball." Honored for Work The other speakers paid tribute to Kimmel for his unselfish work with boys, honoring him for the contribution he has made to youth in a job that brought 1 little self glory and little financial reward. Gabe Paul, general manager of the Cincinnati Reds, thanked Kimmel for his good moral influence on the boys he's coached. Other speakers were Bruce Dudley, president of the American Association; Pee "Wee Reese, captain of the Brooklyn Dodgers and one of Kimmel's old players; Wathen Knebelkamp, whose father formerly owned the Louisville Colonels and who now is chairman of the State Racing Commission; Arthur J.

Ries, principal of Manual; Bill Moore, superintendent of recreation who represented Mayor Farnsley; Ned Booker, captain of Kimmel's first Manual team 1932); E. P. White, president of the Manual Alumni Association; and Fred E. Grimm, general chairman of the event. Telegrams Received Ed Doherty, president of the Colonels, served as toastmaster.

The Rev. H. Sheppard Musson delivered the invocation. Among the congratulatory telegrams was one from Bob Carpenter, owner of the Philadelphia Philhes for whom Kimmel is a scout, and from Gov. Lawrence Wetherby.

In addition to gifts, Kimmel received a key to the city, pre-cented by Moore, and a Kentucky colonelcy, presented for Governor Wetherby by Doherty. More than 100 of Kimmel's former players in addition to members of Manual's team the coming season were at the dinner.

He wrote the Sugar Bowl, just like a grown up, asking for the tickets. Stewart pleased Sugar Bowl Manager Fred Digby when he wrote he was willing to wait until 2000 A.D. just to see a Sugar Bowl game. Digby quickly ruled that Stewart should get two good tickets for the Tennessee-Maryland game.

This was a masterpiece of understatement.

The Wildcats played one of the greatest games ever seen in Lexington. The Wildcats, as a whole, dominated both boards completely, particularly the defensive goal. Kentucky took 63 rebounds while St. John's got less than half that, 31. Appear Jittery They took command at the very outset.

Both teams appeared to be on the jittery side early in the game. Solly Walker, the first Negro to play on a U.K. basketball floor and who turned in the best performance for St. John's, put the visitors ahead 2-0, It wasn't until after almost three rninutes of play that Kentucky could score. Watson hit a set-shot to tie it up.2-2.

Hagan sank a free throw and then the mighty Hagan went to work. He hit on a tip shot, a spin shot and then a follow. Thus, Kentucky spurted to a 9-2 lead. Now Kentucky was beginning to get hot. St.

John's, meanwhile. was cold as an iceberg. So, after 10 minutes Kentucky had a 17-8 lead. This was built up to a comfortable 39-19 lead at the end of the first half. In the third quarter, Kentucky ripped things wide open.
